PltKBOMINANCE OK THK SMITHS Names are a curious study. Tlie Snilth family nae commonly o siild to be the most numerous of any of the family groups In this country. This claim waa confirmed by the figures given out by the war risa bureau, showing that of the men on their cards, the enormous number of 64.180 signed the name Smith. The Johnsons came next with 41.50. The Drowns wero third, with 29,06(1. It would be an Interesting subject of speculation for the phllologim or philosopher, to see If any reason could he determined why the Smiths have risen to this proud numerical superiority. Why are there more Smiths tian Thompsons or Kobln sons or Joneses? Many surnames originally came from the trade which people fol lowed. In the days of chivalry, horses were the chief means of loco motion and transportation. There must have been a Smith at every cross roads. Primitive custom called him Mister or Master Smith. His son followed the mine occupation and took the same title for genera tion!. It would seem possllile that the Smiths, following a vigorous and athletic calling, should acquire as a tribe, a powerful physical develoti ment. Perhaps then they might he expected to propagate faster and dn Telop a greater population thnn In ordinary run of people. But the dayt when the ordinary family of English stock had eight to ten children hive long since passed. To get these fam ilies now you have to go among the newcomers. Perhaps the directories of 1970 will show that the Suilllis have been pulled down from their proud predominance by (he Colarul log or Czelusnlaks or other prolific alien slocks, who are even now build ing up armies of descendants In our towns. held In this county and put our ef- J -J Df ifl forta toward making tha Strawberry rtgCU IXlUUt-C . . . i ..,, on1 frlnrlmia sue 1 . Kuauvai " .est. After everything else boa been "lapped"' now comes the nattering .uuior that it Is quite possible that wine of that John D. Rockefeller "stuff" Is about to be unearthed In .hit county. The merchant who doesn't believe n advertising and who now finds himself loaded up with blub priced stock, must feel very much up .'gainst It. The only revolutions that will be M-un In this country, are those of Hie wheels inside the heads of the leople who are trying to promote them. Those strikers who tied up the production cf nails and thus held hi, hmita foiifttrtiction. will urobably mi ike ugain coon because rents have advanced. In these times when lnhor Is ex pensive, some people may be templed to give up the culture of flowers. But it would seem that In these days of short hours and labor conveniences, the modern family could llnd time to decorate Itself with flowers. The old fashioned home with Its lovely gar den, was no beauty bought with cash. . Usually the busy housewife, already burdened with the impera tive enret of a big family, could yt find chinks of time for her beloved hollyhocks and roses. And how they did glorify the simple old home. The modern dwelling may he more taste ful than the old time home was. Hut If it gives up the old flower garden. Its handsome brick or stucco or shingles are no substitute for the gny loveliness of the flowers. It does not take such a lot of time to develop a beautiful garden, and the results or' a glorious compensation for the effort. An Inquirer asks what has lie come of the pirates who used to sail 'the seas with a black flag showing skulls and crosB hones. O well, they live on the best streets now, und are highly respectable speculators In the necessaries of life. Well, we can now forget that there was ever a primary election The time has gone hy when a man would hand out a $100 bill for a $75 suit of clothes, and tell the clerk :o never mind about the change. The Germans nang on to their ;nns with the same firmness with vthlrh they protest that they lung or peace. All the men who laugh at the f.'eakisbness of feminine styles, al ways put on their straw hats at lust "be same day regardless of weather. Successful candidates only get !n running shape at a primary election. The big event comes off In November. Doll up for the carnival and take 'otir be'.t girl to all the shows but look out for the fat man. Nothing the matter with thlH tventher. Just fits in fine for our annual festival.
