sible source of the name is the New
Testament story of the tragic Inquire,
Mary Magdalen. Magdalen, 1T seems,
is not a surname, but merely trans
lates into "of Magdala," the village of
the scarlet woman's birth, and is re-
garded as an adjective Of place.
So the soft harmony of "Magdalen"
was not employed as proper name at
that time, but history records that
various institutions, or rescue homes
for unfortunate girls. sprang up under
the Name, until it began to be used as
synonymous for fallen women. Writers,
artists, and poets, who find fascination
in portraying the type Of Mary Mag
dalen, with her luxury, her embroid-
cred robes and flowing hair, and her
inevitable tears as a repentant sinner,
kept the two names In vogue. But
finally the Mary was dropped COM
pletely and only Magdalen persisted
and waxed popular.
Each nation has taken the name
Magdalen and placed upon it the
stamp of individual spelling. England
