Only Three Remain

No ONE knows just how many of
these incredible contrivances old
Jacquet-Droz fashioned before he
died in 1890, but there must have
been more than dozen.
The only three that still exist
are the original trio - unnamed
to this day - that Jacquet-Droz
made nearly 200 years ago, the
triothatperformed allover Europe,
and that still terrifies the super

rational who visit the municipal
museum of Neuchatel on the first
Sunday of each month.
Edmond Droz, their guardian,
now in his sixties, was an appren-
tice matchmaker when he first saw
the three automata. He went on
to technical school and became a
qualified engineer, but still he was
fascinated by the lifelike move
ments of the children.

Jacquet Droz reached Paris
safely. and the mobiles of Versailles
summoned him to display his chill
dren to Louis XVI and Queen
Marie Antoinette. The artist was
the first to perform, and Jacquet-
Droz announced the young boy
would do portrait of His Majesty
himself. 1t was almost the end of
Jacquet-Droz's career.
For the lads def pencil strokes
quickly outlined the figure of
dog = and named it with a -four
ish, Mon Toutou. The King was
angered, but before he could sum-
mon the guards, the artist was at
work again. and this time Jacquet-
Droz made sure the cams were adj
justed properly. The portrait
was a fattering one, and the
Swiss watchmaker's fortune
was made.
The three "automates" became
the rage of Paris. Jeweled ladies
marveled and wondered whether
dwarf was not hidden inside each
figure. Mothers used the children
as models of elegant department in
bringing up their own offspring.
Assistant Escaped
| HEN Jacquet-Droz was invited
to Spain, to the court of Charles
III, to land hardly yet free from
the terrors of the Inquisition. Rid
ing his sealed coach and still SO
kilometers from Madrid, the Swiss
matchmaker was seized by Spanish
provincial police and ordered to
bring the devilish puppets to
life" The writing puppet had
hardly begun to pen "Somos ami
COS del Rey" eve are friends of
the king'), when Jacquet-Droz
was clapped in a dungeon and
stake was heaped with faggots.
But his assistant, Jean Frederic
Leschot, escaped and rode hell
bent for Madrid. Within a few
hours posse of the Kings royal
guard clanked into the village and
rescued Jacquet-Droz.
Soon the Swiss matchmaker
and his three children scored
fresh triumphs at the court of
King George Ill in England.
Then a party of Jesuits, travelling
to China, asked Jacquet-Droz for
an automaton that would write
holy precepts in Chinese and so
help to convert the heather. Later
from the despots of Cathay came
orders for more of the fantastic
creatures, and Jacquet-Droz grew
wealthy selling automatic to Orien-
tai monarchs for as much as $780,
600 each.
Only Three Remain
No ONE knows just how many of
these incredible contrivances old
Jacquet-Droz fashioned before he
died in 1890, but there must have

A Devoted Man

~ ~%VV&G3 N40"
| HEIR keeper then was Paul
Houriet, the towns leading watch
repair man, and young Edmond
persuaded Houriet to impart the
complicated secrets of the figures.
Thirty years ago Paul Houriet
died, and M. Droz took over.
The old man treats his charges
tenderly. If a worn spot appears in
the l8th-century gold velvet gown
of the girl, Droz summons Neu-
chatels best dressmaker to repair
it. If the artists human hair be-
comes tousled, or loses its sheen,
the best barber in town admins
tiers an olive-oil shampoo and
combs each lock in place.
This is real devotion. but
M. Droz is devoted man. Gould
say these are only machines?"
M. Droz exclaims. After thirty
years with the children, they are
far more than machines to me.
l have another daughter, too, one
who is flesh and blood, and who
will some day grow old as | do.
She writes, but her penmanship is
not as good as this boys here; she
draws. but she cannot do Mon
Toutou' or King George; she plays
the piano, but not the organ"
Nocturnal Music
M. DROZ'S old hands are extraor-
dinarily sensitive, and his ear is
quick. If La Musicienne" plays
off key, her guardian quickly un-
buttons the back of her dress and
plunges a hand inside her, explor-
ing the alignment of each cam and
lever. A swift adjustment, and her
fingers tap the notes out truly
again.
Citizens of Neuchatel who live
near the museum occasionally hear
plaintive notes of music late at
night, particularly in midwinter
when the moon shines brilliantly
through the vast panes of the
museum windows.
1T is old Edmond" the neigh
bors say when the music sounds,
gone to see that his precious chill
dren are not lonely"
Eyes, it is l." NJ. Droz admits,
pushing his glasses up on his wispy
hair. Sometimes, at night when
the moon is full, | go to them.
| wonder, even after thirty
years, are they really just ma
chimes, or is there life some
where within them? So there in
the moonlight l set them free -
the boys to draw and write, the
girl to play music, just as they
have done for two centuries.
And then, when their mechan-
isms slow, | say, no, they really are
only machines after all. D.. Or
are they?" The End

EDITOR OF CATHOLIC
COMMONWEAL ASSAILS
MCCARTHY OF WISCONSIN

A sharp attack against Sen. Joseph
McCarthy's habit of making improved
charges and preying upon the fears
and prejudices of the nation was
made recently by associate editor
Francis Downing of Catholic Com
monweal.
His article follows:
"The voice of Mccarthy was
abroad in the land and it was now
as it was in the beginning a poi
soned and fearful thing. 1t went on
forever making improved charges,
forever irresponsible, forever merely
free of libel; it went on exploiting
the insecure, the anxious, the con-
fused and the afraid.
at went on attacking Alger Hiss,
assaulting Mr.. Acheson, attacking
perverts, attacking unnamed Com
munists, attacking Yalta: praising
Mccarthy as if he were God and
Mccarthy had invented him, it went
on, the voice, and it harassed the
discomfort and it assigned guilt, and
it called names and it laid blame;
and it talked to the emotions, and
it was like balm and it assauged. In
every case where it made foreign
policy an issue it won.
st told no truth, and held no
answers, but it won. 1t is like the
taste Of pennies in the mouth; it
fills me with fear.
eve have known demagogues in
our political history, but this is
special kind-an evil kind, de-
Iiberate kind, it adds falseness to
the already false.
ut represents the other side of the
election coin. 1t is the spurious and
he counterfeit.
at would be legal tender nowhere
n any world where reason was and |
where intelligence was operative. Yet |
men took it as though it were legal
ender and had value and was clean
md bright and new, and had been
ninted honestly"

0vER-CR0WDIMG AT BOULDER is STATES MOST
PRESSING INSTITUTIONAL PROBLEM

ANACONDA = There are more
than twice as many children enrolled
in the Montana Training School for
Children at Boulder as are in any
other state supported institution for
children. Add to that figure the so
who are under six years of age at
the State Hospital in Warm Springs
and the long list of children waiting
to get into Boulder and the prob
lem of these children becomes the
most pressing one Montana has. This
is revealed in material submitted to
the Governors Interim Committee on
Warm Springs and Boulder and was
contained in the text of Governor
John w. Bonner's recommendation
made last week.
The Training School at Boulder has
crowded 556 children into space
meant for 371 due to the pressure
of the need of these patients. There
is actually no hospital, hence no ade-
quate receiving ward and no arrange
ments planned except on emergency
basis for isolation wards. The resi-
dence building used for a hospital
has no indoor entrance to the second |

OVER 20 PER CENT OF
HELENA DWELLINGS ARE
LISTED "SUBSTANDARDU

There are 1918 "substandard"
dwellings in Montana's capital city,
reports the federal bureau of the
census. In round figures, based on
national housing figures of "A people
to the average family, this means
that more than four thousand of
Helena's $4,000 people are living
in substandard dwelling units.
A copy of the bureaus special
tabulation for the local housing au-
thority defines "substandard" as "a
unit which is either dilapidated or
does not have these plumbing ia.
cllities: Flush toilet and bath inside
the structure for the units exclu-
sive use, and hot running water"
Owners occupy 272 of these sub
standard units, tire bureau said.
Renters live in the other SOC.

floor. The children sent to the school
have sometimes come in after being
exposed to disease or already i'll with
communicable disease and it is very
difficult to keep such child from ex-
posing the entire school,. Operating
facilities are poor and cramped. There
are seventy children under the super
vision of one employee.
DR.. A. E. Westwell, superintend-
ent at Boulder, has also recommended
that a power house installation and
other building repairs and replace
ments are needed to add to the eff
ficiency of operation. The addition
OF a refrigeration project would ia
cilitate the saving of food, add to
the attractiveness of the menus and
use to better extent the food prod
ucts which are produced on the farm
with the aid of many of the children
and young people who are able and
happy to work.
1t is about thirty miles from
Boulder to the nearest hospital in
either Helena or Butte and MANY
times these are over-crowded with
no special arrangements for caring
for mental patients.

MURRAY, MANSFIELD, ASSURED TRANSPLANT
OF ELK WILL BE CARRIED OUT

| to preserve range conditions anC
| forage.
We presented to the Secretary the
objections made by many sportsmen
to large scale killing of elk within
the Park boundaries. At the same
time, we urged expansion of trans
planting of live animals to other
areas in Montana where elk have
either been depleted or there are
no elk at the present time. The Sec
rotary assured us that he was TAX
ing personal interest in this mat
ter and that he had directed the Di-
rector of the National Park Service
and his associates to carry out to
the fullest extent the program of
transplanting live animals.
The following facts were pointed
up during our discussion:
l. The Park Service officials re-
port that the size of the Northern
Yellowstone Elk herd in the spring
of 1850 was estimated at 10000
head. Average annual herd increase
in this one area, through birth and
survival of calves to the age of eight
or nine months, appears to be about
200. Thus, it is estimated that the
present population of the Northern
Elk herd is $4,000 head.
2. Figures presented by the Park
Service officials show that an an
nual average of more than 1000 elk
in excess of the carrying capacity de-
termined in 1888 has been carried for
the past eight years as an over
burden on deteriorating range.
The above is the background for
the insistence of the Park Service
officials that between 5000 and 81
400 elk of the Northern Yellowstone
herd must be disposed of, starting in
January of 1851 The following steps
are to be taken:
A. The State of Montana has agreed
to take between 700 and 500 elk to
be transplanted to its own ranges
and an additional $50 head will be
shipped for release on privately
owned ranches. The Park Service will
NAoN oS W W u efiio pilllI adOlIiOiol
animals TO areas indicated by sports
men, provided, of course, that the
cost of such transportation is pri-
yately assumed.
B. They will also trap and truck |
ELK into an open hunting area north |
md east of Gardiner, Montana.
c. The Park Service has made a
to the Indians of Mon
ana for meat from 400 to 500 elk |
which will be killed in the Park.
We were advised that in order to |
'xpand the transplanting program,
he Park Service plans to have four
raps in operation this year instead
# only one as was the case last
ear. We were also assured that
he Service would welcome any and
II requests for live elk and any as
istance and cooperation the sports
zen of Montana who wish to partici-
ate in the program may offer. We
re confident that through this ex-
