PSYCHOLOGY Of CRAZtS
WHY WHOLE COMMUNITIES GO
"DAFFY."
1t is the Result of Social Excitement
Under Which the Normal Individual
Becomes Initiative.

Prof. G. T. w. Patrick in the Popular
Science Monthly offers an interesting
explanation of the reasons why certain
forms of epidemicS and craZeS sweep
over the country. The craze, he points
out is the result of social excitement
under which the normal individual be-
comes initiative, while something
takes place in his brain akin
to hypnotism, the higher faculties being
inactive and the mind resembling that
of the primitive man or the child. His
reasoning and deliberatiVe faculties are
dormant and he acts with a desire to
immediate rather than remote ends He
Graves action and excitement and is
prone to disregard the consequences.
Professor Patrick characterizes an out
break of the war spirit as homicidal
craze of this kind and mentions the
tulip mania in Holland and the Dewey
welcome in New York as other exam
pies.
There is something in this, and the
development of a craze is not often to
be regarded by it's promoters with any
pride. 1t is suggestive that whereas
no normal individual of high character
would be likely to boast of a satisfied
revenge, all London-a multitude con-
tanning many such Northumberland
wild with joy at the news that "Majuba
is avenged" Presumably the late la
mentable experience of Lieutenant Hob-
son was due to some such manifesto
ton of the social mind" Yet the fact
is that without these craZes this prob
ably would be a very unprogressive and
monotonous old world. The "homicidal
craze" makes history and sometimes,
perhaps, progress; the tulip craze open
ed up new territory; and without a
quadriennial political craze there could
be neither elections nor nominations, for
convention in full operation is a YER
liable craze center.
1t is the men who are affected by
crazes, who get up rough rider regi-
ments or relief expeditions or political
booms, who carry the world along.
When the mental epidemic has worthy
inspiration the result is good; when 1t
hasn't the consequences are both sad
and humiliating. But crazes of one sort
or another seem to be necessary for
the continuance of society.
All of which is but another way of
pointing the same moral that George
AIDE has in 1.-The Fable in Slang of the
Fool Killer Who Backed Out of Job,
namely, IF people are inclined to be
luny, it is safer to go in crowds"
