Which Way Is North?
~ Or. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915. BY Frank Crans)

There are some people who always
know which way is north.
But have seen public speaker refer
to England and point in the direction of
the Philippines.
IL is a distressing sensation TO be
turned around" There are some cities
where the sun rises in the west lived
in such town once for year. learned
which was north; but, bless you learn
ing north does no good; you have to feel
it. | never did so long as / remained
in the place. The only directions that
soaked into my consciousness were Up
and Down.
Chicago is the best American city for
directions. There are only three. There
is no east If you try to go east you get
into the lake.
There are also people whose minds
have no faculty of orientation. They
think logically enough, but they never
know which way they are headed. They
go fast enough, but it is around and
around, like man lost in a Dakota bliz-
gard. After enormous exertion they
wind up where they began.
1t is Characteristic of sanity to ga
ones bearings and TO keep them.
The sane man is always glancing
about. to square his new fact with the
old ones.
The man who follows one idea whittier
soever it leads, in entire disregard of
the old tried ideas he has lived on all
his life, is pit crazy.
For the most important thing to do
with any truth is to fit it in with the
truths you already have on hand.
There's not much use getting steam
up. hosting the blue Peter, and racing
out to sea, unless you have compass
and are bound for somewhere.
For instance, the strenuous life" 10
vigorously cracked up; but it is well
first to know what you are going to be
strenuous about and whether it is worth
whileL
Enthusiasm is good but when you are
just enthusiastic genecally and about
everything you make US tired; take an
hour of and find something worth stew
ing over.

self-ihdulgence. One day spsnt in APP
pfcation, with some specific end in view,
Is worth a month of such wandering.
Likewise IN character itseK there 10
a vast deal Of wasted sentiment because
there are no carefully thought out. de-
liberately chosen principles. What use
less martyrdoms, what vain earnestness,
what futile consciehtiousness, when
there is no ever fixed pole" to our con-
victions!
How many a lover has come to grief
because he did not know which way is
north!
How many a politician has failed, how
many business man has been wrecked,
how many a young woman has found
only disillusion and wretchedness where
she hoped for JOY, how many a marriage
has collapsed. how many a writer has
sunk his book in eblivien-all because
they did not know which way was north

Washington. March 23.-Offers OF

that European neutral was contem-

1t was declared authoritatively
Thursday that no proposals Of media

dent Wilson issued his first public
military orders for the defense Of the
nation He called into the federal ser
ice eleven regiments, three companies
and two battalions of the National
Guard in eastern seaboard states,
comprising approximately $4,000 men,
for local policing purposes.
He recognized the army depart
ments and in general shake-up Of
seaboard commands transferred Gen.
Leonard Wood. recognized as one OF
the ablest officers and tacticians in
the army, from New York to Charles
ton, 8. G. He increased the enlisted
strength Of the navy to the legal maxi
mum of $1,000 men and instructed
Secretary Of the Navy Daniels to in
woke emergency measures to recruit
the $4,000 men the navy now lacks OF
war strength.
In taking this last step the Presi-
dent recognized officially for the first
time the ,imminence of war. He acted
under the provision of the navy law
that "the President is hereby author.
lied. whenever in his Judgment suf-
ficient national emergency exists. to
increase the authorized enlisted
strength Of the navy to $1,000 men"
A general shakeup in the command
