LULU

ID ECENT discussion of Loretta sng
IN gests Lulu as an interesting
parallel study. Lulu Is also the result
of modern spelling. Its correct form
is I.oulou, a version which originated.
and Is still fnvorlte in France.
Its popularity is attributed to the
provencal Lora de Sades, beloved of
Petrnrch whose story is considered
one of the worlds greatest romances.
She is the lady whose praises are sung
by the grent Italian poet in his "lslme'
or sannets. She Is identified with Lora
de Moves, an AVgnonesc lady who
died of the plague in l34S, and who
was already married TO Hughes de
Sades in 1927 when petrarch Is said
TO have first seen her.
The romantic nature of the Frenen
caused the name of the lovely heroine
TO find extraordinary vogue in that
country. However, Lorn or Laura Is
scarcely euphonius to French ears, and
she became Laura, and finally Loulou.
Jet Is Lulu's talismanie stone. 1T is

II did not take the prince long to

So they found Mia and showed her

Mia gave the prince for his work quite
won the hearts of the king and queen.
When they found that their son
was ready to give up the kingdom TO
marry Nlta, the king said that the
kingdom needed people with good
sense to rule 1t, and now that his son
had become such good and sensible
man, all that was needed was prln-

gave his consent to the marriage.
