A< far as i* jiraetIcalile, die United Stale-* Post of flee department accepts the decisions of this hoard in all Its oftleial spell lugs. In the case of Pittsburgh. Pa. the tioard was first asked to pass on the correct spelling in 1KP1. at which time It decided in favor of the spell lug "I'i11sburg." This decision, however. met with a great deal of opposition among citizens generally in Pittsburgh, and lu IP 11 the hoard consent t-d to reconsider the case. One of the deciding factors In the final decision was the "original seal of the Borough of Pittsburgh," which was struck in 1701. and which was brought forward as evidence. The Geographic hoard's final decision In 1011 reversed the original decision and established Pittsburgh as the official spelling of the name of this city. Moii Ro>? Legend According to German tradition, the legend of the moss rose is as follows: "Once upon a time an angel, having a mission of love to suffering humanity, came down on earth. He was much grieved tit till llie sin and misery lie saw and at all the evil things lie heard. Being tired, he sought a place to rest, hut as it farec' with Ills master, so it fared with him, there was no room for him, and no one would give him shelter. At last he lay down under the shade of a rose and slept until the rising siiii^ awoke him. Before winging his (light heavenward lie ad dressed the msc and said that, as it had given him shelter which man de n, "d. it should receive an enduring token of to-c |,,w> and so. leaf hv leaf ' "" '**' *" * ' - sU" w. .f, a f..it'll,I i ho siciii. and (hero it is |(, ! . a , C.I ! :* iii w 111, h t he now |?,-t ' " i ' I., a pr,*o| ,.f t . ,?,v , . and 1,1 \ I ' ' ' Electric Piprless Organ rnpt.

Nobody's Business Written for The Chronicle by Gee McGoe, Copyright, 1928. THINGH I CANT UN DKK8TAN I) 1. Why a sensible country like America will put up with a thin^ so foolish us daylight savings tifae, 2. What reasonable excuse a young man can give for wearing a set of mustache that looks so much like a JO-cent toothbrush. 1. Why a 45-pound cowhide sells for 90 cents and a pair of 10-ounce shoes made from a similar cowhide, sells for $7.79. 4. Why so-called dependable fitiy.ehs think it is a shame and a sin to reduce the salaries of city, county, state or federal employees when times get hard like they are now. (Th est* dependable citizens the ones who have the power towreducc expenses.) >). W hy pretty girls properly dolled up in lovely lingerie don't wear dresses just the least hit thinner -o'a fellow coulddent tell that the> had on any dresses at all. (5. Why a certain flapper .n town persists in running her fingers up and <lou n the row of buttons on my vest when she meets ran t, talk about the difference between the cost pf salad dressing made at home and the kind we sell in our store. (Some day somebody is going to make me lease that vest at home, B-Gosh). .,7. How the King of Kngiand can afford to have his salary cut in the sum of $250,000.00 per year?when he knows well and good that his income will thereby be reduced to only $3,775,000.00 per annum. He simply can't run his Ford and smoke Camels and go out at night if he stands for that cut. 8. How a bushel of corn weighing 50 pounds will fetch only 70 cents. 4mt sells for $11.00 when converted into cornflakes. (N. B. What we farmers ought to learn to< 4? to make breakfast foods out of our valuable products, such as corn, wheat, rice and milk.) 9. And furthermore, I don't see how all of us ever got into such an awful fix as we are now in. If the undertakers would reduce their funeral charges, it would pay about half of us to commit suicide, perjury or something. the football game flat rock, s.
