GERALDINE.

Morse mythology is filled with
valiant names which are the fore
runner of many of our feminine
proper names in currant use today.
Geraldine is one such and her his

Valkyries drove their splendid char
lots over the fields Of conflict in the
land of the midnight sun. 1t means
SPAR power, thus making its for
tunate possessor one Of the company
OF battle maids so honored by those
of Boandanavial blood.
From Norway and Sweden. the
forerunner of Geraldine made its
appearance among the Anglo -Saxor s
as st. Gerhold, which was changed
to Gerald and because of the saint
" reputation Of its first bearer. the
masculine name became enormously
popular in England, where it is
still a favOrite in the aristocratic
class. "Morte d'Arthur' added to the
vogue of Gerald, since Gareth, or

whom Surrey made the heroine of
his poetry under the title Of Fair
Geraldine. The name won imme-

and was straightway taken up by all
the fashionable damsels of that day.
Germany accepted it but changed it
later to Gerhardine. 1t also pen
etrated Italy, here it became Ger

preserved il in its original form.
OF all the famous Geraldines, the
most noted Of these times is the

MIDAS AND THE PROFITEERs

MIDAS AND THE PROFTTEERS.
A King named Midas lived of old,
Who had a magic touch
Which turned to eighteen-karat
gold
The food and chairs and such.
1t tickled Midas quite a bit
To have a talent which.
If he made careful use Of il,
Seemed sure to make him rich.
But when he got forgetful, and,
With clownish greed imbued.
Picked up a beefsteak with his
hand
1t ruined it as food.
If he but touched his coat or vest,
He turned to gold the same.
And Midas couldn't get undressed
Until the blacksmith came.
With gold for clothes. with gold
for eats.
With gold for socks and shoes,
With gold for nightshirts and for
sheets.
And even gold for booze.
King Midas was fed up on gold,
And presently. despite
The handsome fortune he controlled
He shuffled off one night.
A lesson for the profiteers
This tragic tale should be;
They've turned to gold in recent
years
Whatever they can see
And yet the Kings unhappy fate
Don't worry them g bit,
Because they've noticed that, TO
date.
THEY'VE got away with IL
