"What'S in a Name?" By MILDRED MARSHALL Facts about your name; its history; mean ing; whence it was derived; significance;
 your lucky day and lucky jewel
VIRGINIA

THE real origin of Virginia is eu- A rious and somewhat unexpected. It means "fourishing'' and comes from an old Latin gems who called them selves Verginius Their name was de rived in turn from vireo, meaning to flourish, and was connected to the word ''ver" translated as spring, Vir- ginio was the name of the far-famed Orsini family.
 The more popular and prevalent be- lief regarding the origin of Virginia has always been that she came from the Latin .iirgo, meaning "a virgin" Indeed, -he first instance of her use in England was in the time of Queen Elizabeth when Sir Walter Raleigh named his American colony Virginia in honor of the Virgin Queen.
 It was under similar belief that Bernadin de St. Pierre called the hero- inc of his tropical Arcadian romance Virginie. The widespread popularity of this story in England, France and Germany brought Virginia into enor- nous vogue throughout Europe France still adores her Virginie, and her popularity in England is assured forever out of sentimental memory of the famous queen.
 The first American colony estab- lished the name in this country. Like wise the first white child born on American soil, and named Virginia Dare did much to spread it's vogue. The South has always abounded in Virginias, which, unfortunately has been contracted to unmusical "Virgies" and "Jinnys."
 The emerald is Virginia's talis- manic stone. It promises her wisdom, prophetic vision, long youth, and charm. The hawthorne bud, England's spring flower, is Virginia's flower. Wednesday is her lucky day and 5 her lucky number.

 When Daddy heard the news of a stranger among them, he hastened down to greet him. At the first glance the newcomer seemed so tiny and odd-looking that Daddy was rather disappointed. Strangest of all, he had four leaves instead of three. But when he saw what a smile Four leaf had he liked him very much and gave him a cordial welcome.
 Not so with the clover children. They whisperedSan laughed among themselves at the queer dress. Of Course this made Teur-leaf very un- comfortable, and he pretended not to hear. Pretty soon, however, when they saw how glad he was to help them look their best and never tried to be admired himself they became more friendly Four-leaf was just bubbling over with jolly tales and soon had them waving over in laugh ter.
 H0H lllt HOley DSSS WHU llhCu o good time came over to share in the fun, and the patch grew livelier every day.
 When Four-leaf saw how much they had changed for the better, he knew his work in the patch was over and called all the Clover Children to him.
 T must leave you all soon' he said "and before I go I will tell you a secret. As long as you love one an- other you will be beautiful Anyone who is cross and bad tempered will soon grow ugly"
 ''We will remember, Four-leaf," they promised him, and waved their pretty heads in farewell as a little girl with a cry of delight stopped and picked him up.

HOW DO YOU SAY IT! By C. N. LURE Common Errors in English and How to Avoid Them
LAWFUL, AWFULLY"

E EW words that go to make up the k long list of abused terms in com mon usage of English are employed so frequently, and so enormously. as the two cited. Everything is awful, as in the following example, Do you like that cake?" one asks of the school boy. 'Yes," he replies, Its awful good" And not alone school boys and school girls, but grown men and women, fall into this error. Of course the word to be substituted for awful" or lawfully" is "yery."
 The adjective awful and the ad- verb "awfully," are derived from the word 'awe,'' which means fear or dread, mingled with reverence and ven eration." The words lawful" and Jaw fully" have their proper place in the language, but it is not that of a sub 'stitute for very"
 Very is what is known as an inten- sive; word used to give emphasis.

JAPAN FIRM Lays Bare Whole Secret Negotia tions Over Island of Yap
Negotia-


 Washington, April 18-Japan firm determination not to surrender Yap which was awarded her in the coun- ell of the league of nations, is emphat- ically stated in five notes to the Unit ed States which have been made pub lc by the State Department.
 The correspondence covers a per lod of nearly six months and lays bare the whole secret negotiations over Tap, which created one of the most serious international issues of the day.
 The correspondence reveals for the first time that not only has Japan defied the American protest against the Yap mandate, but also rejected summarily the proposal by the United States that "even if Yap should be assigned under mandate to Japan all other countries should have free and unhampered access to the island for the landing and operation of cables"

GOOD LUCK CLOVER

NNE cool morning in spring-I know NJ it was in May-when all the flow ets were coming out in their bright summer dresses, a strange little clover appeared in the velvety clover patch. Now this particular clover patch had been rather quarrelsome each spring, and each seemed afraid his neighbor would attract more attention than him. self. On that very morning there had been the greatest dispute as to the prettiest clover in the patch. Pink clover had turned up her pretty little

"COW BOYS"

THE term Cowboy" is not, as l many think, of origin in the Wild and woody West" It was first applied during the American Revolu- tion to a band of Tories who operated around Westchester county, New York, stealing cattle from both par ties impartially. The application to the men who herded cattle on the western plains came later, but was derived from the same origin.

STUDY BY ARTIST
ga.Gabie Addit On to Portraits of Ro. man Emperors and Is Only Ore Extant Done Durins En-

kome.-Tivoh, that lovely little cify
 erched above Rome, called Tibur by ne ancient Rouaus, has just gwen to tue archaeological world two new art ,fcaSures-au augusteum, or huii ,ud splendid head of Emperor Aa- sustus.
 Prof. Alessio Valle, one of the arch. ueoIogists who have made TiVoli Il opecia study, long believed that rivoH should reveal an ancient haul of importance, considering the flour, tshing state of the city in Roman days. He began to dig near a newly discovered weights and measures of- flee, also dating from the Roman em- pire, thinking that the public weights and measures must surely be near some important hall.
 He was not mistaken. He has opened up a hall with a Roman pave ment of white and green marble which looks as if it were put down this morning, so fresh is it, and the statue of Augustus, broken but with the head intact, as the picture shows, with the lifelike lines cut out of the marble by some unknown sculptor of evident genius.
 Likeness of Augustus.
 The statue is a likeness of Angus tus when he had grown old. An in- scription underneath it, which dedi- cates the statue to the gods, flor the happy return in good health of our Augustus Caesar" proves it was done during the famous emperors lifetime, a votiye offering to the gods by a loyal Tivoli citizen who signs himself NJ. Veranus Diitilus. The same man gave the public weights and measures to the city.
 History lets us date this statue be- tween E. c. 31 and A. D. II, when Emperor Augustus died near Naples, aged seventy-six. Experts say the face is the face Of "a man of fifty. In the worn lines. the ll-tempefed mouth. its upward twist at the left side, we have no tlattering picture of the great emperor, but a lifelike study by all artist who dared to cut his statue a3 he saw the human model. For this reason, and because of it's surely be- ing done in Augustus lifetime, it is a very valuable addition to the col lection of portraits of the Roman emperors, and probably the only one extant of Augustus done during his lifetime.
 The figure, which originally sat on the pedestal at the head of the hall, is graceful, as Suetoius, that gos- sipy historian from whom later scribes have learned nearly all they know about the Roman emperors. told us, saying:
 Graceful Person.
 He was a very graceful person through all the stages of life, though he was very careless in his dress and would set several barbers to work upon his hair together, and would sometimes clip and sometimes shave his beard, and at the same time would be reading or writing"
 Augustus, though emperor, called himself a democrat and, says Sce- toius, always abhorred the title lord as a scandaloVs affront." E> tells us, too, that the emperor caugh cold easily and wore wooden under wear in winter, with a thick woo toga."

RUBBING THE LAMP
By F. 4. WALKER

nF ALL the stories that out of a
 / far-distant past have come down to entertain and teach us none Is more compelling in it's interest than that of Aladdin and his wonderful lamp.
 There are several versions of the fact, but one feature remains the same in all the variations-in order to get the benefits which the lamp had pow CT to confer the possessor had to rub 1t
 get the desired results and to enjoy the benefits.
 The greatest disgrace In this life Is to be idle. To produce nothing, to feed upon the mental or physical labors of others, reduces man to a rank lower than the animals, for they strive at least for their food
 He is not only idle who does nothing" says Seneca, but he Is idle who might be better employed"
 The thing to do is to find that task for which you are best fitted which you can do with the greatest efficiency and the greatest pleasure, and do that task with all your might
 
 Count your efforts by results.
 The punch that does not land never oyercomes your opponent
 The bullet that spends it's energy in the air never helped to win battle.
 Production, RESULTS, is what truly measures endeavor and fixes its value.
 likeness Is emptiness. Emptiness as to the present, emptiness as to the future.
 One of the most indefatigable work CTS in America, man whose accom- plishments are known the world over and whose name is a synonym for ac complishment in his profession said in lecture to a group of young men recently: "The man who works only with the purpose of preservation whose only object in life is to satisfy his hunger, cover his nakedness and provide himself a shelter, may be good but he won't be good for much.'
 A man WITH A BRAIN ought to have something that the machine can not have. He ought to have aspiration and ambition and vision of better future.
 If he has not how is he better than the combination of belts and gears beside which he works?
 l could never quite see why Adam was very severely punished when as . result of his infraction of the rules of Eden he was told, 'In the sweat Of thy face shalt thou eat bread" cannot believe that the Creator looked upon work as a curse, punishment Work has brought more joy into the world, cured more sorrows. mended more broken hearts and built more happiness than any other function of mankind. Carlyle paid splendid tribute to work when he wrote, There is a noble ness and even sacredness in work. There is always hope in a man who actually and earnestly works. The latest gospel in the world is, know thy work and do it."
 Work will make us love life.
 It is the one means of satisfying ambition.
 It is the one way to turn dreams into realities.
 It is the ONLY way by which man can prove his right to existence and establish the wisdom of the Gre ator in having made him.
 The best part of the story of Alad- din and his lamp was that he had to rub the lamp to get results. He had to work to accomplish what he sought. And that was much more satisfying than ever marrying the Sultan's daugh- ter and living happily ever after.
