SOWARDS COAL CO. Fim 5 Phone' 811. S stories I have been telling 'about Odysseus are taken from a great poem of the ancient Greeks called The Oryssey. You and I know that many of the things in the stories could never have really happened; but I am putting them in this history because most of the Greeks believed they were true. The touching tale in the Odyssey @ about Penelope. She was the granddaughter of a king of Sparta. Her fame for virtue and wisdom «caused many young men to ask her to marry them. v 3 She chose Odysseus, the king of the island Ithaca. Odysseus took his bride to Ithaca and for a year they lived in peace and happibess. Then came the Tro- jan war. When her husband sailed to Troy, Penelope was left alone--- oxcept for their infant son.' Years dragged by, and still the husband did not return. After the burning of Troy, Greck ships sailed back to their native land; but none of them bore Odys- seus. The nobles of Ithaca came to the queen and said: "Your busband must be dead. Choose one of us to be your mate and rule over the kingdom." "No," replied Fenelope. "We must wait longer, Soon I shall bo- gin work on the funeral robe for my busband's father. If Odysseus does not return. before I get it done, 1 shall marry one of you." True to her word, she started to make the robe, but each night she undid the work she had done during the daytime. The nobles saw somc- thing was wrong. Ome night they waited and surprised her in the act of unraveling what she had woven. Their mood became ugly. They sald she must marry one of them at once. the funeral robe. WINDSOR ALDERMAN LOSES HIS SEAT Because of Non-Attendance Through lliness--Position Filled by City Clerk.
