The most famous porcelain maker of the past 200 years is a French factory called Edme Samson et Cie. The Paris firm reproduced ceramics and figurines by other firms from the early 19th century, such as Chelsea, Meissen, Chinese and Worchester. They made pieces as replacements for sets of dishes by other factories. They also copied anything that would sell. Pieces were marked with the letter or a pseudo Chinese mark.

Some pieces are unmarked, although the factory claims to have marked each piece. The copies by Samson have become so desirable that often the Samson vase sells for more than the original. A few collectors only want the Samson copies. The copies can be recognized in several ways. The original Dr.

Wall period Worcester looks dark purple under a black light, whereas Samson copies often glow green Samson copies of Chinese export porcelain usually have raised white decorations. This feature never can be found on true export wares. Copies of Meissen and other European figurines often have coloring different from the SAGE Mrs. Dean Richwine originals. It takes some study, but the fakes usually can be detected.

Gay Gaer Luce and her associates, they moved through hours of exercises in deep relaxation, deep breathing, yoga postures, stretches, bends, turns, twists, and free form dances which would leave most people half their age exhausted. They revelled in their physical proficiency, and boasted of their supple, limber bodies. They told me of the ways big and little in which their lives had been changed in the past year. Some had overcome long-term symptoms such as migraine, high blood pressure and depression. Others had emerged from lifelong shyness to an ability to participate in groups and even I lead.

Using many techniques such as bio-feedback, relaxation and breathing, massage, elements from recent advances in psychotherapy such as gestalt and bioenergetics, and a variety of meditation and spiritual exercises drawn from Western and Eastern traditions, they learned that their bodies were not ugly and that their minds were clear and growing. Gradually, new life attitudes emerged in which they rid themselves of symptoms, de-conditioned their minds and bodies from negative emotional habits, controlled their reactions to stress and despair and responded creatively to challenge. They told me of ways that they had learned to deal with insomnia: deep breathing, relaxation and meditation. They said they had learned playful, invigorating vitality exercises and told of how much they ap preciated massage classes and how they had learned to have more honest, open relationships and expressions of emotion with each other and with their families. Most importantly, they spoke of new growth and interests.

"I have never been more alive in my said a septuagenarian. "And I look on death as another stage in the Whereas only a year before many group members were in that slough of despond and negativism which overtakes so many of America's elderly, now most of them were involved in hobbies, teaching, community projects, and even political activities. One of the most exciting developments of the SAGE program is that the newfound fullness in these people's lives has begun to spill over. They are beginning to train others, working individually and with the SAGE staff to set up similar programs in senior citizen residences and nursing homes. What makes the program So easy to transmit but so difficult to "sell" to funding organizations is that it depends not so much on techniques but on an attitude in which the elderly person is always worked with simultaneously on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels.

Thus, a spectrum of growth opportunities are presented. Curiously, these inclusive methods are ones which tribal and ancient societies have always offered to older people so that the final years of their life can be ones devoted to the deepest self realization. In our culture these methods are almost exclusively the province of the young. (For further information on SAGE, readers can write to 2455 Hilgard Avenue, Berkeley, Calif. 94709).

Criterion music box looks much like the famous Regina. It plays a perforated metal disk. Can you tell me anything about its history? A. Frederick G. Otto of Jersey City, N.J., started a factory in 1875 that made electrical batteries and surgical instruments.
