Most Of US know from our
own limited experience that
thinking is hard, and we have
insulated ourselves against 1t
by restless and noisy environ
ment.
We have telephones to ring
and interrupt us. We have
Stenographers to whom we can
repeat, yours received and
contents noted" and the other
routine formula of business Life.
We have visitors, and luncheon
engagements, and everything.
We are afraid to be found in
small audience, terribly afraid
to be alone. Our unwillingness
to take trips, or to retire, is not
dictated so much by loyalty to
the job as it Is by the haunt
ing fear that, removed from
the protecting clatter of daily
activity, we shall have too
much time to think"

Robert Stewart, dean of the College
of Agriculture of Nevada University
pointed out in an important paper In

the farms of America are producing

Mighty Title Borne by
MANY Unworthy Rulers

Caesar was title assumed by Octa-
vianus, adopted son Of the great die
tator, Julius Caesar, and was by him
handed down to his adopted son, I'll
berius. 1t continued to be used by
Caligula, Claudius and Nero as MEM
bers, either by adoption or female de-
scent of Caesars family; but though
the family became extinct with Nero.
succeeding emperors still retained the
name as part of their title, and 1t was
the practice to prefix it to their own
names, as Imperator Caesar, Domiti-
anus Augustus. When Hadrian adopt.
Aelius Verus, he allowed the latter to
take the title Of Caesar, and from this
time, though the title Augustus con-
tinued to be confined to the reigning
emperor, that of Caesar was also
granted the second person in the state
and the heir presumptive to the throne.
After the death of Nero, his name was
adopted as kingly title by succeed
ing Roman emperors. This practice
continued, and the same title was used
in modern times, as in the case of
kaiser and czar.

Bathtub Frowned On by
People of Middle Ages

It was the boast Of Queen Isabella
Of Spain that she had had but two
baths, one when she was born and
one when she was married. But alas,
the poor queen, who befriended Col
umbus, according to legend, was given
another after her death. in preparation
for her burial. The children Of Ed
ward I Of England were given baths
on certain religious holidays; they av-
eraged four year. No wonder Vol
taire characterized the Middle ages as
"A Thousand Years Without a Bath"
From the famous Roman baths came
much of the rottenness Of the decay
ing empire, but 1t Is question Of
debate whether or not there was a
reason for this, or a mere coincidence.
When the Barbarians entered Rome,
in the reign of feeble Romulus Angus
tulus. they found him in the baths,
sad Caesar compared to the hardy
julius of an early and sterner day.
Bathing was considered so much a
sin in early Christian days that the
first Pope Gregory had to issue de-
cree to permit communicates to take
baths. The decree permitted them to
a moderate extent, and only on Sun
days-Exchange.

Source of Fabled River
Styx Merely Waterfall

Solos, a village on the slopes of
Mount Helmos, not far from Akrata
in the division Of southern Greece
known as Achae, is near the supposed
site of the tabled River Styx. In
Greek mythology the Styx is a mighty
river, the tenth part of the water of
Oceanus, which flows in the lower
world. 1t is described by Homer and
Hesiod as the terrible black water
falling from high precipice and dash
ing itself upon lofty rock, through
which it passed and then fell into the
Crathis.
The tabled waters Of the Styx have
been identified by students of antiq-
uity as the two slender cascades fall
ing over high perpendicular preci-
pice Of Mount Helmos, near Solos.
After winding among a labyrinth of
rocks the water unites to form noun
tain torrent which eventually joins the
River Akrata (Crathis). Superstitious
feelings of dread still attach to the
water, which is considered Of peculi-
arly noxious character.

Pliny Stirred to Wrath

Those who have watched some VOL
unteer fire companies in action will
be amused by the fact that Pliny got
all wrought up about this matter Of
f1re-fghting back in 1O6 A. D., writes
Joseph T. Armstrong in the New Or.
leans Item-Tribune. In a letter to the
Roman emperor Trajan, Pliny de-
scribed fire at Nicomedia, which
consumed several homes, the town
house and the temple Of Isis.
Pliny Indignantly blamed this dam
age in part to "the Incidence of the
people, who manifestly stood idle and
motionless spectators of this terrible
calamity" He said there were in the
town neither engineers, buckets nor
any single instrument suitable for ex-
tinguishing fires" and recommended
that company of $50 firemen be
formed.

Frank Kent, of the Baltimore
Sun, in commenting on the rec
emily enacted tariff measure
says:
"No pretense is made that
Mr.. Hoover thinks the tariff
good. The contention, how
ever, is that it's administrative
features, involving. complete
reorganization of the Tariff
Commission along with the
flexible provision upon which
he insisted, present an oppor-
tunity ultimately to do with the
tariff what the Interstate Com
merce Commission has done
with the railroads-in brief,
take it out of politics. If that
can be done, it is worth far
more than the price paid in the
bill, particularly when the new
commission measurably will
be able to remake the present
law"

To Whom 1t May Concern

A news despatch has gone
out to the various city dailies
under a Chestertown date line
after an interview with the
Kent County Clerk Of Court,
Thomas Dixon, stating that the
reason why applications for
marriage licenses in Kent
county have dropped off is be-
cause the "bars" have been let
down in Cecil county, and that
the Clerks Office is now issuing
licenses at all hours.
The above statement is alb
solutely false. The one MAX
ing such a statement to the
press had no grounds for such
an assertion. The bars" are
decidedly "up" at the Clerk s
office, and no one is issuing
marriage licenses after office
hours. During the month of
June, 1929, 379 licenses were
issued, while during the past
month of June only 1853 licen-
SEES were given, showing a loss
of 16 over June of last year.
Such statements are untrue,
Inwarranted and malicious,
which / resent. The conduct
of the Clerks Office has been
most efficient, and no irregu-
larities as above suggested
have been practiced. l call
upon the ones making the false
statements to retract, and fur
Their declare that the carrier of
the tale is equally guilty of
falsehood.

Clerk of the Circuit Court

Cobbler Welcome Guest
in Homes of Colonists

In the early days of the American
colonies and for some years after
the Revolution 1t was the custom for
cordwainers. or travelling cobblers, to
go from house to house for many
miles repairing the old boots and
shoes Of the family or making new
ones. Sometimes the cobbler would
remain at one house for two or three
weeks, receiving free board and lodg-
ing while employed on the footgear Of
master. mistress and children.
He carried with him not only his
kit of tools but also different kinds
Of leather. The men usually wore
heavy cowhide boots, well creased
with mutton tallow to keep out the
wet. as rubbers were then unknown.
The children wore calfskin and the
young women of the family morocco
or kid. sometimes red or blue-and
tied with silk tassels. The cord
wainer set up his bench in a corner
Of the kitchen. and while he ham,
mered away or stitched Industrious
ly at his work RECALLED his custom
ers with the news he had gathered
in his travels. He was a welcome
guest in the absence Of newspapers.
Enoch Crosby, the famous Revo-
lutionary spy, exploited by Cooper in
a novel, was a cordwainer and gained
much valuable information for Cen
eral Washington while pursuing his
trade among the Westchester farms.
