ALICE
Alice, curiouGly enough, is mans
name, not a woman's. Originally it
was given to the sons Of the family,
and is without doubt derived from the
Anglo-SaXon Adelights, OF which the
feminine form was Adelgisa. 1t means
noble; in both its masculine and fem
mime form.
It is clear that Alice represents
Adelgis and not Adelgisa and that the
proper feminine form would be Aliza.
Some believe that the Eliza, gener-
ally thought to be a derivative Of
Elizabeth, is this missing form. For
proof Of AIiZa as the representative
of Adelsiza, the Liber Vitas of Dur
ham records the changes in AdelsiZa
from the first noble lady Of that name
who laid her gifts upon the altar.
By contraction, it becomes by steps,
Adeliza, Aaliza, and Aliza.
Adliza is still given to daughters
of noble families in Europe Adaliz.
4Adliz and finally Ais. are other con-
fractions. Alicia is deriyative which
represents an effort at euphony lack
ing in Alisa, but Alison is not so de-
rived. as is popularity supposed, but
has a completely different origin.
Alice is purely English with slight
Teutonic flavor. since another expla.
nation of it's origin is that the name is
derived from the feminine Adalhert
or Adelchen, signifying daughter" in
FARMLAND. Alix or Alisa in Lombardy
was naturalized in England when
AK la Belle married Henry. l.
Alexandria is the tailsmanic stone
of Alice. 1t is found in the emerald
mines Of Russia. and its splendid
green, which changes pulsatingly to
solumbine red, makes it representative
therefored honored as national
stone. The Russians believe that it
brings great good fortune. 1t denotes
hope when dreamed of; indicates
much to look forward to. Monday is
Alice's lucky day, and her lucky
number. Her flower is the white
hawthorne, which means hope.
Alice has been additionally sur.
rounded by all the virtues and SIM
plicity which man Is supposed to re-
sire in woman. Indeed, the name is
POLITICALLY synonymous with true
blue" 1t has been immortalized in
the old song Ben Bolt:
"Oh do you remember Sweet Alice,
Ben Bolt;
Sweet Alice with hair so brown;
Who thrilled with delight when you
gave her a smile
And trembled with fear at your
frown?"

Good Evening
~ ROY K. MoULT0N
IT'S Different NOW


He stayed out each evening
Until it was late:
It was his ambition
To celebrate.
He had costly dinners,
Played poker a lot.
And didn't care much
Whether school kept or not.
When his wife was away
For the summer.
Now he's working the lawn mower,
And sticking round home;
He's very discreet and does
Not care to roam.
He's mild and he's tame.
And he's walking the chalk.
And he's not bossy or
Gay in his talk,
For his wife is at home.
Trousers sure do come high in Ok
lahoma. II you don't believe it, ask

An increased wheat acreage was

a golden harvest. Most of the wheat

which fact together with a late and
open fall, gave the crop fine start.
Rye and barley also look well.
On account Of the mildness of the

Of all kinds has wintered well, and
