ve_.

Be careful not to capitalize such words when they are not an actual part
of the name. _French Republic_ is the name of the county, exactly
translating _Republique Francaise_, but _American republic_ is not such
a name. You would write _State of New York_ in a legal document in which
the state would be considered as a corporate person, but in ordinary
references it would be _state of New York_.

17. The days of the week and the months of the year, but not the seasons
unless personified.

_Monday the fifth of August._
_April is the first month of spring._
_Spring, beautiful Spring._

But write _ten o'clock_, _nine a.m._, _ten p.m._

18. Festivals and historic or famous days.

_Easter Day_
_Fast Day_
_Independence Day_
_Black Friday_.

19. Stars, planets, constellations, and the like, except _sun_, _moon_,
_stars_, _earth_.

_Mars_, _the Milky Way_, _the Pleiades_.

20. Ordinal numbers used to designate numbered political divisions,
sessions of Congress, names of regiments, Egyptian dynasties, and the
like.

_Second Congressional District_,
_First Ward_, _Ninth Precinct_, _Forty-third
Congress_, _Sixth Massachusetts Regiment_,
_Fifth Dynasty_.

21. Names of genera but not of species: except that in botanical and
zooelogical copy the species may be capitalized if derived from a proper
name.

_Agaricus campestris_
_Parkinsonia Torreyana_
_Pterygomatopus schmidti_, (Medical).

The English derivatives from these scientific words are not capitalized.
We write of the _agarics_, the _felids_, the _carnivores_, etc.

22. _Father_, _mother_, and other words denoting relationship when used
with a proper name or without a personal pronoun.

_I saw Aunt Lucy and Cousin Charles._
_I saw my aunt Lucy and my cousin Charles._
_I have received a letter from my mother._
_I have received a letter from Mother._

23. Names of political parties and of philosophical, literary, and
artistic schools, and their adherents.

_Republican_, _National Liberal_, _Social Democrats_, _Stoics_ (but
_neo-Platonism_, _pseudo-Christianity_, etc.) _the Lake school_,
_the Romantic movement_, _the Symbolic school of painters_.

24. Political and historical designations which have been much used and
have come to have special significances such as names of leagues,
parties, classes, movements, and the like.
