a ND what are the scientific

No matter what they decide, will
they be able to convince a mother
that she doesn't know her own

She may be wrong and they may
be right, but what good will that

it?
Unless science and instinct accord
We merely have wrecked two or
three more lives in the name of
mechanical nature.
Meanwhile, medical skill could
have done its work without caus-
ing such a mess if it had not been
obsessed with the idea Of substi-
tuting the hospital for the home
on every possible pretext.
That is the great weakness Of hui
man nature. It can't seem to &C

into the ground.

L Must Be Biz

WYE not only want schools, hos
w pitfalls, prisons and factories,
but we want them to be bigger, and
still bigger.
Not only that, but we want them
all alike.
Since the dawn Of consciousness.
men have been infatuated with the
love of size and Standardization.
That love was the secret of an
Gent despotisnl, as manifest in
kingcraft, and it is no less the secret
of modern despotism, as manifest in
industrial combines and professional
bureaucracies.
It goes without saying that Or
ganization is essential to progress,
but instead of trying to get along
with the least, We seem bent on
developing the mr. ximum.
Our conception Of quality is asso-
ciated definitely with bigness.
We take it for granted that the
tallest building must be the best,
that the bank with the greatest
assets is the safest, and that the COL
lege with the most students will do
best by our boy or girl.

The Court Recess

A vacation Oy the supreme court, IN
spite of the fact that hundreds Of cases await
decision, may be easily explained. The abrupt
declaration of such recess In the absence
of two members, is not so easily understood
The supreme court Is the final word on
law and Justice. 1t holds the fate OF every
citizen who may become involved in litigation
of enough Importance to reach that body. IL
is presumed to be a deliberative, calm, I'M
emotional body.
Unless it is calm, deliberative, intelligent
all law fails and justice becomes a word IN
dictionary.
The facts are quite simple. On July
there was an announcement that the court
would return for deliberation on important
matters on July 81. The judges did return.
There were no important decisions. Three OF
the Judges, not waiting for their colleagues,
leave the judicial chamber with the an
nouncement that they will return only at
the call of the chief justice.
The three judges who took this action
were WiIloughby, Myers and Travis. the
Judges who were not consulted were Martlln
and Gemmill.
The members of this court are answer
able only to God and their own consclences.
They are beyond reach by the people who
selected them until their terms expire. They
are beyond impeachment or recall.
Il so happens that this court, as at pres
emf constituted, has rendered decisions which
have added little to public confidence IN law
and justice
The raising of salaries of legislators by
the legislature was upheld. Many lawyers
believed their constitution prevented SUCH
action.
The decision in the city manager case IN
Tndianapolis was not in accord with the opln-
ion Of leading lawyers and former judges OF
that court. The fact that the decision was
accurately forecast by politicians was at
least unfortunate.
Now that three members have openly
shown their indifference, if not hostility ana
lack of consideration, for two members OF
that body. can the court be said to be
calm and deliberative body?
II is within the rights of the people TO
know and to discuss the condition OF that
court. The people know that the Stephen
son case is undecided. Delay for an unusual
neriod can only excite comment and specu-
latiOn.
The cases of Duvall and Klenck, poht-
ical in their nature, rest on the dockets.
These men. convicted, are still at liberty.
Popular petitions to the chief justice to
curtaiI the recess are within the bounds OF
propriety, even under the broad powers OF
the court to punish for contempt.
Citizens who see a danger in delay might
be interested in this method of speeding up
the wheels of justice.

Hercules Is q Personifcation
of the Sun; HIS Story Is a
Solar Myth.
BY DAVID DIETZ'

THE story of Hercules and his
l. Iabors, a story familiar to all
readers, is really a solar myth, mod
ern study has revealed. Hercules in
the legend is a personifcation OF
the sun.
The legends Of Hercules have
played an important part in the
history of the world. They are the
subject of .nnumerable paintings.
References TO them are frequent in
literature.
They are, therefore, just one more
reminder of the important part
played by the lun in the life Of this
earth.
According to the ancient legend,
Hercules is set to perform great
number of difficult tasks. He is
successful in performing each one,
but he can not escape from them.
This is the basic idea of the Her
cules myths. The sun also, for all
its splendor, all its beauty, and all
its power, is bound by the laws OF
nature. 1t must rise, make its way
through the sky and set.
It must be remembered that
ancient man had only hazy idea.
of the realities Of nature. He per-
sonifed the things he did not un-
derstand. The change from night
to day was not some simple process
of nature, some facts easily ex-
planned by the turning Of the earth
on its axis.
The arrival of day marked the
end of a battle between the sun
and the forces Of night in which
the sun was victorious.

Second 100 Years

MO, few of us I think would care
IN to linger on so much beyond
the normal span. 1 suspect that the
second 100 years are much the hard
est. Think of having to be called
"Grandpop" for two-thirds of your
life, and to be under compulsion
every month to stop for tea at the
old folks home in order to show
true parental respect for a couple
of dozen assorted great grandchil-
dren.
The important point is not how
FARO Agha got to where he is, but
what his decision would be if he
had a chance once more to start
from scratch.
Next time I feel quite certain he
would not call for water and dried
dates, but say MAKE mine a Bronx
again and call up every Mrs. Agha
and inform her that I won't be
home tonight for dinner"

SAYS:

THE deeper we get into this busi-
4 ness of education. the less we
seem to know about it.
According to the conference re-
Gently held in Brussels, the real
need is shorter hours, smaller
classes, anc. less examining.
Thirty pupils are enough for any
class, we are told, and twenty-four
hours of instruction are enough for
any week.
Having put the world right on
these points, the conference declares
that more attention should be paid
to culture, and less to knowledge,
and in order to leave no doubt as
to what it means, adopts Edouard
Herriot's famous definition of cJA-
ture-''that which is left after we
have forgotten all that has been
learned"
In other words, education will at
tain its object when children no
longer remember what they were
taught.

Achilles

Il many other Greek myths.
Many authorities think that the
figure of Achilles in Homer's Had
really is a solar personifcation.
This does not mean that orig
inally there was not Greek hero
by the name OF Achilles. Many au-
thoritieS think that there was. But
it does mean that in time the hero
was deif1ed and stories were built up
around him of a legendary nature.
Many think that the attributes
given to Achilles by legend were
those which originally we're attrib-
uted to Apollo, the sun god.
G. F. Keary writes in Outlines of
Primitive Belief:
1.-THE likeness between Apollo and
Achilles scarcely needs to be pointed
out.
Each is the ideal youth, repre-
sentative Of young Greece"
Apollo, the sun god, was the most
conspicuous figure in Grecian
mythology. Songs poems and paint
ings celebrate the many incidents of
his career.
AS in the Case Of the Hercules
legend, these can all be traced to
early attempts to explain the obser-
vations of solar phenomena by re-
course to personif1cation.
Thus Daphne, the beautiful
maiden whom Apollo pursued, is the
personi1cation OF the flush of the
morning sky -tieh seems to flee
before the rising sun.

Struggle

TITO ancient man, the progress OF
l. the sun through a clouded sky
represented a real struggle between
the sun and the clouds.
He did not know, as we do, that
the clouds were in our own atmoS-
phere, while the sun was $4,000, 600
miles away.
The first labor of Hercules tells
how he slew the Nemean lion. He
is supposed to have torn off the
lions skin and draped it upon his
shield. This lions skin has been
compared to the way in which the
sun seemed to trail clouds behind
him as he rises or sets upon the
horizon.
His next labor was to conquer the
many-headed hydra. Each time
Hercules cut off one head from the
beast, two grew in it's place. This
incident again refers to the battle
which the ancients thought went on
between the sun and the clouds.
Like the heads of the hydra, the
supply of clouds seems inexhaust-
ible. No sooner does the sun con-
quer one batch of clouds than he is
beset by another.
Another myth concerning Hercu-
les tells of his madness, during
which he slew his own children. In
similar fashion, the hot summer sun
kills the growing plants which have
been purtTed previously by the
suns rays.
1t has been pointed out that Her
cules had to perform twelve labors.
There are twelve months in a year.
In similar fashion, each detail of
the Hercules legend can be coupled
with an attempt at Synbolizing or
explaining a solar fact.
The marriage of Hercules, for ex-
ample, to Hebe, the goddess Of
youth, after the performance Of his
twelve labors, signifies that a new
year begins at the termination of
each twelve months.

Question: What customs govern
the handling of luggage in Europe?
Answer: Europe has no checking
system as it is known in America
and due to this cause experienced
travellers usually prefer to use hand
luggage to avoid the difficulties OF
looking after their trunks. Porters
are usually to be found at all sta
tions.
