ONE MAN’S FIFTY MOST
PRIZED POSSESSIONS '
6(f) U? of the fifty possessions
that I listed as my most val-
ued enes1 found that forty-eight of
them had not coat me a dime !”
It war Channlng Pollock the
aoted playwright who said Unit
And hit disparagement of material
things la ne cane of sour grapes for
the author of the above statement
la a wealthy man who admits to “a
bouse and an attic full of material
things that cost money and the sac-
rifice of leisure and Independence"
“Once" he says “I owned a yacht
It taught me the futility of owning
things And nowadays among my
fifty valued possessions I don’t even
Include my canoe but only my seat
far that stirring challenge of a head
uriiil Md scudding clouds aud a
choppy sea which can be mine on
u tramp fMghter or a ferry boat or
be my neighbor’ dory !"
It la that seat be says “apprecia-
tion seat that gives me a property
I wouldn't sell for millions"
And If we could only Impress It
on the women who long for mate-
rial things who are discontented
because they do not have this or
that which their friend or neighbor
has to whom the husband Is a fail-
ure who cannot give them those
thloga— If we could only Impress It
upon thoee women that therein lies
the real wealth of the world— in our
own appreciation and zest -for the
joys that money cannot buy
Having seat for living one pleas-
ure after another la opened up- to
ua We need no material stimulus
jAad possessing all the material
things In the world cannot give ns
that test would moat probably dull
that seat for there is nothing so
certain to pall as the pleasure we
’get from things
