1t seems just bit strange and
awkward that as we grow older rs
people we cannot get away from this
western idea, this stigmatizing a
portion of our country because il Is
accomplishing with certain enter
prising methods what could not pos
sibly be accomplished by any other.
It cannot be that we are jealous IN
the cost, because we attach 80 much
Importance to the west. IL cannot
be that we are ashamed Of the west,
because we like to speak with pride
Of It, Its people cannot differ so
very much from rs, since half of the
American west is really made up Of
eastern folks. But yet we 60 ON and
ON, and everything in the west that
is not to our taste Is 1.-THE western
idea of things" Surfeited with SEQ
tionalism, we are full of the notion
that one part of our country is supo-
rior to another. We have still to
learn and imbibe the idea that Amer
ica Is America whether it DO New
York, Boston. Chicago. Denver or
San Francisco.
We have TO learn IN this country
to accept n man as an American
whether he lives in Chicago or in
Portland, in New York or In Taco

such been the casei If not, why

rightfully should have donei
Somebody has been benefited,
who is that somebody 1t is
too clear for argument that if
the people are not more pros
porous, if they do not now have
more time for self-improvement
and social intercourse and
pleasure, something must be
radically wrong somewhere.

people should seriously con-
slider. We must have a change.
