ELAINE

a SOUTHERN favorite is Elaine,

Civil war, every proud family of south

spair of many loyelorn southern gal

But Elaine was net born in the
South by any matter of means. Her
origin dates back to the days of beau
.iful Helen Of Troy, when the name
Helen, coming from the Greek helios,
meaning light, was permitted to drop
Its initial "h" and become Ellen. In
Cambria, however, this was too lacking
In poetry to be popular and it was
called Elayne. 1t occurred under that
spelling in the registers of early times
and thus explains the gentle Lady
Elayne, mother of Sir Galahad, whom
Tennyson makes his Lady of Shalott.
The name came to prominence again

STATION ETIQUETTE
(Copyright.)

Powerful indeed is the empire of habit.
Publius Syrus.
THO SAY that the well-bred person
is on time when he takes train
might be unfair. But it is fact the
well-bred person shows his consider
alton for others in his actions, and
the person who comes into the station
behind time, pushes by other people,
runs into them with his travelling bag,
summons porter CURLY and tries to
push ahead of others at the ticket
window, is acting in an inconsiderate
manner. He is also making himself
conspicuous, and the well-bred per-
son does not attract undue attention
to himself in public places.
1t is nothing to be ashamed of if one
has Travelled but little, and some ex-
cellent folk have perhaps never been
in railroad train more than once or
twice in their lives. Still it is but
natural that we should all want to
appear to be at ease when we travel,
and not to proclaim by our manners
that we have never been about before.
Your conduct in the railroad station
should therefore be composed and un-
ruflled. If you have time to idle
away before train time it is quite all
right to go to the newsstand and pur-
chase paper or magazine and read
it; but there is no reason why YOU
should have to invest in chewing gum,
sailed nuts and gum drops, weigh
yourself, and have your fortune told
by one of the penny-in- the-slot ma

Common Errors in English and
How to Avoid Them
THE USE OF "THE."

This little word, which is called
i by grammarians the definite arti-
lie, is often misused, being placed in
sentences where it does not belong,
md being left out where it should
'e used. Often such misuse causes
misunderstanding of the meaning of
The writer or speaker. For example.
suppose you say, "The president and
secretary of the lodge attended the
5nereting. This is correct If the Of
ices of president and secretary are
united in one person that is, if there
IS one man who is both president and
secretary. But But # # there are two men,
one Of whom is the president and the
other is the secretary, the sentence
should read, ''The president and the
secretary Of the lodge attended the
meeting" The article should be re-
tpeated; then there is no room for mis-
understanding the speaker or the
writer n
When we say, "The black and white
horse" we mean one horse which is
marked with the two colors; but when
we say, 'The black horse and the
white horse" we mean two horses. one
Black and one white.

Facts about your name its history meaning whence it was
derived; significance your lucky day and lucky jewel
By MILDRED MARSHALL

tragic fate is the source of song and
story in the 'Idyils of the King" Her
Irish prototype was Elayne or Eileen
O'Brien, who likewise met with trag-
ic end, taking her own life after being
carried away to Castle Knock by Rog-
er Tyrrel, one of the fierce Anglo
Normans.
Tennyson's description of Elaine is
exquisite:
Where could be found face daintier? Than
From forehead down to foot perfect
From foot to forehead exGuisitely turned
Fair she was. my king
Pure as you ever wish your knights to he
To doubt her fairness were to want an
To doubt her pureness were to want a
heart
Elaine's talismanic gem is the pearl,
giyer of charm and love and purity
fitting jewel for SO lovely natae. The
lily is her flower, a fact which Tenny-
son uses with such touching pathos in
describing the funeral bier of the dead
Elaine. Monday is her lucky day and
2 her lucky number.

SOME THING TO
THINK ABOUT
By F. "A. WALKER


e
# and nope to keep It going.
All It requires is q desire to make
people happy and a determination to
make the desire working reality.
II - i. ~ 4;
II is a strange thing that We seem
more willing always to spread the un-
pleasant news than the pleasant.
i The rumor that Jack has lost his
Job gets twice as prompt circulation
as the fact that Jill has received a
promotion. I wonder why
We can pass along so many help
Sful things. Encoura cement. Enthusi-
q assn. Appreciation. Sympath Ev-
seryone of them Without a penny Of
cost, but so full Of the profit Of salts
faction, if we do 1t with generous
spirit.
The parable of the two debtors has
always seemed to me one OF the most
vivid of the illustrations by which
Jesus taught his great truths. You
will find the story in the la tte:. ;,;.s
of the eighteenth chapter of st.
Matthew.
The trouble with the servant Of the
king was that he did not pass along
to the man who owed him the char
table treatment which his master had
shown in forgfying him the debt he
owed.
II you have something good, some
thing helpful, something that will make
another happier pass it along. It is
a profitable proceeding.

THE Rom AN c E Of W 0RDSI
AAssAsslN..

II N 1920 there was founded IN
= Asia a secret society known
as the davis or Devoted
Ones, the members OF which
were pledged to implicit blind
obedience to the orders OF their
\ superiors. no matter what di-
Tection these orders might take. 4
Hassan ben Sabbah, the Per
sian, who founded the dreaded
order, was extremely explicit IN
the rules he laid down for the
government Of the organization,
which was partly religious and
partly secular in nature. The
4 members Of the lower sections
of the society were kept ia total
ignorance OF the teachings and
aims Of the body to which they
belonged, and it was Impressed
upon them that unfailing obe-
dience was their only key to
success in this life and happi-
ness in the next. sS
In order to give them q fore
taste of the joys which were In
store for them, provided they
followed instructions, Hassan
ben Sabbah directed that they
be given a specified ration Of
ssiassfiiisil, or hemp narcotic
which produced effects an
alogous to those resulting from
the use of opium and from this
practice the members of the So
ciety became known as has
hashin or hemp-eaters. Euro
peans slightly altered the word
to assassin" and applied 1t to
anyone guilty of murder, this
crime being a favorite among
the Fedavis.

He was passing along little of
the joy of life. He was distributing
smiles. BIS
There is manufacturing establish
meat up In New England, not a big
enterprise. It is "a sort ofssfamily aft
fair in which all the workmen and
their wives and sweethaarts have a
more than e-envelopes interest.
The principal reason IFS that the
man who started it decided that he
was going to pass along the joy of
the success, if it was success, and

day the little factory opened.

If particularly big order comes
in he writes q little bulletin about 1t
end gives; It tt to the superintendent
and at the bottom of the slip Of
paper are always the words pass It

That means that everybody in the
factory knows the good news almost
as soon as the owner does.

showed larger than usual he had the
