Junior,
Progress Denoted by
Ewlution of Window
Like mos! architectural terms which
are in records of the times
and the persong through which they
have passed, tb simple word “win-
dow” conveys a wealth of significance
both to the builder and the historian.
Originally window openings were pri-
marily for air (wind). hence the
pame window. They were also in
some cases intended for defense
against marauders and were, as civi-
lization progressed in later years, in-
tended for light.
Development through the centuries
has fostered the evolution of the win-
dow through the periods of a simple
opening in which was placeG olled
parchment or paper, and the first
crude glazed windows to the modern
steel casement which frames the out-
look from the modern homes of today.
As Europe gradually emerged from
the medieval ages the growing con-
sciousness of the peopie, and es-
pecially the landed people, began to
manifest itself in more comfortable
and then more artistic dwellings. The
window became a thing of beauty, its
different styles finding no higher ex-
pression than in the English homes
of the Tudor and Elizabethan periods.
Average Man Puts in
Eight Years of Work
The average man is at least sixteen
before he starts serious work and even
then there are not many of us who do
more than eight hours a day.
The average man’s working life is
about thirty years, so the person who
works eight hours out ef each four-
teen for thirty years has done ten
years’ work in his lifetime.
This is reckoning that he has
worked eight hours a day and seven
days a week, which of course, none of
us do. We have to remember the Sat-
urday half-holiday and Sunday, which
leave only 44 working hours for the
week, , This means cutting our ten
weeks dowu by roughly two years, so
that a life's work is reduced to only
eight years!
Another deduction must be made for
illness, so out of those eight years’
work another six months must be
taken. In point of fact, the actual loss
is a fraction under six months, but, in
round numbers, there is only seven
and a half years of work in the ordi-
nary person’s lifetime.

First of Vanderbilts
Builder and Fighter
Commodore Vanderbilt, who built
the foundation of the family’s wealth
upon the bottom boards of the pirogue
that plied the bay between Staten
island and Whitehall, appears to have
been neither a lovable nor a great-
hearted man. Arthur D. Howden
Smith, in his biography of Vanderbilt,
states specifically that he lacked those
qualities, and calls him a man “who
trampled ruthlessly upon all opposi-
tion, who had no spark of chivalry, but
a man whose ambition was to build
up, not to tear down. According to
his own standards, an honorable man.
And always a fighter; fighting for
steamboats, fighting for railroads,
fighting for life.”
He won at both the fighting and the
building. When his last illness was
upon him he called his son, Billy, and
said:
“Bill, I'm leavin’ ye close to $90,000,
000.”
“Yes, father,” answered Billy.
“What ye think the others are agoin’
to say?”
“What can they say, father?”
“Wish I knew. There'll only be
about $15,000,000 to divide among the
lot of ’em.”—Detroit
Poetic Tribute Paid
by Egyptians to Sun
A tribute to the orb of day
“The Literature of Ancient Egypt,” as
translated by Aylward M. Blackburn
from the German of Adolf Erman:
“When it is dawn and thou risest in
the horizon and shinest as the sun In
the day, thou dispellest the darkness
and sheddest thy beams.
“The Two Lands keep festival,
awake, and stand on their feet, for
thou has raised them up.
“They wash their bodies, they take
their garments, and their hands praise
thine arising. The whole land, it doeth
work.
“All beasts are content with their
pasture, the trees and herbs are ver-
. dant. The birds fly out of thelr nests
and their wings praise thy ka.
“The ships voyage down and up
stream likewise, and every way is
open, because thou arisest. The fishes
in the river leap up before thy face.
Thy rays are in the sea.”
So centuries before Christ, the earth
and they that dwelt therein felt the
ge to be up and doing with the sun.
Who spoke of Egyptian darkness?
No “Spooning” in Italy
“Spooning” is a custom unknown to
Italians, For Italian love-making is
highly decorous and conducted solely
with a flow of language which, if un-
derstood, would bring joy to the heart
of any American flapper. It is literally
impossible to translate the American
verb “to spoon” into the Italian lan-
guage without using words which to
Italians sound positively indecent. Yet
the custom has entered Italy, and the
Italians have been obliged to trans-
literate the American verb to meet the
situation. Near Genoa there is a park
in which appears a signboard Which
says, “Lo spunaggiamento severamente
proibito,” meaning “spooning severely
prohibited,”

Delightful Gossip
Gossip is what delights us all. In
gossip we deal with everything that
is personal to ourselves and personal
to those with whom we have some
authentic acquaintance. We—if the
purist will have it so—chatter. But in
chattering we are at ease. We are
not striving to appear cleverer than
we really are, or more learned. We
are not venturing out into the fields
that” we only pretend to know. We
are not being “intellectual” or “arty.”
We are just saying what comes into
our heads and to the tips of our ready
tongues about everything that we re-
gard as interesting.—Frank Swinner-
ton in New York Herald Tribune.
Tree Toads as Prophets
It is quite commonly believed that
the tree toad’s loud piping volce is
a sign of rain. Like must weather
prophets, however, he cannot be de-
pended upon. The skin of the tree
toad is very moist and is sensitive to
the least increase of moisture in the
atmosphere, He feels moisture in the
air before most other creatures do anil
it is his practice to let the world
know he is thankful for it. Where
he fools people, or rather where
people fool themselves, is in respect
to the meaning of moisture in the air.
It does not necessarily indicate rain,
but many believe it does.—Exchange.
Presidential Yacht
In the days of Presidential luxury,
which began with the Roosevelt ad-
ministration, the yacht Mayflower was
first applied to the purpose she has
since served. President Roosevelt
took over the vessel in 1902 by per-
mission of congress. Upon her decks
he introduced the Russian and Jap-
anese commissioners who met at
Portsmouth, N. H., and made the
peace between their countries, Since
then she has received the guests of
four subsequent Presidents, and has
served all of them a® a part-time
summer White House,

“That, sir, is a falsehood!” severely

The man who thought a buggy was
good enough
IN THE old days, a solid, conservative citizen might sniff and tell
you he didn’t read advertising.
He didn’t think so much of the horseless carriage, either. The
telephone was newfangled, and an insult to the United States mails.
As for radio, aeroplanes, wireless photography—if they had been
born then, he probably would have thought them abit immoral.
But he’s changed. He’s been educated. His point of view has
been made broader and more modern. He has been civilized—by
the automobile, the telephone, radio, advertising.
Every single one has opened up new paths for him, taught him
new things. Advertising, especially. Advertising tells him the new-
est things to wear, the best things to eat. Advertising tells his wife
how to make a home up to date and attractive. Advertising tells him
the prices to pay for things he buys, saves him from the old-fashioned
ways of doing business—helps him live well, keeps him modern.
Advertising can help you. The advertisements in this paper are
here to tell you many things that make life more comfortable, more
interesting, happier. Read them faithfully. They'll keep you
abreast of the times. They'll preyent you from becoming the type of
old fogy—who—sniff—doesn’t regd advertising.
