VICTORIA

THE regal name Victoria has fit
l. ting origin since 1t comes from the
Latin vince, meaning to conquer.
Vincentius was an early masculine
name borne by two characters of the
Tenth Persecution, and later by one
of the great ecclesiastical authors at
Lerius in Provence. Vincente de St.
Paul added honors to the name, but
it was victor, the past participle,
which gave rise TO Vittore in Italy.
The first Victoria was a Roman vir-
rim martyred in the Mexican persecu-
lion. from whose name came the Ital-
ian Vittorla, borne by the admirable
daughter of the colonne from whom
France and Germany seem TO have
learned it, since after her time, Vic
toire and Victorine became common
In France.
1t is fitting that the ruby, king OF
precious stones, should be the jew
ell assigned as Victorias own. Its in
extinguishable flame, as suggested by
its color. asserts that its inner fire

preserve the mental and bodily health
of its wearer, remove evil thoughts,
control high temper, reconcile disputes
and dispel pestilential infection. To
dream of rubies signifies unexpected
guests.
Friday is Victorias lucky day, and
three her lucky number.
Wordsworth translated from the
Italian of Michaelangelo a charming
poem to Vittoria:
Yes, hope may with my strong desire
keep pace,
And l be undecided, unbetrayed:
| For If of our affections none find grace
In sight of Heaven, then wherefoI
hath God made
The world which we inhabit? Better
plea
Love cannot have, than that in low
ing thee
Glory to that Eternal Peace is paid
Who such divinity to thee imparts
As hallows and makes pure all gentle
hearts.

LONDON, June 25.-A bad start in
the first period on the part of the
British army polo team really decided
the second match, which the Amer
leans won, 6 to 4.
While played through a continual
driZzle, the contest was most exciting
and the fortunes of the day swayed
from one side to the other. But the
British, while they came together. be-
ginning in the second period, never
could overcome the initial handicap
of poor play.
The Americans won because they
were consistently accurate not only in
meeting the ball, but in sending it
where they wished it to go. There
was no noticeable difference in the
ponies.
Not a few curious coincidents oc-
Cured in the game. One goal for
each side was scored by the opposing
back, the ball being DETECTED from
their sticks. And in the two collisions
that marked the game members of the
same team. not opponents, crashed
together.
The stick work of the Americans
was delightful to watch and the great
forte of the visitors was in speedily
changing defense into attack, thus

selves at unexpected moments. Maj
Wilson, the hero of the first game,
was not so effective in the second
contest and his opponent, Boles, held
the upper hand most of the time.
Unquestionably, the better team
won, but aside from the question of
victory, the result was small. COM

visit of the Americans engendered

ever they met.

There are, indeed, more reasons
than one why the wild ululat tions Of
the college pack are not to be con-
sfdered. The gallery, to present one
reason, Is not and may not be di
vided In accordance with collegiate
aff1liation. Golf galleries are too in
clined to wander 70 various points
and to decide which players they
shall follow.
Say an excellent Harvard player ~
up against a superfine Syracuse man
do you suppose the Princetonians
present are going TO watch the game
of their own representative? If you
do, think again.
Golf galleries are always made UP
of players and players are critics be-
fore they are anything else.
College Spirit Missing.
And at Montclair in Jersey you will
find no college spirit of recogniza Bile
brand. College spirit in truth is
totally eliminated in favor of golf
ing spirit. There is not the slightest
way by which the visitor TO these
Jersey hills could distinguish this
as an Intercollegiate contest which
means much 70 the players involved, "
not 10 the general mass of alumni and
undergrads.
The players purely and simply are
individuals and when they fail TO
sink a putt or when they fub a drive
II is a personal misfortune. not one
that may be shared by dear old alma
mater.
One thing about this game of in
tercollegiate golf which gives IL a sig
nifcance unshared by any other
sport on the collegiate calendar
however, is the fact that the under
graduates who perfect themselves in
the game are adding trumps and
aces to the kit of things, desira BILE
and undesirable, which they will
carry with them when they leave the
classic shades of their seats os
learning and go out into the wide
wide world.
A college alumnus of great golfng
enthusiasm, who, in the years he
has been out of college has made a
definite place for himself IN the
world. says he has never heard Of
young college grad whose golf game
was a bit better than passa BILE who
did not find his prowess at the game
as great an asset as anything he had
ever learned IN the classroom.
