true OF tho United States but Of ali

may say Of the entire world. The
reason may, | think. be found In the
strenuous life Of the present day and
the intensity of competition In all
walks Of life. The business man seeks
recreation, not In the philosophic re-
nections or noble ideals of the poet,
that gives nim food for subsequent
thought and rejection. but In tempo
rary diversion and distraction from
the serious problems of life. Hence
