EDITORIAL
OF THE DAY
ESSE NON yIDERE

This is Latin motto-translated:
FBe. not seem TO be-"
IL was brought TO my attention the
other day when l saw it cut into stone
on the front OF fireplace in a friend S
home.
/ thought il was splendid motto
for a home. where we seem 80 often to
be something that we are not. And
l believe that il is better motto for
us all TO carry with US every day as
we go into the work of the world.
Be-do not seem TO be!
Simplicity, sincerity and genuineness
are everyday qualities-but rare none
the less.
We see posers everywhere we go. The
other day | witnessed a group of wo-
men urging another TO take luncheon
with them. The casual observer would
have imagined that she was most
intimate and much loved associate. But
no sooner had this woman gone than
the whole group seemed 10 vie with
each other as 10 which one could say
the most unkind thing about her.
There are many people whom we are
always glad TO see-for no matter how
many times we see them. they come
back with the same stamp OF worth.
All the announcing in the world
which we make Of our abilities and
merits will go for naught II We have
nothing TO back our claims.
Be-do not seem TO be!
The wax model has to be kept from
the light and sun. Pretense shrinks
from too much gaze and glamour. The
plated metal has limited time in
which II may pass for the solid and the
real. Nothing can seem to be for long.
II must either be-or pass for what II
Is.
So you try 10 be real-exactly what
you are-and try to Be somebody

PAPA AND MAMA

Strange Things happen in the
jungles. Carveth Wells, explorer
and lecturer, tells about the horn
bills, longtailed birds SO big they
often measure five feet from tail-tip
to beak.
In Malay jungles, Wells saw the
male hornbill during the mating
season drive the female into hol-
low tree, then wall up the opening
with mud.
This protects Mama Hornbill
against enemies. She stays in her
jail until eggs are laid and Matched.
Then Pa lets her out. Meantime,
he has fed her through a small
opening left in the mud.
He gathers the food by using his
saw-toothed beak to cut fruits and
flowers from their stalks. Maybe
that's where man originally got his
idea for the saw, now used to cut
boards.

A desert sheik is fascinating be-
cause of his luxurious life-parti-
cularly the luxury of summoning
regimnet of kowtowing servants by
the mere clapping OF hand.
The best that the movies can do,
in picturing luxury, is tame com
pared with the genuine luxuries OF
the ancient Orient
For instance, Abulfeda-the re-
porter r-historian of Damascus 1000
years ago-wrote this description OF
the Caliph Moktadcr's court in
Bagdad:
Near his state officers were 1000
eunuchs. The porters and door
keepers were in number ZOO Barges
and boats with the most superb
decorations were seen floating upon
the Tigris. Nor was the palace it.
self less splendid, in which were
hung up $4,000 pieces of tapestry,
1880 of which were OF silk en-
broidered with gold. The carpets
on the floor were $4,000. A hum
dred lions were brought out with a
keeper to each.
Among the other spectacles Of
rare and stupendous luxury was a
tree OF gold and silver spreading
into IS larger branches, on which,
and on the lesser boughs, sat var
iety of birds made of the same prec-
ious metals, as we'll as the leaves OF
the tree. The birds warbled their
natural harmony, each in its own
strains, the whole being effected by
the spontaneous motions of ma
chinery."
Emperor Shih Huang ii, builder
of the Chinese Wall. had gor-
geous palace OF 1901 rooms, also a
large bathing pool filled with the
oldest OF fine and expensive wines.
Compared with those ancient
days, the modern world does not
know what luxury is.
And that is a mighty good thing.
For the luxury OF the ancients
was enjoyed only by few, sup
ported by millions OF slaves who
toiled under the lash until they
were exhausted and allowed to re-
cuperate in sleep like over-worked
horses and oxen.
Luxury has vanished. So, too,
for the most part, has human
slavery.
