Ser- via‘s national ballads. commemorating the glories of the Servian Emperor Dushan, the fatal battle of Kossovo and the legendary exploits of the hero Marko Kraiyevich and his horse Sha- rats, are of Homeric proportions and. sung to the accompaniment of a guitar with cords of horsehair tails, have kept national feeling warm for cen- turies. In recent years the Servian government published a popular edi‘ tion. In Macedonia Sir Charles Eliot heard a schoolboy recite a Buigarlan poem which took an hour and a quar- ter, with a simple but significant plot.

Lfor instance, if a man is proved ngiulty of non-support, he may be lsentenced to jail. While he is in liail his family is without support. [In Washington, the culprit, in- stead of being sentenced to jail. will be sentenced to a term of work, the state undertaking to ‘find the work for him. and to give lhis wife and family $1.50 per day Ias long as the sentence lasts. Most fof the work done is. on the public lroads, and it is not likely that it {will make a lazy husband anxious ,for a second term.

He first care- fully observed the crowing cus- toms of roosters. He note-d that every rooster stands up to crow â€"aml that his offensive crowing is always done when on his roost in the early morning hours, So he places a bar above the roost, just where it will bump the rooster} head and back when he rises to crowâ€"and the crowing stops, owing to the rooster’s surprise, and possibly to his indignation. Simple, isn’t it? You can try it on your own rooster Without charge. HO\V TO MAKE A ROOSTER STOP HIS EARLY MORNING CRO‘VING.
