HOW 1T STARTED
"God Save the King"
By JEAN NEWTON.

IN this song, the national anthem of
Great Britain, we find written a page
In the history Of England. There has
Keen contention as to the origin of
God Save the King" one version
being that it was written In the early
seventeenth century, by Ben Jenson,
poet laureate. However, the theory
generally accepted by authorities
today is that the words were written
by Henry Carey for James II. the
exiled king, and that the song was re-
vived and sung during the rebellions
of 1715 and 1745. and then silenced by
the failure of the Jacobites. until it re-
appeared with the reading, God Save
Great George. Our King" substituted
for the origin, Great James,"
Although Carey himself was not
known to have laid claim to the au.
thorship of the song, his son, born in
the year of his death, took up his
cause, and SO brought fame to his
name. In fact, on the strength of
this contribution by his father he
asked a pension of the government,
which however, he did not obtain
Henry Carey IS known to have sung
the song on public ccasions, specially
in 1714, by which time it had acquired
the change to Great George, Our
King
1t is interesting to note that the
phrase God Save the King" has re-
corded usage in a patriotic sense 200
years earlier than the song whose title
it is. 1t appears in State Papers"
Vol. l., p. 1s4, and under the head
"E'lete taken by the Lord Admiral,
the 10th day of August, 1545," we find
the following:
THE watchword in the night shall
be thus: God save King Henrye'; other
shall answer: And long to reign over
u.s."
The music of God Save the King"
has been generally conceded to be that
of DR.. Bull, a famous composer of the
reign of James.

and these ready-mades can usually be

Now interestingly enough the side
saddle has been revived in England
and as EnglishwOmen are notable

fts effect in this country and in

about riding say that when a grow

II she rides astride she is apt to make
her hips large, and, of course, there
is nothing that d young girl of today

cannot induce her to take the side

you can use this little argument about

SHELDON FRENCH
LEAVING c. & A.
AFTER II YEARS

| Sheldon F. French, 1916 Tenth St.,
mechanical engineer at the Calumet
and Arizona smelter here for nearly
IA years, has resigned his position
with the mining company effective
March 1, and will leave some time
next month for Los Angeles, Calf,
it is announced:
Just what field of endeavor French
I will enter has not been decided but
he has several propositions under
consideration and stated Friday that
he will take part in some big project
when he has his affairs definitely ar
ranged.
Coming here from Butte, Montana,
IA years ago, French was first em-
ployed as a craftsman by c. H. Re-
path and designed the plans for the
new Calumet and Arizona smelter on
the. outskirts of this city. While
working on the plans for the new
structure, the firm became Repath
and McGregor and French completed
his work for the concern of that
name.
He also designed plans for the
Arizona Copper company smelter at
company smeIter at ClarKsdale. After
performing this work French re-
turned to his home at Plymouth,
Pennsylvania, but after spending a
short time there was called back to
this section to become a craftsman
at the c. and A. smelter here. Not
long after. he accepted that position,
French was made mechanical engi-
neer and has held that position for
nearly ii years
His resignation at this time is due
to the hope that he will. be able to
obtain better position, George
GAVE, smelter superintendent for, the
C. and A. stated yesterday. French
has always done excellent work here
he added, and is we'll liked by his
fellow employees. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
French have made many friends in
Douglas during the past dozen years
who regret that business calls him to
another section of the country. Los
Angeles is to be his present destina-
tion although it is possible that he
will locate at some other coast city
in the near future. Mrs. French and
their two sons will probably remain
in Douglas, until this coming May.
French is a graduate of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania and went to
Butte after completing his engineer
ing course there to obtain some gen
eral mining experience.
