THE SPEED MANIA.

The officer who was In charge OF
the vessel hit the iceberg has admit
ted that the speed mania was to
blame for the accident. He said
that when danger was discovered 1t
was too late to turn out of the way.
But the Titanic and her 1900
lives are not the only sacrifice to the
speed god these days. The present
generation has set for Itself such a
pace in everything that 1t Is impos-
sible for a man long to endure.
We boast today of the eighteen
hour trains from New York to Chi
cage. Speed is the one great object
to be attained. Yet hardly a week
passes but what we read of a mis-
hap to one or the other of these
railroad flyers, frequently accom-
panied by a loss of life.
With the new mode of travel, the
aeroplane, it is the speed mania that
claims the victims. Ayiators take
all kinds of chances with currents
and air pockets In order to get from
n place to another in the least
possible time.
The same is true OF the automc-
bile. The speeder, the ioyrider, are
the ones who come to grief. Hardly
an automobile race is held that lives
are not lost-all to satisfy the in
cessant desire for speed,
In everything in life it is the
same way. Manufacturers will sac
rifce stability in order to turn out
their products quickly. The nan
who can boast of the greatest out
put in the shortest time is looked
upon as leading all others.
In educational life, 1t Is the
youth who can skim through his
preparatory and college course the
quickest and get his degree the
earliest, who Is looked upon as The
smartest one in his class. Thor
ough knowledge is sacrificed and if,
by studying a few months overtime
during the summer, the youth can
skip a class, he is encouraged to do
so and receives commentator for
