Them In the Summer Days.
A cat turns around before il lies
down because its jungle ancestors had
to crush the grass to make a bed, and
the instinct still persists. Perhaps man
kind takes TO the woods in summer
for the same reason. The groves were
mans original abode, as we'll as God s
first temples. But while the longing
to get back to nature at this season is
nearly universal the instinct for enjoy
ing the wilderness is much less widely
distributed.
While some persons are exuberantly
happy at getting away from civiliza-
ton, others who fancy that they want
to leave the town behind are made
perfectly miserable by the lack of their
accustomed conveniences. The splash
of the water on the boats sides or the
hum of the reel to sucn persons is no
compensation for the lack of ice, of
comfortable beds and rocking chairs
At the first sign of mosquito they
are overcome with annoyance and sun
burn to them is an evil quite without
recompense.
Your true son of the woods, city-bred
though he may be. counts all the suf-
fering that belongs to life out of doors
as not grievous but joyous. The dis
&C mforts are not 10 be compared in his
opinion TO the delights OF camping and
fishing and hunting. His enthusiasm,
indeed, is inexplicable 10 the man who
has not fallen under the same spell.
There is no telling the lover of the
woods from the town devotee by his
appearance. The book-looking fellow
may be a mighty fisherman, while the
athlete may be miserable out of reach
of a car line. Perhaps the difference
in temperament Nnay be traced back
to childhood. A person may be made
also anything if he is caught young
enough The psychologists have a the
DRY that all kinds of instincts manifest
themselves for a time in the growing
child and, then disappear unless spe-
cial attention is given to their develop
meEt.
This may account in part for the
diversity of feeling toward nature that
exists so unaccountably among men
ard women of otherwise congenial
tastes Unless a person fshed with a
bent pin as a child he isn't likely to
become enthusiastic over the sport as
man. The woods may lure. but they
aren't likely to captivate unless the
devotee early learned their ways. The
taste for outdoor life may be culti-
waited to some degree, but unless it
was developed in youth it is not apt to
prove robust-Kansas City Star.

them were based on his belief that the
Democratic national ticket would be
badly defeated. BY keeping out Of the
East he is freed from ay responsibility
for the outcome and it cannot be
claimed that his utterances in the
West were the cause of the landslide

The great advantage Bryan reaps
is that his supporters everywhere are
relieved from the Odium OF being

His stand is likely TO be extremely
radical on all Of what he calls the
economic questions The tendency Of
his utterances is expected to be
toward the socialism which Is max
ing Roadway IN the cities rather than
to the populism which formerly was
the source of his strength in the
farming communities.
