At that time they are discarded, and iiis clothes are ' ound around his waist with a girdle. The girdle ceremonies are public and are accompanied by very elaborate religious rites. On that occasion he receives a new name. Ills education begins at this period and is considered finished at fifteen, at which time he attains his majority. He assumes the responsibilities of a man and takes his place in society with a new name. Entering upon the duties of a public function, he takes another name, which is changed upon every advancement in rank or dignity in his official position. His name is changcd upon the slightest pretext. If his superior officer happens to have the same name, the subaltern's must be changcd, for It detracts from the dignity'of a chief for a subaltern to possess the same name. He receives a new name upon his marriage. His last and only permanent name is the one given after his death, which is inscribed upon his tomb. —Ijedger Monthly. .
