   Valentine’s Day is named for Saint Valentine, an early Christian churchman who reportedly helped young lovers. Valentine was killed for his Christian beliefs on February 14 more than 1,700 years ago, but the day that has his name is even earlier than that.

   More than 2,000 years ago, the ancient Romans celebrated a holiday for lovers. As part of the celebration, girls wrote their names on pieces of paper and put them in a large container. Boys reached into the container and pulled one out. The girl whose name was written on paper became his lover or sweetheart for years.

   Lovers still put their names on pieces of paper and they send each other Valentine’s Day cards that tell of their love. Sometimes they also send gifts, like flowers or chocolate candy. Americans usually send these gifts and cards through the mail system. But some use another way to send this message. They have it printed in a newspaper. The cost is usually a few dollars. Some of messages are simple and shot, “Jane, I love you very much.” Others say more. This one, for example, “Dan, roses are red. Violets are blue. I hope you love me as much as I love you forever, Mary.”

   Most of the newspapers that print such messages are local, but USA Today is sold throughout the United States and 90 other countries as well. This means someone can send a Valentine message to a lover in a faraway city or town almost anywhere in the word. These messages cost 80 dollars and more. An employee of USA Today says readers can have a small heart or rose printed along with their messages this year. Will this kind of Valentine’s Day message reach the one you love? Well, just make sure he or she reads the newspaper.

                       Life behind the bar

Wu Junqi has long been linked to alcohol (酒). Of course he is not a drunkard (醉鬼). He really rarely has a drink. The 33-year-old man is a bartender (调酒师) in a pub named “Shock” in Beijing.

Wu’s “morning” starts at seven pm and his day usually finishes at two in the morning. Standing in front of a shelf full of bottles of alcohol, he makes one cocktail (鸡尾酒) after another for his customers.

“I make a cocktail to match the customer’s age, mood and even the clothes he wears,” said Wu. He started his fob eight years ago after he ended his career as a jockey (马术师) due to injury.

While more and more young people are becoming interested in this cool job, Wu said several months of training and a certificate (证书) are not enough to be a good bartender. According to him, rich life experiences and knowledge are also important, like a painter or an architect, he believes a good bartender is an artist. “Our work is not as simple as just shaking the bottle to mix a drink. Inspiration and creativity are very important to form your own style.”

Working in a pub also requires you to be a good listener, according to Wu. While some bar-goers enjoy themselves, other can have problems and worries. “You have to listen and try to persuade them to think more positively. If a customer wants to escape his problems of getting drunk, you have to stop him at the right time”.

Wu got his senior bartender certificate in 2001. He says English is important in his work and is part of the exam because most alcoholic drinks come from abroad. “You have to know the brand of drink and different types of cocktails. If the customers are foreigners, it is good to be able to chat with them.”

Although Wu refused to say how much he earns, he said his income is in two parts: 2000yuan salary plus a commission (提成). “It is nonsense to say that a bartender earns 10,000 yuan a month,” he said.
