name, like the heroine OF the

but had her origin rather in ancient

The first Camilla was a warlike
nymph dedicated 10 the service OF
Diana, goddess OF the chase. She
was celebrated in the Aeneid, as

Etruscan word and was applied to

solemn office. Thus Camilla came 20

connection can be established with
the exquisite white flower with
which IL is frequently confused in
modern times, especially by the
French. The history OF Camilla
shows that she was taken over by
the French because they have al

their means
Are dressing the family. the

In five dollar suits that are built Of

And vow they'll continue the Gus

Smith with a groan,
THE cost Of existence is quite be-
yond reach,
This season we'll need to conserve
For theater tickets cost five dol
lars each"
The Joneses are saving on mutton
and beef
They've found they can live on
short rations of meat;
Their butcher they say is a price
boosting thief.
But nevertheless human beings
must eat
These prices are fearful" says
Jones with a sigh.
The profiteer grafters are going
too far;
We must save our money, for gas is
so hign,
And we've got a terrible hog of a
car"
The Browns have removed TO a half
portion flat,
They had TO come down to the an
nual rent;
With three 10 a room they are
crowded at that.
But still they aver they are wholly
content,
'It isn't as big as It might be-" says
Brown,
"But we thought II was best TO
live cheap for a spell.
We will need a big wad when we
move out OF town
To spend the hot months in high
priced hotel"
