RHODA

a MONG the flower names which
have been under discussion ap.
pears one name which is not generally
recognized as belonging TO the list.
It is Rhoda, the graceful Greek name.
which has completely lost its identity
under Importation and is now regard
ed as purely English and American.
The name signifies Rose" 1t is taken
from the Greek word for the flower.
1t was apparently transplanted in
tact TO English shores, as there is no
record of its evolution from a Greek
root. The Rohais which appeared in
France and named the wife of Gilbert
de Gaunt is thought by etymologists
TO have arisen from the Latin ''hros,''
meaning fame, rather than TO have
been taken from the flower. Indeed,
most of the derivatives of the femi-
nine name, Rose, are believed to have
come from this source
Thus Rhoda is almost unique in her
place and significance; likewise it has
never suffered contraction.
The ruby is Rhoda's talismanic gem.
1t possesses the deep red color which
is likewise her talisman, and prom
ises her the fulfillment of her ambi-
tions, bodily and mental health, and
poise Of bearing. Tuesday is her
lucky day and her lucky number.

INITIATING is poor policy. Yet on
every hand we find people living,
dressing and amusing themselves the
way others do for no particular reason
other than, perhaps, to satisfy their
desire not to permit anyone 10 get
ahead of them.
Probably nothing proves a greater
obstruction TO the progress of the
world than the folly of initiating. Ger
tainly the desire so TO do results in
q great amount of unhappiness to men
and women everywhere.
The only real advancement in any
community or for the public at large
must come through people doing new
things or old things in different ways.
Every important advance. with prob
ably a few exceptions, has come TO in
dividuals and nations as a result of
men or women taking new paths in
order to accomplish something worth
while for themselves and their fellows.

as fine as others, cannot wear as fine
