DakOta'S immensely

Sir Thomas Upton at a dinner in
Chicago praised Americas bigness,
Il once heard" he said, "a Dakotan
talk about the big farms they have
out there"
"We have some stable FARMS" he
said thoughtfully. eyes sir, pretty
stable. I've seen a man IN one of
our big farms start out in the spring
and pillow a straight furrow till fall.
Then he turned around and harvested
back" "Wonderful," said 1.
"On our Dakota FARMS" he went
on, "it's the usual thing to send
young married couples out to milk
the cows. Their children bring home
the milk" "Wonderful," l repeated.
>"Once," he said, 81 saw a Dakota
farmers family Frustrated with grief.
The women were weeping, the dogs
were barking, the children were
squalling and the tears streamed
down the mans face as he got into
his twenty mule team and drove off,
"Where was he going?" said l.
"He was going half across the farm
to feed the pigs said the Dakotan.
"Did he ever get back?" l asked.
SIT amt time for him yet," was
the reply.

I'VE should not be misunderstood to
interfere with the release to normal
life of a few feeble-minded who can
be trained until they are practically
normal.
I'VE cannot but agree with the many
people that believe it wise to separate
all degenerates from society and to
keep them classified in groups in such
way that they should do as little
harm to themselves or to their fellows
as possible, and that the next genera
tion should not be burdened.
1.-THE most celebrated authorities on
the care and segregation of the feeble
minded and other detectives are much
in favor of the colonization of all de-
fectives where the development of its
members could properly be classified.
Every one should work and play who
could, and those who could do neither
to be cared for by their happier BROTH
ers.
This seems to be a utopian scheme
but we dwell a little upon it here be-

TRENTON, N. J., March 2.-The seq

growth of that part of the population
that is mentally weak, morally ire

In her report Mrs. Williamson says:

class of detectives of hereditary degen-

ANCIENT SUPERSTITION AFFECTS
MORE THAN A HUNDRED MEN

passing under it. A carload of cement
was unloaded in front of the building
and the workmen began the work of
taking 1t inside.
Fred Schultz, the man who shoul-
dered the first sack, has a wholesome
fear grounded, he says, on experience,
of the superstition regarding the pass
ing under ladder. He put down his
sack and, clearing away some lumber,
passed around it, detour Of fifteen
feet. The next man followed him and
the next. Several tempted fate by
passing under, but the clearing of the
debris had made the circuit easier and
1t became the beaten path.
Usually the fear of i'll luck associated
with passing under ladder comes with
a remembrance of q hodful of bricks
dropped by man above, but the work.
men seemed to require no such re-
membrance. Day after day they passed
in and out, carrying their burdens, and
always the route lay around the ladder.
Several seized it to move it, but it
was nailed down and then again it
was used occasionally. So there was
, nothing to do but to be on the safe
side and make the trip around. Ali
day long materials were carried into
the building and the sum total to the
credit Of the worn out" superstition
grew.
| Yesterday, as the men were winding
in and out along the circutous path
the foreman, supposedly more emanci-
pated than the rest, entered the build
ing. He thought no one was looking
and after hesitating, walked arounc
the ladder There was no use taking
chances and it was only a step around
Toward quitting time man, appar.
emily the contractor, prosperous and
expansive, passed through the front
entrance, walking briskly and swing
| ing his stick. The ladder stood men,
acingly over him. He thought no one
saw him and why should he take any
risk? He followed the path made by
Fred Schultz with his bag Of cement.
Thus does the dead past lay it's hand
on the life of today.
