CHLOE.


One Of the quaintest feminine
names In common usage today is
Chloe. Through it's popularity in
the south, it has long been regarded
as a southern name. an outgrowth
of the soft slurring dialect OF the
Creoles, but curiously enough, Chloe
is a product OF ancient Greece. She
comes into being through the bene-
VIOLENT Greek Goddess Demeter.
In some parts Of Greece, Demeter
was worshipped as the gloomy win
terly earth. but later she was per-
sonified as a goddess clad in black,
in mourning for her daughter, Per-
sephine who had been carried off
by the ruler OF the Dark Kingdoms
under the earth.
But Demeter is more generally
regarded as the Goddess of Alum
dant Harvest and hence Chloe,
which signifies blooming. was her
summer epithet The name indi-
Gates her as the virdant. the pro-
tectress of green fields. IL was
frequently used by the Greeks and

HERE'S A DANDY WAY TO PASS
4 QUIET SUNDAY.

All the thrill OF historical ro-
nance may be found these days in
your boys arithmetic book. In it's
pages flourish farmers who still sell
potatoes for sc cents a bushel and
grocers who offer eggs in any guam
tity for "a cents a dozen.
And as for sugar-just listen TO
this from the arithmetic:
"A grocer has 10 barrels of
sugar. each containing 40 pounds.
II he selis-the sugar for six cents a
pound how much money will he
have 4"
In this book dwell prosperous
grocers who have bargain sales of
butter at "a cents a pound. and low
able milkmen who stick 10 the old
Irice OF eight cents a quart. re-
CARELESS Of what milkmen outside
the books have done.
No wonder. therefore. that with
in its pages reside happy families
of six who can live on S39 a month,
as a problem:
The grocery and meat bill of a
family of six amounts 20 $50 a
month. At that rate what would a
family OF four pay for meat and
groceries per month";"
There Is talk OF revising school,
arithmetics so that their problems,
written in good old days when
sugar was six cents pound, shall
be more realistic.
But no. Let there be no change,
Never were arithmetic books such
pleasant reading as now.
They not only teach arithmetic,
but history. touching as they do up
on those happy days when a mar
ket basket could be filled for a
dollar
And IL they revise arithmetic in
accordance with the prices Of today,
who knows but what these prices
will be hopelessly out of date to-
morrow?

With one eye upon the clock,
When we heard below the grinding
And sudden, dreadful shock.
And so slowly on the pillows
We began TO dip and lift,

The propellor's broke adrift.
But the captains little daughter
Who'd been looking at the log
