Last Night Screams
What They Mean
DID you DREAM ABOUT GOATS?

EREUD states that modern dream
l. books are but plagiarisms of an
cient Eastern writings of the same
character and are necessarily bad ones
because in nearly all cases the East
ern interpretations of dreams hung
upon a play upon words which is, of
course, lost In turning them into anOth-
er language. This statement may be
open to doubt and 1t is rather probable
that the modern empiric Interpretation
OF dreams has gradually grown up
through a mingIing of Teutonic. Celtic,
Gallo and ancient Roman and Greek
superstitiOns, which would account for
the divergence of the interpretations
with regard to their symbolism.
The most famous dream prophecy
depending upon a play upon words is
that given by the sOothsayer. Arts
tandros, TO Alexander when that mon
arch was besieging Tyre. Alexander
was much disturbed by the stubborn
resistance Of the city and the cOnse-
quent delay In his plans of conquest.
One night he dreamed that he saw one
of those goatlike NEUROLOGICAL crea-
lures SdlEr-Ireek OAtSTOS- idnc-
ing on his shield. He demanded o.
AristandrOs the meaning of the dream.
At once the sOothsayer replied by d.
viding the word into Sa Tyros (Tyre)
Thine is Tyre Alexander took the
city.
Although Freud cites this as an ex-
ample of his statement IT will be no

sraI Financial Cooperation In

Speaking before highway represent

stated his belief that in the western
states. where large areas OF govern
ment lands are located. the federal
government should adopt a system OF
financial cooperation more liberal to
the states than Is the case IN the rest
Of the country.
Il think we must recognize the fact
that the existence OF these large areas
OF government lands places these
states In a somewhat different situa-
ton from the remainder OF the cOUn-
Try" said Mr.. Meredith, ~and that IL
would be only equitable for the fed
eral government to increase its per
centage Of cooperation over the
present basis. I am also heartily IN
favor OF continuing the appropriations
for the building Of national forest
roads These forests constitute a
great natural resource, and their
preservation and development is a ma
tionaI responsibility which ought to
be met In full measure.
Mr, Meredith advocated active con-
tfnuatiOn OF present federal and state
cooperation in connection with state
road systems with the systems OF ad-

ing out OF an adequate highway pro

also advocated the continuance OF
