OPEN DAY AND NIGHT
Vicar Rocks Baby's Cradle
Observing Ancient Custom
MANSFIELD, Eng., Mar 7
When the Rev. J. Lowndes, the
bachelor vicar of BHd worth, near
here, rocked a baby's cradle in
his church on a recent Sunday it
was not In an effort to stop the
baby's cry, but the carrying out
of a custom which has been ob
served for nearly 700 years. ",
From the thirteenth century it
has been a rule I that the most
recently born baby in the parish
should be taken to church on the
Sunday nearest Candlemas and
dedicate, to God. On Saturday
night the child is baptized, next
day it Is again taken to the sanc
tuary and placed in a tiny cradle
inside the altar rails. The vicar
then dedicates the child to God
and rocks the cradle.
The ceremony is intended to
symbolize the Biblical story of the
presentation of the Child Christ
in the temple. The cjradle in
Blldworth church was draped with
linen and bedecked with ' a mass
of flowers. At the head of the
cradle were placed two ' lighted
candles and two acolytes stood
near with lighted tapers. ' In the
olden 'bays the parishioners used
to parade the village streets car
rying the child, but that part of
the ceremony 'is now omitted.
Kentucky Election Cases
Fourth Murder Trial Set
. JACKSON, Ky.l Mar. 7- The
fourth trial in the series of Clay
hole cases," as the murder indict
ments ; against 13 men for the
election day shooting of 1921 are
known, has been set for March 25
before Judge D. W. Gardner.
One of the first trials resulted
in conviction of one member of
the Republican group of defen
dants. William Barnett, whose
two-year prison sentence will ex
pire this spring, while two trials
of the Democratic group resulted
in a disagreement of the jury and
a conviction was reversed on ap
peal. The shooting resulted in four
deaths and 17 wounded. It fol
lowed the invasion of one party
stronghold by members of another
party, on election morning.
; All concerned in the shooting
signed a petition to the -county
judge and commonwealth's at
torney that they: "failed to see
where any good can result in liti
gation over the matter" and ask
ed the county officials to "let by
gones be bygones," The prosecu
tion, however, was soon begun.
The three trials so far have
been held in Boyd county, on
changes of venue from .Breathitt
county, the scene "of, the shoot
ing. ' ; j .Y" :;
The approaching trial will be
with other members of the Rep
ublican group-as defendants. They,
accused of the murder of the three
Democrats slain, demanded sep
arate trials.

Death Duties May Wipe
Out Ancestral Estates
' GLiASGOW, Afar. 7 The great
estates of England, Scotland and
Ireland are -doomed to te done
away - with eventually owing ' to
the : death duties of landowners
collected by the state and which
sometimes total as high as 60 per
cent..; The. landlords protested
vigorously at first but in vain and
in most cases have resigned them
selves to their fate. -
Speaking before the Glasgow
Conservative club, , where. he was
entertained on the attainment of
hig ducal jubilee, the Duke of
Montrose said he doubted that the
rising , generation realized ' the
transition which is taking place In
regard to their :futu re. :
"We are running very fast, In
these democratic times.!' he said!
"and the big estates and ancestral
castles which were a feature of
my younger days must gradually
disappear . -in Virtue - of - the death
duties as they are now assessed.
The landlordBTlghts are being
curtailed every day, but neverthe
less I cannot help but think that
I have lived during the most pros
perous time of. this, old country
of ours. , Possibly we won't miss
the old castles, after all." . r-

I for a state legislature changing Its

ment. j It happened to some of
th$ constitutional amendments In
the reconstruction days after the
CiVn War; but the child, labor
amendment' presents some features
or which It Is said a .legal fight
cplild be based. . -
jAs every; school -hoy knows, a
constitutional amendment must be
ratified .by: three-fourths of the
stktes. thirty-six. Therefore, rejec
tion by. thirteen Btate legislatures,
deadlock or action in one house
and not In the other may serve
to defeat it. ' The ' constitution
provides ; also that- when three
fourths of the states have ratified
a proposed, amendment, it shall
be proclaimed. This is done by
state department. But the consti
tution makes no provision for
proclaiming the defeat of a prop
osed amendment and thereby
J' losing -the chapter. Bills now
re pending in Congress to have
(lefcat as well as ratification
)foclaimed, but. it enacted into

"the child, labor amendment, but
jwould apply to future proposals.

al amendment. They only report
Iwhen they accept one.
I Bu the question of how long
a proposed, amendment may pend,
whflestate legislatures are swayed
one fray and the other upon it,
presents a question which ultima
tely may come to.Hhe supreme
court of the United States. The
I proponents of the child,- laDor
amendment argue that, states have
changed before and been recorded
according to their latest decision.
Congress, In submitting the
propbsed amendment to the states,
did not fix any time .limit within
which they must act as it did In
the prohibition amendment, the
eighteenth. In that case congress
required action within six years.
But in the case of the child labor
amendment there is no such 1im4

change conted that the amendment
