Modern Reforms as We See Them

Reforms are splendid things,
provided that they accomplish any
real or lasting good. Reformers
have been springing up like mush-
rooms in a hotbed ever since the
time Of Adam and possibly few
million years before. We have
thought some of going into the
business ourselves, but rejecting
that we might need to do little
personal reforming and that this
would prove to be a pretty tough
proposition, we have delayed going
on the stage to correct others.

tor boat man on the coming trip will
have the time of their lives.
A year ago, Captain Decker took
