( i 7 Equalization Of Reserve Bank Rates Predicted District Governors and Mrm .ben of Federal Board Agree To Recommend Uniform . Charge in All District!. By E. C SNYDER. Wsafclastoa Csrssssi sM Omaha Rsa Washington, Oct 28. There is lUtm of light the ad. Insofar is the intereit rate charged by the federal reserve bank In the Tenth federal dis- trict affect loans on agricultural products and farms, growing out of the meeting of the membert of the federal reserve boird with the gov ernor of all the district banks which have been in session in Washington this week. Nebraska agricultural Interest have been greatly perturbed over the teeming disparity between the In terest charge in other reserve dis tricts and in the tenth, and the mem ber of congress from the prairie atate are in receipt of a series of resolution passed by the state bank ing association asking them to get busy and bring about a reduction of Interest charges. This, it is believed, will be brought bout in the very near future, for it is understood that the governor of all the districts, together with the member of the federal reserve board. have unanimously agreed to recom mend a uniform rate of interest In HI reserve districts in the United States. Just when this notice will go out x a matter ot conjecture, but it is fenerally agreed that the governor if the several screrve district real ize the importance of making a re duction to meet agricultural demands and so far as they are concerned they indicate a willingness to co operate in stabilizing conditions in the middle west. Congressman McLaughlin, who has Interested himself particularly in matter of this character, said that he had a conversation with Governor Harding of the reserve board today ana tnat lie teit that recommenda tions for relief to the sorely dis tressed sections of the western coun try would be issued within a very short time.

IRVING KING. . Sunday's Baby. , There are several current super stitions with regard to birth and ba byhood which are clearly related to sun-worship. Some of them have al ready been noticed in this series. The superstition which -is general in the United Statesj .and . is 'found also' in England, which assigns Sunday as a propitious day on which to be born is one of these survivals from the' days of our remote sun-worshipping ancestors. v The bairn that is born on fair Sun day - Is bonny and loving and blith and gay.". ' Is the way they put it in Massa chusetts and in New York they say: "The child that is born on the Sab bath day . Is blitb and bonny, good and gay." In many sections the saying runs "Sunday's child shall never know want." This superstition is of close kin to the one which says that 'the baby must be taken first into , the sun on Sunday" a superstition al ready noticed. There is another com mon superstition which connects the sun with that important event in a person's life,1 his birth. It is the one which says that "Thursday has one lucky hour, just before sunrise, for birth." The superstition under dis cussion is a survival of the ancient idea that the child born on the day dedicated to the sun is under spe cial protection of the sun-god. We have dedicated the first and he sec ond days of the week to the sun and the moon, respectively, and the re maining five to other heathen gods. So it is not at all surprising that concomitant superstitions still ex ist in modern folk-lore. (Copyright, MM. bjr tin MeClur News paper Syndicate.)
