TRIUMPH FOR AMERICAN GIRL
How MARGARET Robinson Secured Am
nesty for Bandit Band on Condi-
ton That it Joined Army.

Is there no Homer in modern Greece
to sing the exploit of the American
college girl who has freed Crete of Its
bandits? asks the New York World.
When Miss Margaret Robinson of
Grand Rapids arrived in {. etc as the
representative Of Near East relief her
efforts to aid the refugees encountered
the predatory opposition of the Greek
outlaw Barbounis and his band, who
for fifteen years had terroriZed the is
land. Sending an envoy to h robber
chief, she began negotiations which re-
suited In the grant of amnesty to Bar
bounis and his followers by the gov
on condition Of their serving
in the Greek army on the Turkish
frontier, and the harassed population
has since had the satisfaction Of see
ing the bandits sail away to join the
Kings Own" regiment at Dedea-
Catch.
Has a more romantic story come out
of Crete since the time of the Mino-
taur? At least the feat of the Ameri-
can relief worker furnishes an inter
esting modern example of the kind of
achievement which provided themes
for the old Greek poets. Given, that it
had occurred in remote antiquity, 1t
might by this time have been embel-
lished and elaborated into a great pop
ular myth possessing enough historical
truth to give it substance and adding
a new female portrait to the familiar
gallery of Ariadnes, Antlgones and
ElectraS.

OLD MIR. IA MOVES

0NCE there lived under a barn an
~ old Mr.. Rat. He had gnawed SO
many hard things that his teeth were
quite worn and he was getting very
fussy about what he had to eat.
A brick wall now would keep him
out, and even the hard wood which
he used to snap his tail at was no
longer an easy thing for him to gnaw
his way through. Yes, he was grow
ing old-this he had to acknowledge.
Grandfather Rat did not like to be
chased as he once did, either. That
is, he did not feel like defying his
Ienemies. He did not stand much
chasing in his younger days. Grand
father Rat would face even a dog
when he was young, and many times
he made Mr.. Dog sorry he noticed
him when he was caught eating the
farmers corn.
He was a very wise old fellow, was
Grandfather Rat. Many a trap had

ROMANCE OF WORDS
y WELRY"

T IKE confectionery. pas
- try" and "crockery", the
word "jewelry" has come to
mean something quite different
than 1t originally did-to be I'M
derstood as the thing itself, the
jewels, rather than the place
where these are kept.
Properly speaking, jewels are
"jewelry" no more than beggars
are "beggary" or slaves are
slavery. But the word was
perverted by careless speakers
who were unmindful of the fact
, that jewels were kept in a "jew-
. elry", just as CONNECTIONS
|, kept in a confectionery, paste
in a pastry" and crooks, made
; by a CROKER, In a "crockery".
, The proper use Of the word
, apart from the license permitted
, by custom-is well illustrated
, by Howell, who tells US in one
of his letters that FELTON,, the
. murderer of the duke Of Buck
ingham, in his attempt to escape.
twas so amaz'd that he miss'd
his way and so struck into the
pastry where he was captured"
Reading this today one Is imme-
diately struck by a picture OF the
, assassin being caught in a huge
!, pie or possibly stopped by the
|. impact Of one of those eustards
to which a certain movie"
comedian is SO partial. But
pastry, SO used originally,
meant the place where the paste
or desserts were made-not the
pies and cakes themselves.
The change in meaning is
doubtless due to the fact that
merchants placed signs yer
their stores announcing that
theirs was a "~jewelry", and the
public gradually commenced to
apply the term to the jewels
themselves.

CLEMENTINA

CLEMENTINA had its origin in an
cient Rome. Clemens was a cog
nomen and was borne by Vespasian's
nephew, Titus Flavius Clemens, who
was put to death by Domitian on q
charge Of atheism, like others who
went over to Christianity. A very
early church at Rome is dedicated to
him and he Is thought by some to be
the same Clemens which st. Paul men,
tions.
Clemens, taken as a Latin adjective,
signifies "merciful"; from it the sub
stantive elemental came to be formed.
The Romans worshiped elemental, the
personif1ed virtue, as a goddess, bear
ing a cup in one hand and a lance in
the other. and the title your Clemen-
cy" became the mode Of addressing EN-
perOrs.
In England and France, Ciementina
is probably the direct outgrowth Of
the legend of st. Clements, who wal
martyred by being beheaded and
thrown into the sea, where a shrine Of
coral was formed around his head. He
Is the patron saint of sailors. Italy
modernized the early Roman goddess
by calling her Clemenza and Germany
is responsible for Clementine. The
charming Clementina is the English
version. 1t gained great vogue and
achieved widespread usage in honor
of the italian lady in "Slr C. Grandi-
son."
The turquoise is Clementina's tails
manic stone. 1t will protect her from
all dangers, particularly from acci,
dents while riding and walking, accord
ing to an old legend. If she sees the
new moon reflected In its surface, she
will have extreme good luck. Monday
Is her lucky day and 8 her lucky mum.

The nations lumber shipment in
1920 was about 2,07O,0O0 carloads, and
the average haul for each carload 485
miles. According to the best estimate
Of the forest service, United States
Department of Agriculture, the freight
bill on lumber for that year was $685.

the forest service, wisely invested each
year in forest protection and rehabili-

NEW YORK, Dec 12.-Battling Slh is running wild somewhere around Freddy Welsh's Summit, New Jersey, health farm, the elusive quarry of searching party formed by his mana ger, Robert Moe Levy. The battier escaped Sunday night with thousand in cash in his pocket
 Sucker that I am,' Levy exclaimed. '"I give him whole thousand dollars when he ask for spending money and I tell him to be careful. Oi! Oi! by the bear of the prophets, what do l find him doing in Harlem an hour later? Making colored Coal Oil Johnny, giving away his money just like that.
 T try to make him quit and what do I get? I get chased, but I get away and later we capture the battler In a taxicab he goes and we drive to Fred Welsh's out at Summit a whole $27.00 worth, which I pay. Then I open the door and the battler leaps out like a panther swings off the limb of tree, and is gone, just like that.
 Tt is the first time l tried to keep a Senegalese. First I am afraid won't find him and then I am afraid him I hope they send him home"

And when he gets here he will have to go through a second wedding ceremony because the minister who married him to Laura Marie Peterson in Lindolin, Denmark was not bona fide clergy man.
 Mrs. Larsen, who arrived on the liner Hellig Olav with the children, told immigrations officials that when she learned of the marriage fraud, she notified her husband, who sent her money and told her he would re marry her when she came to this country.
 She had nothing 10 prove her story but an affidavit from Larsen stating he would remarry her, consequently the authorities are holding her at FL lis Island until her husbands arrival.

SkAGvVhI iLASkAT
 OUTS PUL]LICATI0'I
 AFTER 2G YEARS

Skagway is now without newspa- per, the tri-weekly Alaskan having appeared for the last time this week lack of sufficient support to justify it's continuation being given as the cause of it's suspension
 The Skagway Daily Alaskan was started by George W. DeSucca in Jan- uary, 1898. It containued to appear as daily until few years ago, when it's owner, the late Dr. Keller, chang ed it to a tri-weekly which it con- tinued to be until it suspended.
 The first paper published Tn Skag- way was the News, which was found ed by the late M. L. Sherpy, in Oct ober of 1897, and which continued un- til sometime in 1902, when it was sold and the plant taken away from Skag- way, but not before it's founder had the same time the Daily Alaskan started the late Oscar w. Dunbar be- gan the publication of the Daily Budget, which ran for three or four years, and was succeeded by the Daily Guide, which was owned and edited by o. M. Kinney. The Guide retired from business in 1904 or 1905 and about 1908 another paper was launch ed Tn Skagway under the name of the lnterloper. It had. as might be ex- pected from it's name, a brief but me- teorIc career and after a few months 1t passed away-from Skagway, the plant being moved to Juneau by A. R. O'Brien, lately of Marshield, Oregon, but now of Ukiah, California.
 For the past dozen years of more the Alaskan has had the Skagwav field to itself and Dr. Keller showed commendable enterprise in keeping it going as daily for many years after 1 SkagWay ceased to be a daily paper town, from standpoint of support
 Mrs. Keller has managed the busi. ness since the death of her husband year ago but it is understood she desires to dispose of her holdings, in 1 o,uling the newspaper plant, in order 1 that she may locate somewhere out side The Alaskan plant is a good one 1 for small town and if operated as a weekly in connection with job print cry could doubtless be made to pay in the very town in which it was for many years recognized as a promi- nent factor and prominent industry Strollers Weekly.
