Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Acadiensis, 1901, Vol. 1: A Quarterly Devoted to the Interests of the Maritime Provinces of Canada
Probably one of the most difficult problems which con fronts the promoters of any periodical is the selection of a suitable name, by which their publication shall be known to the world. Many a carefully launched and creditable undertaking has been hopelessly shipwrecked through the want of a suitable name; many a deserving individual, who might have achieved a fair amount Of prominence in the literary world, has lived and died unknown, his lack of fortune due, perhaps, to the fact that his parents, upon his being brought into the world, failed to provide him with a name which was not commonplace. With individuals this difficulty has sometimes been ameliorated, by hyphenating some imposing name to the more ordinary; the hybrid result being, to the mind of the person by whom the Operation was performed, a decided improvement upon the original product.
