THE LIFE HEROIC.

Mr.. Goodwin Smith takes issue with
Mr.. Theodore Roosevelt because of
the latters advocation of the siren
Gus life. But Mr.. Smiths article, though
excellent, is hardly necessary. The adj
jective strenuous is out of fashion.
The presidents approval gave it "a
certain vogue for few months. per-
haps. but his best efforts could not
continue 1t in popularity for more than
year. For the "up-and- doing every
minute" life does not appeal to those
workers who seek for accomplish
ment. Accomplishment takes time and
leisure. They know that a series of
spectacular gymnastics will not avail
The best effort of the world could not
be represented by a heroic statue in
bronze showing a rough rider mounted
on a rearing steed. Not only do those
who only stand and wait, serve They
do more than that. They accomplish.
Mr.. Smith is quoted as saying:
Some men have been detailed by ma
ture as rough riders. Let us acknowI-
edge their services and pay them the
honor due. But the mass Of us are des-
tined to life not strenuous but de-
voted to the quiet earning Of our bread
and the performance of our social du-
ties" And in spite of Mr.. Roosevelt
the mass will accompany its destiny
The adjective. strenuous, does not sug-
gest quiet, and persistent endeavor. It
suggests instead. the blowing of horns
Again Mr.. Smith: After all, in the
history of r, civilization, :. have not the
greatest effects been produced by men
whom President Roosevelt. had he
come across them personally, might
have been apt to class among the
weaklings, and deem unworthy Of his
notice." To find an affirmative answer
to his question Mr.. Smith need only
look about him little. Not the siren.
uous Mr.. Jerome, but the quiet and
rather retiring Mr.. Low is credited
with bringing 49, about, New Yorks
alleged regeneration. And it was
not the, Summing :, amillionaires and
the reform party chiefs who clean
ed out the tenement districts of New
York, but the plodding Mr.. Riis, who,
when he was doing his most effective
work, was unknown to the majority of
the people he was helping. And nu-
merous other examples might be sight
ed without dipping into ancient his
tory.
But, as we have said before, it is
hardly necessary to decry the strenu-
Gus life today. The people are not fol-
lowing It, If the majority of the citi-
zens Of the United States were fitting
at windmills or riding at break-neck
speed over the land avowing their prin-
ciples and their purposes with all the
strength of their lungs. there would be
some necessity for preaching the evils
of the life heroic, but since most of
them are to be found in their homes
doing. to the best of their ability, those
tasks which lie nearest their hand, the
entire subject may safely be dropped
just as the adjective itself has been
dropped.

AN OMAR FOR EVERYBODY.

When Fitzgerald gave to the English
reading world the immortal quatrafns
of Omar he little thought, doubtless.
that he was providing a space filler for
magazines and newspapers for years
to come. 1t Is probable, indeed, could
be flooded with allssorts and conditions
of Omars that he would have permitted
the Tentmaker's Rubaiyat to remain
unknown. Today when the penny
liner fails of an idea, he writes an
Omar. 1t may be an Omar for a Mid
dle-Aged Lady, it may be an Omar for
Rainy Day. or It may be an Omar for
Poodle. It does not matter much for
whom 1t is intended soefong as it paro-
dies the MOST popular lines of the
Fitzgerald translation. The baseball
umpire Is the very latest to have an
Omar of his own, but no one dare
prophesy that he will be the last.

omared. if we may coin the term, and
so long as the magazines and the news

reason why everybody should not be
