By Miss Btliol Jones
THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER
Twenty-five centuries ago a
young Greek gingerly picked up a
shield and Joined his fellow towns
men to stand against the invading
armies of Gyrus, the great. The
young Greek was no hero—when
the fighting became too hot he
threw down his shield and staged
and orderly one-man retreat out of
the anger zone.
Thus, strange as it seems, the
national anthem of the United
States, “The Star Spangled Ban
ner” had its beginning in history.
The young Greek was Anacreon.
He lived, by reason of his discre
tion, and became a famous poet, i
He sang the praise of wine and
love much to the liking of old King
Polycrates of Samos, who invited
the happy young bard to join his
court.
Most of Anacreon’s poems were
lost; but the spirit of his works
lived on and about two thousand
years later a group of his devotees
in Ijondon organizd the Anacreon
Club, to perpetuate his memory.
Somebody wrote a drinking** song
for the club and called it ‘Anacreon I
In Heaven.’ The tune is believed to j
have been borrowd from a peasant
folk song from Brittany and ware
it heard, you would probably stand
up and take off your hat. You
would swear it to be ‘The Star
Spangled Banner.’ In a way you
I would be right for the words that !
'Francis Scott Key was inspired to
, write while. on board a British
battleship, on the night of Septern- ;
jber 14, 1814, during the bombard- I
rhent of Fort McHenry, w-ere s"t 1
to this tune of ‘Anacreon In II a
ven.’ So it comes about that appar
ently the national anthem of the !
United States is sung to a Fr.nch i
tune which was popularized as an
j '’’-■glish drinking song honoring a
vieek poet.

YOUTH MARCHES FORTH
Already the vanguard is moving
through graduation exercises, and
during the coming few weeks the
high schools and colleges will send
great legions of youth marching
out into the battle of life.
They go with high hopteg and
high courage, these young men and
women who are bidding a final fare
well to the sequestered peace and
carefree Joyousness of school days.
Naturally some disilluaionments
awaits them, come disciplining in
the school of hard knocks. That
merely tempers the steel. Now par
ent you must not stop at graduat
ing your dear ones but instead put
on the girdle of cooperation and
help prepare a place of livelihood
