October 2 is an anniversary sacred to all Hol landers—calling on help from the se!e -move the Spamaids novo Leyden. Leyden is one of the most beau tiful cities of the Netherlands. Tlii' Spanish began their seige of the cify in October, of 1373. The resistance of the inhabitants was spurred by the tyranny of, the Spanish, which had become well known all over Europe. These in habitants held out until their food was practically .exhausted and then, on August 3, 1574, dikes were broken down in lti places and the gates at Schiedam and Rotterdam were opened. The sea came through and flow ed over the land. Although the Spanish commander became alarmed, his advisers told him hi had nothing to fear. But the wa ters continued to rise and, on Sep tember 1, a few shallow-draft vessels and 800 Netherlands sail | ors began to sail toward the be sieged city. Finally, with favorable winds, the small fleet reached Leyden driving away the Spaniards. On the very next day, a furious northeast wind rolled the ocean ■ back to its hod and the dikes wen repaired before the wind chang ' ed. As a reward for its gallant 1 stand, King Phillip issued a char Did Much Carving: In the Olden Days Di .Samuel N Cramer, curator of the Tablet Collection of the University of Pennsylvania mu scum, recently discovered that the 1 n-rdton law* t 1 back to 2500 B. C.—which is at le~-t a century earlier than here tofore believed. Dr. Cramer made his discovery by translating a clay tablet found in btr.nbu! Dr. Cramers discovery is trie fourth time since the turn of the ; century that scholars have turn j ed back the beginning of the his tory of written law. The interest 1 ing part of the discovery is that i it establishes the fact there were written laws 1.700 years before the time of Christ, violators of wheih were fined certain fixed sums of money. The translation of three of the laws showed these fines: 1. "If a man with ... an instru ment his foot has cut off, ten sil ver shekels, he shall pay." 2. "If a man to a man with a weapon his bones of . severed, one silver mina (00 shekels), he shall pay." 2. "If a man to a man with a geshpu instrument the nose has cut off, two-thirds of a silver ter for the University of Leyden October 2 is still celebrated by Hollanders, and by many Duteh Americans in the United States, many of whom are deseendents of l the Dutch who defended the city I if Leyden n ■■ tnina, he shall pay.’’ Laws have greatly advanced' since that, day and tend to bring punishment in line with the na ture of the crime. No longer does it cost only ten shekels if one cuts oft a foot. Nor is the severing of anothers nose taken quite so light ly. And, judging from the number of laws dealing with amputation, it that the Siiinrnant^hii lived in what is now Iraq, had a bit ot trouble with knife wielding, and that eivilua tion s advancing despite what some people say About one-third of a million farmers in 800 counties are cover ed under Federal Crop Insurance.
