VALENTINE’S DAY Despite popular conceptions in various sections of the country, there is no general agree origin of St. Valentine’s Day as we obs::e it today.| Perhaps the most logical explanation of how the name| Valentine came to be connected with a day on which) lovers send tokens to one another lies in its confection with a prevalent belief in Europe in the Middle Ages. . Literature of this period, beginning about Chaucer's time, shows that the popular conception was that the birds began to mate on February 14th. Thereafter, Eng- lish literature frequently mentions the day as a sacred one for lovers. This was how the day was connected with lovers. The name itself could have come from either of three great Valentines. One was a priest in Rome, another a bishop in Terni, and a third of which very little is known. Perhaps vari- | ous people connected various saints with the day, but} the day was always February 14th, and the connection with the lovers probably began during the Middle Ages, | when the popular belief about birds was connected with human lovers. From this beginning, the custom of observing St. Valentine’s Day has grown into one of the most beautiful customs, especially for younger people, in the United States and elsewhere. In this country, young lovers ex- change Valentines, greetings and presents; and there is an air of romance about the day which does the hearts of young and old much good. Probably the largest valentine ever known was pre-| sented to the United States, February 14, 1912. It had an area of 113,596 miles and it-became the forty-eighth state in the Union. It was the former Territory of Ari- zona, now known as the Grand Canyon State. It could) well be called the “Valentine State.” What the nation needs is more “lemme” and less “gimme.” Key West can accomplish much for the common} good if its people will get together and work together. The human race, in the struggle for improtement, is handicapped by two classes of citizens: those who take everything lightly and those who take everything too seriously, Crossword Puzzle ACROSS 39.
