SHOW NAMED FOR A VALLEY
Word Vaudeville" Are Ignorant
Of Its Origin.

The Fairest Lady turned to her es-
cort at the variety show the other
night during the intermission and
asked him where the word "vaude-
vile" came from anyway.
'Movies" is simple, she said Any
one can trace the origin of the word
coined by Young America and now
generally used. The British "cinema"
applied TO cinematograph pictures is
also easily traced.
1t wasn't until next day that the es-
cort, who had pretended not to hear
the Fairest Lady's question about
vaudeville, got chance to look II up.
Then he found that the word came
from the French "Val de Vire"-a val
ley In Normandy where originated
many humorous and satirical drinking
songs that became popular all over
France-known by the name Of the
place of their origin. Eventually the
word became corrupted TO "vaude-
vile" and was applied to certain
kind of popular song. It's application
was limited to such songs until the
end of the Eighteenth century, when
