WE-TY========-=--=:=:======:=;:===;==;;==== Eating Humble Pie" Is to Act
 in Apologetic Manner.

A humble person has but a poor opinion of himself. He is willing to take an inferior position and to allow others to regard him as beneath their rank.
 In the Migdle Ages, lords and ladies rode to the hunt with huntsmen and retainers as members of the party. However, the latter only had charge of the hounds and the horses and did not share in the noble part of the sport. that of killing the deer at the end of the chase.
 When the vcnisan pasty was served to the lord and his household, the nobeS sat upon dais or raised plat form at one end of the dining hall, As an indication of their high rank. At the other end of the room the hunts men and servants were fed upon q pie made from the heart, liver and en- trails of the deer. These parts of the deer were called tie "nmbles." So you see that eating the tumble pie" or humble pie" was all indication of low rank.
 AS we use the expression, "eating humble pie" means 10 act ill humbly apologetic manner.-Montrea Herald.

VJky Sailors Wear Blue

Thp blue color SC prominent in the uniforms of almost all marines is of ancient origin Vegetius, in his fifth book on the military affairs of the Ro- mans, traces the origin of this color to the Veneti, an ancient people dwell ing near the coast of Biscay, and we'll versed in seamanship. It was custom ary among them 10 paint their outgo- ing ships. as well as the masts and sails. with a blue color; also their sol diers and s,iilors wore blue uniforms. According to this author, the Latin word "Venuius." which was both the name of the color and that of the peo- pie points to it's origin. From the Veneti the custom was adopted by the Romans.
