FAMED NEW ENGLAND FAMILY;'
Distinguished Citizens Among
the Hanks of the Town of
Mansfield, Conn.
\vt the recent celebration at Mansfleljl,
Conn., of the golden wedding of ?
Mr* and Mrs. Henry W: Hnnks.fhei
was brought out that the Hanks "
L ^Kmily has long been known for its
Bk m ^rogenulty. The first town clock known
in thiSfcCOuntry was made on Hanks
hill by Benjamin Hanks and was I
placed in the Old Dutch church in ;
Kpu' York eltv in 17S0." The first
brass cannon and first bell In America
were also cast on Hanks hill.
Not only this, but the first silk mill
erected In the United States, in 1810,
still remains on tne old hill. The
grandfather of Henry W. Hanks, who
was Rodney Hanks, was the first silk
manufacturer in America. The latter's
son, George it., father of Henry,
continued in the business. All about1
the old town are evidences of a famous experiment
In raising cocoons for the
industry, In the shape of stray mulberry
trees which hate survived tne
severe New England winters.
Another Interesting fact brought out
at the celebration was that, although
Mr. and Mrs. Henry Hanks have five
children and four grandchildren, durtag
the fifty years of their married
Hfe there has never been a death in
the family. When a boy, Henry Hanks
went with his parents to Illinois,
where they ran a ranch and conducted
a grocery store in the years between
1858 and 1867, mov ing back to the ancestral
acres during the latter year?

SARDINIA LIVES IN THE PAST
Hand Sickles and Wooden Plows
Drawn by Oxen Are Still in
Use on the Island.
Relics of Biblical pastoral life, plowing
with wooden hooks drawn by oxen,
reaping by the most primitive Implements
and other occupations of the
nomadic peoples of antiquity remain
the manner of living today In Sardinia,
according to Dr. Alfred P. Dennis,
commercial attache of the United
States embassy at Rome, who has jhst
returned from the island after making
an exhaustive study into trade possibilities.
"Sardinians present a living picture
of the remote past which has been
stereotyped and haaded down from
antiquity," said Doctor Dennis. "Water
wheels with earthen buckets, wooden
plows draiwn by oxen, the scythe
and. the sickle still In use in reaping
ast fields?nomadic occupations unchanged
Since the days of the Aryan
dispersion?tribal costumes as gay and
grotesque as the trappings of the toe- ?,
dleval pageant?all reproduced in the
veriest similitude the archaic life of f.\
bygone ages." i j|

The constitutionality of th^ federal
migratory bird treaty act, approved
July 3, 1918, Is upheld In an opinion
rendered not long ago by Federal )
Judge Jacob Trieber of the eastern
district of Arkansas In the case of the
United States against E. D. Thompson
of Memphis, charged with killing
and possessing one robin in violation
of the act.
This is one of the most important
decisions ever rendered affecting the
conservation of wild life. It sustains
the right of congress to enact legislation
to insure the execution of the :
terms of the treaty between the United
States and Great Britain, concluded
August 16, 1916, for the protection of
migratory birds in the United States
and Canada. |
It will he recalled that Judge Trie- |j
her In 1914, in the case of United j
States against Harvey C. Shauver, do- J
cided that the migratory bird law, approved
March 4, 1913, was unconstitutional.

The city of Philadelphia has been j
reminded, in an unexpected fashion, of ! f
Its association with William I'enn. He ; ;
reserved for the Indians two small |
pieces of land where they might come j
in peace and build their Council fires. |
One of them, a patch of 85 feet by 100, J
under the shadow of the towering Rltz,- j j
Carlton hotel, Is now covered with
asphalt The other is used as a storage
and dumping ground for odds and j
ends. There has appeared an Indian
princess named No-toh-tha ? which
means, in the Seneca language, "Never )
contented"?claiming these reserva- j
tions for the use of her people. She
has .filed her apjlffcation with the Indian
Rights association, and intends, if ;)
necessary, to Invoke the aid of the Six
Nations of New York.
