The question may be answered in many ways, but the best answer is that the only thing of value in a name is what its owner puts into it. The matter of names came to mind as a result of the signing of refunding bonds of the City Electric Systent hy County Clerk Ross C, Sawyer, Mayor W. W. Demeritt and City Clerk Roy Hamlin, Mr. Sawyer signed his name,to 1,483 bonds in two hours and 45 minutes; Mr. Hamlin, three hours and 30 minutes, while it required Mayor Demeritt eight hours to attach his signature. He began to sign at 10 o'clock in the morning, and stayed at the desk eight con- tinuous hours. He was working against time, and did not stop to eat luncheon. Why did he take so much longer to sign than either Mr. Sawyer or Mr. Ham- lin? The answer is easy to find. William McKinley, when he became president in 1897, signed government documents with his given name in full. A few months after he was in office, he cut down the William to Wm., with two dots under the Wm. When he had been serving for little more than a year, his signature had been reduced to W. McKinley. Whether or not he used.ai periodyafter the W, the story about his changing ‘this signa- ture did nat explain. ‘ i Stephed’ ‘ Grévér” Clevelandd® when mayor’ 6f'Biffald}°N. 'Y)’ used his full vame,'but,.when,he became President, he discarded the Stephen. It required eight hours for Mayor Demeritt to attach his signature to the 1,483 bonds because he signed his name Wm. W. Demeritt, using periods in each case, putting two dots under the Wm, and | crossing the t’s with a backward and for- ward flourish. Thus, there is more than one answer to the question, “What’s in a name?” and one of them is the time you take in sign- ing it, which is very inconvenient if the name is long and you sign it often. Never mind whom you praise, but be | very careful whom you blame. | i \ Young people should realize that they will lose their youth but that they can, if they are wisé,’retain their integrity, enthusiasm and self-respect. JINNAH TALKS OF BLOODSHED The British government is sending unother commission to India, in an effort to solve the vexatious problems connected with demands for independence, and Prime Minister Attlee has declared that Britain+ cannot “allow a minority to place a veto on the advance of a majority.” This statement sets off Mohammad } Ala Jinnah, president of the Moslem League, which asserts that it speaks for 90,000,000 Moslems. The League wants Pakistan, a group of states in northwest India, organized as a separate country, in which Moslems would exercise control. It insists that the Moslems canot tolerate Hindu rule and that they cannot expect equal advantages if the Hindus, who make up the majority of the Indian population, take over by by at vete. ‘Mri Jinnalt does! not hesitate to talk about bloodshed. He intimates that, in his opinion, the British government is yielding to threats from the Hindu leaders and in- timates the mission will act on the basis of who can shed the most blood. He asserts that the Moslems can and will play a part, “if driven to desperation, that will bring about real civil war.” Candidates run for office and when indueted they have to run for cover. | Dictator Franco seems to be having a | hard time to persuade the democratic na- tions that he has been a good boy all along. ENGLAND GETS BANANAS ~ | The food situation in Great Britain | ean be better understood by reading that the first consignment of post-war bananas | reached London the other day. The shipment will be distributed to children under eighteen years of age, with each child being allowed one pound. We call attention to this item because not many Americans appreciate the extent | of the food shortages in the British Isles at the present time, or the sacrifices that the British must make to share food sup- plies with starving populations.

THE WAY TO THE CROSS (Continued) (Story Thus Far: Within two days of feast of passover, hign priests, scribes and elders plot how to take Jesus and kill him. Woman anoints Jesus at house of Simon the leper. Judas agrees to betray Christ for thirty pieces of silver. Jesus reveals betrayer at Last Supper, before giving disciples bread to eat and wine to drink in remembrance of his body and blood. Peter and disciples tell Jesus they will never deny Him. After Jesus prayed to Father at Gethsem- ane, Judas appears with mulu- -tude carrying swords and staves Judas kisses Jesus, who then is | ceased by multitude and taken away to Caiaphas, high priest. Peter follows from afar off aft- er disciples forsook Jesus. False witness sought against Jesus to put him to death but none found.) Jesus Reviled By Scribes, Elders; Peter Denies His Lord At last came two false witness- es, and said, This fellow said, lam able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days. And the high priest arose, and said un- to him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee? Peace. But Jesus held his And the high priest answered ; and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus saith unto. him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say | unto you, Hereafter shall ye se the Son of man sitting on the} right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoxer. blaspemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blaspemy. - !word of Jesus, which said unto eer TODAY’S BIRTHDAYS (Know America) Dr. James B.
