These, incidently, are also the oldest, with an age ‘of around 5,000 years.

A reader of The Citizen wants to know what is meant by inflation, deflation and reflation. We're stumped. You tell it. : The high salaried presidents of big corporations should receive attention from the president next. Stockholders wouldn’t object. A Soviet painter has produced a pic- ture called “Happy Russian Miners,” which is conclusive proof of the artist’s vivid imagination. Even if Governor Sholtz imit\tes President Roosevelt in asking for dictator- pared with the largest animal, the whale, whose weight seldom reaches more than 100 tons. Yet a large elephant could maneuver inside a whale’s skin. Most wonderful is what we find among the smaller orders of life. We can see a flea, though with difficulty catch him, yet 80,000 would scarcely weigh a ounce. Some of the insects which are hardly visible to the naked eye, are fitted out with “compound eyes, a nice nervous — system, three pairs of jaws and three pairs of legs, veined wings and striped muscles.” Tiny birds weighing only 10 grams, or about as much as 10 large ants, fly thousands of miles during their migrations. And ants, by the way, are the strongest living things in proportion to their size. Man is about half-way in the scale between large and small mammals, and when grown he contains about a hundred million cells. . He requires all his brain to cope as well as his strength with the great animals on one side and the insects on the other. And then there are the mi- erobes to worry about. CHIEF HUMAN DESIRES According to an advertising authority, people are most easily sold something they strongly desire, or for which such desire of the average person, is suggested, includ- ing the following: To make money; to escape physical pain; to be comfortable; to avoid effort; to receive praise; to sidestep trouble; to attract the opposite sex; to be popular; to have enjoyment; to be in style; to save time—and some other desires closely allied to these. The above list consists principally of desires for things not absolutely essential to existence, as are food and _ clothing. When one stops to think of it, most mod- ern desires are for conveniences and lux- uries hardly dreamed of a century ago. In fact if people were suddenly to be- come satisfied with the mere necessities of life a majority of all industrial and busi- | ness enterprises would have to go out of business, which makes for a higher standard of living has been due largely to the power of ad- vertising. New devices and products which add to human satisfaction, comfort and enjoy- ment would make slow headway without advertising to create a desire for them on the part of the public. A CATHEDRAL RESTORED ° News from France that the magnifi- cent Rheims Cathedral has been restored, after the terrible damage it suffered dur- ing the war, will be most pleasing to every lover of architectural beauty. Americans will take especial pride in the fact that this restoration has been made possible largely through the generous donations of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., of New York. Rheims Cathedral is one of the finest specimens of architecture in the world, as well as one of the mast-historic. It stands on the site of a former church in which Cloyis, founder of the kingdom of the ial powers, he is entitled to this confidence | Franks, was baptized in the year 496. by the people because he has proved him- Self deserving of it, Figures compiled’ on the first month’s sale of legal beer show that Uncle Sam will reap nearly $300,000,600 a year in revenue, instead of $150,000,000 estimated by former Secretary of the Treasury Mills. Mapacssinatios Albee seems to- have run off the trolley in introducing house bill 1337, against the placing of wagers or betting, and making the offense subject to imprisonment or a fine as high as $250. However, pari-mutuel gambling is permis- sible. In other words the state wants to whole-hog all the funds that may be de- rived from betting on the ponies. Oh, well. The present cathedral was begun in 1212, and completed about a century la- ter, but numerous alterations have been made from time to:time. Here Joan of Awe caused Charles VII to be crowned inj} 1429, and here the kings of France were crowned for several centuries. Many of the elaborate sculptures which adorn the cathedral were destroyed or damaged by bombardments during the war, but fortunately photographs and casts existed to enable artists to copy the lost. masterpieces. So, once again Rheims Cathedral stands forth in its pristine glory and transcendent beauty. A turtle died in London at the age of 200 years. And probably never did a daily dozen before breakfast in its life. 36 Te 3%. Shelt ‘ of Aunawals born at Milford, ep 13, 1870. The creation of new desires | Harrangues 0. Bitter = 1 3.
