SURELY WINS THE PALM.
One Mean Man Who Outdoes Some
Others.

Many stories have been told of
mean men, such as he who used a
wart for collar-button and he whose
birthday gift to his son consisted in
washing the windows so that the
lad might watch the cars go by.
This man, however, seems to have
won the palm:
There was an extremely mean man
In New Hampshire, who was the pro-
prietor of hotel. By his direction
rules were posted in the hostelry for
bidding almost every conceivable priv
ilege to those not guests Of the place.
There was absolutely no chance for
the casual loafer to get newspapers.
pen, ink, stationery, etc. There were
not even free seats in the Office.
One day, relates the Success Maya
zine, he CHANGED to observe a chronic
loafer gazing at the old clock that
hung on the wall. The next day a
sign was placed over the clock. 1t
read: This clock is for the use of
the guests of the hotel only"

Prof Felix Adler in his address he.
tore the National Child Labor Con-
vention at Cincinnati on THE Att
tude OF Society Towards the Child as
an Index of Civilization" pointed out
that, historically, there have been
three views Of the child in society
There is the primitive view which
regarded the child as the essential
FACTOR In the system of ancestor wor-
snip; the later view, which made him
the fnheritor and continuator of the
dam1iy honors and prerogatives; and
the modern view, which looks upon
the child as so much living material
Tor the society of the future. The
classification serves as a basis for the
protest against the wastage of child
lie under the present system Of pro-
duction. Essentially, however. the
three historical views are identical in
that they agree in looking upon the
child as bearing within himself the
seed or the ideal future, whether that
edeal be to live in extra-terrestrial
bl1ss and in the memory of man. or
the feudal ideal Of family. or the
contemporary altruistic ideal of the
perfect state. And it is by no means
certain that the last ideal is not the
hardest on the child. 1t Is not only
that some OF us, in the name of prog
ress, are content to send the child
into that industrial slavery against

ing on their tender shoulders a heavy
burden of responsibility If we were
-worshippers or medieval
parons, we should be quite content to
leave our children in undisturbed en-
Joyment of their right to liberty and
the pursuit of happiness; since in
merely being they would fulfill their
purpose. But the modern child must
not be left alone, because there is no
such thing as a child in the same
sense that there is a cat or a ponv
or picture book. He is potential
ity; and there are pedagogical prin-
ciples.
