Cesar Franck 's symphonic poem ' Les Eolides' was composed in 1876. The music is based on some lines by Leconte de Lisle, of which the following is a free translation: '0 breezes drifting in the skies, sweet breath of lovely spring, who with playful kisses caress the hills and plains : 0 virgin daughters of Aeolus, lovers of peace, nature wakens at your songs.'

Mill-owner, philanthropist, and social reformer, Robert Owen was one of the most remarkable figures of the early nineteenth century. Born in Montgomeryshire in 1771, he became manager of a cotton mill at the age of nineteen. Within ten years he became part owner of the important mills at New Lanark and it was contact with the demoralised drudges who worked in his own mills that set him on the path of social reform.
That path led him to the founding of infant schools (of which he was the pioneer in Great Britain), of the co-operative system, and of the labour-exchange system-if not of actual ' socialism '. At any rate the word ' socialism ' first got into currency through the ' Association of All Classes of All Nations ' founded by Owen in 1835. (Northern)
