Uncle Roy's Corner
BY RAMON COFFMAN.

For more than a thousand years
there have been eurfews in Europe
We have no record OF the exact
date when the custom started, but
1t Is known to have existed far back
In the Middle Ages.
The word "curfew" came from the
French language. The French used
to spell it "covrefeu.' and the mean
ing was cover FIRE"
The early custom called for COW
ering fires, or putting them out.
Many homes had fireplaces in the
middle of the floor of the chief
room. with a hole in the roof for
the smoke to pass out. Such fires
were supposed to be covered up, or
put out, at a certain hour each
\ evening. There also were laws to
make people put out their candles
and Tampa let curfew time.
In those days almost all the
houses were built of wood, and
many Of them were "firetraps. If
there had been no curfew laws,
cities and villages would have
burned down more often than they
did.
One or more cities in England
had curfew laws in the time of
Alfred the Great. Yet the custom
did not become general among the
English until the time of William
the Conqueror.
King William made strict curfew
laws and ordered his soldiers to
enforce them. The soldiers went
from house to house to make sure
that no fires was left burning.
Curfew laws lasted in England
until long after the death of Will

the ducks. Day after day he would
hide where he could see all that
went on about Farmer Browns
house and dooryard, and no one
ever suspected it. He knew just
when the hens were allowed to run
outside the henyard. He knew just
which ones were boldest and went
farthest from nome and where they
usually went. He knew just when
the ducks went down to the duck
pond and where their favorite rest
ing places on the edge of the pond
were.
The truth is Old Man Coyote
knew a lot more about those ducks
and chickens than Farmer Browns
boy himself. More than once a fat
chicken or q plump duck had passed
almost under Old Man Coyotes nose
and never guessed how close danger

liam the Conqueror. Indeed we
may find them to this day in some
places. The old idea of putting out
household fires is gone, but cur
few can be used to make people 60
home early at night.
For hundreds of years there have
been curfew rules at oxford uni
versity in England. At certain
hour each night. in times of peace,
the seven-and-a half ton bell known
as Great Tom" has been rung to
call the students to their quarters
The Great Tom bell was cast in
l680-more than two and half
centuries ago. Students outside the
university grounds in the evening
have listened for 1t to tell them the
time to return.
Oxford students speak of the bell
as simply Tom" Wartime rules
keep it from ringing nowadays. but
when there is peace again, Tom will
take up his work once more The
old rule is for Tom to ring 10l
times, the ringing taking 10 minutes

because he was smart enough to
know that to seize them would be
to give himself away.
Now the time had come when he
felt that he had learned all that was
to be learned about chickens and
ducks and Farmer Browns folks
and that if he made the most of
what he had learned he could dine
on chicken or duck when he pleased
without running any danger. So
that is how it happened that one

Word has come to us that Uncle
Sam has set a goal for one-third
more cases of canned peas for 1942,
or a total of 3S million cases. Peas
rank third among the most impor-
tant canned vegetables for this
country. The production for the
canning industry is centralized, Tor
the most part, in the region about
the Great Lakes. No modern in
dustry has shown greater improve

| They may be used as nurse crop

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS

Ever since he had come to the

Coyote had taken the greatest pains
to keep away from Farmer Browns.
You see he felt that he was a
stranger, and being such he would
be quite likely to make mistakes
which might get him into trouble.

Coyote prides himself on 1t is the
