It ie also said that only fools make the same mistake twice. Yet there are millions of people who go through life con- stantly making the same old mistakes. That's why so many of us fail in our ambitions. We don't profit byour mis- takes and learn to avoid the pitfalls to which they ,lead.. We don't think enough; we don't learn to compare and measure, and weigh things, to learn- their true values; we don't gain any wisdom from our experiences, and so when an old proposition comes to us in a• new: guise we fall.

Racial Origin—Dutch, also. English.

To begin with. Van. Dyke is a name that comes from Holland. The prefix "van," similar to the German "von," the French "de la/' the Anglo-Saxon "atte' and the modern English "of" or "of the," betrays its origin indis- putably. The dyke, with an original meaning of "a digging," long centuries ago, even before the period of family. name formation in Europe, came to signify to the dwellers in Holland a digging specially designed t0 keep the water. out; in short, a dam or seawall. The original Van Dykes, of course,, were simply dwellers on or near the, sea- wall, and in its first use the name was merely locally descriptive. On the other hand, a "dyker" or "dykman" meant in. the speech of the medieval Anglo-Saxons a "digger" or "dig -man," one who digs. More spe- cificaliy the word was applied to farm workers, to men who dug the soil, in many ,instances > performing service for which the plow was more common- ly used later, though the plow 'was 'a quite well-known instrument even 1 those days and long before then.
