A poet can write a poem about the "Little Red Schoolhouse," but Henry Ford can buy the schoolhouse. Each after his own heart. There Is the poet in Henry Ford, that Is, the sentiment senti-ment of poesy that leads him to seek the possession of the object of his sentiment. Wealth enables the magnate mag-nate to localize his feelings. Whatever What-ever he likes he buys, as nearly all of us, if we were able, would do. Rich men make all kinds of Interesting collections, col-lections, which they later bestow upon some museum, so that the public profits by their painstaking. This taste for collecting Is one of the most delightful de-lightful of employments. It resides In . almost every bosom and Includes In Its range everything, from old pipes to old rugs. The pipes cost an aver- age. of $5 apiece and the rugs about .$50,000.
