Saint Valentine Died A Martyr, Left Custom Of Choosing Lover
Centuries ago on Feb. 14, a bishop and martyr was put to death at Rome for his unyielding faith during the persecution instigated by Claudius II.
This man was known as Saint Valentine. His name has since been adopted by an age old custom of bearing on the eve of his execution, Feb. 14.
Young people of both sexes would gather together at a celebration and draw a name of the opposite sex from a common receptacle. By means of the slip-shod practice, each gentleman was granted a lady for his valentine and in turn became the valentine of a lady.
As the years have rolled by however, a few changes have been observed in the practice of celebrating St. Valentine's day. Gone are the carefree, uninhibited grammar school days when on Feb. 14, the morning was devoted to handling out gaudy little homespun valentines to classmates. These choice bits of sentiment were kept in a mammoth, motley-colored cardboard box which some well-meaning apple polisher spent three days in making.
And then there was always the big dispute as to who would be the mailman, and just about the time when the rulers began to fly and Rosie O'Grady was having her pig-tails tied to the radiator pipes, so they could avoid the camel and growing uneasiness by calling off names of the eager recipients.
Each little angelic darling would perch anxiously on the edge of his chair awaiting the teacher's nod. When all the elaborate little hearts and arrows were distributed there Jimmy begged Mary to join him Jimmy and Mary or envious looks because Harry received one more valentine than Tommy.
Although college students do not pursue the ancient customs of St. Valentine's day with the fervor of their youthful days, the custom of
sending cards or gifts to one's favorite girl still prevails.
College girls still get as big a thrill from receiving valentine remembrances as they did when in grade school; however the emphasis is no longer on quantity.
From all indications one may fairly well conclude that Saint Valentine has not been overtaken by lack of time and excessive work and is still high on the list of college girl's favorite heroes.
