Cities Change Names

During the five-year period of 1921
to 1925, SO cities in this country
changed their names for one reason
or another. Generally speaking. it was
done for the purpose of avoiding con-
fusion resulting from the existence of
several cities with the same name, and
in other instances it was for the pur-
pose of simplifying the name. The
duplication of city names presents a
serious problem. In the postal guide
there are 81 Franklins, 81 Madisons,
% Clevelands, "a Monroes, % Wilson's,
10 Roosevelts, 10 Adams, IL Tafts and
5 Hardings. In such cases business
firms in these towns are often sub
jected to great annoyance and delay
by their mail going to the wrong town

Looks for Increases
in Pearl Production

Rising prices for pearls and enlarged
production in the pearl diving industry
are expected to bring total pearl pro-
duction Of about 100000 francs dur
ing 1925, according to adyices to the
Commerce department from Phineas
Haskewitch, one of the large pearl
buyers in French Oceania.
Pearl diving is hazardous business,
Mr.. Haskewitch said, and its results
difficult to approximate. The esti-
mated production of 1920 tons Of shell
for this year is expected to produce
about $50 pearls, with a present aver
age price of 1000 francs. A good pearl
ordinarily appears for every 5000
pairs of pearl shells.
Pearls are found in waters where
coral polyps make their home, Mr.
Haskewitch explained, the appearance
of coral being usually accepted as fore
casting the appearance Of pearl oys-
tiers.

Small Boys Criticism,
Finds Echo in Europe

Foreign policies were under discus
sion when George Wilmarth, the noted
war correspondent, remarked:
There is no question but what Eu-
ropean rule has greatly benefited east
ern principalities in countless ways,
but divisions of territory are none the
less irksome.
Most of the princelings find them
selves in the position of the small boy
who had been instructed by his mother
not to ask for a second piece of cake.
Johnny eyed his empty plate wistfully
and then said:
Mother, you is fine cake baker
Then, when his mother did not take
the hint, he added: But you 'clined
to cut the pieces too small"

Mutually Tired

John Paul Ragsdale, Jr., five years
old, is a winsome youngster. quite
popular with the juvenile colony of
Whittier place. Only occasionally
does John Paul transgress the laws
laid down by his mother, but recently
he happened to "get in bad" and it
was necessary to administer a lecture
or two.
The last one was at the dinner table
where John Paul was listening polite
ly to his mothers advice. Finally she
said: "Now, John Paul, l am getting
mighty tired of giving these lectures,
mighty tired"
John Paul promptly replied: Yes,
mother; and I'm mighty tired of being
the audience" -Indianapolis News

In confirmation of his statements,
he cites the case of Buxton Junior who
had the night before been to a dance,
and who did not get home until it was
almost time for Buxton himself to
arise and address himself to the wan
ing fires in the furnace. The dance
had been at town sixty miles away,
and the distance had been negotiated,
as they say in the newspapers, in the
family car which, when stepped on
properly, will do that distance in some-
thing less than an hour if the road is
clear. Buxton has himself frequently
demonstrated this fact in his own
driving.

night and had then driven home 1t

WILD RUMORS THAT
STIRRED UP PANIC

Since his death, Lenin is growing in
size and stature. A German paper re-
ports that in some peasant districts
his name is pronounced with the ven
Grafton of saint and remarks that
such legends as are being interviewer
with the name of Lenin could only
originate on Russian soil We find
that under the glare of Prussian en-
lightment of this century strange
legends sprung up in Germany. AS
for instance this case In 1895 the
Anthropological society Of western
Prussia instituted series of inves-
LEGATIONS, in the course of which the
complexion and the color of the hair
and eyes of the children at the pub
lie schools were To be noted, in order
to determine the Prevalence of certain
racial traits. The most extravagant
rumors circulated in the districts of
Dantzic, Thorn, Kuhn, all the way to
Posen. Parents, seized by unreason-
ing terror, sent their children in great
numbers to Russia. One rumor said
that the king of Prussia had lost 1000
fblond children to the sultan over a
game of cards; another, that the
RUSSIAN government had sold 10000
pretty girls to an Arab prince, and to
save them from the sad fate conjec-
I tured to be in store for them, all the
