HE war, it is said, has caused a vacancy in a number of titles in England. Several baronets are left without heirs and if something is not done, peerage is threatened with extinction in many instances, Why aot auction off those titles to some of our American millionaires whose daughters are title EYE OPENERS mad? “It would be a decided improvement over the old method, by which the titles sold in this country (From a local Sunday schoo paper.) “In choosing his men, Gideon di those who laid asid | thelr arms and threw themeselve: | down to drink; he took those wh: | watched with one eye and drank | with the other.” } - were generally encumbered by some impecunious and profligate rake. Then the girls could select a good, decent chap over here as a husband and endow him with the baronetcy or dukedom or whatever ff} it might happen to be, England would get a wad of American gold, some hardy, new stock and everybody would be happy, instead of wretched as of yore, when fortunes were swapped for, more or less, tarnished titles. It’s a rattling good idea, we think. And, say, there would be some lively bidding, too, wouldn’t there? “* OH!

The services rendered England by the litile soldiers have been of incalculable value. © When at “§ Christmas time the postoffice at Manchester became so congested that the authorities threw up their hands, the Boy Scouts stepped in, 300 in number, and with surprising efficiency straightened out the tangle. They have rendered, and are rendering, innumerable services to the British government. Boy Scouts carry messages, help at Red Cross quarters, dig potatoes when the farmers are short of labor and patrol the whole Eastern coast of England, keeping watch for German warships and submarines. _ As lookouts they are, by reason of their alertness and keenness of vision, more valuable than adult Soldiers. The Boy Scouts have a large part to play in Europe’s war drama and are playing it well. JE silec a teicab Mla Sign in Morton Grove, ll.— ~~ JOS.
