classification of the innumer able host of family names which have developed from that most common of all given names john from its original hebrew form of jehohanan the name of john has de veloped into nearly every sort of sound around which the human tongue can twist through pagan as well as christian races indeed it is held that the name of hannibal th egreat carthaginian warrior who crossed

term of imprisonment when people tell one another how busy they are or have been although they are likely to lament the busy ness they usually regard it as credit able and yet to be busy is not neces sarily to be engaged in anything worth while being busy and working are by no means synonymous the dis paraging expression a busybody arose from a perception of that fact people who keep themselves pretty constantly occupied with work have no time or inclination for mischief- making yet people can busy them selves in making mischief they can busy themselves too in ways that do no special harm to others and that are yet futile and frivolous a great many people for example are busy perform ing social acts and rites that have no particular value being busy in the sen3e of being constantly occupied with the little complications in the web of life is a harassing and discouraging form of activity says a writer in youths com panion yet nowadays people give more time and effort to the attempt to deal with such complications than ever before because the complica tions are more numerous and intri cate the persons who are busy most of the time on productive interesting work of some

tablishment of an air base in alaska from which the start would be made it is unlikely that a special hangar for the big ship would be built there and it is much more probable mooring masts would be utilized to hold the shenandoah between flights such mast salready are in use at the lake- hurst nj naval station the usual airship mooring mast is about 200 feet high and is of steel firmly based in concrete the nose of the ship la made fast by cables to a swivel arrangement set in the head of the mast this swivel moving freely permits the flying craft to swing to the wind much as a ship swings to its anchor in a tideway whon the air ship is to be moored she noses down toward the mast drops her cable to the ground and this in turn is made fast to the cable on the mast swivel the slack is then taken up by a motor driven winch on the ground after being secured to the mast it is found the airship rides better in the wind if ballast is cast out the parsonage the study greeted him with its
