Memnon met in combat and killed the great Greek warrior, Antilochus, the close friend of Achilles, and was then in deadly combat with Ajax the Greater, second most famous Greek, when Achilles came to the aid of Ajax. No aid came to Memnon, and Achilles killed him. fn Thebes and Susa they considered Memnon to be immortal, and called him Son of the Dawn. As time passed after his death he grew steadily bigger in retrospect. Many Greek buildings besides those mentioned, and many famous plays were named after him. The post-Homeric works of two famous authors, Arctinua and Lesches, gave the detailed story of his life and death, and both made him a great personage and a mighty hero.

After his death men proceeded to build a thousand legends concerning the greatness of Memnon. His name was placed on numerous famous structures, such as the gates of Thebes, and on several tremendous statues located at Thebes and Susa. One of these monuments-all of them named after Memnon-was so built that when the first rays of the rising sun in the morning touched its top, music resembling that of a great harp came forth from the monument top. Later this monument was damaged by an earthquake, and when they repaired it, the music stopped. Two great statues by Memnon still stand near Thebes, statues of Amenophis. He also built the royal citadel of Susa, called the Memnonion.

So, having told most "ri"n"a in"rr" read concerning two

Ethiopian kings, Memnon and Haile Selassie, I shall bring this story to a close. But I submit that they are both interesting characters. Especially do I recommend and praise the draft call of the little King of today. Someone has wisely said with regard to scribblers, "before writing, consider the beauty of white paper." Haile Selassie saves both paper and words.
