The classic example of wifely fidel ity Is Penelope, beautiful Greek wife of Ulysses, conqueror of Troy. For ^0 years, while her husband was away at the Trojan war, Penelope remained faithful to him, tn spite of frequent reports of his death and the importuni ties of her many suitors. The story of how Penelope outwitted these scheming lovers has been handed down to us by no less a chronicler than the great Homer, who Immortalized her deeds In “The Odyssey." Penelope, who was the daughter of Icarlus, also a famous Greek, was sought In marriage by scores of the eligible youths of her day. Unable to choose among them herself, she asked her father to decide upon a son-in law. Icarlus determined that the fleetest of foot among the suitors should win his daughter’s hand, and Instituted a foot race In which Ulysses, the Ithacan, was vlctorloua. When Ulysses was called to the siege of Troy, It was 20 years befor* he returned. Before he settled down to enjoy his long-deferred domestic happiness, however, Homer tells us, he killed all the men who had basely taken advantage of his absence. WITHOUT STREET ADDRESS YOUR MAIL IS DELAYED AT OFFICE OF DELIVERY __ The Dead Letter Office haa been In existence ever '■•in Ren Franklin started our postal service. Even then people addressed mail to Mr. Ezekiel Smithers, “Atlantb- ' oust,” and ex pected Ben to know Just where Zeke lived. Perhaps they hed Zeke’s address In letters up In the garret, maybe a chest full of ’em, buf then it was easier to let Ben hunt Zeke. Today people are addressing letters b> John Smith, New York, N Y., or Ohlougo, 111., thinking Uncle Sam can locate him. which Is Just as Incomplete os was Zekes ad dress of yore.
