TAofeA«/ Roofs Still Common in England !T ' ~ FARMERS like to patronize the First National. £ l, *" the” We realize that the fanner is our b;st friend. The many prosner- ons farms around Hermiston form the backbone of th i, common- lty, and upon their success depends the success of this institu tion. If yon are not one of our regular depositors, come in and let’s ret acquainted. • 8 One of the oldest crafts In England Is that of thatching. In Norfolk coun ty llatbottomed boats still pass along tho streams conveying men who cut and gather reeds for thatched roofs. When reed season Is In full swing huge piles of dried reeds stand along tho banks waiting for the thatchors. Thatching Is really one of the manual arts hereditary In certain families In that country. One family has en gaged In the occupation through four centuries. Only one change has been made In the process during the 400 years. For merly the reeds were fastened to raft ers with long strands of bramble bush. Now either tarred twine or Iron pegs are used for that purpose. As the reeds are being put on the roofs their tops are still laid In place with a his toric Implement known as the leggett. This Implement consists of a block of wood with comb-llke arrangements of horseshoe nails. H isto ric T o y s First N ational Bank “'Red Tape" Carried to Extremes in Europe The palace of Justice Io Parts, a por tion of which will be set aside shortly aa a museum of relics from the Revo lution, has a curious old custom. Every night one of the main doors Is left ajar in obedience to at> order of March, 1018, when Louis XIII pnv vlded that It should remain open per petually, “so that my subjects may be able to seek Justice at all hours of the day and night.” Through revolution, empire, kingdom and two republics this order has been scrupulously car ried out. But the inclining of the cus tom seems almost forgotten.

In Petrograd they bad a similar Incident In czarist days. The Empress Eliza beth once saw a fine flower In her gar den. As she was on the way to a court function she had no time to pick It, but ordered a soldier to stand guard over It. The empress forgot about the flower, but three centuries later there was still a sentinel placed regularly each hour of the night and day at the spot where the flower had been.— Pierre Van Paassen, In the Aalanta Constitution.
