Easter! And our line of thought
Immediately turns to excellent
church services with beautiful mu-
sic. We always associate lovely flow
ers with Easter, too. That is for
the spiritual side of our nature. AS
for the physical side, we think of
new attire, vacations and Atlantic
City boardwalk. Each has its part
in our daily life, and speaks for our
individualism or personality, as
no one these days can Vouchsafe an
answer for the masses. No matter
what our inclination may be for the
day, we all hope for pleasant wea-
ther.

 According 10 II. r. Jayne. direc- tor of the museum, the relics date back 10 the eighth century B. C. and cannot he duplicated in any museum in this country and few abroad. They are what the Greeks called "3yXides." or covered jars for cos metics made of carefully prepared red clay on which designs are paint ed in lustrous black.

 Tho particular relics acquired by the museum are DIpylon vases. the name usually given to Attic geometrlc vases from the fact that most Of them were found in the cemetery in front Of the gates Of Dipylon, outside Of Athens, and eXampIify 10 the highest degree the best development Of the geometrc style.
 There is an even covering on the surface Of the vases that gives them 8 carpet like appearance, and this textile expression is strengthened by the geometry Of the ornamental lion, The sHastika, or ancient sym bol Of good luck. known all ever the world is much in evidence and con- tributes enormously 10 the severity Of line which Is so important fac totr in classical vase painting

TEMPERANCE CUTS
 GERMAN REVENUES
Growing Abstinence Reduces Gain From State Monopoly

Berlin, Aug. Is. LP-Through the growing abstinence of Germans from hard liquor, the government i; facing material loss of revenue from it's state alcohol monopoly.
 This years profits were estimated a. S90,O00,000, an increase of 25 per cent over the previous year. But returns thus far indicate that there will be a deficit of around 40 per cent in this important item.
 Sales of alcohol for industrial purposes show a slight increase and the use of alcohol in motor fuels is about at the same level The difference. therefore, lies in the smaller consumption of schnaps and cordials.
 Two main cures are being con sidered. One is to increase the percentage of alcohol in motor fuels. It now stands at 25 to 75 per cent benzol.
 The other remedy proposed is a9 increase in the price of dis tiled alcohol. Business circles. however, say this will result in trimming the dog from the tail, as the present augmented price of $50 q hcctolitre led to & reduction O. one-fifth in the consumption Of cordials in 1928.
 To add 10 the woes of the mo- nopoly managers, is the fact that they held over 4o0,00O hectolitres O alcohol from last years supply while this year an exceptional po- tato harvest has kept-the countrys 52.6oo distilleries going at aug rented speed.
