We're doing it again today, fann
giving a lini'rick prize io n line that
some of ou will cay does not rhyme,
because it ends with the same word
as the first line
That's correct, so far an it goes, but.
as we have pointed out before, strict
rule of rhyme can bo broken In lltn'
rick writing when It In neccsnary to get
a good idea across. And to prove our
point, we tptnted, the other day, one of
the classic limericks of all time the
one about the young lady who amlled
as Nhe rode on a tiger to show that
the same word may oe tised at the end
of two llnea If the thought is good
enough to Justify it
Mind: It isn't a good thing to do or- '
dinarily. In fact, we uaually dincourage
it, necause w many or tue tans odjcci
to it and we arc trying to run this
contest to please the fans.
In the case of today's line, wc
thought the idea good euough to be en
titled to n nlace on the ballot and the
jury at the Drill car plant did the rent. I
Ho, evidently, there arc a lot or people
who believe this is a legitimate form of

GERMANY LOSES 15 YEARS
Population and Llveatcrck on Level
With That of f90B
Special Cable DUpateh. Copvrlpht, Hit,
Berlin, Tan. 21. As a result of the
world war, Germany has "gone hack"
moro'thln fifteen years.
From official government statistics,
w hlch 'y. Ill be made public In Iierlln
soon,, It is learned that tho census
recently completed show a total popu
lation of 00,232,002.. 'ihls brings the
population of Ocrmany Below that of
lDOft by more, than aou.tnw,
The census shdw that the nutlon
owns 3,000,000 horses, 10,500,000 cows,
G.OOOtfXK) sheep, ll.nOO.OOO pigs, 4,
000,000 goats, M ,000,000 poultry and
7,fJOO,000 dogs.
.'Itt 1014 Germany owned about 22,
OOOTOOO cattle andLln,100 21,000,000.
In 1010 Germany; had close to 0.",
000,000 head. ' .
German offlclnla point oit that mncli
of the decrease shown Intho pattle cen
sus was due to an epldemld-of hoof and
mouth disease and j tho fatt-thot un
derfeeding curtailed breeding. 'V'.
Before the war uermany nan ao.owu,
000 pigs, but more than half were
slaughtered in order to conserve Deer.
Tho one bright Knot in the cattle cen
sus Is seen In the goat population,
with every peasant and many
city people owning goats, of which
there are now 1,000,000 more than be
fore the war.

YE always found the store of J.
Franklin Miller, nt 1612 Chest
nut Street, a moat fascinating
place, nnd now that they've an-
jounced a 20 per cent discount from
j tlie selling price of the greater inirt
qf their ntock, one finds oneself vis
iting the store every day, for Just
I one more much-needed kitchen uten
sil. Perhaps it Is nn aluminum
saucepan or an agate frying pan or
a new dustbrusn or the electric
tooBter that one has been promising
dneeelf to buy. There are so many
inteTrcating things at such very in
teresting prices thnt one is really
able to equip a kitchen nt a most
reasonable figure. (Ilrides, plente
note.) And many other things be
aides kitchen utensils ore included
in tho sale for instance, 'thermos
3cts, including carafe, tumbler and
tray.

XTRAORDINARILY smart are

They originally sold at $12.60 to
$19.60.. Miss Jenkins, the buyer,

when I told you of tho choco

nt a special price, that there would
be such a ready response to my Invi
tation that some of your needs must
go unsatisfied. Mr. Krusc promises
another butter cream special very
noon, however. In the meantime J
hav another interesting announce
ment to moke. It will please espe
cially those of you who like nuts ana
dates. Today and tomorrow you
may have cream walnuts, cream
dates and maple pecans for 50 cm"
a pound. You'll find them delicious.
You'll bo disposed to agree witti
thoso who say that "KniBe's candy is
the bcBt-in town" once you've tsstM
this wcek'a special.
IT'S quite important mat ior -engagement

the finest diamonds can bo subjected
