n S NIGHT be deduced from the
\ fact that the word Livery" is of
French origin-derived from the verb
"Iivrer," ito deliver"-the custom of
clothing servants in a uniform started
in France where it was the habit of
the early French kings to give
clothes to their servants. Because
these outfits were given or delivered
free Of charge, the uniforms were
spoken of as ''liveres" and the GUS
tom gradually spread until all of
the nobility and even some of the
gentry were clothing their servants,
AS a means of differentiating between
the servants of various houses, the
uniforms were made of contrasting
colols and varying styles, and the
French verb, when translated into
English, became livery"
In England, however, the term has
had a number of meanings. During
the reign Of Edward ", for example,

CLARICE

ETTHILE Clarice has it's origin in
w the same root as Glare or Clara,
it's evolution progressed in far diff
ferent manner. The Latin adjective
clarus, meaning bright or famous, is
of course responsible for both names,
but where Clare followed the English
and French, Clarice is the product OF
Italy.
The old Latin feminine of words
ending in "or" to signify the doer,
was 'ix"; in modern Italian this be-
comes "ice." Clarice, therefore, was
the feminine name so evolved and
meant ito make famous" 1t proved
popular throughout Italy, its famous
bearer probably being the wife of
Lorenzo de Medici.
Though France already had Claire,
she adopted CIarice, giving a'soft "ss'
sound to TIE &C." This explains the
Clarissa which sprang up in England
and was given extraordinary vogue
by Richardson in his novel wherein he
made Clarissa his heroine. The popu-
larity Of this book in France brought
forth Clarisse. It is not the first in

THE TELEPHONE

. EIEMBER the telephone!
N For what is the use Of our Won
derful modern civilization if we don't
take advantage of all its convent
ences? And that is just what the
telephone is-a convenience.
Yet for the sake Of saving five or
ten or twenty cents, sometimes, some
of us ignore the existence of the tele-
phone, and cause thereby untold wor-
nv to our family and our friends.
For instance, you have told your
family that you will be home at four
O'Clock to take a little motor trip be-
fore dinner. You are delayed at the
office, and know you won't be able
to get home until seven. Telephone
them, and put their minds at rest
about the change of your plans Or
you are delayed by a block on the
subway or street car line on the way
to a friends house for a luncheon en-
gagement. Telephone her, instead of
arriving three-quarters of an hour
late, full of apologies. Or perhaps
you take taxi to the station to
catch a train to a friends house for
a weekend visit. The taxi is caught
in a traffic jam and you miss the
train. Telephone, so that the friend
who is expecting you won't wait
anxiously for your train to arrive.

THE RAIN CLOUDS

a LII the Rain Clouds, big and
h small, were hiding on top of
d mountain and in the big hollows
in its side.
Down on the ground every flower
and plant and growing thing was cry
ing for water, and old Mother Earth
was beside herself with grief over
the suffering of her children.
"They all will die" she moaned,
''snd I cannot do thing to help
them. Even the tall trees are heavy
with dust. Oh, where are the Rain
Clouds, and why do they not do their
work and save my children?"
The little brooks and streams had
done all they could to help, but even
they were almost dry, and in her de
srair Mother Earth caught a Warm
Breeze floating by and asked it if it
knew where the Rain Clouds were
and why they did not come where
they were so much needed.
Warm Breeze said he did not know,
but that he would ask Tree Top if
he could get high enough, but that he
had little strength left himself, the
earth was so warm.
Somehow Warm Breeze did manage
tic get a message to Tree Tops and
they sent back word that the Rain
Clouds were hiding on the mountain
and around it.
Then along came Brisk Breeze, who
was passing on his way home, and
Mother Earth begged him to tell the
Rain Clouds to hurry or her children
would perish.
But the bad Rain Clouds, when
Brisk Breeze gave them Mother
Earth's message, just ran off high up
in the sky saying they were not
going to work; they were going sail

Brisk Breeze was a friend to
Mother Earth, however, and he flew

'Then they all danced. The Dummies
danced with the fairies and the
brownies danced with the cupids and
now and again they changed partners.
How-nice it all was. The little fluffy
skirts of the children-fairies were so
dainty and pretty and many of them

have bunny ball."

"But, dear me, haven't finished
hearing your plans, Billie"
81 thought it would be fun to ask
every one to come in bunny costume.
Don't you think it would be funny to
see every one of our friends dressed
as a bunny? Old Mr. Giant and Witty
Witch and all?'
"A great idea, Billie, a great idea,"
said Bennie
"And we could dance and play
games and frolic and have gorgeous
supper afterward.
"But a bunny costume is so particu-
larly attractive that I thought it
would be nice to have an enormous
ball of this sort.
"And everyone likes Dummies and
would like to dress in such costume,
Pm sure. Well, let's call the Breeze
Brothers and ask them to help us
carry around the invitations"
SO they called the Breeze Brothers
and the invitations were sent out at
once. That very evening they had the
party. And every. creature came
dressed as a bunny. How gay and
merry and frolicsome was Brownie
land that night and everyone was so
pleased to have had wonderful party
arranged for so quickly and as such
surprise.
No one minded getting ready in a
hurry. In fact, that was part of the
fun. And as the bunny ball was going
on several little real Dummies peeped
at the Brownies and Fairies and Elves
and Oaf family and Bogey family and
old Mr.. Giant and Witty Witch as they
danced and said as they wiggled their
noses,
"Well, they do look like us. There's

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
HVILLAiNn


HISTORY, which has habit
= 4 of repeating itself, runs
true to form in a number of
words, as may be seen by the
comparison of the changes I'M
dergone by pagan" and Evil
lain." The former, as we have
seen, first meant a dweller in
a village (pagus), then a heather
villager and then a heather.
Similarly, william" was origi-
nally applied to the serf or peas
ant, known as "villanus" be-
cause he was attached to the
villa or farm. In this sense it
had no opprobrious meaning
whatever, being practically
synonym for our word country
man" or rustic" Then, because
it was taken for granted that the
peasant would be churlish, self
ish, dishonest, and generally of
evil moral conditions-referring,
of course, only to the peasants
Of other days-the word began
to take on these secondary char
acteristics, and, at the third
step, nothing of the meaning
which the etymology suggests
survives. The peasant is en-
tirely lost, and the evil moral
conditions Of him who is called
by this name alone remain, for,
in it's final stage, the epithet may
be as freely applied to. the peer
as to the pauper. In fact,
thanks to popular fiction and the
even more popular screen, the
current INSTALLATION of a vii
lain is that of a well-dressed,
black-mustached, cigarette-smok-
ing person, bred within the
morally cramped confines Of the
big city rather than raised in
the theoretically pure at
mosphere of the farm. Thus do
words swing around until their
meaning points in a direction
precisely opposite to that in
which they started.
