LIBRARIAN JOBS.
Books Offer Many Excellent

The profession of librarian Is one
which appeals to many girls who are
real book lovers. In itself it is q
very interesting vocation and it Is
also an excellent traiping and back
ground for many other professions to
which it may prove a stepping stone.
1t offers invaluable training IN re-

these private libraries contain price,

NAMES FOR GIRLS
And What They Mean

Isn't 1t funny how few. Of US are
really satisfied with our names2 And
when 1t comes to nicknames-it's just
terrible! Yet, surely, If some of US
realized what nice meanings rather
unattractfve names had and what
horrid meanings some of our most
notwithstanding names had, we
would be reconciled to our own. pro-
vided we were among the fortunate.
Who wouldn't?
For instance, take the name Abigail.
We have snickered at it in derision,
more or less. for the last few CEN
turies, because we felt that this name
typified the angular New England
type of old maid. In reality. this
name Is one of the most interesting
a girl can have. 1t is of Arabic origin
and was used extensively by the He
brews.
Any girl might be glad to claim it.
as it means fathers JOY" And, what
girl doesn't always like to be in good
standing with her father? The Abb
gail of the Bible was the wife Of
King David and the name was a
favorite with early English writer's.
Marlow's famous tragedy, THE Jew
of Malta" had an Abigail for a
heroine. and the star part of one of
Beaumont and Fletcher's charming
comedies was that of an Abigail.
Then. too. Abby makes a rather cute
nickname, doesn't 1t?

She does both at furious rate Of
speed, yet never seems to drop either
a glance or a stitch.
We admit that there are many
things which the f1apper knows that
her grandmother didn't, and doesn't
know. We doubt, however, If the
Aapper does know that there is an
added significance to the use of the
tion and bootleggers. The amethyst
is supposed to have a great power as
an antidote to drunkenness. The
theme is treated prettily in an early
French legendary verse. The tale re-
lates how Bacchus, whose peculiari-
ties and gifts have become especially
well known to all of US since prohi-
bition descended upon our country,
was feeling rather offended and gen.
orally neglected one morning after
a gala night. He pettishly announced
to all who were unfortunate enough
to be in his employ that he should
have the first person whom he met
when taking his morning constitu-
tional devoured by his choice collec-
ton Of wild tigers.
Fate willed 1t that this person
should be young and beautiful
Greek happer named Amethyst. She
was on her way to worship at Diana's
shrine. As she had never studied
rhythmic dancing. she was no match
for Bacchus' tigers, SO she fed to
Diana's temple In trembling haste.
The goddess pitied her and turned
her into stone. Bacchus was sorry
when he saw the pure white stone
maiden, and in the depth of his re-
pentance he poured a liberal supply
of fermentedl grape juice over the
statue, thus giving the stone the
heautiful violet hue that Is the chief
charm Of the amethyst.

GOLD RUSH DAYS LIVED OVER
In NEW MOVING PICTURE

A famous author and a noted pro-
Queer combined to produce 'The Gray
Dawn" coming tomorrow to the Lib
erty theater, namely, Stewart Edward
White and Benjamin B. Hampton.
"The Gray Dawn" equals "The West
erners" in it's rich western setting and
surpasses 1.-THE Killer" in its virle
drama and stirring action. Both of
these successes represented the COM
bined genius of author and producer.
The story, which bears the strong
dramatic imprint of it's authors wide
ly recognized ability as narrator,
depicts San Francisco's picturesque
period of 1856, directly after the gold
rush-a period in which the city was
in the grip of a lawless element.
So strong was the political faction
in control Of the city that murder and
robbery were of daily occurrence and
