FOR CHILDREN ' (Ry Associated Press) I LONDON, Apr. 6. Jn the wako I of tho marriugo of Princess Mary to j Viscount Uiscclles, a countrywide I craze has developed for naming chil . idren and tilings in honor of the oc casion and its principals. From different parts of the country 'come reports of such names as "Royal Wedding Hill" and "Princess Mary Shaw." Innumerable Harrys, Marys Mary Alexandras and so on figure in ' registrations of the past few days, i Painters and sign writers tcstify to a mild boom in their art owing to the many changes in signs and names of shops, bungalows, houseboats, bungalows, houseboats, houses, etc., in order to give them a "topical" touch. Inns in all parts of the country are being named "The Princess Mary" or "The Lord Lascclles" as substitutes, according to reports, for German or other names that have survived the war. : ' 1 f Preparations fur tho coming season at scasic resorts include the labelling of bathing huts with such names as "Maryland,' "Maryvillc' and "Thi-Princess." Muscle Shoals was a favorite hauirt of the Rod Man, local history shows.; It is believed here that the mound was, originally constructed by the lost race of mound builders but was used by ,tho Indians as a mausoleum Where tho bodies of man great chieftainh- now repose. Tho story appears to be authenticated that tho chief of the last great tribe to inhabit the district was buried here by request so tha: he "might continually hear the splash of the waters as they roll over Muccic Shoals." ,.
