From Dandelions to Orchids Flowers Carry Own Meaning Since the days when the caveman brought his fair beauty a big bouquet of dandelions, most flowers have been a symbol of love. Many people fail to realize, however, that every flower has a mean ing of its own. Woe to the Casanova who wishes to prove hjs love by sending a girl carnations, for he is really showing his disdain for her. If a boy send his girl a cor sage of white rosebuds, he is say ing, in effect, “You have a heart that knows not love.” But the girl who wears camellias knows she holds his destiny in her hands. Bashful Boy A bashful lad should send his lady-love violets; while the call ing card of a wolf is the yellow rose. The especially pure and inno cent girl is symbolized by daisies; the chaste, by orange blossoms; and the passionate beauty, by red roses. Lilacs are a sign of the first emotion of love, but for a recon ciled couple the lily-of-the-valley means a return of happiness. The meanings of several other common flowers are: iris, a mes sage; wild rose, simplicity; tulip, May Queen, Court Highlight Ball In White Hall Names of the two junior at tendants to the May Queen at tomorow’s pageant will be dis closed at the Coronation Ball to night. These two girls with the May Queen, Lillian Skraban, the Maid of Honor, Jane Sutherland, and two representatives from the other classes will be presented at intermission. The Coronation Ball, sponsored by WSGA under the co-chair menship of Madelyn Bush and Ann Fickenscher, will be held in White Hall from 9 to 12 p.m. The girl-ask-boy affair is held annually in honor of the May Queen and her attendants. Pat Patterson’s orchestra will provide music for the semi formal Ball. Tickets, $1.50 per couple, may be purchased at the Student Un ion Desk in Old Main or at the door. Chi Omega Sponsors Novel Street Dance A street dance will be held in the parking lot behind the Sigma Chi house from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. Wednesday. Jack Huber’s Combo will play for the affair. Chi Omega is sponsoring the dance for the benefit of the Fos ter Parent’s Plan, an internationr al welfare organization. If it rains Wednesday the dance will be held Thursday. Tickets, which can be purchased from sorority members, are 25c per person. By Helene Krebs a declaration of love; and daf fodil, chivalry. Glamorous Queen The glamorous queen of cor sage flowers, the orchid, means its wearer is a charming, grace ful belle. If the .53 of each Penn State coed’s quota of men wishes to know his chances for a happy marriage, he will find his answei in a flower. Early in the morning he must pick a blue cornflower and put it in his pocket. If it i dewey fresh and “true blue” 24 hours later, he will marry suc cessfully. No doubt the super stitious man will remain a bache lor as did his predecessors, whe named the flower the “bachelor’s button.” “Say it with flowers” is a mean ingful phrase, but how does one translate a spring bouquet of oachelor’s buttons, carnations, tu lips, yellow roses and violets?
