Fabulous prices are paid for fur niture, china, clocks and other which once graced the homes of bygone days. Henry Ford is said to have expended a fortune establish. and main- taining a museum in which many articles of historic value are preserved. Is this enthusiasm for antiques a mere novelty? Is it an expression of real appreciation for old things; is it a sincere effort to recapture something of the lost spirit of our fathers? -- iYiih en- - abring patience alia asm tnev wrought by hand that which in a wholesale fashion is made today by machinery. The writer has in his garden a trough hewn out of sand stone by hand. In the early day, it was used for cooling milk. It would be impossible to find today a person who would do that same 'work. No, such work and workmen belong to the days of old. When we evaluate the spirit which dominated our forefathers, we find patience and perseverance in the ascendency. How much of this fine spirit have we lost in this day of speed? How much have we sacrificed to the mechanistic spirit of our day? Would we not know more . of happiness and contentment, if we preserved along with the antiques, something of the spirit that created them and laid the foundation of our social and spiritual life? We do not want to return to a primitive style of living, but we do need to remember that life does not consist in the abundance of possessions aimlessly obtained. We do need to remember that life has qualities that permanently stamp things both old and new.

In such cases, fair play is gone. If a third of the Senate plus one member is obdurante with respect to a treaty then a small majority la running the government, and democracy has become the victim of a special group. 'And if the courts take unto themselves the power of using judicial review to such an extent that the court become a legislative body, to the contrary constitution, and strikes down laws so commonly aa it has been done in the last few months, then the will of the people of the country is overcome by a smaller group still, and we have a oligarchy. 'None of these things are going to happen. Fair play is sought and will be forthcoming." The Senator criticized tho court for tendancy to review cases in the light of decisions of previous cases rather than going back to the original constitution primarily, and declaring that as a result "the difference between the interpretation today and the original words is apparent to all laymen, and a demand for reform must conic.

Corneluls The Near East's newest trouble spot, up in the malarial northwest comer ol Syria, where both France and Turkey are claiming permanent title to the district of Alexandretta, is the subject of a bulletin from the National Geographic society. "The sanjak, or district, of Alexandretta. though lost in the entity of the French mandate of Syria until recent plans for Syrian independence came to the fore, is one of the bits of the puzzle carved from' the Turkish Levant following the World war," says the bulletin. "While it is a part of the new republic of Syria, under French protection, it is at the same time a province under direct French administration. Turkey, however, points out that the majority of its inhabitants are Turkish, and also that the area was only conditionally surrendered by Turkey at the Paris Peace Conference. Two Important Cities "The district has two important cities. One is, Antioch, scene of the exploits of Ben Hur, and the other is ine seaport and rail terminus of Alexandretta, named for Alexander the Great. Antioch, little changed since the days when Paul and Barnabas preached nearby, is a flourishing trade center in the midst of a rich farming region, much of its fertile sou pierced with licorice roots. Modern highways now link this former capital of the Roman empire in the Orient with Aleppo and other parts of Syria. "Alexandretta dates from the Fourth century A. D. Its Turkish name, Iskanderun, recalls the victory of Alexander the Great over the Persians at Issue (333 B. C). Before the construction of the Suez canal it was one of the chief outlets for caravan trade from India and Persia. Until a modern motor road from Antioch was run north across the Amanus range, Alexan-dretta- 's trade was largely with Anatolia, via a narrow-gaug- e railroad connecting it with the Baghdad railroad at Topra-Kalin Turkey. Near Famons Peak. "Because it is a drab, y city of some 12,000 population, with almost no tourist attractions, Alexandretta does not often come into the news. Built on a marshy plain, backed by the Amanus range, the city is notoriously unhealthy, although its splendid harbor has the best anchorage north of Beirut (Beyrouth). "Not far from either Alexandretta or Antioch rises the famous mountain Musa Dagh, scene of the dramatic World war siege cVscribed in. the recent best seller "The Forty Days of Musa Dagh." In nearby Anatolia is the city of Tarsus, birthplace of Paul the Apostle, to whom the pleasures and wickedness of Antioch were anathema. "The Alexandretta region possesses several well watered valleys which normally produce abundant crops, including cotton, tobacco, licorice, and citrus fruits. Live stock, silk cocoons, and textiles arc also exported. Oil has been discovered in tho region', as well oj deposits of chrome and antimony ores. "Sheltered from storms of weather, Alexandretta, which formerly had a huge colony of Armenian refugees from Cilicia, has had its e share of strife and promises to have more." w e, work-a-da- man-mad- Marine Engineer Travels Around Earth 60 Times New York Imagine traveling the equivalent of sixty times around the earth 1,500,000 miles!

Illness Outside Service Account fcr Most Cases. Since the demoWashington. bilization of our World war army, nearly 1,600,000 veterans have been admitted to Federal hospitals, the veterans bureau recently disclosed. Admissions during 1938 totaled as compared with a peak of 120,-36- 5, 148,662 in 1932. Since June 7, 1924, when congress authorized hospitalization without regard to the origin of illness, disabilities not connected with service have accounted for 68 per cent of all admissions. During 1936, nine out of ten veterans admitted to hospitals were treated for disabilities sustained outside the army. Neuropsychiatry patients continue to show a sharp increase, accounting for well over half of the patients. Tuberculosis and general medical and surgical cases are declining. At the close of the last fiscal year, June 30, there were patients in veterans bureau hospitals. In addition to 36,824 veterans of the World war, the roster included 2,356 from the war, 103 from the Civil war and sundry others. There are veterans hospitals now at eighty different places. Nearly 46,000 beds are available in these institutions, an increase of more than 1,000 over 1935. Including beds in other government hospitals and in places under its supervision, the veterans administration has under its care 65,000 beds. New hospitals will add 12,000. Since March 3, 1919, congress has appropriated nearly $150,000,000 for hospital facilities for veterans. The opening of a new cancer center at Atlanta last year added a sixth hospital to the facilities for the treatment of cancer victims. There are also special centers for the care of pulmonary tuberculosis and mental diseases. 41,-8- Spanish-Americ- 75 an On the Rebound: In some manner, it became known to editorial staff members of the Wall Street Journal that one of their number would have a birthday on a recent date. So they got together and forgetting stocks, bonds, the finances of the world and the Treasury deficit, took counsel among themselves and decided on gifts. When the young man arrived, he found his desk piled high with packages. With snicker-conceali- ng associates gathered around him, he removed various wrappings and thus exposed drums, dolls, tin automobiles and other articles common to the play of extreme childhood. In other words, they had arranged a fine ribbing. But instead of explosions or even embarrassment, there were expressions of complete satisfaction and in fact gratitude.

The Meter Goes 'Round and Around: Though the disc actually cost only 5 cents, the record of "These Foolish Things", now owned by Henry King, is the most expensive in his collection. Heading home in a taxi the other day, the bandmaster suddenly decided that he needed the song for some purpose or other and instructed the driver to stop outside a music store and wait until he made the purchase. Once inside, he and the proprietor got to talking about music and the conversation lasted for hours. When King went outside, the cab was waiting for him with $8.20 duly charged. There was nothing to do but pay. So King has decided that in the future he'll buy his records from a music salesman and not a music student. well-equipp- ed Government Takes Action to Stop Dope Smuggling Marshfield, Ore. A move to throt- tle dope smuggling activities along the rugged coast of southern Oregon will be initiated by the United States Treasury department by an increase in patrol boats, cutters and narcotic agents. e Two narcotics men are stationed here now. Six more are expected to take up their duties under, the new plan. A squadron of five coast guard cutters and a number of tew patrol boats already in use on the eastern coast are to be transferred to Pacific waters to battle the drug trade and participate in other coast guard work. The government recognized the seriousness of the dope smuggling trade along this coast last summer when six agents were assigned to various southern Oregon points. With the of the Cutter Pulaski, the agents have discovered and broken up several contact points. The drugs were being run by fast motor car to Portland, Seattle and San Francisco after being taken from Oriental ships and smuggled into isolated coves. Treaties now permit Uncle Sam's coast guards to board foreign vessels 100 miles off shore to search for contraband. full-tim- 80-fo- ot Life's Like That: The other day, was hurrying along a gentleman when Broadway bumped into him with great force and violence.

"I can't keep my chin up," was the mournful reply. "Why not?" inquired Allen. "Because I'm a violin player," was the rejoinder. Fred Allen Hudson River Scene: Blunt-en-d ferries passing in , .
