On Hobbies Oliver Wendell Holmes said orice to a young friend, "I believe that every man must have a hobby that is as dif ferent from his regular work as it is possible to be. It is not good for a man to work all the time at one thing." l)r Holmes carried out his theory by finding outside in terest in the shape of a carpenter uhop, which provided in abundance the diversion and change from hia literary and medical labors that he needed. Roosevelt also was a living exponent of this theory. He spent little time passively, but found his rest in change of occupation and attention to subjects quite outside the world of his" main career; He entered upon an African hunting trip with as much vim as he ever delivered a political speech, but the one occupation was u rest and lelaxation from the other. Too few people realize the Value of this kind of pro ductive rest. 1 Its object is not incessant activity, but the freshening of the faculties by turning them to entirely new activities, and thereby enriching and deepening the individual's interest .in the main work. i The main, job rarely suffers, by the maintenance of a hobby... Instead,. JV gains, in Jthe menBUre in which the one ! who holds the job profits by the hobby.

Well, you are in the same boat with most of us.' After the big wave of wireless telephony, enthusiasm died down a great deal. ; . : But don't believe the calamity howlers who say that that is the end of tho radio fad. Not a bit of it. They said the same thing about Alexander Graham Bell a gen eration ago, when he was. toying with the telephone. - .In his later yeais Dr., Bell wouldn't have a phone hi his house; he said it was a nuisance, and so, it must be confessed, it is. . 1 ! . ,' But it also is one of modern life's indisuensablos. So will radio be. The engineers of wireless haven't boon idle this summer. They knew that most of us soon would gel tired of radio. Now the entire process is being inlonsivclv studied, and one of these days radio truly will be the serv ant, instead of the mere entertainer of man, iust as the telephone became. Meanwhile, it's the concert and the crop report and the bedtime story most of us will want. Wait till tho long winter evenings. Then the electrical genius of the house- hold will be dragging his set out once more, and we'll tako turns again with the receivers to our ears. , uoltlttll fontl of sliimy tlrrt iiinl jrwi'lry win inn. nriiTiiMin to Ira, lulling H., hihiiII Miti nlnni; SIh wore a illiiiiKiiiil NimhtirKt f nmch Hhi was liHinlliilllcly pmllll.

A Umvii bni-Mim eritablifilirH Mlfetv s a eity when It A Friendless World A reviewer of books points out that the recent crop of translations is unprecedented. That i3 of good omen. As no man is sufficient unto himself, so is no nation. It is wen mr uie peoples or the world to come into the full, cpt .understanding of each other's literature. Such an un derstanding makes for world peace. , ,, The printing press is the most powerful factor in mak ing 'men feel the common brotherhood of humanity.! But language differences are a great barrier against interna tjonal understanding. It is very easy to gel the notion that the fellow who can't understand or s)eak your lan guage is a potential enemy. But when you can read his thoughts in your own forms of thought, and recognize that his desires and purposes and ideals are akin lo yours, you lose, the sense of alienation. . ' , .After all the great spirits among all the different ienples jret about the same revelations, have about the same aspir ations and believe in about the same principles. It is this community of spirit that translation helps to bring about. The world cannot have too much of this. roi on h i:.

The principal difficulty facing the introduction of mod ern improvements into China is (he universal objection: "This is not as our fathers did." . Imagine saying that we did n,.t want electricity be cause our forefathers were satisfied with candles. '. .' , Though we never went as far as the Chinese, our con servatisin in the past often went to considerable lengths. Think of the telephone, of the motor car. How much encouragement did they get at first?- Advertising more than anything else lias made of us a nation willing to judge something new on its-merits,' rather than on narrow, ancient traditions. Advertising today is an necessary as elect rieityTsani- ' tation and rapid transit. It is more than the system by which we arc kept informed of every new improvement that is to our advantage.
