: NAMES FOR GIRLS
And What They Mean

TLSE. Elsie and Alice are three Of the
i prettiest names for girls. They
are generally considered as separate
names, yet they all have the same or
igin. a corruption of the name Ade-
laide, which passed through the
stages Of Adeline. Adeliza, Aliza and
then'Alice. The Latin version Of the
name. which Is still popular In the
British Isles, is Alicia. The modern
Italian name is Alisa. Just how the
name Elsie was first used Is not gen
orally known, but it's relation to
Alice Is definitely conceded. Ilse Is
an unusually attractive form of the
name and Is distinctly German in it's
origin. 1t is the. German form of Ell
sic. In Teutonic FOLKLORE Ilse was a
princess who was changed into a
river to save her from evil powers.
France has some pretty variations
Alfx and Aline. The modern Ameri-
can girl has adopted some unique
methods of spelling Alice, especially
Alys and Allyce.
The name is said to mean "nobil-
ity." and the red lily is conceded to be
the emblem of Alice. Elsie and Ilse.
There have been many heroines of
plays and books of one of these three
names. Few English or American
children grow up without having en-
joyed Lewis Carroll's whimsical Alice
in Wonderland" and Through the
Looking glass" in which the heroine
is very polite little girl named
Alice. An Alice was also heroine of
Arden Of Feversham" and of Alice.
OF the Mysteries" by Bulwer. The
heroine OF one Of Chaucer's stories was
an Alice.
oliver Wendell Holmes wrote a
novel in which Elsie Venner was the
heroine. There is also a series Of
nearly thirty books which were read
by the schoolgirls of the last couple
or generations that told of the trials
and tribulations of a meek young girl
named Elsie Dinsmore.
There have been several royal AL
ices. Principal among them were
princess Alice, second daughter of
Queen Victoria, who changed her
name when made Grand Duchess of
Hesse to Alix. so that the Teutonic
subjects could better pronounce il.
Queen Alice. consort of William Nv,
was sister of the King of France
The Queen of Henry / of England
was French princess Alice. who
chose to spell her name Adeliza, one
OF the oldest variations of the nama.

Girls and Their Affairs.
Conducted BY Helen H. Fetter:

n r OW that ST. Valentines DAY
mi is past, all the fappers In
town are contemplating get
ting new spring hats. Inc
first signs of spring are not buduihs
twigs and bluebirds-at least not III
the city. They are, instead. clusters
of dainty hats in wide glass sho"
windows. Usually. in marked con
trast to the darker or more VIVA
tones of winter hats. they are OF the
pastel shades and tints-jade green
delft and baby blue, old rose salmon
mink and orchid. The trimmings are
likewise dainty. with loop OF SILVER
ribbon here and tiny bouquet OF
French rosebuds there TO emphasize
the expected passing of bleak winter.
At times the effect OF these mats
worn with heavy fur coats or rough
snort coats, Is incongruous, to say
the, least. but in their very. incon-
gruity they fairly shout, Spring Is
coming
The shops, however. are not the
only places where spring hats are
Sprout:ng. The millinery classes at
both Technical High School and Gem
tral High School are hummtng with
the delightful task of girls who are
busily making their own spring head
gear. Old party frocks furnish ma
terial for making dainty spring poke
bonnets. and II is wonderful what
charming ornaments can be made or
few odd beads and some embroid-
cry silk.
Few people who are grown up and
preoccupied with their own business
worries realize the practical value Of
these classes in teaching the girls
economical ideas 1t is particularly
Interesting to one who visits the
classes to discover how cleverly the
girls themselves can take old orna-
nents. analyZe how they We're made
and then work out original ideas and
color combinat 'ons, based on these
principles. that are more attractive
than the original articles.
The modern girls .s Wide awake
young person and has proved herself
lncreasingiy q person of initiative
and resourcefulness. From time i'm
memorial the spring hat has been
symbol of tho delight in eXtravagant
f"ills OF womankind, but it can no
longer be employed with justice to
serve in this capacity. Even in the
shops the Easter bonnet is not the
expensive luxur| it used to be, and
the old custom of saving ones pre-
cious new hat for the first appear
vince on Easter day has long since
disappeared.
Probably the fact that so many
girls are now making their own
hats has something to do with this.
for who could make a good looking
hat AMI then keen it even until the
new lining was firmly sewed in
without wearing it so that every
body could see and admire it?> 1t
fust isn't human nature. Where
Iore. all the girls are now wearing
dainty hats. on which the sunny skies
OF late winter in Washington smile
heniSnly. even while the streets are
still streaked with darkened slush
eft from the brief SHOWS of our
ksho-t winter.
