Chess

G.. G-When did chess originate? Is
the account of the invention of chess
by Brahmin based upon fact?
The oldest chess Of which we have
any knowledge is the Indian four
handed game of chance called Chat
uranga but the question as TO the right
time when or the exact place where the
invention took place remains still to be
settled. The favorite hypothesis of the
extreme antiquity of chess is utterly
false. The only facts revealed by his
torical research are that the irst men
tion of chess is made by the Arabian
author Masudi, who lived in the tenth
century, that the game certainly existed
in Hindustan in the eighth century.
and that it was brought to Europe Nv
the Arabians and Crusaders. All that
goes beyond is pure myth. The well
known account of the invention of chess
By the Brahmin Sissa has for it's basis
only the fact that prince by this
name really regned in India about the
beginning of the Mahometan era 1922
A. d.; otherwise it is only a beautiful
hction.

Cotton Goods Trade

Primary cotton goods markets have
been active and firm, with price ad-
vances continuing on many lines. The
fine and fancy goods lines are quiet,
but staples in heavy constructions are
being bought in large way for con-
tract deliveries running to the middle
of next year Bag manufacturers have
been large operators and have pur-
chased heavy sheetings and other spe-
cial cloths as substitutes for burlap.
Such cloths as threeyard drills are
selling at 1719 cents yard in large
way. .
The government is a steady buyer OF
MANY goods. Print cloths in odd con-
structions and widths have been active.
Colored goods are firm. Mapped cot
tons are being bought freely for con-
tract delivery, and the demand for
spot and nearby goods is in excess OF
the supply. Blcached cottons are firm
and quiet. Ginghams continue in good
demand. Yarn markets are frmer and
higher.
Quotations are as follows: Print
cloths. 2S-inch, 64x64s, 81s cents; 64x
COS, 81 cents; 3Sh-inch, 64x64s, ia
cents; brown sheetings, Southern
standards, 17h to I'm cents;
denims, 2.20 indigo, 80 cents; tickings,

Comment allez-vous C"How goes

The salutaton of the ancient Greeks
was both affectionate and jovial. BE

has even in this respect, as in so many
others, produced nothing original, Tor
it is evident that their I'll kamahis

cart for Arts Sake"

Patriotism versus Art-What is this
"Art for the sake of art" which the ad-
vocates of German music in the CON
troversy regarding German opera In
New York seemed to value higher than
patriotism?
The vehemently mooted catchword of
modern literature, "art for arts sake"
the English for the French "lart pour
Part" owes It's origin to Victor Cou-
sin G792-lS67). In enc of his lectures
on philosophy delivered at the Sor-
bonnie in 1918 Cousin evolved the idea
that religion and morals were the most
sublime there is in the world; they
should therefore never be made to
serve any other interest but its own.
The words "l'art pour Part"-"art
for its own sake" the demand that the
object of art consisted in nothing else
but in itself, that it must not be made
TO serve any other purposes-be they
instructive, moral, patriotic or other
than the beautiful, was soon violently
combated. Among others, Rud. Topffer
attacked it in his Reflections ct menus
propos dun peintre genevois" paris,
l848). Art for the sake of art" he
says, "is just as absurd as speech for
the sake of speech, pictures for the
sake Of pictures, style for the sake of
style. form tor the sake Of form" Il
was just as vehcmently defended. "Art
for the sake Of art" soon became the
warcry of the decadents and the i'm
pressionists, and was with particular
consistency fought out-theoretically
as we'll as practically-by Theophile
Gautier (1S11-72), and his school,
Charles Baudelaire, Theodore Baaville
and others.

On hearing that the conference In
Washington had been called only for

prices jumped. January sold up to

The trade was considerably interest

official rates of the British govern

Northern ports and 1925 from South

vantage. The expectation is that there
will be an adjustment and that the two
governments will name identical rates.

Red Cross Calls for Million
Sweaters for Men Going Abroad
Women Who Knit for
Themselves While Our
Soldiers Freeze Knit
for the Kaiser
By Caroline Ticknor
of the Vigilantes

Just now there is big drive on TO
secure sweaters for our boys in camp
and for those going off to France. Our
soldiers, who are going out to stand be-
tween US and the guns are cold. The
Red Cross is calling for million he'll
NETS and sweaters, and thousands of
devoted women are working overtim"
trying to fill this great demand. Wool
is expensive, some of our women are
going without the things they want, yes
need, in order that they may Guy 1t.
Some of our women would gladly knit
if they could buy the necessary wool,
but they have not the money. And IN
the meantime there are thousands of
women able-bodied and well-to-do knit
ting pro-German sweaters for them
selves. Knitting for Germany.
A few days since ! visited the
worsted counters of several Of our
big department stores to get some
wool to finish up q soldiers sweater.
Before these counters ! found that
women were lined up three deep pur-
chasing wool ana neeules. iOoheu az
them with satisfaction; our women
were certainly awake TO the needs OF
our "boys." g,
And thenl | suddenly discovered
that they were buying pale-greens, and
pinks, and blues; only one woman IN
a dozen was calling for the gray, or
khaki.
These were the scraps of converse
tion which greeted my astonished ears:

Japan has no state religion. and no

True. a few Buddhist temples receive
subsidies from the state, but this is
because of the antiquity of the build

the remainders Of masterpieces of art,
and not because Buddhism is favored
as a religion. In the japanese schools
all religious instruction is forbidden.
