Those interested in such things might clip this out for their ; serap book. The seven wonders of the world were | so named by Antipater, a writer of Pales- | tine, about 100 B. C., as follows: The Hanging Gardens of Babylon, de- stroydd 4 in 484 B, C., more than 400 years | before they ere i isted ‘among “the” wons The Temple of | Diana» at i Ephesus, |’ burned in 262 A. D. The Statue of Zeus at Olympts; de- | stroyed in 408. The Colossus of Rhodes, sold for junk | in 653. The Lighthouse of Pharos at Alex- andria, fell in an earthquake in 1375. The Mausoleum of Artemisia de- stroyed in 1402. The Pyramid of Cheops, the only one of the “Seven Wonders” still in existence. Such were the seven wonders of the ancient world. Many lists of modern won- ders have been made, but a recent writer ‘selects not the perishable works of man, but the discoveries and inventions which have revolutionized civilization. ena He names the radio, the telephone, the airplane, the .gntiseptics, spectrum analysis and radium. Whether his list is the best that might be made or not, the wonders mentioned will survive as long as humanity exists, bestowing untold bene- fits upon mankind. A MODERN PROBLEM Will the macrine age eventually crush the inidvidual—will the individual over- throw or avoid a machine existence—or will he adapt himself so as to live com- fortably and effectively at peace with the mighty forces that now surround him? Dr. W. E. Dixon, of Cambridge Uni- versity, one of the world’s greatest thera- peutists, says: “Our life has changed from a struggle for existence to a struggle for social precedence. The advance of ‘seience has limited the need for manual Dr. Gerd Cehak of the Reich Acad-! semy’s Biological Institute contends that -women are quicker than men in gestures, “speech and movement. It is generally “known that they are quicker moved to Tanger, and Heaven knows they can talk ~faster than men, Not strangely at all, the newspapers fof the totalitarian states ruled by Dictators SMussqyin) Wier ang Stalin . sided with resident Roosevelt on the supreme court abiun-prany alild!'thé Constitution is referred to as old-fashion@d and de- ribed as out of place in this complicated! offs Ye HhiioRnA When the writer visited the mag- snificent Supreme Court building in Wash- “ington recently, he observed that the ar- ‘ray of seats for the justices just about took up the width of the court chamber, so the “addition of six justices would have created a crowded condition and required a “re- novation” of the building, too. > here is talk of reprisals by the ad- - ministration against those senators who ‘opposed its packing of the Supreme Court. At the same time those senators, who were supiuely willing to have the Supreme Court made into a rubber stamp body of assenters, will have to do some tall ex- plaining to their constituents when the «time for re-election comes around, When things go wrong we might think of the philosophy of the little old lady who fairly exuded joy at all times, good or bad. Asked how she did it, she = declared she was daily fortified by the “Biblical promises”. Pressed to name the one which impressed her most, she beam- ‘en her slogan or the meaning is the same. ed: “Grin and bear it.” But leaving all pleasantries aside there must be some pas-} who was declared to have been we in the Scriptures that has a bearing} labor and made natural outdoor life of man rarer and indoor mental life com- moner. The changes in natural life con- stitute some of the causes which lead to neurosis; but the universal and regular consumption stimulants is another cause. There is little doubt that their inordinate use over many years predisposes to _ ir- ritability and unstability, which are characteristics of a neurotic person.” He believes that the desire for arti- ficial relaxation is also responsible for the resorting of the hard-pressed individual to } alcohol and larger quantities of tobacco, which agents temporarily relieve fatigue and depression in the central nervous sys- tem. But normal play, sport and physical exercise also relieve the higher brain cen- ters, and might well be substituted for cof- fee, alcohol and tobacco with benefit to the individual, according to Dr. Dixon. THE FIRST SLAVE TRIAL i The French people claim with pride that their country was the first in Europe to have chattel slavery declared by a court to be unlawful. From Paris comes the story of the famous case, Denmark was the first European na- tion to declare by legislative act that all human beings on its soil were free. That was in 1792 and the law took effect ten years later. But the legal case of John Boucaux, who was set free by a French court in the time of Louis XV, came a half- century earlier. Boucaux had been brought to France from Martinique, in the West Indie Monsieur de Verdelin, whom _the served as a cook, he was in a free country, Boucaux de- manted Wages.” His mastére Peply Was toy haxe.him putin the prison of the Chatelet, at'Paris. Bogucatix was ‘‘liberated after Uilays, there being no law to fit his! , and he thereupon sued his master for ten years’ arreas of wages.
