This time he has invoked the cinema to show how carelessness and negli- gence hamper the Federal mail ser- vice. - Within a few weeks motion pictures will be thrown on the screen outlining the vast amount of work necessary to handle the people’s mail and many incidents of failure on the part of the sender of the letter will be made plain. Simple Names. An eastern reformer has started a crusade against middle names. “Can you-imagine a Julius B. Caesar?” he snorts, ‘“‘or a George F. Washington or a Napoleon McY. Bonaparte?” The first reference is unfortunate, inasmuch as the gentleman’s full ap- pellation was Caius Julius Caesar. He was ashamed of it, however, and set a good example to Thomas Woodrow ‘Wilson and Stephen Grover Cleveland by dropping his front name when he entered public life. When you come right down to it, two names ought to be enough for anybody. A third name is generally as useless as a third wheel on a bi- cycle, even if it does look well in a birth notice or a wedding invitation. * Of -course, the more names a man has tagged onto him, the less likely he is to be mislaid or to have his mail opened by strangers, but even those advantages hardly justify a French mother in giving her helpless off- spring Jean Paul Baptiste Francois George Jacques Andre for its Chris- tian name. In Idaho a man boasting or three initials is irrevently dubbed ‘“Alphabet,” and it's no more than he deserves. There have been lots of men who amounted to something with only one name. There was Moses, for ex- ample. *Would he have had any more dignity or influence if he’d signed Moses? And there were Solomon and Alexander and Homer and Solon and no end of notables in the same category. Kirigs and emperors as a class have fewer names than anybody else. No ““matter what silly queen-mothers may ‘happen to have them christened, when they become their own bosses they choose whatever names they like, and -none of them-chooses more than one. It's just plain George or William or Nicholas—not' even an initial. And as for hyphens,-who ever heard of get to.the top, it seems, in order to find real democracy and simplicity in names.

Of your qualities he says nothing, he is concerned only with what he con- siders your faults. If you take ex- ception to his criticism he replies: “My dear fellow, I am" advising’ you as your candid friend,” and in saying that he implies that you ought to be grateful to him.—Two Harbors Journal News. CHOOSE A NAME TO Shakespeare (or was it Bacon) said “What’s in a name?” The correct answer is said to be “more or less.” One is reminded of the story told by Judge Simpkins. It seems that he was traveling in a strange part of the country and stopped at an old negro’s cabin to inquire the direction to a certain village. It so happened that there were eight or ten colored children playing in the yard, all re- sembling one another and bearing unmistakable likeness to the old man. When the desired information was sought the colored patriarch turned to one of the piccanninnies and said: Here, you Judas Iscariot, come and see what this gemmen’ done want.” He was asked why he had given such a name to his son. “Case it’s a Bible name,” replied the old man. “But,” suggested the judge, “you could have found lots of names in the Bible that would be better and more appropriate for your son.” “Deed, I couldn’t, boss,” responded the darkey. “I already had eleven children when he comes, so I goes lookin’ frew de. Bible to fin’ him a name, an’ I come to where it says ‘it 'ud been better for Judas Iscariot if he neber been born.” The old colored father at least had the advantage of most of us in the fact that he read the Bible, although he did get the purport somewhat twisted. In the new illustrated Bible now being presented by The Pioneer on the educational certificate plan, the various passages are made ‘plain by accompanying illustrations that por- tray the actual meaning of the text. Such a Bible has never before been issued. It gives to the reader an en- tirely new and correct conception which is at once interesting and in- structive. The Bible thus becomes an educational work of . rare value to young and old alike. It is just the book for the family—father, mother, brother and sister—everybody that would have a desire to enlighten him- self on everyday topics of conver- sation. ‘The Pioneer is now presenting these Bibles for six certificates with the the cost of distribution, as explained elsewhere.
