The Value of a Dream

From the Philadelphia North American.
 And this is the poorness of some oi us-we have lost our dreams!
 I think we never wholly lose the power to dream, for we see even old men who have come through many years of the most dreamless dealings in dull trades, sitting with far-away look in their faded eyes and mental ly wandering-who knows where?
 But the mind is like the muscles the Hindoo ascetic ties his left hand behind his neck to his right shoulder, and after certain time it stays with out tying. Disuse petrifies. Those muscles we neglect lose their full power to serve us. So it is with mo- tions of the mind
 We have great power to think, yet few of us exercise it to any extent
 And that is how it comes that many of us have lost our dreams.
 To you in the fullness of brisk autumn morning, with life and needs throbbing all about, it may not seem much of cause for regret-this loss of dreams
 One who would say, q am so sor- ry," might be laughed away.
 They are such cheap things! They are well within reach, so we can turn to them any time we choose! They do not help us socially, financially or WOTlu WiSelN
 By all this we mean they carry no dollar mark But is it true?
 This very home of the dollar mark this land which today is the center of money and material-was d1scov- cred in dream.
 One day--it would be numbered among the great days, if we but knew the date-the son of Genoese wool merchant dreamed as he watched the ships sailing in and out of the port and America was born to civilization
 That is just a sample. The full line includes nearly everything worth while that has been done or said since Times clock was started ticking.
 And the worth while things that yet are to be done will come through dreams
 As Lord Dunsany says in his Last Book of Wonder" in special preface written for American readersa&
 Just now the civilization or Europe seems almost to have ceased and noth-a ing seems to grow in her torn fields but death, yet this is only for a whole and dreams will come back again and hloom as of old. all the more radiantly for this terrible blowing, as the flow CTS will bloom again where the trenches are and the primroses shelter in shell holes for many seasons. when weeping Liberty has come nome to Flanders
 ITO some of you in America this may seem an unnecessary and wasteful quarrel. as other peoples quarrels oft en are but it comes to tnls, that. though we are all killed there VIII be songs again, but if we were to sub init and so survive there could be neither songs nor dreams, nor any joYouo free things any more S*
