what the nickname does for names.
1t is a parody. a carIcature. We usual
ly enjoy 1t as we enjoy comedy OF
the cheaper sort. Those who pride
themselves on their meticulous choice
of words are shocked by slang and look
upon it as the earmark Of vulgarity
and illiteracy. These are the same
people who have no use for Jazz music.
The real objection to slang is that
it impoverishes the user in the express
sion of the more delicate and exact
mechanisms of his thought. Dope"
for example. may mean anything from
a narcotic drug to insight. information,
skill, ETC.. as Illustrated by the express
sion, Get the dope on this" or What's
the dope?"
CareleSsness and siovenly habits
should not be omitted as motives for
the use of slang. Perhaps some who
refrain from slang are careful to avoid
reputation for being SlipShod.
The illiterate person uses slang be-
cause he doesn't know better. Some
cultured people have a horror for
slang and never use it. The great
majority Of us get little relaxation

One may convert term insurance into

Term insurance Is sometimes taken
out by elderly persons who have neg

that much money wasted.
Only those persons who can pass the
usual physical examination for life in

There is this qualification. however,
persons with minor infirmities may be-
granted term insurance in limited
amounts, but they are rated up" That
is, they pay higher than ordinary rate
for their insurance.

Everyday Law Cases
Is Carrier Liable for Delay in
Transporting Passenger?
RY THE COUNSELLOR.
BY THE COUNSELLOR.

Henry Black hired a taxicab to take
him to neighboring city. Midway the
cab broke down and Black was delayed
two hours before the machine resumed
its journey. BY the delay Black missed
a business engagement and was, there
fore, compelled to prolong his stay in
the city.
To recover damages for the incon-
venience he had suffered and the addi-
tional expense he had incurred by rea-
son of the delay Black instituted suit,
alleging that the cab company was liable
for not transporting him in time. At
the trial of the case, Black proved that
the breakdown of the cab had been due
to the company's negligence.
Black was able to obtain verdict in
his favor, in accordance with the fol-
lowing rule:
1T is the duty of common carrier
to exercise ordinary care and skill to
carry a passenger to his destination
within q reasonable time, and hence the
carrier Is liable for damages arising
from an unreasonable delay occasioned
by the fault or negligence Of the en-
ployeS in charge of the carriers busi-
ness. The damages awarded for the
delay include ordinarily a reasonable
sum for loss of time, necessary expenses
incurred, and fair compensation for the
trouble and inconvenience suffered"

Text: There was a little city, and a
few men within it; and there came a
great king against it, and besieged it.
and built great bulwarks against it
Now there was found in it a poor wise
man, and he by his wisdom delivered
the city; yet no man remembered that
same poor man."-Ecc. ix.14-15.
An imperiled city saved through the
leadership Of certain wise man, who
received neither recognition nor reward
Tor the service he rendered, but in
stead was soon forgotten. Such is the
story the text reciteS.
How many such stories could be re-
cited may never be known The world
is full of men and women like this
poor wise man in the text, men and
women of rare wisdom who have made
worthwhile contributions to their COM
munitieS, but whose services have never
been recognized or rewarded. If we
had some way of finding out, we would
be surprised and amazed at how much
the world owes to such people.
1t is not to the best known and the
most highly rewarded that the world
is most indebted. History is radiant
with many illuStriouS names, but We
are more indebted to the countless for
gotten names than to these names his
tory preserves.
You may be like the wise man in
the text. You may be one of these
unrecognized, unremembered servants

The tendency to bizarre decoration
has to be guarded against by those
who cannot have rooms done over fire.
Quently. It is important to remember
this now, for there is much decoration
OF an extreme type being done. This
is found in pronounced color schemes
for interiors in ultra -modernistic furni-
ture, in weird wall treatments and odd
floor coverings, though not SO much in
the last item as in the others.
The bizarre decoration is a natural
reaction from the ultra conservative
style that has been in vogue. Color
was quelled, wall paper was plain and
floor coverings in fiat solid hues. To
branch out from such schemes was con-
Sidered poor taste. It was not Surpris-
ing that a certain monotony crept into
interiors, and a drab element pre-
vailed. Gradually skilled decorators
began to strike a new note in color,
form and arrangements, and since they
were so different, the novel harmonieS
at first created sensations, and then
grew into a fashion.
It is one thing, however, to intro
duce such extreme decoration as is
now so prevalent, and have it done by
q person who knows correct technique,
and quite another matter to try to
introduce such schemes without previ-
Gus training and experience The
novice can expect little success in the
Use of brilliant tones and oddly shaped
furniture, etc. Therefore, the wise
home decorator branches out carefully,
for quiet conservative scheme is far
more pleasing than an ultra one poorly
handled. Know the styles and keep up
with them, but do not venture far at
first

"Term Insurance" "

Term insurance is the kind that COW
ers you or your husband for a specified
term of years. You may be the bread
winner of your family, for example, and
your children may be quite young. Per-
haps the average time between their age
now and their age Of employment will
be 10 years. You wish to protect them
from want should you be taken off.
Naturally in such case you would take
out term insurance.
Term insurance protects your children
for the 10 years you are insured. 1t
affords the maximum insurance at the
minimum price.
1t is just as possible that your hus-
band may find term insurance desirable
some day. If he is taken from you be-
fore a mortgage is paid, his regular in
surance may not cover that need. In
such an instance term insurance pro-
tects both the mortgages and life in
surance at the least cost.
Every man cannot afford to take out
enough insurance of this kind to pay a
mortgage in full, but If mortgage is
substantially reduced, its carrying

The Loose Wave.

Hair being much longer now, the
great question is whether it is to be

One of the objections raised by the
