A clock like, that doesn't mean much one way or the other , . . certainly it doesn't look like much and I've yet to see one that kept very good time.

I've been digging around trying to find out just what types of good looking look-ing clocks there are available-clocks available-clocks worthy of being a decorative focal point in a room. Because I'm for utility with decoration wherever wher-ever possible so why isn't a handsome hand-some clock a better idea than a candlestick can-dlestick for a mantelpiece or chest . . . certainly it serves a more useful use-ful purpose. The most interesting modern clocks I've found are the grandfather clocks for halls copies of fine old ones. An imposing clock like that would practically furnish the average aver-age hall. There are reproductions of old banjo clocks too that would do exciting things to most any wall. They are as authentic in design as they are accurate in time keeping. The smaller clocks that I've seen and liked included one in an antique silver finish and in oblong shape. The clock is at one end, while a hand chased design of deer and trees at the other end has a certain austere formality about it it suggests sug-gests itself for use on a mantel or some other important place.

He hadn't been the least bit afraid when he met the fat, important im-portant looking stranger in front of the house of little Miss Nanny Meadow Mead-ow Mouse. No, indeed, he hadn't known what fear was. He had fought the stranger until the latter had cried for mercy and at last had run away. Danny had chased him, nipping at his heels and tail, until he was sure that the stranger never, nev-er, never would dare come back. PS1 it X n f 1 Danny had chased him until he was sure that the stranger never, never would come back. Then Danny had brushed the dirt from his coat, washed his face and hands, and had started back for the house of little Miss Nanny to make the call he had intended to make before he met the stranger. He felt very good, very good indeed, in-deed, did Danny. He had won a great fight, and he felt sure that little Miss Nanny had seen him win it. He was glad of it. She would think him a real hero. At least he hoped she would. He felt as if he could fight anyone in all the Great World just to win a smile from little Miss Nanny. He even strutted as he started back up the private little path to Miss Nanny's house. But as he came in sight of her house a funny fun-ny thing happened. Yes, sir, a funny thing happened. He stopped strutting. Quite suddenly all feeling of boldness and bravery left him. He couldn't be sure, but he had had a feeling that two soft little eyes were watching him from behind the long grass that hung over Miss Nanny's Nan-ny's doorway, and the very thought gave him a funny, all-gone feeling inside. He stopped and pretended to be looking for something. Then he went on a few steps, only to stop again and pretend to be very busy brushing his coat. The fact is Danny Meadow Mouse wanted to go on more than he ever had wanted anything in all his life before, and at the same time he wanted to run away. Supposing, just supposing, little Miss Nanny should refuse to see him! The very thought quite upset him. . Or supposing she should be angry because he had chased away that fat, important looking stranger! What should he do then? When he had started out that mornirg Dartny had been the happiest Meadow Mouse in the world, because why, because he was in love, you know. He was just as much in love now.

Art Treasures Revealed By Spanish Civil War VITORIA. SPAIN.-One of the strangest results of the Spanish civil war is that many rare art treas ures are being brought to light whose worth is being appreciated for the first time. Often working under fire, members mem-bers of the insurgent "Service for Recovering Artistic Treasures" are unearthing remarkable finds among the war-shattered villages and towns of Huesca and Lerkia. At Roda, a little town in the foot' lulls of the Pyrenees, a royal throne was recently discovered. It is said to date from the Elev enth century, when the kings Of Ara-gon Ara-gon were striving to drive out the Moorish invaders. Known as the "Throne of San Ramon," Ra-mon," it is believed to be the only piece of Spanish furniture in existence exist-ence dating from that period of savage sav-age warfare. A gilded mitre which was once worn by St Valero a Thirteenth century saint was also recovered at Roda. It is decorated with exquisite ex-quisite Moorish designs. Nearby were found two episcopal crooks, one adorned in enamel. A famous picture the "Immaculate "Immacu-late Conception" by Murillo which has been shown at several international interna-tional exhibitions was also found at Roda, together with a remarkable collection of ecclesiastical relics. perhaps a little more so, but he wasn't happy, all because he had suddenly grown so bashful. He had thought himself very handsome, but now quite unexpectedly, he found himself thinking that he wasn't handsome at all. His coat had been torn in the great fight and he stopped to try to cover up the rents. So little by little he drew near to the house of Miss Nanny Meadow Mouse. All the time little Miss Nanny had been watching him. Danny would have felt a lot better if he could have known just what she was thinking. think-ing. "How splendid and brave he is, and how handsome!" thought Miss Nanny. "He must be the hero I have always known would come for me some time. Oh, dear, I wonder if I look all right? Why doesn't he hurry? I-I-Isn't he a dear?" By this time Danny had almost reached her doorstep. Quite suddenly sud-denly little Miss Nanny became very shy, quite as shy and bashful as Danny. What do you think she did? Why, she slipped out the back door and ran away and hid. Yes, sir, this is just what she did. Was there ever anything so funny? There was Danny, brave of heart and bold in a fight, so timid at the thought of her soft eyes that he was afraid to knock at her door, and there was little Miss Nanny, sure that he was the hero she had waited for, yet running away and hiding.

The 13.500-mile England-Australia England-Australia route, longest single airline air-line in the world, will be extended to Aukland, N. Z., before the summer sum-mer of 1939.

Three youthful collegians colle-gians have turned back the "reces sion" this year and have gone down to the sea in a ship. Actually the trio were aided by four others, but the originators of a plan to revive an abandoned, 90- year-old coastwise shipping line were three New England boys, the eldest a 1936 graduate of Massachu setts Institute of Technology. The leader of the bold pioneers was John C. Stapler, a graduate of Tech's ship operation course and employee of a New York steamship line. With him were Alden H. Anderson, An-derson, a classmate and employee of a Boston ship agency, and Frederick Fred-erick E. Drake Jr., who left Bow-doin Bow-doin college to ship around the world as an assistant purser. Stapler is credited with or blamed with the business venture. Old Hulks Tied Up. Early in 1935 the Eastern Steamship Steam-ship lines suspended operation of their Bangor-Boston line and, despite de-spite protests of a few shippers, tied up several old hulks and announced they never would run again. But Stapler had other Ideas. He called a score of meetings with Anderson An-derson and Drake where they pored over maps and charts, figured gross tonnage and discussed maritime labor la-bor problems. The upshot was that all three threw up their jobs and gallantly dumped their savings into a common com-mon pile, but it was scarcely sufficient suffi-cient to meet their personal needs. So with an inspired sales talk on their tongues and an armful of pa pers showing the advantage of a Diesel-powered ship for coastwise use, the frantic financiers sold stock to their friends to business men or anyone who would buy. They sold stock and bought the 150-foot Diesel-powered ship Penobscot. Penob-scot. They sold stock and bought paint They sold more stock and hired a crew. Last spring they announced a shipping schedule, loaded the vessel ves-sel with 38 tons of cargo and nosed out of the island-dotted harbor for points "down East." Beat Hard Luck. Off Rockland the engines broke down and the good ship Penobscot hobbled into port, unable to pro ceed for many days and with the cargo still undelivered. By hiring trucks the young owners own-ers delivered the cargo on schedule sched-ule and repaired the motors, but their bank account was woefully depleted. de-pleted. However, at Bangor the shippers were delighted at the resourceful skippers who delivered the goods on time and despite the accident were ready to ship again. That was the beginning of success. suc-cess. Since then the ship has increased in-creased tonnage on each trip. The engines have held together and there has been no labor trouble. Incidentally, with less than a year's experience, the youths are planning an expansion program that will take their ship farther north along the coast to get cargo from the fish canneries. "But," Stapler says, "that's another an-other story." GOVERNOR VANDERBILT He may be Gov. William H. Van-derbilt Van-derbilt to the social register, but he is just plain "Bill" to a host of friends.

The other day, a brisk, dapper little old man stepped into a big Wall street investment in-vestment banking office and asked ... for the top boss, " C. Durant with an air of In Scrimmage assurance. He Again at 77 had an audience full of business and stepping high. A friend, who was doing business busi-ness there that day, reports to me that the peppy visitor was William G. Durant, twice head of General Motors, once the master of $100,000,000, and that, at the age of 77, Mr. Durant was scouting new capital for another big tourney In motor finance. My friend couldn't learn whether wheth-er he got it, but said he had heard there was a deal on which might put Mr. Durant on the main line again. He said the little lit-tle Napoleon of early day auto finance looked as if he were about to merge all companies and skim the cream. It was in 1910 that the bankers crowded Mr. Durant out of the presidency pres-idency of General Motors. He was back in 1915 and out again in 1920, in the post-war crash, in which ha jettisoned $90,000,000 of his own money, trying to stop the down-slide down-slide of the stock. He took his losses casually and was busy for years in daring market forays, but never quite converted any of his passes. An acquaintance of this writer, who knew Mr. Durant well, told me how he laughed off his second relinquishment re-linquishment of hit motors kingdom. "I built the greatest automobile automo-bile building in the world, at Detroit," be said, according to my informant, "and when I did It, I fixed it so they won't soon forget me.

So did the king in Kipling's poem, when he was pulled off his big pal ace building job, when "They said thy use is fulfilled." He "Carved on every timber and cut on every stone," and the poem concludes, "After me cometh a builder; tell him I, too, have known." rjOR several years. Dr. Karl T. " Compton, president of Massachu setts Institute of Technology and one of the nation's greatest scientists, . has explored the For Science- no man'S iand Government between an ex- Collaboration Pandfta govern-ment govern-ment and an expanding ex-panding technology. He thinks they ought to get together but he is no advocate of bureaucracy or extreme federalization. He doesn't like the idea of the government getting on anybody's neck. He thinks the gov ernment, with its vast resources. might be an invaluable collaborator with science, and should be, in fact, but he advances this idea warily, as he finds creativeness and social progress in the old American free' for-all, without elaborate govern mental trimmings. He never claimed an Ivory tower, and sees the problem in its simple social components of jobs, a rising standard of living, social progress and security. He notes the job-killing potentialities potentiali-ties of the machine, in certain individual instances, and assesses as-sesses industrial management with finding a corrective. This qualified admission is in sharp contrast to the view of Dr. Robert Andrews Millikan, another distinguished scientist who has wrestled with the same problem. Doctor Millikan is for throwing the throttle wide open, with the certainty certain-ty that machines ultimately will make more jobs than they destroy. Both, however, prescribe as a cure ! for our technological ills more of , the hair of the dog that bit us. The : difference in view is that Dr. j Cumpton urges certain collective ! rationalizations and judicious self-imposed self-imposed controls by industry and , management. For many years Dr. Compton has been blasting at the inner I citadel of the atom to seize there the hidden golden key of umlim-ited umlim-ited power which has long been mc "pie in the sky" or the great physicists.
