"Ping-pong has bounded into popularity mere suddenly than any other game.

Irish house • English Names For Towns. , Many names of towns in England. 'rave been appropriated for a similar dse in this country. These names fre- nuently indicate in themselves the ori- gin of the tovvus. For instance, names 0 tiding in "chester" or "cester" or "cas- ter," such as Dorchester,Worcester and 14ancaster, undoubtedly apply to sites of old military settlements or camps, and the termination is derived from "castra," the Latin word for camp. if the name of a place ends in "coin," like Lincoln, then it too, Is of Roman origin, because the Lathe word for col- ony is colonia. When the syllable "by" 6nds the word, like Rugby, we then know that the Danes are responsible for the name, for the. Danish word for town is by. Judicial Differentiation.
