The four most popular names for boys in 1955, according to. Mr. J. W. Leaver, who keeps watch on such things here, are John, David, James, and. Charles. That's the same order (using only The Times announcements as a standard, of course) as, in 1954. There were 159 Johns, 92 Davids, 91 Jameses, and 82 Charleses. Next in order came Richard, Michael, 'Christopher, Peter, Andrew, and Anthony. The latter six showed vari- ations from the 1954 pattern. Andrew and Anthony, Mr. Leaver pointed out in The Times letter column, crowded out Nicholas, Robert, and Will- iam. On the upgrade in popular- ity, although not yet among the. Big Ten, are Simon, Mark, and Jeremy. Coasting downhill in 1955 were Nicholas, Paul, and Edward. NOW for the girls. Ann (or Anne) crowded out Mary for the No, 1 spot this year, 153 to 128, although Mary won, in 1954. Then came Jane with 124, and Elizabeth with 91. After that: Caroline, Sarah, Susan, Mar- garet, Frances, and Clare. Mr. Leaver, who for some 'years past has kept account of children's names in this fash- ion, informs us Alison and Nic- ola are on the increase as girls' names, while Amanda, Helen, Louise, and Patricia appear to be in a slump, writes Henry S. Hayward in The Christian Science Monitor. Mr. Leaver presumably re- ceives no recompense for his annual chore-and the itatistics- keeping involved throughout the year-other than the pleasure of keeping track of something most of the rest of us can't be AGENTS WANTED blathered about. Yet i have heard numerous people here remark with interest on these particular name-statistics, Nonie and Bernard Burrep, two other English shatistics- keepers from Maidenhead,SPe- cialize in reports on Christmas cards received. They also pro- vide an annual list for The Times, a newspaper whose letter column likewise manages to keep score on such improb- able items as the number of double over-bumps scored in Thames boat racing throughout the years. (No don't tell me you don't know what a double over- bump is; there's no time to go into that here! The Hurrens analyzed 235 cards received from all over the world in 1955. They tell es a holly or snow motif led the field 'easily with 94-a big jump from 1954 when winter decora- tions rated only 34." Crests and badges accounted for 24, and nativity scenes 22. Buildings (whatever that Means) also numbered 22, Other topics mentioned by the Hurrens included dogs, air- planes, ships, and colored pic- tures. They also classified four as just "plain greetings," More- over they were pleased to report hidden advertisements, of which they received 13 in 1954, ,dropped • to zero this past Christmas. On the other hand, they got no "dogs" last year, and 10 this year. "The Christmas idea behind dogs, buildings, birds, ships, and especially colored pictures (many of costly production) defeats our understanding," the Hurrens confess. They feel that the big increase in nativity scenes (from 2 to 22) may show a swing to religioin. But keep coming back to Mr. Leaver. Where on his list, I wonder, do the Hurrens' names, Nonie and Bernard, rate? They weren't in his Big Ten, that 'I know. And while Mr. Leaver may keep track ,of Christian names, what doeS he do with his Christmas cardsy Just " ignore them? Tpss them on the hall table for the wife to sort" out? And, for that matter,I,„,.know it's prying, but I'm interested in Mr. Leaver's own name. What do the "J" and the "W" stand for? „ John (No. -11 in 1954 and ,1955) and William (declining)? Or James (No. 3 in 1954 and 1955) and-what other "W" is there, anyhow? Walter, Wilfred, Walsingham (all unlisted)? SWING AND.SWIG ---,You don't haveld bedrUnk to swaY at this bar in Munich, Germany.

Rembrandt period. -A •little Devonshire port has an integrity that 10,000 summer tourists •could not spoil, even if they were all there at once. It is Brixham. It is not really a tourist town. In a small way it is a shipping ,port. And in a small: way it is a shipbuilding, •port. This %sernmer the: early attrac- tion here will be the new May exact copy of the 1620 Mayflower now nearing -coMpletion in the yard of Stuart TJpham on the road to Berry Head. Thii • is the •ship they said could not be built. For the whole idea was to' build a vessel- of the same kind as the original in the ' same way as• the original was built. And where was'''-one= going ;to find shipwrighta with similar skills 335, years later? The ,answer was , Brixham. They ' have b e en building wooden 'Ships' down here in Devon ever since history can remember. They still do it in much the same way, with many of the sane' 'tools; as the first Elizabethafis:'did. • " That is what I mean when I say ,Brixham has integrity. It • also.has seagulls. And rolly men in ,,blue jergeyg and, sea- boots' going about 'their everyday business in their everyday way. It has fishing boats, And it has yachts. It has a place of narrow, twist- ing streets, and sudden shad- owed alleys. The streets dodge here and there, up the' steep hills, but they are overtaken every now and again by surpris- ing, narrow flights "Of worn stone steps that lead more quickly from height to height. The stout round forts on the hills were built as part of the preparatioria to repel a tyrant from overseas, Napoleon,' who had also promised to land here , for a somewhat different pur- pose. But Brixham has' another claim to fame and probably a deeper one. It was here that the Rev. Henry Francis Lyte, vicar of All Saints' Church, wrote the great hyinn "Abide With Me." The house that was his stands in a magnificent position .on the very, edge of alt almost Cali- fornian seascape Wand the tides flow over and around the rocks just outside the eastern windows. This is an 18th-century man- sion of much charm. It. is now Berry Head House, a quiet hotel with a pleasant old fashioned integrity of its own.

These sketches will be so ar- ranged as not only to .give an insight into the care taken by the master in preparing his ma- jor works but also to show how his style matured and mellowed during the years. It was ,not to be expected that Rembrandt's own house in Am sterdam, which is already a delightfully contemporaneous storehouse ,of - memories of the master, would be forgotten for this birthday celebration. Situ- ated in the heart of 'the capital, it will display from May 17 to Oct. 20 original drawings, re productions and engravings- of the city in Which, Rembrandt ' lived and worked ,for so'' king. To' give reality to the' display, there will also be phetographs. ,showing that those' places Much• frequented by Rembrandt leek like' today. ' Fortunately fOr the organizers of :this - Rembrandt Year, the Dutch artist was'` a prblific work- er. As one Dutch „beSitte,ssman has put it: 'Rembrandt Purely , was,the pioneer of today's Dutch campaign of productivity in r crease." So in addition to • the large number of the artist's works being displayed in the three ex- hibitions, already mentioned, One of the outstanding at- tractions in Holland in 1956 will be the tribute the Dutch people will pay to one of their greatest sons, Rembrandt. Born in Leyden 350 years ago, Rembrandt has always been the most pOpular and romantic of the great. Dutch masters; but never before have such careful plans been made to ensure full honor. There were at first proposals to have a Rembrandt Pageant, a Rembrandt Opera and a Rem- brandt play. But the logical Dutch finally decided that the greatest honor they could pay to their illustrious son would be to give as many people as possible the opportunity of see- ing as' many of Rembrandt's works as could possibly be col- lected and made available. So Rembrandt Year in the Netherlands is being celebrated CURL CAP -- You're w rong if you thing Earl Carroll is greas- ing his car.
