BABY OR PICTURE?
GREAT QUESTION
PUZZLES LONDON
LONDON, Oct. 7. —If you were in a
I burning house in which were a help
less baby and the most valuable picture
in the world. Raphael's "Dresden Ma
donna.” which would you save? This
is the question discussed in T ie Lon
don Daily Express, as the re - lit of a
letter written to The London Times by
Sir George Birwood. on the subject of
the sacrifice of the Temple of Philae
to make room for the Assouan Dam in
Egypt.
He quotes Sir Henry Knolls as draw
ing a comparison of the picture and
child and saying:
"1 should certainly save the Madonna
first. She ean get another baby, hut
there is only one Dresden Madonna.”
The Express prints the opinions of
many prominent persons, all in absolute
disagreement of this view. H. De Vere
Stacpoole says:
“If the fire were in a criminal lunatic
asylum of which I was a patient, the
Madonna would stand a chance, other
wise the baby first.”
Arthur Bourchier, John Collier, Max
Pemberton and Sir Hiram Maxim all
declare that one live baby is worth
more than a million pictures. Elinor
Glyn says:
“It is much too difficult a question
for my small brain to answer. It is
worse than the lady or the tiger.”

COMMISSIONER OF
INSURANCE WARNS
FARMERS ON FIRMS
John Copeland, deputy commissioner of
insurance, has called the attention of the
farmers of Georgia to certain so-culled ;
fire insurance companies seeking, by !
means of circular letters, to write in
surance on cotton gins throughout the
state "at whatever rate the individual
farmers may to be acceptable and
right."
These circiilurs. Mr. Coj eland points
out. are plausibly woriied and a|,: lo d<- J

that al! su< h con.panics seeking business
in that manner ate discredited in i-is

slate as legitimate.
