DIR CRAZY CRITICS.

From papers read at the confer
ence of the National Education AS
| ISOLATION it appears that lis, 900, 900
of the 100000 school children of
the United States are diseased" that
less attention is given to them than
! to cattle; that many rural school
houses are mot as well kept as pig
pens;'' that "a cesspool of degrade
ton exists under the shade trees Of
Princeton" and more of the sort,
notes the New York World, and it
adds:
The educational muck-raker is the
, boss muckraker of them all. What
2 diseased and degenerate race we
are! What nation of detectives and
delinquents! What with the warm
ings of educators, eugenics extrem-
lists, alienists, oculists and other CEN
sors and monitors who assemble in
congresses, the conclusion is forced
that everybody is either physically
diseased or insane, that nobody can
see, that nobody is fit for marriage,
and generally that whatever is is as
wrong as it possibly can be.
If only our midsummer mentors
would season their reproofs with
saving moderation-if only they
would not "exaggerate" so, using the
word in the Lauterbach sense!
Making all allowance for the ele-
ment of population which is not up
to standard and whose deficiencies
furnish the excuse for all this lectur-
ing, we are yet, speaking by and
large, the most moral. progressive and
intelligent people the world has ever
seen. Our great crop of reformers
and moral regulators is of itself proof
sufficient of the fact.

EVENING CHAT
ON Looking After You Lean,
BIT RUTA cAz6ERosS,

An lOOk1nS Alter You Lean.
TWO men who mad not had a great deal
OF social training were among the guests
at a dinner where the paraphernalia of
eating was extremely complicated, and
neither of them had the least idea which
fork to use for a certain course. One of
them took up an implement, hesitated,
laid 1t down and tried another. The other
calmly took up fork and used it. Now,
1t was the wrong fork. But, as it hap
pened the guests immediately about him
were no better informed than he and
they at once followed his example
So the first man was set down by OBJ
servers as a social blunderer, and the sec
was simply that while the first man vaciI-
lated from one decision to another the
second made UP his mind and stuck to it.
Dellberat1on,-the habit of calmly weigh
ing and measuring values before you
choose, of looking before you leap, is
splendid quality: but indecision,-the habit
or unhapp1ly weighing and measuring
values after you have chosen, and of look
ing back after you have leaped, and per-
haps trying to leap back again,-is the
sign of a mind diseased.
If you want to succeed in life, you must
learn TO make up your mind to thing
and stick to it. He who hesitates is lost,
is true in more than one sense.
Once in a while, of course, 1t is wise
and necessary to back water but for that
weaken our cause, fail of success or spoil
our chances of happiness by reversing a
decision that has once been made
THE thing we drivers have to fear
most" an automobiles said to me the
other day, lis these people who start to
go ahead and then change their minds at
the last moment. Half the people who get
killed get it just that way"
Again, there was terrible accident on
a railroad crossing the other day in which
a man and his wife were killed instantly
1t was a blind crossing and the man did
not see the train until his machine was
On the track. At first he tried to back
the machine, then he changed his mind
and tried to get across. If he had made
up his mind quickly to do either thing,
and stuck to his decision, he would prob
ally have been alive today. But his mind
ton. and he paid the penalty of his weak
ness in a swift and terrible way. So, in
both the big and little things of life,
vacillation is a dangerous habit, and the
verv best moment to fight it is the very
first moment you feel you are getting into
it's clutches.

says UNCLE CIV

The longer the thoughtful man lives
the more firmly is he convinced that
it is never too late. 1t is a cold, brutal,
unavoidable fact that no two men in
the world have equal chances. You
may as well dismiss from your mind
the excuse that you haven't had a
chance-that you have been tied down,
held a prisoner by circumstances and
prevented from achieving your hopes.
More than likely it's all true. 1t is
true of most of us. Most of US are
born poor, most of us have physical
handicaps, patent or hidden.
It's an unequal game-and no power
on earth can make it anything else.
A good many men with big things in
them have to fight half their lives for
a chance to put in the other half do
ing those same big things.
Occasionally circumstance is a
friend who gives the brilliant youth
a chance to do great things while he
is still young. Sometimes wealth or
friends make it possible for the man
with the stuff in him to be a world
figure before he is 80. Again, there
are men with a transcendant gift for
work, coupled with a well nigh per-
feet physical and mental organization,
who can win early i'm spite of all OBJ
stacleS. But most of the big things
in the world are done by men who
have fought until 40 or so for the op-
portunity and who in the mellow lat
ter days give the world what it might
have had a score of years earlier if
it had been wise enough to know it.
1t is never too late. Genius is a
hardy plant and it will live long in
the hope of a single opportunity. A
fixed purpose, amplified, reinforced, re-
fined and made practical through 40
years of struggle is sometimes only
flower
Moreover, this is a careless world.
Success being largely matter of stay
ing in the fight, the almost universal
careleSsneSS works to your advantage.
The thing that you thought of yes
terday or 5, 10, Is, 40 years ago, may
be done tomorrow, or it may never be
done until you do it. The opportunity
that slipped you long ago may never
return, but the chances are that it
will. Fight on-keep that lip from
quivering. Don't look licked.
Don't get discouraged. It doesn't
cost you anything to be hopeful. You
can keep young longer by keeping your
hopes fresh than you can by any other
means. And if you win in the end,
you've got to keep young. Worry ages
he feels-no younger and no older.
Fear kills the young feeling. Discour-
agement embalms it and lays it away.
Get discouraged and you're done for.
But it is never too late. Work and
plan. Keep your body clean ana
strong. your brain resilient and your
heart light. Work toward the chosen
goal, and don't be afraid. You'll get
there. The big things of the world,
with few exceptions, have been done
by men who fought for the privilege
of doing them and put the longest
and best and strongest years of life
into that fight. It's never too late
