March, the fifth month of the year. The first of May has always been a gala day. The May festival goes back to the Floralia festival of the Romans, which probably came in the first place from India. In England, as we learn from Chaucer and Shakespeare, it was customary during the middle ages for all, both high and low — even the court itself — to go out on the first May morning at an early hour "to fetch the flowers fresh." The fairest maid of the village was crowned with flowers as Queen of the May. Every town and village, too, had its fixed pole — called the Maypole — on which each May-morning were hung wreaths of flowers, and round which the people danced in rings most of the day. Roman Catholics celebrate the month as the Virgin's month.
# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Ergias

​E'RGIAS (Ἐργίας) of Rhodes, is mentioned as the author of a work on his native island. (Athen. viii. p. 360.) Gesner and others are of opinion that Ergias is the same person as Erxias, who was the author of Κολοφωνιακά. (Athen. xiii. p. 561.) But which of the two names, Ergias or Erxias, is the correct one, cannot be determined.[L. S.]
# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Erginus 1.

​ERGI'NUS (Ἐργῖνος), a son of Clymenus and Buzyge or Budeia, was king of Orchomenos. After Clymenus was killed by Perieres at the festival of the Onchestian Poseidon, Erginus, his eldest son, who succeeded him as king, undertook to avenge the death of his father. He marched against Thebes, and surpassing the enemy in the number of his horsemen, he killed many Thebans, and compelled them to a treaty, in which they bound themselves to pay him for twenty years an annual tribute of 100 oxen. Heracles once met the heralds of Erginus, who were going to demand the usual tribute: he cut off their ears and noses, tied their hands behind their backs, and thus sent them to Erginus, saying that this was his tribute. Erginus now undertook a second expedition against Thebes, but was defeated and slain by Heracles, whom Athena had provided with arms. (Apollod. ii. 4. § 11; Diod. iv. 10; Strab. ix. p. 4l4; Eustath. ad Hom. p. 272; Eurip. Herc. fur. 220; Theocrit. xvi. 105.) Pausanias (ix. 37. § 2, &c.), who agrees with the other writers in the first part of the mythus, states, that Erginus made peace with Heracles, and devoted all his energy to the promotion of the prosperity of his kingdom. In this manner Erginus arrived at an advanced age without having either wife or children: but, as he did not wish any longer to live alone, he consulted the Delphic oracle, which advised him to take a youthful wife. This he did, and became by her the father of Trophonius and Agamedes, or, according to Eustathius (l.c.) of Azeus. Erginus is also mentioned among the Argonauts, and is said to have succeeded Tiphys

To One—
On whose silvered locks lightly rest the crown of fourscore and seven well spent years: A favoured Child of Nature, who has brought to the snows of December the May time spirit. For whom each whispering treetop has a song; to whom each tiny rivulet tells a story, and each flower and stone conveys a message. One who has traversed his country's breadth; who has scaled her lofty summits; who has found rest in her peaceful valleys.
A man of ideals; of high principles; of strong convictions; of warm emotions;
A student; a thinker; a philosopher; a poet, clothing the humble scenes of life with pure imagery and quaint diction.
A Gentleman of the Old School; whose innate courtesy and noble dignity, whose fine culture and keen intelligence place him as a peer among his fellows; yet whose simplicity and kindliness make for him friends among all classes.
To such an One—Our Neighbor, Our Friend; Jonathan E. Hoag—We render this humble tribute.

# At the Bars of Memory and Other Poems/"Andy" Lockhart

"Andy" Lockhart
This little book of poems is issued by the Truth and Light Publishing House as an aid to Mr. Lockhart. I know him personally and to know him is to honor and admire him. He exposed the political heelers, boot-leggers, time servers and male harlots who were grafting and corrupting his state and making it a den of thieves. The account of his arrest, trial and the imposing of a sentence of three and one half years in the pentitentary at Leavensworth, Kans. is too long a story for this brief introductory.
Recently an aspirant to journalistic fame asked Brisbane what book to read in order that he become a master of vivid and vigorous English. The noted writer instantly advised the reading of "Pilgrims Progress" with the statement that the literature produced in jail was the literature that lived through the ages.
As I understand it some of the poems in this little volumne were written by Lockhart while behind the bars of the penitentary at Leavensworth. Kans. These verses will live long after the author has become dust and ashes. I think you will agree with me that the man who penned these lines never harbored a criminal thought.
He fought on the side of the poor, the oppressed and the outcast, and in his breast there is a heart as true and tender as ever vitalized a human life. The friends who understand the life of "Andy" Lockhart know that there was one near and dear to him who sleeps beneath the flowers in Summer and the snows in winter and that one is referred to in "The Hunger" and other poems in the following pages.
The fight for Lockhart's liberty will continue before the board of pardons and every copy of this book sold will help this friend of humanity a little in his fight for LIBERTY.
Fraternally yours,
WM. LLOYD CLARK.

Also known as the Pakistan Declaration, this document, published January 28, 1933, presents the idea of the creation of a Muslim state in the Indian subcontinent.
The PNM (Pakistan National Movement) was organised and founded by CH. Tahmat Ali in 1933, Pakistan National Movement is also honor to creati the name Pakistan, for an independed and separate Muslim country in sub-continent.

He organised the movement by publishing his pamphlet.
The author discribed the fundamentals of the political ratioale of the movement by stated it as Indianism. He explained Indianism as the basic force which dominated entire sub-continent and defeated the strugle of their public to improve it. It was a destructive tool to victimiz men and whole nations, distorting religiouse feelings and try to enslave at least half of the continent of the Asia. It manifested the establishment of the Indian National Congress. The basic motive of this Congress was to organise an All India Federation. The congress had designated all British possessions in South Asia as India denied to the non Indian nations the right to their own nationhood, and by making pretentious claims, stamped Indian nationality on the peoples.
It was the main idea underlying the suggestion for an all India federal constitution. The Pakistan National Movement was formed to struggle against this federation. The Pakistan Declaration titled Now or Never, Are We to Live or Perish Forever? was a pamphlet published on 28 January 1933 by Ch. Rahmat Ali, in which the first time the word Pakistan was used and was presented it in the round table conference in 1933. The document started with this famous sentence, At this solemn hour in the history of India, when British and Indian statesmen are laying the foundations of a Federal Constitution for that land, we address this appeal to you, in the name of our common heritage, on behalf of our thirty million Muslim brethren who live in PAKSTAN - by which we mean the five Northern units of India, Viz: Punjab, North-West Frontier Province (Afghan Province), Kashmir, Sind and Baluchistan. This documents asked that the five Northern units of India, Punjab, North-West Frontier Province (Afghan Province), Kashmir, Sindh and Baluchistan become a state independent of the proposed Indian Federation.

# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Evenius

​EVE'NIUS (Εὐήνιος), a seer of Apollonia, and father of Deiphonus. He was one of the most distinguished citizens of Apollonia; and one night, when he was tending the sheep of Helios, which the noble Apolloniatae had to do in turns, the flock was attacked by wolves, and sixty sheep were killed. Evenius said nothing of the occurrence, but intended to purchase new sheep, and thus to make up for the loss. But the thing became known, and Evenius was brought to trial. He was deprived of his office, and his eyes were put out as a punishment for his carelessness and negligence. Hereupon the earth ceased to produce fruit, and the sheep of Helios ceased to produce young. Two oracles were consulted, and the answer was, that Evenius had been punished unjustly, for that the gods themselves had sent the wolves among the sheep, and that the calamity under which Apollonia was suffering should not cease until Evenius should have received all the reparation he might desire. A number of citizens accordingly waited upon Evenius, and without mentioning the oracles, they asked him in the course of their conversation, what reparation he would demand, if the Apolloniatae should be willing to make any. Evenius, in his ignorance of the oracles, merely asked for two acres of the best land in Apollonia and the finest house in the city. The deputies then said that the Apolloniatae would grant him what he asked for, in accordance with the oracle. Evenius was indignant when he heard how he had been deceived; but the gods gave him a compensation by bestowing upon him the gift of prophecy. (Herod. ix. 92–95; Conon. Narrat. 30, who calls him Peithenius instead of Evenius.)[L. S.]

# Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology/Evenus 2.

​EVE'NUS (Εὔηνος or Εὐηνός, but the former is more correct). In the Greek Anthology there are sixteen epigrams under this name, which are, however, the productions of different poets. (Brunck, Anal. vol. i. pp. 164–167; Jacobs, Anth. Graec. vol. i. pp. 96–99.) In the Vatican MS. some of the epigrams are headed Ευΐνου, the 7th is headed Εὐήνου Ἀσκαλωνίτου, the 12th Εὐΐνου Ἀθηναίου, the 14th Εὐήνου Σικελιώτου, and the last Εὐήνου γραμματικοῦ.
The best known poets of this name are two elegiac poets of Paros, mentioned by Eratosthenes (ap. Harpocrat. s. v. Εὔηνος), who says that only the younger was celebrated, and that one of them (he does not say which) was mentioned by Plato. There are, in fact, several passages in which Plato refers to Evenus, somewhat ironically, as at once a sophist or philosopher and a poet. (Apolog. Socr. p. 20, b., Phaed. p. 60, d., Phaedr. p. 267, a.) According to Maximus Tyrius (Diss. xxxviii. 4. p. 225), Evenus was the instructor of Socrates in poetry, a statement which derives some countenance from a passage in Plato (Phaed. l. c.), from which it may also be inferred that Evenus was alive at the time of Socrates’s death, but at such an advanced age that he was likely soon to follow him. Eusebius (Chron. Arm.) places him at the 80th Olympiad (B.C. 460) and onwards. His poetry was gnomic, that is, it formed the vehicle for expressing philosophic maxims and opinions. The first six of the epigrams in the Anthology are of this character, and may therefore be ascribed to him with tolerable certainty. Perhaps, too, the fifteenth should be assigned to him.
The other Evenus of Paros wrote Ἑρωτικά, as we learn from the express testimony of Artemidorus (Oneirocr. i. 5), and from a passage of Arrian (Epictet. iv. 9), in which Evenus is mentioned in conjunction with Aristeides. [See vol. i. p. 296.] A few other fragments of his poetry are extant. Among them is a line which Aristotle (Metaphys. iv. 5, Eth. Eudem. ii. 7) and Plutarch (Moral. ii. p. 1102, c.) quote by the name of Evenus, but which is found in one of the elegies of Theognis (vv. 467–474), whence it is supposed that that elegy should be ascribed to Evenus. There are also two hexameters of Evenus. (Aristot. Eth. Nicom. vii. 11.)
None of the epigrams in the Anthology are expressly assigned to this Evenus; but it is not unlikely that the 12th is his. If the 8th and 9th, on the Cnidian Aphrodite of Praxiteles, and the 10th and 11th, on Myron’s cow, are his, which seems not improbable, then his date would be fixed. Otherwise it is very difficult to determine whether he lived before or after the other Evenus. As he was certainly less famous than the contemporary of Socrates, the statement of Eratosthenes that only the younger was celebrated, would imply that he lived before him: and this view is maintained, in opposition to the general opinion of

Mela, ii. 1. § 3; Plin. iv. 26, x. 30; Avien. 228; Priscian, 92: Aia-burun), the great southern headland of the Crimea, which, looking across the Euxine to the promontory of Casambis on the coast of Asia Minor, divides it, as it were, into two parts by a line which the imagination supplies between the 31st and 32d degrees of longitude, and which, according to the ancients, gave the whole sea the shape of a Scythian bow. The two points of land are so remarkable, that many navigators, as Strabo (ii. p. 124, vii. p. 309, xi. p. 496, xii. p. 545) reports, affirmed that they had in sailing between them seen both lands to the N. and S. at once, though the distance between the two capes is 2500 stadia. According to Plutarch (De Flum. p. 28), it was called by the natives Brixaba (Βρίξαβα), which meant Ram’s Head. Cape Aia, the southern-most of the three headlands, is described as a very high, bluff, bold-looking land, much like the North Foreland, but much higher, and in a sketch of the coast line it is estimated at about 1200 feet, the same elevation which is assigned to it by Pallas.

Stephanus (s. v.) quotes the verse of Apollonius. We may assume that it was in the neighbourhood of Cromna and Cytorus. Strabo (p. 545) observes of the line in Homer (Il. ii. 855),—
Κρῶμνάν τ ᾽ Αἰγιαλόν τε καὶ ὑψηλοὺς Ἐρυθίνους,—
that some persons write Κώβιαλον in place of Αἰγιαλόν. Crobialus and Cobialus seem to be the same place, as Cramer observes. If, then, Crobialus is the same as Aegialos, it is that part of the Paphlagonian coast, which extends in a long line for more than 100 stadia, immediately east of Cytorus.[ G. L. ]
