Foreigners write erroneously of Mr. | Venizelos as of a “very old man,” but as age is reckoned in_statesmen, this is an exaggeration.

His health is evidently much better | than in 1924 when his fourth and brief | premiership of 24 days ended with a breakdown, for, no sooner had he re- covered from an attack of the dengue fever which this Summer has been devastating Athens, than he set out on a long journey to Rome, Paris, London and Belgrade and meditates another to Angora. The fact is that, like all ac- tive men, he is happiest and healthiest when at work; whereas, out of politics, he was forced to find scope for his ac- ivities in the task of translating Thucydides into modern Greek. He is | now able to return to the more con- genial exercise of governing Greece. Retired statesmen, even if they pos- sess literary tastes, like Roosevelt, Glad- tone, Lord Derby and Clemenceau, are | rarely happy in their libraries.
