afIront to common humanity.

American life and business organl-

and history accumulate and wealth
becomes more widely distributed. we
are bound as a national Characteristic
to return to normal poise and to take
existence easier. Within the past de-
cade there has been an obvious tend
ency toward simpler and consequently
better living. There has been no de-
monstrations of freakishness in this
movement. As a general thing there
is a disposition among the more affiu-

morbid excesses in business and do
nestle affairs that is natural and will
inevitably lead to a simpler plan Of
existence, concludes the Louisville
