, NOT TOO MUCH LEISURE
1 An authority on the psychology of tho human race, while
addressing a conference on recreation, expressed the fear
that as leisure increases rrten will become increasingly inconv
petent to use it to advantage. He foresees a generation of
on lookers, as opposed to doers, too lazy to do more than
Watch. And he offers no preventive. 1
Men have at all times thrived best on work. ' Hands and
heads not busy at doing the useful seem to turn to evil
works.- There is a reciprocal relationship between indolence
and indigence, between inactivity and ignominy, between
leisure and license. Moreover, it is. true that the. sluggish
mind grows more so by inactivity arid that wits are sharpened
by exercise.
Man's new leisure is the fruit of his inexhaustible energy,
ingenuity and resourcefulness. It would be tragic were the
fruit to kill theree thatborc itj, Is civilization to perish at
the hartds of one ofits'own gifts to humanity? '
l!ut perhaps the professor's pessimism is not wholly justi
fied. ' Certainly there are millions who are putting their
, leisure hours ,to good uses with profit to themselves and
with benefit to society. This is not a generation of specta
tors, as the golf links, beaches, fields and streams attest.
Just as there are som,e who fail to make the most of their
hours' of labor there will be some who will waste their new
found hours of leisure. But the other kind are in the
majority.
FUTURE OF THE ARTS
In the words of n contemporary practitioner of novel and
dramii, "people today are so engulfed in the great singe of
life they can only look nnd listen, being quite unable to
stop."'
Years ago he predicted that the motion picture would be the
death, of the spoken drama, and he now has the courage to
predict a similar fate for the novel in competition with radio.
Civilization, he fears, is to be shorn of the arts that address
the -rriiiuii declining upon the primitive appeal to eye and
ear.' , ' ;.
'Such fears, or hopes, wear a different aspect as viewed in
tho backward perspective. Time was .when. 'it seemed that
the character of the press must be destroyed by a competitive
scramble'. What was once yellow journalism' survives mainly
in sensational typography, in pictures and comic strips. The
appcaV to mediocre mentality and morals still has iU reward;
but so has intelligence and sobriety of purpose.
The spoken drama is not yet dead, nor has it suffered a
decline in popularity. Productions are more numerous than
ever and the "run" of a success is longer. In Inith cases what
has come about it, first, an enlargement of tho public, and,
second, a separation of that public into the more and the less
intelligent. .
Far-from debasing standards, popular journalism and
moving pictures have come hand in hand with a steady ad
vance in the parent aits and have schooled multitudes in
their appreciation. However, it seemed for a time that
what Is called democracy was fixing all arts on a dead level
and on not too high a plane.

iMIT SJIJItlvS WAS "MIKKTY"
IN aii.VAS VUU.KGK DAYS
TKIILTACANA, Tex. AI') The
purtlulity of Arthur (and so forth)
Shires toward himself has been
traced to Westminster Junior col-
lego hero, where The Great One
wus known as 'Chesty" In his col
legiate days.
Former students recall that
Khlres, who persisted in wearing
his "I" sweater from Italy high
school us a college fresh, was the
greatest punter and line rummer In
"Westminster's football history. In
12 gamjes,ithlelic archives of the
sehool avow, Arthur averaged ex-i
! nelly 50 yards with his kicks. J
I Despite his decided prejudices in .
favor of himself, however, "Ches
ty's" former teammates recall he
was exceedingly popular, one year
at Westminster was enough for
jhim, and he then began muking
tho rounds of bigger and. better
sehools before drifting into pro
feuslonal baseball.

Girl's Dream Of

PKPPrcniSLL, Mass., Jan. 28
(AP) A i(i-year-old ghi -whoso day
dreams )md brought her visions of
being a fine titled lady of quality
the sort of dreams girls have
has had thonc dreams conic true.
She had always believed herself
to be humble Lucy Harriett 'Pagge,
daughter of a humble choreniah,
who was so poor after her mother
died he couldn't care for her, und
sent her to her grand-mother's
homo In Boston. There she had
gone to grammar school and last
fall had worked In a factory for a
mouth.
Sunday, though, she came home
to her dad. For many years he
had been Johnny Harry Loe Kagge,
who worked at odd jobs about
town, mowing lawns, mending
broken furniture and doing similar
tasks. Word came from Kngland
last week, however, of tho death
of his brother, Sir John Charles
Kagge, of Dover, Baronet, and the
passing of the title and estates to
him. lie asked for his daughter to
sharo his new fortunes.
In his modest home here, Sir
John told Lucy of her ancestry,
describing to her the Faggo crest
and distinguished forbears dating
back to' the Cromwelllan wars,

LEARN OF BLIND
CITY IN TURKEY
Trachoma Pv'avages 6,791
of 7,000 Inhabitants of
Town of Hisnimansour
AD1VAMA.V, Turkey. Jan. 28
(AI) Xow that communications
Imvo been opened .partially In Tur
key's long-Isolated turbulent east
ern provinces, travelers ure bring
ing to the world news of the exist
ence of a hidden und dreadful
village: Adlyaman, tho village of
the blind.
In the dusty, sandy district of
Hisnimansour. not far from the
olty of Malatla, lies this village of
whoso 7,000 inhabitants C.701 are
wholly or partially sightless
through the ravages of Trachoma.
It is a villago without sound
except for tho tup, tup of hundreds
of canes on cobbled roads as the
population gropes its way through
a ghostly life from blind childhood
to blind old age and death. Through
Adlyman's squalid dung-thatched
hum and dust-polluted alleys,
squalid dusty human beings crawl
like anlmuls without eyes. '
Utterly IHMfgnrdcil
Utterly disregarded by tho old
reglmo of the Sultans, the village
has for centuries been without a
school or hospital, AVithout solace
or help its peosant population,
stricken generation after genera
tion by Trachoma, has made its
living painfully and half blindly
through farming and herding.
Tho village Is utterly unllghtod
at night for there are only a hand
ful of v II acers who could see by
any light. Kipling's City of Dread
ful Night becomes a reality in this
Anatolian town where night and
day are of the sume dire black-,
ness.
Adlyaman Is probably the only
placo in Anatolia where Moslem
women wear no veils. For the
woman of Adlyaman, religious as
they are, no veils are necessary
beyond the veil of unlversarbllnd
ness which hides a woman even
from her father and husband und
child In Ibis sightless village.
