It would be well, therefore, If societies such

Lord Balcarres in England, were TO be organ
lied in all the different countries. and partic-
ularly here in America, with a view 10 the re
production OF such treasures in private ColleC-
tons as are known to be unique. There should
be no objections raised by the owners Of these
collections. For otherwise they would lay them
selves open not merely 10 charges Of selishness
in wishing TO preserve for their eyes alone the
intellectual feast derived from gazing on a
unique masterpiece OF ancient or modern art
but they would likewise show that they are
more Indifferent than rich people in the Old
World TO the moral obligations Of wealth and
especially to the obligations that are entailed
by the possession OF art treasures. In England

money thereto, so that in the event Of their

Austin Spencer, speaking to a

lot sale down there, said in sub.
stance that: Mercury is great
surprise to those who are strang-
ers there. 1t is situated in a
pretty valley, has clear, cold
water, as cold as that in mouptain
regions and is a very picturesque
place.
A good many San Angelo people
attended the town lot sale and
some of them made purchases, u
great many more are interested
and will probably pay the little
city another visit this fall
The town of Mercury IS situated
20 miles north of Brady and 20
miles south of Brentwood, about
/ miles from the Colorado river.
1t has pretty new depot, large
gin, two hotels. telephone eX-
change and a full quota of other
businesses. In Mr.. Spencer's
opinion it would make an ideal
place for the summer residence OF
well-to-do people, and is sugges.
tive of rest and recreation.
