increased speed enable man to achieve
more In a given space Of time 1t should
also enable him to have more leisure
for the enjoyment of that which he mas
achieved II It mean more wealth 1t
sJaou.d mean more rightful use Of wealth.
If II mean more work It should also mean
cnope play.
Tais is the true philosophy of speed.
We are not to be constantly on the
1ylldrl. The business man of today has
made more money at thirty-iive than his
father had at seventy. But he should not
keep on at the money making until ne
too, is seventy, for If he do, what better
is ne than his father was? The work.
ingman of today, with improved appli-
ances. can do as much in five hours as
his father did in ten. But he should not
he compelled to toll ten hours day.
too for IL he do,what will speed profit
him? Our latter-day speed should mean
to the laborer fewer hours of toll, and
more rest. recreation, and enjoyment OF
the higher things of life 1t should mean
tn t1e man OF affairs more years OF
leisure for in iectual and spiritual cul-
tire and for adva- cement in those ele-
ments of life which are not measured by
dollars and cents. 1t should mean prog
ress in the arts, and in that higher cul-
ture which can come only from sordid
Dccmpulsion. 1t should. perhaps, bring a
leisure class into society-by which is not
meant an idle or a worthless class-and
IL should certainly bring to all classes
far more leisure time-which does not
mean idie or wasted time. There is
something better than being constantly
anxious and busy with material affairs,
and that better thing is what this age
of speed should bring to us, one and all.

AN HISTORIC LANpAIARK.

1t is now announced that Fort Nacki-
nae, On Mackinac Island, Mich, has been
totally abandoned. The Stars and Stripes,
which for more than one hundred years
have fioated over the forts historic walls,
have been hau.ed down, and the fort and
park are now under the supervision OF
the state to which they have been trans
ferred by the national government
1t Is doubtful II there is another pace
in the United States richer in romance,
In historical associations, and in the
memories which inspire not only the pa
trlot, but the poet and painter, than Is
this spot, past which there now 80 the
sails of trade and commerce. More than
two hundred years ago, in the days OF
Safe and Cartier knew IT,, as they piled
their paddles on treacherous waters or
blazed out a path for future generations
to follow. The song of the Aght-hearted,
but brave and adventurous courier des
bols, was heard there; the war cry OF
the red Indian pierced its silence and
the soldiers OF England were seen there,
when they strove to make of no effect
the independence we had won.
We are apt sometimes, dazzled as we
are by the glamor OF this practical and
money-making age, to think that al! ro-
nance belongs to the old world, with the
centuries OF gradua; progression, of which
it can boast. This Is not so. Were we
only to look for it we would find in our
own land as much to stir the heart and
wake the emotions in some lonely field,
or mountain lake, or grassy valley, as
lies underneath the dome of stately min
ster, or in the palaces of kings, or the
pictured halls of knight and earl. There
Is hardly a state which does not have
some place that has its romance Of love
and war; Its association with events that
helped to make up our history as a peo-
pie and thoughtful men often sigh to
think by how few such spots are remem-
bered and how they are fast crumb.ing
into forgetfu.ness

| Public bodies In Astoria, after being
elected by the people to whatever offices
chance wave of public opinion happens
