Many Irish People Died
When Potato Crop Failed

Year after year, beginning about
1910, the potato crops of Europe and
North America suffered terrible losses.
SO discouraged did the growers Of New
York state become that each five-year
census showed a drop in production
till only 6,447394 bushels were grown
In 1860.
Worst of all was the terrible Irish
famine of 1916, 1916 and 1847. Before
potatoes became generally used for
food in Ireland the population was es-
timated at about $4,000 in 1850. BY.
1S45 it had increased to S,295,061. More
than per cent of the land of Ire
land was planted to potatoes. So COM
piete and disastrous was the loss of
the potato crop by blight and rot, and
so great was the dependence Of the
Irish people upon their star of life
that between 100000 and 100000 per-
sons persisted Of starvation or Of dis
eases brought on by insufficient food.
Literally millions of the Irish race emf
grated till the population fell to about
half that in 1S45.-Rural New-Yorker.

Crossing the Equator

Crossing the equator has nothing
to do with a change Of time. 1t is
when crossing the international date
line, which lies In the middle of the
Pacific ocean and roughly corresponds
to the one hundred and eightieth merid-
ian, that the traveller loses or gains a
day, depending on which way his vessel
is moving. 1t Is a purely arbitrary
arrangement, made necessary by our
method of reckoning time. Sailing
west across the date line, day is
lost; crossing 1t eastward adds a day.

Card Playing Once Only
Pastime for the Mobiles

According to the authority of Strut
the general opinion as to the origin
of playing cards is that they were in
vented by painter, one Gringonneur,
for the diversion of crazy Charles vi
of France, about the year 1892; but
Baron Heinekin places their use in
Germany score of years earlier, while
allusion is made in British Chronicles
to the game of "Four Kings played in
1877.
Experts in Asiatic history declare
that cards were used in countries Of
the East long before they reached Eu-
rope. Warton suggests the Arabians as
the inventors Of cards, his theory being
that they taught the Greeks, and that
during the Crusades the game was
learned by the soldiers from western
Europe.
In the earlier history Of card playing
1t is safe to presume writes May
Wynne in "Mine'') that packs of cards
were not easily produced, since they
had to be drawn and painted by hand.
So cards virtually remained diversion
Of the mobiles till the importation Of
cheaper cards, which must have been
a considerable trade. since, in 1853, we
find the cardmakers of London petit
tioning Edward Nv against the importa-
ton Of cards.
And so with comparative rapidly the
fashion Of card playing spread through
England till in the reign of Henry VII
we read that 1t had become one Of the
favorite amusements at court.
Imitation being the sincerest form
Of fiattery, the public showed itself a
ready train of flatterefs in the respect
OF card playing, and 1t became neces-
sary in the reign of Henry VIII to stop
apprentices from card playing except
ing at Christmastide and then only in
their masters houses.-Philadelphia
Inquirer.

sue and moved to expose it through
the medium Of House investigation
rather than fight individually to show
how ridiculous, how unsound, the plan
was.
Having set up the picture showing
an utterly impossible program on the
part Of DIR. Townsend and his asso-
ciates and followers, the House poll
ticians were confronted suddenly by
DR.. Townsend's arrogance in his re-
fusal to testify. That presented sud-
den change in the scenery. To ex-
plain the dangers in this new prob
lem, 1t is only necessary to say that
If the House had acted promptly by
voting that DR.. Townsend was in con-
tempt and must spend some time in
jail, / expect the result would have
been martyrdom for DIR. Townsend.
Martyrdom is always bad from a po-
litical standpoint If the opposition has
the martyr.
The house, therefore, has turned
over the affair to the courts and the
courts, being slow moving as they al
ways are, will not get around to prose-
cution of the case until it is too late
to have any influence on the election.
So we can see readily that DIR. Town
send is left out in the cold. He can
neither use the influence that is char
acteristic of martyrdom nor can he say
that his skirts are clear. The house
has left him hanging conveniently in
mid-air and 1t was done solely for
political reasons.
There may be some more hearings
on the Townsend plan during the sum-
mer but the chances are that Repre-
sentative Bell will not call the COM
mittee together again for some months.
Practically, the case is closed. 1t has
undoubtedly stopped to a large meas
ure the drain that the Townsend Or
ganization was making on the un-
thinking, the aged and the destitute
whose quarters, dimes and nickels
have financed the thing thus far.
While the committee did good job by
exposing the character Of the scheme,
1 still am doubtful that it has brought
to itself or to the house Of represen-
tatives any fresh confidence In our
governmental structure.

many other sections Of the country,

17-Year
Locusts

i use the WOrO 10
Gusts in quotation marks because they
are not really locusts. They are CT
cadas but to the most of us they are
and will remain the seventeen-year
locusts.
It Is said that the first colonists in
America, never before having met with
the insects and believing that every
thing Of Gods creation was accounted
for in the Bible, concluded they were
locusts and the name has stuck. In
any event, they appear in greatest
numbers at seventeen-year intervals
and 1886 seems to be banner year.
Back in 1919, trees in many sections
OF the country were pierced by tiny
saw-like instruments which the De-
partment Of Agriculture says are part
of the equipment Of the female ci-
cadas. Billions Of eggs were deposited
under the soft bark. A month or two
later, grubs emerged on the branches
and dropped unnoticed to the earth.
Then. the chronology of the life Of
these cicadas becomes a matter Of
darkness for seventeen long years. The
insect In grub form burrowed itself
In the soil and subsisted on the Juices
OF roots. AS far as anyone knows
they did little or no harm but after
sixteen years and a few months of
this life, the grubs awoke this spring
and out they came. They acted on
instinct, Of course.
Through the last several weeks
these great beetle-like bugs with wings
like islnglass have been humming and
drumming and leaving their empty
shells attached to trees and grasses.
During that period, the males have
spent their daylight hours singing. The
Department Of Agriculture is not quite
sure why this singing has gone on be-
cause 1t has ascertained that all of
the lady cicadas are quite deaf.
Perhaps / have devoted too much
space to the story Of the seventeen
year locust. Perhaps the seventeen
year locust is not important at all ex.
cept to the robins and the starlings
and the sparrows and the other birds
which have had feast in 1885 that
almost no other bird now living has
known. But have a thought about
these seventeen-year locusts, a train
Of thoughts, in fact. They lead to
this:
What will conditions be in 1858, or
seventeen years hence when those
humans on earth will hear again the
mating song of the locusts?
VIII the policies and the principles
initiated by Franklin d. Roosevelt and
called "the New Deal" be firmly i'm
bedded as American traditions or Will
they be cast out as impractical and
forgotten7 VIII the changes in civil
ization be such that people will be
willing to submit to RECOMMENDATION, to
have their government tell them what
to do and how to do 1t, or viii this ma
ton be a nation Of individuals who
insist upon the rights and the privi-
leges which the founders Of our coun-
try believed to be Just and right3
