1 Think It Over 'Things Passed a Hundred Times' By THE REV. MILTON H. KEENE "For, don't you mark? we're made so that we love First when we see them painted, things we have passed Perhaps a hundred times nor cared to see This is Fra Lippo Lippi talking in Browning's poem talking about the sheer wonder of ordinary things which we appreciate only when someone has "caught" them for us and spread them out in bright colors on pale canvas. Things we've passed a hundred times nor cared to see Wind moving through a field of wheat or barley on a summer day. Ripples playing on the surface of a pond.

The V-shaped wake of a wild duck paddling his way through the water beyond the cattails. The sun slipping down behind the trees like a great orange balloon at the end of a hot day. Dew on the morning grass droplets of red, orange, emerald and purple. SHADOWS frolicking on a sidewalk beneath a maple tree. Green moss at the foot of an oak, looking ever so much like an 1 aerial view of a jungle as you bend down over it.

The bright eyes of a child, wide with expectancy. The reflection of trees and sky in a lake (making you wonder where heaven ends and earth begins!) A gull in flight above the breaking waves. The intricate, restful, wonder of an ancient root or chunk of driftwood. THESE were the sort of things Browning was thinking of as he talked through the lips of the medieval artist, Fra Lippo Lippi. We live in a world of unspeakable beauty scenes which we pass by a hundred times and take for common place.

We really "see" them, it seems, only whan an artist or nowadays a photographer with an eye for their loveliness captures them for us. The eye of the arist is not a gift presented to one and denied the rest of us. We all have something of it from our childhood before the bright colors of life were sooted over by too much concern for "deals" and promotions and the like. It can still be our's if we have the maturity to becone as children. KKK-Penn Case Nears Completion ATHENS, Ga.

(UPI) Federal prosecutor Floyd Buford said he may wind up his case against three Ku Klux Klansmen charged with the nightrider terrorism of Negroes. Buford was expected to call his final witnesses this afternoon, but if there was some delay, he would certainly conclude his case tomorrow. The klansmen are charged with conspiring to violate the civil rights of Negroes, specifically Washington, D.C., educator Lemuel Penn, who was shot to death by nightriders on a North Georgia highway in 1964. Buford indicated some aspects of the trial may be essentially a re-enactment of the 1964 state murder trial of two of the defendants-Joseph Howard Sims and Cecil Myers. They were acquitted of the slaying of Penn.

Buford, prosecuting under an 1870 civil rights law, has attempted to prove that Sims, 43, Myers, and George Turner, 34, "actually participated" in the murder of Penn. Scheduled to be tried later on the same charges are klans-: men Denver Willis Phillips, Herbert Guest and James S. Lackey.
