His Lo^ic
Sonny sat on the lower step, his
face resting in two chubby hands.
“What’s the matter. Sonny?”
asked a gentleman.
“Nothin’, just thinkin’,” replied
Sonny.
“What about?”
“Thinkin’ how dumb trees are to
take off their clothes in winter an’
put ’em on in summer.”—The Auto-
mobilist.
So Helpful
Mother (finding John, aged four,
playing with her purse)—John, put
that down. You know you mustn’t
play with Mummie’s purse.
John—O, Mummie, I wasn’t play
ing—I was helping. I’ve licked all
your stamps ready to go on your
letters.
In the Hills of Kentuck;
Salesman—Say, your shoes are
mixed; you’ve got the left shoe on
the right foot.
Strawfoot—And here for twenty
years I thought I was club footed.—

Supreme Court Changes
The right of congress to fix the
size of the Supreme court is un
questioned, and this right has
been exercised six times in the
history of the nation. The Su
preme court began in 1789, with
a chief justice and five associate
justices. It was first changed by
congress in Jefferson’s adminis
tration, on February 24, 1807, one
justice being added to make a to
tal of seven. On March 3, 1837,
under Jackson, two more justices
were added to make nine. Dur
ing the Civil war, on March 3,
1863, congress under Lincoln in
creased the number to 10. During
the clash between Andrew John
son and congress, on July 23, 1866,
it was enacted that no vacancy
to the court should be filled by
appointment until the number was
reduced to six. Soon after Grant
became President, on April 10,
1869, congress restored the num
ber to nine, at which figure It
has remained since.
The first and second of these
changes were made to provide
new circuits for the rapidly grow
ing states of the West and South
west, and the third to provide a
circuit for California and Oregon.
The 1866 law was passed to pre
vent President Johnson filling va
cancies favorably to his policie#.
