- Gypsies, -,who fcaVe a,; calendar un
like that of any oth er people, will
celebrate -New Tear this week.' On
! this side of the Atlantic many of the
gypsies have adopted the modern cal
i endar, hut -to Europe, and especially
; in jfeussla. thejr , still cliog. tathe an
cient Bysteni. rTUe' beginning of a
I new year Is & period . of rejoicing
among the wandering tribes, and, like
Christmas in Greece, It is the favorite
' season for- matrimony. 1 . ;
Although the gypsies have wander
ed around the world,' telling fortunes
and trading horses and engaging in
other precarious forms of 'Snaking a
iliving. It is ln the land of the Czar
, that they are - most, numerous, and
where they may be seen at their, best
- and worst. -
: One ot the most notable and ro
mantic of gypsy Kew Tear marriages
was that which united a gypsy girl
named Olga with Vassili Vereslitcha
gin, the Immortal Russian painter of
war pictures. ' Vereshtchagin became
famous all over the world by his pic
tares of the Kusso-Tnrklsh war,, in
which he sought to denounce war by
picturing battlefield scenes in all their
grim and grisly realism. He was kill
ed In the blowing up of the Petro
pavlovslc at Port Arthur, during the
Bnsso-Japanese war a decade ago.
It was before he achieved "fame that
he met, loved and . married the gypsy
girl. He was 'a young man, wander
ing over Russia looking for ; models,
when he came . upon a , gypsy camp.
Olga. .attracted his attention, and he
bought her from her ; parents . for t
small sum. They were married dur
lag the New Tear celebration and at
' once left the encampment and settled
la a small home In St. Petersburg.
In the .Russian capital the beauty
of the gypsy - girl attracted wide at-
tention, and a young army officer
liftmed Chertkotf fell Violently in love
with,, her. , The artist was addicted
to the vioe of gambling, 1 and Cher
koff played with him until his money
was gone. Then he offered to risk
all he had won against! Olga, -. and
the artist accepted the . challenge.
Again the officer was the winner; and
Olga willingly consented , to go' with
the victor, y . They -werei legally ' mar
ried, as the . gypsy wedding .was not
recognised .as. binding , by the Greek
church ' authorities.; Chertkoff '- was
made a piipbe, and eventually became
viceroy of Poland, where, it is said.
his gypsy wife urged him to commit
many acts of cruelty and oppression,
Ti HE OWNER of, a chain of, stores' discovered that those
. whom he' had entrusted with'the management of them
were wasting his goods, and depriving him of his legitimate
profits upon his investment. Instead of discharging his former
managers, and employing those who were ahieto conduct his
business properly, , he implored the Unifed States government to
furxush a jsoliceman for each majiager; He "asked similar, help
of several state governments. .
'. i." This is a modern fable, but it represents a. present truth.
The stockholders of the New Haven company, having seen
their dividends taken from them by- the methods employed by
those who managed their "property, now pely upon government
activity to save what is left. , .'
T,he government activity is necessary and proper and help
ful. x r " . , , .
But prudent , stockholders would find ' some means to get
them new managers. The directors who presided over the var
ious blunders and yvorse than blunders which have marked New
Haven. management are still on the job. The.kept politicians
who prevented legislation which would have protected both pub
lic and stockholders, are still on the'job. . j s ." ;

. - "t ' j WHY .THE OBJECT . ,
NE COMMON, form of attack upon the Ford benevolence
which The Farmer prefers to regard ""as an' act'oJT
equity is the assertion that the $1 0,000,000 which ; , Mr. Ford
plans to divide among his employes, ought to be given' to . the
public in the form. of a reduced price on his goods. -
These gentlemen offer elaborate, arguments, based 'on most
plausible ethical considerations in support of their views. " -

Carnegie's library gifts, Mr. Rockefeller's donations, the entire
array of dispositiohs. by .which the very wealthy dispose of por
tions of their means, come under the same ethical rules are pro
posed for the Ford plan. - '
( If, it would be better for Mr. Ford to reduce the price of his
goods, 'rather than increase the pay of his workers, then it
would certainly be better for Mr; -Rockefeller to reduce the price
of his 'oil, than, to make his. gifts, to educationi ,.
" The opponents of Mr. "Ford's plans for the !most part seem.
to be those who would resent any plan to better the well-being
of the producing classes i of society, "V ,
What they object to m-Mr. Ford a case: is that workers may
be stimulated to ask fortnre wages.-They fear that -because he
pays more to his workers, others may have to pay more to their
workers. 'J In this view these persons are probably correct. , '

, SIR. WTILS0NS CONCENTRATED ST1XE. . " u
TT3 RESIDENT. WILSON spent ;much time at Pass Christian
jLk - writing his trust message. But that does not mean a
voluminous, state paper." With most of; the-presidents; .the more
time spent the longer the message , spun out. Mr. Wilson seems
to spend his . time compacting and concentrating. . That gives
him a Jbig' audience, . " " ' ' '
i Our presidents have always had facility in,, the useof lan
guage." Some of them, have been.. clever phrase- makers,"' and
have coined expressions that' stick in political life. ' But none of
them, previous to Mr. Wilson, fully realized the-effectiveness
of the concentrated, direct style of a newspaper editorial. ;;
' ' . The annual message to, '.Congress used to be a compendium
and reference bookj rather than ah addcessj." , After long booming
statistics and comprehensive detail the .vital discussion of, tar
iff, trusts, or currency would be reached. By that time the Con
gressmen had retired yawning, getting the gist of it in some
hastily written reporter's summary, i The public reads, the head-r
lines. : Occasional .messages, dealing with special subjects often
strung out to 5,000 words or more.- . V ;-:.. .'. ..' :r'.:."
i A newspaper editor expects td handle a large question in
1,200 words, (the t average newspaper column),' .'The public is"
trained to this -concise, terse, direct, logical style. - A public
speaker needs. 5,000 to 10,0000 words for the same subject.' The
hearer wearies at leisurely; wandering diversions' to side-issues,
which platform oratory develops. That is why the newspaper
is so much more influential than'the lecture platforms v? ..
Mr.. Wilson has et as,new ashibnin state papers. s'Any
public man or 5 public speaker should reflect on the advantages
of this terse,' journalistic 'style. For every one man who 'will
read a 5,000 word message, there are 500 who . will read a 1,000
word utterance; '. , ' t . , . , ,
MIDWINTER ADVERTISING
i A reformer-whose scope Is the cl
vllized world is Dr. ;Wilbur . Plsk
Crafts, superintendent "of the inter
national , Reform i Bureau. Temper
ance, Sabbath observance and the sup
press ion of the traffic in vice-afe the
chief ends or the international, bur"1"
rhlcn was ; founded :. in 1895 by -."53r.
Crafts, and of which he has since
been the headJ Dr. Crafts was born
In Kryeburg, M.,. sixty-four years ago
today. His father was a clergyman,
and he chose the same profession.
After twelve years, in the Methodist
ministry he changed to the Congrer
gational church, and three years lat
er affiliated with the Presbyterians.
He 'was pastor in several New . Eng
land cities, and In New York, Brook
lyn and Chicago, and in 18 8 9 found
the American Sabbath Union. As
HT"0 THE MAN who1 follows the advertising' and real estate
. JL tradegame. for, a. period of years, the buying public
resolves itself largely into two ciasses.i ", First, there are the
people who buy. when they feel like it,, or run short of articles,
without much system. Second, those who watch the local trade
market, as keenly, as" the buyer of a manufacturing concern
watches the commercial papers., 1 ' ;
That may take time, but it's scientific buying. The canny
housewife knows .that in the month of January, the merchant
is up against the proposition of reducing stocks. Not all his
ventures have, succeeded. He did' notf expect, them' to. : Some
chances must be taken; irregularities in weatherand caprices
uf popular taste have left parts of his stock "unsold. "- He must
do one of two things. . Carry stock over, borrow money to hold
it, pay heavier insurance, take cjiances of style changes or de
terioration, or cut his prices. ' -
The .majority; or the' merchants, cut prices regularly dur
ing the latter half of the jVinter, to meet these conditions. The
scientific house buyer makes the bulk of the winter purchases
during this period. What is not needed this season will be use
ful another winter., ' ' ' '.
' This trade is .mostly: reached through '.advertising. Every
advertisement at this lime of the year is closely scanned, not
merely with the casual hope of some unexpected bargain that
may fit in sqme.time, but in. pursuance with a settled policy pf
buying in the lowest market. . " : ; , ,
As it takes too much-time to run around the stores and see
what the merchants are; doing, the public watches the news
papers, and visits the places that have made known their bar
gains. January is peculiarly a month when the newspaper is a
directory of economy. The people who don't read the store ad
vertising miss chancesHo-keep the cost of living down.
PLOUGH MONDAY,
ANCIENT HOLIDAY,
REVIVED TODAY ; ,
head of ' the reform bureau he ' has
traveled all ' over America, Europe,
Asia and Australia. On his recent
tbur of Europe,. Dr. Crafts found that
the old ' countries are making great
progress In temperance. In Germany
he found . that ' the . socialists had a
well organized and powerful temper
ance organization. In Great Britain
he found that a third . of aU youths
are enrolled In abstinence societies. In
the. social evil Dr. Grafts found the
conditions in Europe very bad.
. During November, J.913. there were
10,856.000 pounds of beef imported
into the United States.
Plough Monday, the 'ancient English-,
festival, comes, , today, , and in
some, remote sections- of Scotland - and
the north of England, the old prac
tice of dragging a plough from house
to house, soliciting. , . aims to. ' buy
drink, will be revived by the agricul
tural laborers. Plough Monday was
formerly the occasion of 'a great spree
in which all the farm . hands indulg
ed, and it was a hard hearted land
lord, indeed, who 'Would not contrl
bute to the fund for buying the. neces
sary ' beverages. ; ', - -. , H
Plough Monday comes on the first
Monday. ' following - Epiphany or
Twelfth .pay, and it received the ap
pelation from : Its having; been fixed
upon 'as. the day upon which English

they returned to the, duties of agri

TITLES FOR WOMEN
Three persons were asphyxiated by

Branch, N. J.
The first Englishwoman to be made
a baroness of the United Kingdom
In her own right was the widow .. of
Sir Ralph Abereromby, , the distin
guished English general. After a long
and valorous service, ..which., won the
Recognition of knighthood and the
Order of the Bath; Sir Ralph was
killed at . the battle near Alexandria,
in 1801, On this date in the follow
ing year his widow was - created a
baroness, by the king. . More -recent
notable Instances of this- kind were
the conferring of the title of Viscoun
tess, Hambleden on the widow, of W.
H. Smith, the House of Commons
leader, and of the -title of Baroness
Macdonald of Earnscliffe on : the
widow of Sir John' Alexander Mac
donald, the Canadian statesman and
premier. Both of 'these titles were
conferred In 1891. Last year the
widow' of Capt. Scott,, who lost h,ls life
while engaged in a South Polar ex
pedition, was given the same - rank,
style and precedence as if her hus
band had been nominated a , Knight
Commander of the Bath, as he, would
have been had her survived,;: ;, .. q ;..
Jack London, considered by many
the most forceful and virile of Amer
ican -novelists,, was born In San Fran
cisco thirty-elghf. years '-ago i today.
Newsboy, sailor before the mast, ho
bo and jack of all trades were hip
early occupations, and his education
was derived principally, in the school
of adversity' and ' experience." At
eighteen he was almost . illiterate - in
his conversation and ' writing, - but
within a few years his name appeared
on a volume that electrified the read
ing world. . London began his educa
tion in the University of California,
but he left that Institution to go to the
Klondike. - His first, stories were re
turned with : great regularity, but he
persevered,' and 'at last disposed of a
story for $ 5 at least,1 that amount
Was promised but London 'never col
lected -it. He was twenty-four when
he scored his first literary bullseye
with ' "The Son of the Wolf." His
"The Call of the Wild," written In
1903, and "The Sea Wolf," published
a 'year later, are today English clas
sics, i " 'r ' - ' '
