Holland Holds View in Reply
to French Memorandum
on Proposal.
Nv the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
PARIS, July 4-The government of
the Netherlands has informed the
French foreign office Of its belief that
the ground had not been sufficiently
prepared for a federation of European
states, as recently suggested in world
wide memorandum Of Foreign Minister
BRAND.
Holland submitted a formal reply to
the former premier's proposal, which
was made public today.
The Dutch officials expressed a lively
appreciation of Frances initiative, but
suggested that further exchanges must
take place before the project could
proceed.
The memorandum submitted today
expressed fear that such a federation
might prove an embarrassment to the
League of Nations and that continental
grouping might, in practice, aggravate
differences between the continents.
The Holland foreign Office in another
reservation, takes issue with NJ. Brands
suggestion that the proposed federation
should be based first on political ac-
cord and then upon economic grounds
Holland feels, the memorandum says
that regulation of political issues is not
necessary to a general lowering of Gus
toms duties which by implication 1t
stresses as the most important problem
confronting Europe today.
In official circles the reply was taken
as encouraging. 1t was considered that
the objections raised would be in no
way difficult to overcome. French
officials pointed out that Foreign Min
lister BRAND always considered that such
a federation must be grated upon the
structure of the League of Nations and
could not succeed II in any way In
imical.
To the idea that the federation might
aggravate the differences between con-
tinents, the French today replied that
It would manifeStly reduce the number
Of problems separating them

Health and Happiness
Too Lightly Regarded ?

Despite the great mergers and in
ternational financing so common to-
day, the gentle art Of proper, healthy,
lengthy and joyful living remains the
biggest business on earth, John Clar-
ence Fung declares in Hygeia Maya
zine. in an article directed to business
men.
Many men Of affairs display intelli-
gent interest in their health, but there
are hundreds who imagine that they
enjoy a privileged immunity against
the infractions of fundamental living
habits One finds bed manufacturers
who use beds as little as anybody; pro-
ducers Of health foods who regularly
eat anything and everything until their
capacity fails; jobbers Of gymnasium
equipment whose personal experience
is limited to an infrequent stroll over
a golf course; and resort hotel men
whose fresh air is obtained only when
they retire at night, this health work
er charges.
Too much food, too little exercise
and too little sleep are constantly tax
ing their toll from prosperous busi-
ness men. Heart disease, cancer and
diabetes attack staggering number.
This situation could be changed
overnight, Doctor Funk insists, If
business men would use the simple ex-
pedient of having annual physical ex-
aminations. Early diagnosis is the
secret in combating many conditions
that insidiously gain Roadway.

Weight of Experience
Surely With Solomon

When William Jennings Bryan but
tonholed John Baird. to talk TO him
about marrying his daughter, Mary
Elizabeth, in his dilemma, the young
man sought refuge in the Scriptures,
and began:
Mr. Baird, have been reading
Proverbs a good deal lately. and find
that solomon says, Whose findeth a
wife, fndeth a good thing and obtain
eth favor OF the Lord"
Mr.. Baird. being something Of a
Biblical scholar himself. replied:
YES, / believe solomon did say
that, but Paul suggests that while he
that marrieth doeth well, he that mar
rieth not doeth better"
This was disheartening. chuckled

Solomon would be the better au,
thority upon this point" rejoined Mr..

ried. while Solomon had a number OF
wives"
After this friendly tilt the matter
was satisfactorily arranged.-Kansas

best Of his poems Though he was very
unwilling to read it aloud, because, il
he did so at all, he liked TO read it

did not write more long poems than
he did was probably due to a very Gu
rious flash Of insight which caused
him TO say once, Il can execute like
Shakespeare, but | have nothing in

ed as the antithesis of Wordsworths

Hosiery of Mixed Color
Fad of Centuries Ago

The bright-colored hose worn in the
Fourteenth century reused the ire OF
even Chaucer, who declares that "the
wrapping Of their hose which are de-
ported of two colors, white and red,
white and black, or black and red and
white and blue, make the wearers
seem as though the Fire of st. An
thony or other such mischance had
cankered and consumed one-half Of
their bodies"
The fashion of wearing two colors,
(which rendered uncertain the fell
lowship of the legs" continued in spite
Of the ridicule and satire of the poets
and chroniclers, until the middle Of
the Sixteenth century.
The long hose or herlots worn by
persons of quality at the time were
made of the finest cloth or velvet, and
there is record of Henry III ordering
three pairs for his sister Isabella,
which were to be of velvet embroi-
dered with gold. Knitted stockings,
or, as they were originally called,
stocking hose, were introduced into
Britain in the Sixteenth century, and
those of silk we're considered such
luxury that they were thought pres
ent fit for king, so we find Sir Thorn
as Gresham presenting pair of long
Spanish silk hose to Edward VI
