Cy Dietz' Big Job.

From the nature Of the proposals submitted
to the Illinois constitutional convention it is
quite evident that the committee Of which c.
f. Dietz Of Moline is chairman is going to
have plenty to do AS was suspected the ten
dency is to drag in every sort Of provision or
regulation which has occurred to anybody,
without reference to whether it is proper mat
ter for Incorporating in constitution or not.
In the view Of some Of the delegates everything
from home rule for Chicago to regulation Of
the size OF the spout of the village pump is
legitimate grist for the convention. No mat
ter is so inconsequential that it is impossible
to find anyone willing to submit it for con-
sideration and so the cranks and those with
private axes to grind are having their innings.
The-post at the hopper to determine what
is fit to go to the constitutional millstones is
one of no small responsibility. MIR. Dietz has
been highly complimented. The manner in
which he discharges his duties will largely
determine the volume of the conventions
output
In any event there probably will be enough
material left in the refuse bin to keep legis-
latures Of the future grinding for several years.

Half an hour later, cold and
heart sore, she unsteadily mounted
the stairs in the boarding house
to her room.
Anna opened the door and Sallv

1t was all a mistake, Anna" she
walled. "You were right; and now
I've lost Peter, too"
Hush" exclaimed Anna dr.v.
ing the grief-stricken girl into the
room and closing the door. Things
aren't SO bad, honey. Come. cheer
up, SO we can get dressed and ready

Repaving Twentieth Street.

The average driver. of an automobile has
map Of the city's streets Somewhere in the back
of his head. They are all charted for bumps,
turns, dangerous intersections, etc. When the
problem of getting from one part Of town to
another is put up to him the image comes up
in his mind and a route quickly suggests itself.
By experience he has learned where to drive
to minimize the strain upon himself and the
wear and tear on his car.
One Of the stretches Of pavement that no
sane automobilist ever negotfates more than
once II he can help it is that on Twentieth
street from Seventh to Twelfth avenue. From
Twelfth south Twentieth offers the best and
generally the most direct highway between the
hill and the downtown districts. Every-driver
likes to get fair start at the bottom OF a
hill. but that is not possible on Twentieth now.
The traffic up the hill practically all follows
Nineteenth with its two joys, to Twelfth or
Thirteenth avenue and takes Twentieth at right
angles on the full grade. Cars coming down
follow the same route. From Twelfth avenue
north to Seventh, Twentieth is as little fire.
quented as country lane.
Everybody agrees that the resurfacing of
Twentieth from Seventh to Twelfth should
be completed. Auditing property certainly
is valuable enough to stand the assess
ment and benefits would justify the ex-
pense. Still, for number Of years the i'm
provement has been postponed because inter-
ested owners could not agree on this or that
detail. Plainly il the work is deferred till
everybody is satisfied it never will be done
People who live on Twentieth nearly an
have automobiles, but they do as little driving
as possible in front Of their own premises.
They make free use however, Of the better
improved thoroughfares that others pay for. 1t
is about time for them to make contribution
for the convenience of motorists in general.
II they can't agree on the material or the width
OF the street they should let others make a
decision for them.

What's I'm a Name?
by MILDRED MARSHALL
Copyright 1919. by the Wheeler Syndicate. Incl

-S Olive.
Olive, the sign of peace and JOY,
is one of the few feminine names
which has no early Greek or Latin
origin. It first appears in
Italy, the land OF the olive tree,
whose branches have come to be
the symbol of peace and harmony.
Etymologists claim that, though it
is closely associated with the Ital-
ian Oliviero, it would never have
achieved popularity as a name but
for the Teutonic Olaf (forefathers
relic).
Oliviero, the paladin Of Charlie
magne, was most frequently in use
among all those of the circle Of
paladins. and gave rise to the say
ing which has since become a prov
erb, Giving a Rowland for an
Oliver" English knights, Of high,
chivalrous repute. frequently bore
the name of Oliver until the emf
nence Of the protector made "old
Noll" a word Of hate among the
cavaliers.
The feminine form, Olive, which
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1920-01-29

was invented in Italy was brought
to England BY the influx Of Ital-
ian literature in the Tudor reign,
Its form was then Olivia and as
such it still has great vogue, es-
pecially in literature and poetry.
Goldsmith calls the unfortunate
daughter Of his inimitable Vicar
Of Wakefield" Olivia, and many
other heroipes of that literary per-
iod bore the same name.
1t is only OF recent years that
Olive gained preference over Olivia.
The change came about in England,
but was not long in reaching this
country. and now Olive is a popu-'
lar and fashionable name here.
The fire opal is the gem assign
ed to her. Its glowing, sver-chsng-
ing heart, which harbors mis-
chievous pixie, according to the
legend, promises good fortune to
her for whom it is intended as an
ornament and a talisman. The
chrysanthemum is her flower.
Wednesday is her lucky day and )
her lucky number.
