COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL. THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1924 RAINING THE MEMORY. ought to be a valuable daily •ise for school children to pre- I summaries of the news as it in the papers. The experi- is being tried in Washington and will probably be repeated her cities. Properly conducted, ould produce two desirable con- I'nces. The first and obvious is that boys and girls will form h11bit of attending to what is going on in the world at the age when their minds are plastic and their interest capable of discipline. The second reason is more im portant perhaps. Reading the news under the guidance of their teach ere, the children will learn to dis criminato between the important and the trivial. They will form the habit of passing lightly over the ephemeral and laving up sketches of weighty occurrences as lasting - .... .. "f tin- memory. The or dinar? memory resemble« an old New Eugland garret more than an orderly storeroom. It contains a little of everything without arrange meut and the trivial is retained just as securely as the momentous. Comparatively few people know how to remember. The common idea is that a good meory is one which retains everything. This is a mis take. A good memory is really one that knows how to drop that which is useless. Persons who are said to po&tesH tremendous powers of mem ory seldom retain mere fact« better than others, but they are able to classify and forget what is of no value to them. A weak memory whose contents are well arranged is vastly preferable to a strong one in which there is no discrimination. Men who have a great deal of ac curate work to do are not apt to depend a great «leal upon their memories, for the best are mislead ing and treacherous. seldom PAGE FIVE recollect a quotation exactly as it written by the author. Dates slip a few years out of place in the mind. Events merge together in a confusing way. It is far better to cultivate the habit of using books of reference than to try to make the memory encyclopedic and infal lible.

Maxey It ha» been said that our everyday life 's largely fixed by the sound of bells of one kind or another, but It re mained for Mr. Frank Miller of River side, Cal., who had a hobby of col lecting bells, to assemble the largest collection of bells on earth. Each hell has a history of Interest and romance. Among the noteworthies In this collection of approximately 450 bells are: A bronze bell of graceful lines, dated 1702, which long hung In the tower of the New Orleans cathedral and later, by a peculiar turn of fate, served on the jhll In the same city. A goat bell of pleasing tone, the only one of Its kind, found in the Swiss, Italian or French Alps, thought to be more than one hundred years old. A church bell dated 1770, which, no one knows how long, served the master of a castle In Scotland. A facsimile of ‘'Big Ben,” the largest clock-tower bell In the world, which hangs In the tower of the house of parliament In London. An Iron horse bell from Norway—thought to have been made about 1750. A bronze gong, said to be more than eighteen hundred years old, which came from a temple In China. A bronze bell which belonged to a ship that sailed from Boston in 1755. The ship was wrecked, but. after lying at the bottom of the ocean for almost 100 years, the bell was recovered. The town crier’s bell which awakened the good people of Bedford, Mass., the night on which the patriot, Paul Re vere, made his famous ride. An an cient. acorn-shaped dog bell from China. A gong from Borneo, used In native war dances. \Au old-fashioned Roman bell which was unearthed In the ruins of Herod’s palace at Aeca- lon. An antiquated, cup-shaped bell from Mecca—that sacred city of Ma homet, In Arabia. An ornamented brass Roman cow bell Inscribed, in Latin, “Paul. Third, Most Holy Supreme Pon tiff", Indicating ownership by a pope who died In 1540. A bell, cracked and clnpperless, carrying an Inscription showing the date of manufacture to have been the year 1247, said to be the oldest dated bell known and to have been made or used In Spain. This bell wns in existence 245 years before Columbus discovered America. And last, but by no means the least, the forefather of the bell family, a “clink stone", which, suspended from a rope and struck wtth a mallet, gives off a ringing sound. The "clink stone” was the earliest form of bell known. It was used, It Is thought, as early as GOO B. 0. ((g), 1928, Western Newspaper Union.)

Faunces Tavern at the southeast comer of Broad and Poarl streets tn New York City Is one of the oldest buildings In that great city. Built In 1710 as a residence for a Mr. DeLancey, fate decreed that It should play a prominent part on ao many Important occasions that It has naturally won for Itself a place of prominence among the most dis tinguished landmarks of our time. History records that In 1757 this building was being used as a store room anti warehouse. Later it became the property of a West Indian gentle man who was known as "Black Sain,” from whom Samuel Pounces purchased It In 1762. Three years later It passed to a new owner apd In 1768 the organi zation of the Chamber of Commerce was effected here. Faunces again be came the owner of this much-traded building In 1770 and In it conducted a tavern—a gathering place for those gentleman and ladles who wished to favor him with their company. A shot from a man-of-war struck this building In 1775, following which Faunces Joined the American army. Later he again secured ownership of this hotel and continued In possession of It for a number of years. In 1788 General George Washington was banqneted here by Governor Clin ton of New York state, and In thia same building during the same year General Washington took his leave of his forty-four officers. Faunces sold this building In 1785 and It later passed through a series at ownerships and usages. In 1882 the Interior was damaged by Are. Twenty years later It became known ns the Broad Street House. Subsequently it was visited by a disastrous Are and «till later two stories were added to It The venerable building was once more restored and In 1007 It was dedi cated by the Sons of the Revolutloo. Restored to Its former appearance and Interior arrangement, the present structure Is practically as It was dur ing the Revolutionary period. The first floor 1» »till used as a restaurant, the second containing the celebrated long room where General Washington took leave of bls faithful lieutenants of Revolutionary fame and the third being occupied as a museum contains relies- flags, china, medals, etc., of Revolutionary days. <•, ISIS.
