1t is time for the west to realize that it
is grown up, and to submit its work to
the judgment of mankind on its merits.
Yet there is another side even to this ques-
tion. The east, too, must understand that
the west has attained it's majority, and
recognize it-even over it's own protest IL
need be-as an equal partner in the great
commonwealth of American states. West
ern literature, IL it is good at all, must
be good as literature, and not as western
literature No concessions on the score of
our supposed youthfulness ought to be
asked or granted. For the west is old. and
not at all a child. The spirit which too
often prevails in both sections is very like
that so often manifested by the women
who talk of 'woman's work." and insist
that 1t be appraised, not as work, but as
womans work 1 am persuaded that we
have here a very fruitful cause of misun-
derstanding. The west poses as a Smart

plauds border dramas or ''Wolfville"
stories, not simply because they are or may
be good, but chiefly because 1t is believed
that they accurately reflect western life.
have rather assumed the existence in
the east OF an ignorance of the west, but
as that is practically my theme could
hardly do anything else. This ignorance
will become more formidable and danger
GUS every year, because the subject in re-
gard to which 1t manifests itself is every
day growing larger, and more important
Fifty years ago one could have afforded
to know little or nothing of the west
But to know nothing of it now is to know
nothing of the controlling influence in our
national life. What we have to consider
Is no mere petty question of the mlsun-
derstandlng of one section OF the country
by another section. That is a subject which
has not the remotest interest for the people
Of the west. They have lost whatever
sensitiveness they ever had in this regard
precisely as the American people as a
whole are no longer stung by foreign criti-
cism.

TROUBLES OF CASEY.

When Casey disputed statement of
Clancy, .r .-.
And Clancy replied, to dispel any doubt,
With a seven-pound fist It pleased Casey
to fancy, t-1brr rtr1rr r.. a .-s ...E
When he woke up again, that his teeth
were knocked out.
But a doctor who practiced hypnotic sug-
gestion tr
Gave Casey long and lingering stare.
And said, my dear fellow, it's out OF the
question
Fol. you to imagine your teeth are not
there!"
Strange treatment but faithfully Casey
pursued It;
He swallowed food whole and imagined he
chewed 1t.
When Casey was quietly smoking one
morning,
As he placidly sat on a dynamite keg,
The contents exploded without any warn
ing,
And Casey descended without his left leg
The hypnotic doctor intently surveyed him
With strenuous eye and with patient
endeavor
And managed with many long words to
persuade him
That his leg was still on and as lively as
ever.
So Casey hoped painfully hther and yon.
Quite firm in his faith that the leg wasn't
gone
