Poem Had Origin In Actual Life

Poem Had Origin In Actual Life.
The famous poem about the boy who
stood on the burning deck had its
origin In an actual happening which
constitutes a page in history.
1t was during Napoleon's expedition
to Egypt that England sent Lord Mel
son to capture him and annlhilate his
fleet. AT the battle Of Abukir the
French navy was crushed and Ma
poleon was forced to flee, all but four
of his ships being sunk, burned or cap-
tured.
The French admiral had been killed
And on the deck of the flagship stood
her captain. Louis Casabianca, who
then had command Of the fleet. He
was wounded and the ship was burn
ing, but he refused to leave his post.
And in spite of commands and en-
treaties, his son, boy Of ten, STAYED
with him and died with him when the
ship went down, supplying the theme
Tor that famous epic of child heroism.
The boy stood on the burning deck"

Or unusual interest is the derivation
OF the word Sterling" as applied TO
something that is genuine. pure, un-
adulterated, or of excellent quality"
The original form Of the word was
"easterling." The Easterlings were
the north Germans, or the merchants
OF she Hanseatic league, the original
"moneyers" of England. The name
OF these merchants came to be applied
TO coin or goods Of a fixed standard
value, answering all tests. In the
time of Edward l we find an English
coin issued of the designation of a
dinar or dlnarius, called Sterling"
Since that time the word "sterlIng"
has been applied to the English pound,
which before the war was regarded an
the best value in the world.

MEMS FOR THE MARRIED

An antipodean student of woman in
the marriage relation comes to some
entertaining though perhaps not en-
tlrely justified conclusions. Here are
q few Of them:
The wise woman knows how to be
foolish when her. husband wishes to be
clever.
Every woman longs for a romance.
but most have to be content with hus.
bands.
Selfishness rs quality in husbands
which prevents wives from getting all
they want.
The wise man doesn't attempt to un.
derstand women; he merely tries to
get along with them.
A woman Is only what men have
made her. This applies particularly to
selfish women.
The happiness Of a married couple
doesn't depend on their loving each
other, but on their not loving anyone

Listen to the TinkZe Of The SalUation Army Tan,bourine
Once More Its Happy Music Makes Merry the Heart and Asks Your Assistance in its Work
By DOLLY DALRYMPLE

Mark the tinkle of the little tam bourine!
 For many months now it has been silent, for the Salvation Army lassie has been withdrawn from the streets, and no longer is the little familiar blue bonnet and the tinkly little tam- bourine heard on the crowded corners of the downtown thoroughfares.
 But joy to the world, the little Sal vation Army lassie is back again on the street corners with her merry little smile and her tinkly little tam bourine, and her pretty little blue bonnet, and she asks your help with your spare nickles and dimes and quarters and dollars, for oh, there's such a lot of work to be done and so little, oh, ever so little, money to do 1t with!
 Brigadier Albright Speaks
 That's why we have again ssnt our Salvation Army lassie with her , tambourine back to the streets" said Brigadier Albright, tho splendid wonderful director of the Salvation Army work in Birmingham, yester- day. Our needs are so great and we have so little money and something has to be done"
 "It occurred to me that the street corners might be the best mode for securing contributions just at the present time. and so I asked Dr. Percy H. Woodall, who is the chair man of the advisory board, what he thought of 1t and In his fine, co- operative way, he said:
 Tn view of the fact that no pro- vision has been made by the public for the Salvation Army for 1922. can see nothing else to do but to put on the tambourine campaign again. sincerely hope that 1t will be a tenn porary expedient, to be be cared for permanently by the Community Chest fund"
 So Much Suffering
 'Tf the people of Birmingham knew the many demands that the Salvation Army has upon 1t, they would surely be sympathetic And generous about contributing to it. There is our spiritual work. our re- lief work and our Rescue Home to lt ok after-and we have had no cam paign or drive this year for funds and naturally we are very short of money to continue our work.
 "Commandant Walgren. over at the Rescue Home. can tell the public better than any one else just how much 1t Is needed there. Girls, ba- bies, suffering, neglect--all sur round Commandant Walgren In her work and she is so splendid and such saint-that she would give the last ounce of her strength to help some poor miserable grill
 Tt is our sincere hope that tho Community Chest will function in the near future so that our money fr01fhlaz will a nhufa fafad--h11f tuA have never needed money more than at the present time, and we would appreciate so much the public's gen. erosity to our little tambour:ne lassie.
