Confusion.
BY DR.. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915, by Frank Crane)

Every evil is but confusion.
What strikes you when talking with a
criminal is his jumbling vision. He has
lost all sense of proportion. He imagines
the most absurd things to be worth
while
Alcohol is the chief of crime breeders
because it befogs the mind, upsets any
proper judgment Of values.
The best man is the man who sees
most clearly.
Ignorance is not absence of knowledge.
The lout knows as much as the savant;
only his facts are pell-mell, his informa-
ton Is litter. Having no mental order,
he has no force The ignorant mind Is
not blank, it is dump heap.
Disease is confusion. Good health Is
the harmony of all ones organs. Pain
is physical mutiny, riot, and confiagra-
ton among the cells. When the liver,
pancreas, stomach, nerves, and the rest
keep step, and march along sweetly by
companies to the music of cheerful
thoughts. you are well; you are i'll when
they break ranks and become mob.
Insanity is mental confusion.
Morbidity. despair self-pity, and all
the dotish doldrums of the mind are in
locations of undisciplined thought.
What we call sin is but confusion OK
desires. The commanding captains, wis.,
dom. will, and principle, have abdicated.
The soldiers are given over to looting.
The wicked man is not the one who
wants wickedness. He does not know
what he wants. He is rudderless ship,
the more dangerous in proportion to the
strength of his engines.
Love is order. 1t is sort of super
wisdom, a divine wisdom, feeling what
the intelligence cannot reach.
Love correlates, adjusts all things. 1t
diagnoses accurately.
1t sees far ahead. even to eternity. 1t
Is not blinded by the present. II is not
hampered and deceived by experience.
Love estimates truly. sees relative val
ues. apprehends essentials
Jealousy, hate, estrangement, are
blind. They stumble. They do not see
facts. but butt their heads against them,
for they grope in the dark.
Success. in a real sense, never comes
save as the result Of seeing clearly what
we want.
If you are confused. do nothing. Wait.
Go away and be still until the storms
blow over and the sun shines again.
Goodness is clarity Of heart. Wisdom
is clarity of mind. Happiness is clarity
Of soul.
Faith, hope, and clarity, these three
but the greatest Of these is clarity.

is Looks From Here As If
They Arrested the Wrong
Men For That Explosion!

The charge of manslaughter has been
made in New York against Albert NJ
DiclZman, agent for the Lehigh Valley
rnilroad; Theodore B. Johnson, president
scf the Johnson Ligher Lighterage &
Towing Co., and Alexander Davidson, SUI
perintendent Of the National Storage
eo1npany.
They are accused of having permitted
Sezplosives to be stored where human
Nyes were endangered
B This action on the part of New York
o1lcials followed the blowing up in New
Ycek harbor of war munitions for Me
AIliss, close enough to the city to break
ovsry window in the pedestal of the
STATUE Of Liberty, and with force enough
( y blow the main door, made of iron and
Weighing ton, off its hinges.
The air was full of shrapnel and the
hn3b0r was as dangerous as battlefield

1870 three known dead, % missing and
11o injured and probable dead.
The property loss had been fixed at
bstween $4,000, 900 and s45,00O,O0O
The ammunition was on barges,
locked in defiance of law.
~ None of those charged with the re-
eponsibility for it's presence close enough
= New York to blow the city up will go to
Jan, because the old game of blaming it
on the other fellow is already being re-
sorted to by those for whom warrants
were sworn out.
Prosecuting will not bring back the
dead, nor restore those who were injured
( 30 soundness.
Il looks from here as if the blame
really rested with those officials whose
duty it is to watch the harbor
It is incredible that great loads Of ex-
I plosives could have been where they
we're without the knowledge of such Of
6cials.
To prosecute now and TO search the
harbor for other ships loaded with deadly
explosives is locking the barn doors after
the horse has been stolen.
We are too much given to that sort of
thing in our government.
We always permit the long chance,
and when some great calamity befals,
We look astounded, when, as matter Of
TACT, we shouldn't be astounded at ALL
This catastrophe in New Yorks har-
Dor was to have been expected
That all Of New York and the other
cities around are not in ruins today is
due to big piece of luck.
