Just then Ed's East End friend camo In and wo asked him and ho said ho thought It was named by a forolgnor who didn't know nbout English Just as a foreig ner must havo named horse-radish which In English has nothing to do with cither horses or radishes. Ed said "That's so'' and wo did too. Then wo said wo had hoard of a coat hanger and wo asked Ed If ho thought an aoroplano looked onough llko :i coat hanger so thoy would call it that and ho said It was tho building that was called a hangar and not the piano and wo said "Is that so?" nnd Ed said "That's so, and wo got mad nnd told , Ed a fow things which his East End , Frlond said wo should not havo told j h i in and ns Ed scorned to tako If all right wo got a llttlo bolder and whon wo said some people didn't kno(w . whoro tho whools woro Ed got mad nnd when ho said for us to got out of thore or ho would cuckoo somo ono wo got out about aB fast as wo could. 1 And wo wont ovor and told tho haunt- ' cd hUBband nnd now wo know. , CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION v MEETING Ha "A.
