The Olympic Idea and its early international hopes
W M Sloane traces the birth of the Olympic idea from de Coubertin’s early life work to the 1894 Sorbonne meeting that formed the International Olympic Committee. He notes Athens as a symbolic sponsor of peace through sport, debates over hosting rotation, and forecasts future sites and the Panama Games as non Olympic events needing careful naming.

Devotion of Cosima Wagner and Her Silent Labor
For 30 years Cosima Wagner has dedicated her life to preserving Richard Wagner’s memory through Bayreuth festival performances. After this season the work’s exclusive glory may pass to the world, as only Munich’s Pring Regenten theater will present the work when copyright expires in 1918. Madame Wagner has never appeared in festival programs, refused interviews, and prohibited her photograph, choosing to honor her husband’s memory rather than seek personal recognition. Her devoted effort is described as the supreme act of wifely love.
