Crowd Has Personality ~ but Little Individuality oAt woulg have been more to the purpose if the eritics bad insisted upon Walt Whitian’s position as the poet of personality, rather than of indlviduality. These terms are commonly confused in the minds of most people, and even held to be interchangeable. In reality a maximum of individuality implies a minimum of personality and vice versa. The individual, as such, is necessarily isolated and therefore devold of personal ability to share in the lives and fortunes of others; the truly strong personality is he who {s able most fully to share and understand the nature of those with whom he is In contact, and who correspondingly subordinates his Individuality to thelrs. And the same is true of crowds, as of individuals. A crowd has personality; it has little or no individuality. It is a fact that ¢rowds in - different countries reveal Individual differences: thus an English crowd Is less excltable, restless, noisy, than an Amerlean crowd:; and a Chinese crowd may be even more reserved, for aught I know ; yet, despite these accidents, each crowd expresses certain fundamental reactlons, possesses certaln elementary desires common to all humanity. Each crowd is at bottom a vast reservoir of: blind desire, vague faith, dumb suffering; each crowd is composed of units that breathe, hope, dle; each crowd is uncoordinated personality in conflict with individual differentiation; each crowd Is at once Everyman: and Noman.—John Gould Fletcher in the North American Review.

Proof Mark Placed on , Weapons Made in Europe Spanish and German firearms usually have, instead of the maker's name, a seal, frequently of gold, depicting characters—animals and letters—from which, if possessed of a list of such seals, one might determine the ‘manufacture of the weapon, and hence its approximate date. English and French gunmakers, however, if marking the arm at all, did so by placing their name and that of their town on the lock-plate or barrel or on both. ‘The marks known as “proof marks” were stamped on, usually by a government official, after he had tried out and “proven” the arm to be all right. As a rule the method of “proving” was to load the pilece with several times its normal aniount of powder and shot, and then discharge the same. If it survived the test it was considered “proven” satisfactorily. : - Thus, as different marks were not adopted until a certain’ date, one may ordinarily be assured that an arm bearing thern was not manufactured before that date.—Detroit News.

. Glass-Silk Fiber = Venus’ basket is a glass-silk sponge which grows in the tropical seas of the Pacific, from the Fujiyama region to the Indian ocean. By the Japanese it is called the mineral silk sponge, and is used for its ﬁper, which is woven into chemiecal fiber cloths, into fireproof candlesticks and into delicate fireproof curtains. _ : In its natural state the glass sponge is covered with these long silky fibers -which are used in the arts referred to.' A smpall tuft of these fibers covers the base. - The specimens are raked up from the ocean bed, and the framework, which cannot be separated into fiber for weaving, is employed in the covering of steampipes and in coldstorage insulation, where it has been found equal to asbestos.. Certain specimens are said to measure fully forty inches in length and three to four inches in diameter, : . 3 . Impossible: F§° “So that’s the baby, eh?” e “That’s the baby.” “Well, I hope you will bring it up to be a consclentious, God-fearing man."” . ‘ - “I'm afrald that will be rather difficalt” “Pshaw! As the twig is bent the tree is inclined.” v *“I know,* but this twig is bent on being a girl.” - _ The Retort Courteous Two high school girls were engaged in conversation on the street. Said the first: - “Tom tried to kiss me last night and I wouldn’t let him."” * “Did it make him angry?’ her companion asked. “1 should say.

Same Manner for Both The wealthy uncle was talking over the prospects of his nephew with the lad’s mother. _ : “How is he doing with his studies?” “Oh, very well. He shows a great talent for music, and his manner is very haughty. His teacher thinks he will become a conductor.” “Ah! Indeed!” responded uncle. “Orchestra or street car?’—>Stray Stories. : v Appropriate Remedy Not long ago a woman -called on a physician who is noted both for his efficiency and his dluntness. This woman’s baby was indisposed and this doetor ordered castor oil. S “But, doctor,” protested the womas, “castor ofl is such an old-fashioned remedy !” “Babies also are old-fashioned, madam,” snorted the doctor, ' “Six Days’ is a thrilling romance of two continents starring Corinne Griffith at Crystal Sunday and. Monday. The Misses Faye and Beulah Hite of Detroit Michigan arrived Wednesday to visit Mr. and Mrs. John T. Baker and other relatives.
