HAMMOND

VARIATIONS - Hammonds, FitzHa-
mond, Hampson, Amundsen.
RACIAL oRIGiN-Norman French, also
Scandinavian,
SouRcE-A given name.
Here is another group of family
names which traces back to the anci-
ent Teutonic given name Of ANAL"
or "Amala," though it should be re-
memoered that the groupings in this
article are more or less arbitrary. and
for convenience Of discussion. rather
than as evidence of rigid courses of
development.
The Normans brought the name into
England as "Hamo" and "Mamon." 1t
was not long. however before the
given name began to develop new
mond." the latter quickly becoming
more widespread. In many cases the
patronymic or family name, was
formed by the prenxing Of the Nor
man "Fitz,' meaning "son Of" In
others. the surname was formed by
the addition of the ending son" But
"Hammondson" was a little too clumsy
for the average British tongue. and SO
did not endure long being shortened
variously to Hammond and Ham,
monds. In more modern times there
ldS Decu u very SSHoEdl lSHucHCy 70
add q nnal "s" to such names. SO THAI
the name Of Hammonds is sometimes
still another lensthening from the
form Of Hammond.
But the givein name often developed
the diminutive forms, in Norman
fashion. Of "Hamonet' and Hamolet"
or "Hamelot." "Hamonet" quickly be-
came ''Hamnet." producing the sur
name "Hamnetson" or "Hamneson," ;"
which has finally been twisted into
the modern Hampson. "Hamnet" has
also given US Hammet. "Hamelot"
seems to have stopped at giving US
Shakespeare's Hamlet"
Hhe family name Of Amundsen, or,
as we sometimes see it Amondson and
Amondsen, Is nearly always traceable
to q development OF the Scandinavian
form of this ancient given name.

Queen Alexandra Of England.

Most dowager queens are nuisances.
A nation becomes more or less mar
ried to its queen, and when it has to
marry another it is very awkward
indeed to have the old one about. In
Holland, for instance. where they
have two great holidays. the queens
birthday and the queen mothers
birthday, there isssharp rivalry as to
which shall be the bigger event and
the louder. I was there on Queen
WiIhelminas birthday this year, and
IL the Dutch make more noise for
Queen Emma / shall never go to
Holland in April! But Alexandra Of
England. after her long career az
Princess of wales and her short
reign as King Edwards queen. has
settled back into a technical second
place, without losing one bit of her
hold on the British public.
Alexandrias contemporaries have
disappeared from public life. Queen
vfotorias daughters. Alexandra's
the public prints as PRINCE Edward
and Princess Mary are today. Now
no one hears Of them. AS queens
daughters. they lived in palaceS rode
in royal eQuipages and sported red

and their equipages. As kings aunts,
they haven't even a sentry! But
none begrudges Alexandra the con.

stout and middle-aged, who Is florid
and thick-set, feels that she is pushed

If a historian of future centuries
looks back upon the clothes pageant
of this year he may insist We were q

mature. they threaten to oust other
forms Of neck drapery. >
This handkerchief and the CASH
mere shawl gave the impetus to
printed fabrics. "Jonah's Gourd" Is
the name of the popular pattern that
riots over our figures from shoulder
to ankle. and surely no one in the
land of bandannas need ask what a
gourd is. 1t hangs by the water
bucket or on the pump handle.

at one side that looks somewhat like
an umbrella and a handkerchief Of
the material is draped over one
shoulder and tied on one arm with
bright red ribbon. The separate
handkerchief is not so often attached to
the frock today. The fabricmaker and
the dresmaker do the trick for us.
There are some who prophesy that
this handkerchief drapery is assum-
ing the precision of small Victorian
shawl. There is every reason to be-
lieve that this is true and that the
fashion may come into full swing along
with the spring. There is no more
reason against shoulder shawls than

FOREIGN BONDS
EARLY FIRMNESS IN BOND PRICES REACTS TO SLUMP

NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-After an early firmness, accompanied by un- usual activity in the railroad divi- sion, bond prices slumped in the late trading today and closing prices gen. erally shaded those of yesterday New lows for the year again were touched by the taX-eXempt 31as of the United States government and the Youngstown Sheet and Tube Gs, recently freed from the protection of the offering syndicate.
 Bond traders declared the move ments indicate a condition of indi- gestion and that buyers are inclined to sell quickly for a small profit, thus returning the bonds to the mar ket. Uncertain stock prices has in- fluenced some selling of bonds on the downward turn for fear the holders would sustain further losses.
 Instances of quick profit taking on fractional gains were evidenced into days movement of sugar, oil and steel company liens, all of which advanced in the forenoon and sold off later. The same situation pre- vailed in the railroad group.
 Bankers continue to hold in abey- ance several large bond issues which are reported to have been ready for some time
