Variety of Pony Emblems
Not all the countries of Europe poo
'seas a flower emblem. At least au-
thoritative mention of such a badge
is not made to the case of more than
a few countries, notes a writer in the
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The flower of England is the rose.
This choice dates back to the Wars
of the Roses, when that branch of
the royal family known as the House
of Lancaster chose a red rose for its
badge, and the rival branch, the House
of York, a white rose.
The flower of Scotland is the this
tie; the badge of Ireland, the sham-
rock ; that of Wales, the leek. The
golden lily, or Iris, has been the na-
tional flower of France ever since the
time of Clovis, king of the Franks in
the latter part of the Fifth century,
to whom an angel gave—so runs the
legend—a blue banner embroidered
with golden lilies.
The violet, which is the national
flower of Greece, as It was that of
ancient Athens, win also adopted as
the budge of Napoleon and the Im-
perial party that followed him. The
flower of Germany Is the Kaiserblume,
the favorite flower of former Emperor
Wihelm I. This is the blue tower
which grows wild in oorutlelds and is
called variously cornflower, bluebottle,
bluebonnet and hachelar's button in
this country. Canncha's flower is the
bloom of the sugar maple.

joyed by all. Dignity was thrown
to the wind as prim and proper per-
sonades slipped into school-day niek-
names of “Boob,” "Pete," 'Pug,”
“Btnmy," "Red," Tat," ‛Skinhy," and
others, who became just members
of the ball team.
The banquet at 6:30 p.m., attend-
ed by 125 local, out-of-town, and
out-of-state ex-students, was held in
the upstairs of the old building,
which had been beautifully deco-
rated. Both the Texas Centennial
and Louise School themes were used
in the table appointments. Miniature
stage coaches, Texas flags and blue-
bonnets were artistically combined,
while overhead gayly-colored pen.
nants waved in true carnival fash-
ion. The place cards carried a tiny
actual photograph of the present
building, in the background of which
can 'be seen the partly-completed
outlines of the new structure.
In addition to the numbers print-
ed, many messages of greeting and
regrets from absentees were an-
nounced by L. D. Hillyer who, as
toastmaster, presded in a most pol-
ished, gracious and charming man-
ner, being introduced with an orig-
nailty and cleverness that added
greatly to the various renditions.
