(Copyright, 1930.) OUR CHILDREN BY ANGELO PATRIL | | Robert had been named after his | fatner, Robert Henley Adams. When he was a little boy starting school he was called Bobbie and answered cheer- fully enough to that name. It seemed to suit him very well. He was full of life, teased the cat, got very dirty, for- got to say his prayers, did the least possible amount of extra work, played | hard and loudly all his spare time. With the oncoming of adolescence his mood changed, and to the amazement of his family he changed his name. His mother discovered this by the sig- nature on a school lesson, a very cred- | itable paper indeed. and could scarcely | believe her eves. In bold characters the | name stood, Robin Adams. “Yes, he often signs his papers that | way.” said the teacher, smiling a little. | “And I notice that when he does so | the paper is unusually vital. It has a punch ‘in it that is utterly lacking in | these he signs Rebert H. Adams.” | _“Isn't it queer; his changing his name that way? I don't like it. But maybe | T'd better not say anything about it.” The changes that Bobbie’s name un- derwent were highly interesting, not to say amusing, to those who watched. | When he wrote a joking note to_the | girl across the aisle he signed it Bob. Whan he wrote a tender one he signed it Bobbie. On all official papers of the !team of which he was captain he in- | scribed his name R. Henley Adams. Only when he was feeling very, very | ordinary did he sign himself by his | baptismal name, Robert H. Adams. | Shortly after graduation from high | school, in his preliminary college year, | he took another name, in sccret this | time. He would write it in his best | handwritiing at the end of a sheet of paper, presumably the last sheet of the compdsition. _Then he proceeded to do his work. When he handed in the paper it bore his own name. The name he worked under, the banner that in- "| spired him to do his best was that of a VeLy great man, a noble man who served his country well and passed on hon- ored, enshrined in the hearts of his countrymen. Not a bad idea at all, was it? That name called out the boy’s best effort. He did his best to reach the standard it symbolized. There was much in that name for this boy. This changing of names is not uncom- mon among adolescent children. It is an indication, and a strong one, of the influence some person, some quality of some person, exerts on the child, He will not select a name or a type of name that symbolizes what he dislikes You can be certain he likes the name he adopts and it has special meaning for him. ‘When a girl calls herself Birdie, well, she is Birdie. When a boy christened Patrick calls himself Montmorency, he is indulging in a sniff of high life. Never mind. All these moods are due the changing child. Do nothing to dis- | courage them unless you see them head- | ing the wrong way. And if you are naming a child, do | give it & name that he can live and work under. Not too great, but cer- tainly not too inane, Patrick is all | right. So are Robert and Mary. (Copyright, 1830.) Cucumber-Cherry Sailfl.

HE LEFT IN TEARS." When Bertrand Du Guesclin, “the “Eagle of Brittany" died of a malig- nant fever during the siege of Guyenne in 1380 the English, his enemies, mourned him almost as deeply as the French. A striking episode took place. Before Du Gueselin was stricken the English governor of the Castle of Chateau- neuf-Randon, the principal stronghold of the place. had agreed to surrender to him. When Bertrand died he insisted that he would give over his keys only to the man to whom he had promised them. Accordingly, he proceeded to the tent where Du Gueselin’s body lay. Beside the camp bed which formed his bler stood a table covered with blue velvet, marked with the lilies of France. Here rested Du Gueselin's sword of office as ‘constable of France. In the flickering light of tall candles the Englishman knelt in prayer. Then, rising, he said: “Not to the senseless body that I see lying there, but to yourself, Lord Con- stable, do I yield my fortress. Your immortal soul forced me to surrender to the French that which I had sworn to defend to the last drop of my blood.” ‘With these words he laid down the keys at the feet of the corpse. He left in_tears. Du Gueselin was one of the greatest of the romantic figures of the fourteenth century. As a child, however, he was an “ugly duckling,” from whom no one expected anything. His father was the Sieur Robert Du Gueselin of Brittany and his mother Jeanne de Malemains, a Norman beauty. She bore 10 children, of whom Ber- trand was the oldest. But_ whereas nine of her offspring were beautiful, Bertrand, the heir of e 2L R | his father, was ugly. His head was | round, his nose turned up, his eyes | green, his skin dark. His body . was | twisted, he was awkward, and he could learn neither letters nor manners. Nevertheless, he commanded a cer- tain respect. The chest and shoulders that topped his twisted body were enor- mously thick and wide, and he had | long, muscular arms. His strength was | well nigh supernatural. While still in his teens he could drag full-grown, ex- perienced jousting opponents from their | saddles with the twist of one hand. As a mere child he lorded it over a | band of barefoot peasant boys, fighting with fists and clubs. At 14 he could whip any lad in the village. At 15 he won a great wrestling tournament held by the peasants, throwing adult cham- plons who had more experience than he. At 18 he won a grand joust held at Ronnes. Until the latter event, however, his father knew nothing of his prowess. The Sleur Du Gueselin thought of his son only as a loutish person. Bertrand was disguised when he entered the joust. Having defeated several entries, he was challenged by his father. When the youth declined the challenge his identity was discovered. His father, overcome with joy, now provided his son with the means of seeking a noble career at arms. Ber- trand’s great strength soon made him a noted figure. Having brains, too, he became the chief military man, first of Brittany and then of France. His character turned out to be in keeping with his strength and his brains, (Copyright, 1930.)
