ONE VIEW OF A PESSlMlST
Somewhat Severe Description, But
Most People viii Agree That It
Is Largely Truth.

A pessimist is a son of the man who
didn't believe there was any such
thing as electricity.
He is an offspring of the man who
was sure that the horseless carriage
would never come, and a nephew Of
the man who was willing to bet that
men would never fly.
A pessimist is a direct descendant
Of the man who was sure that wireless
telegraphy was FOOLS dream and Il
submarine merely the creation of a fic-
ton writer's brain.
The pessimist's ancestry scoffed at
the telephone, the typesetting machine
the 2O-stOry building, anesthetics and
every forward step the optimists have
taken for the betterment of human
life.
If the pesslmists of the past had
been right, men would still be living In
caves and trying to get their meals
with clubs and flint arrows. And evil
IDENTIFY they died without publicly con
Tossing their mistakes, for their pes
simistic children continue to prophesy
dlsmally that everything that is surely
going to be cannot possibly come to
pass. They seem to be born with the
habit and cannot get over it.-Detrolt
