LIVES FOR TWO YEARS
ON 10 CENTS A DAY
Then His 1,1OO Roll Brings Sc
bastian Gada1es to Cell in Phila-
delphia Police Station.

PHILADELPHIA, December EFF YOU
had lived on 10 cents day for two
whole years. boarding each days pay as
IT came along. and then, when you had
amassed $1,1OO. you were arrested Just
for having too much money-how would
you feel about it?
That's what Sebastian Gadales did and
that's what happened to him. He occu-
pied q cell in city hall last night while
detectives guarded his roll, but he had
so far convinced them that il represented
years OF self-deprivation that it was de-
cided he should be taken before a mag
istrate yesterday and released.
Sebastian talks very little English, and
1t was hard for detectives to get what
information they have concerning him,
but they are now convinced that what
OF his lodgings-comparativ httle-he
managed to sustain life for two whole
years on an average of 10 cents a day
and saved the rest
Gadales has been employed in the
chemical plant OF Harrison Bros & Co.,
Both street and Grays Ferry road = He
became affected with lead poisoning and
applied at the University Hospital for
treatment. When he was discharged
Christmas morning he opened a lining
of paying for the care he had received,
and this disclosed his hidden wealth.
The amount of money he had was so
out of keeping with his ragged appear
ance that the hospital officials called in
the police. Gadales was brought to city
hall and accepted as a suspicious char
acter. Then the story came out concern
ing his boarding.
Even then he was reluctant to tell
much about his manner of living, bat he
did say he had tried to make his ex-
penses, outside of his lodgings, average
10 cents a day. If the cost ran few
cents above that on one day, he pared
down the next to make good.

his mightiness, for IL will be the first

To Study Production First.
The work Of the committee will be CEN

The awarding of the Nobel prize for
'idealistic literature to Rabindranath
Tagore, the Bengali poet. essayist, COM
poser. playwright and philosopher. has
aroused a great deal of discussion and
commentator in the literary world.
Magazine and literary reviews are pay
ing much attention to his work.
While Tagore is being discussed and
written about In America and Europe, he
has been busy criticising the poetry and
literature of this side of the world. He
recently wrote an article on William But
Ter Yeats, which displays his way Of
looking at the occident.
Language Richly Developed.
With other things. he said:
when 1 read the works of the present
poets of England. l realize that most Of
them are poets not of the universal but
of the literary world. Verse-making has
been going on in this country for long
time. SO the language of poetry has most
richly developed in the fields of meta
phor, smile. imagery and general tech
nique. 1t has. indeed. come to such a
pass that 1t Is not even necessary for
the poets of this country to go to the
fountain head of poetry for inspiration
in verse. making. The modern English
poets have become experts-specialists.
They do not even feel the necessity of
singing from the innernost chambers of
their hearts. Now songs are emanating
from songs. When words do not proceed
from that inexplicably aching feeling of
the heart, but from words, then language
begins to flourish in all it's intricacies and
wealth of color and shade. Feeling hav-
ing relegated it's province from heart to
words, the language has lost its SIM
plicity. Having no faith in itself, and
being bereft of all originality, and yet
bent on proving it's worth and beauty,
feeling rushes in mad pursuit after ex-
aggeration. and so has to cloak itself
In the garb of something extraordinary.
At this stage word-workmanship attains
the summit Of perfection"
