"Kronstadt'V
An Interesting legend Is told con
ftjruing the origin of the name of the
city of Kixustadt. The old town hall
is supposed to stand on the spot where
golden crown was found in the stump
,f a tree in 1204. The royal emblem
was believed to have remained hidden
here for .more than 100 years. It was
identified as having belonged to King
Solomon of Hungary, who concealed it
lest it fall Into the hands of the pursu
ing .Bulgarians. Hence the name, Kron
Stadt.
x' First Baptist Churches
The name Baptist was first given
certain congregations of English Sep
ajratists which had recently restored
^he ancient practice of immersion, lu
but the Congregations-werev&ev<

A HAPPY AND A PROSPEROUS ONE
A KNITTER'S ROSARY
The hour I spent in sweater art
Are as a string of purls: I sigh
To count them over every one apart,
My row's awry my row's awry.
Each hour I purl each purl take care,
To drop no stitch lest I be stung
I count yes count unto the end,
And there a sleeve is hung!
0, memories that bless and burn
Of raveling out and bitter loss:
I drop a ptirl, yet strive at last to
learn
To knit across, sweet are, to knit
across.
