GEORGIA..

- EORGIA has a deeply religious
" origin among the Marinite
Christians who have a tradition
that Georges was Christian sentinel
at Damascus who connived at the es-
cape of st. Paul when he was LET
down in the basket, and was therefore
put to death. The next Georges was a
CappadOcian saint and martyr in
whose honor Emperor Constantine
erected church at Byzantium.
Throughout all early church history
Georgius appears as saint, martyr or
hero until, finally, the famous st.
George of the Dragon legend became
renowned in England.
Curiously enough, though George
penetrated every country Of the west,
being adopted by England, France,
Hungary and Germany, the feminine is
quite modernism 1t was not until
comparatively recent years that Anne
Of Denmark was instrumental in hav-
