Hard times, hard times" said Peter
Rabbit as he poked his head out of

usually is green was no longer green.
You see, everything was glistening
white. There had been snow and
sleet, and then Jack Frost had frozen
everything hard.
Peter knew just what this meant.
1t meant hard times for everybody.
1t meant that food would be hard to
find. Just snow alone wouldn't have
mattered so much. But with every
thing coated with ice, even the buds
on the trees, 1t was going to be the
hardest kind of hard work for any
one to find necessary food.
But Peter had seen just such times
before and he felt sure that some
how, somewhere. he would find enough

others. Suddenly he remembered

he remembered how, after just such
storm the winter before, Farmer
Browns Boy had gone all about scat

ROSE

RACIAL OHIGiN--En9HSns
SoURcE--A flower or color.
The family name of Rose, simple as II
seems, is one that is full Of complex
ties. While there Is one source from
which it appears reasonably certain
that a very large proportion OF the
families which bear 1t can trace It,
there are many other possibilities pre-
sented upon which little light can be
thrown. In the case where the word
is combined with another In the for
nation Of a family name the tracing
of the source Is simpler, though the
trail leads in an opposite direction
SO often as to make 1t doubtful how
often the name Of Rose itself Is really
related to these compounds.
The one certain source Of the name
lies in the custom Of tradesmen OF
the middle ages. erecting signs In
front of their places of business,
bearing pictures rather than words.
since the bulk OF the population could
not read. The rose was in quite COM
mon use for this purpose, and In the
natural course of events such trades
men as used II often adopted Rose
as a surname, or had IL thrust upon
them in the speech of their neighbors
and customers.
In some instances. no doubt (but
how often is a question for specula-
tion) the name is a changed spelling
of the old word for "red" which has
given us such names as Russell
Rousell and Ross. and the word rus
set. or a changed spelling of the
name Ross-which, in its turn. how
