THE NEW ERA

What an age is this In which VIC
live. Before the auto truck comes
into general use, even, dlrigible Is
being constructed that will carry 200
passengers and thirty tons of read
weight, and Henry Ford is coming
out with small plane that will arise
or light in country road, as easily
managed as an automobile. The new
dlrigible and plane will be a direct
compensation of the world war. Had
it not occurred such transformation
in transportation would yet be far
in the future. Within two years
passenger and freight aerial craft
will be as common, and as practical,
as automobiles are now.
With thlrty-ton dirigibles in COM
NOR action Blue ledge copper, all
other minerals and timbers now in
accessible, will come flying over the

In southern California. south of
Bakersfield, originally all a part of
the great desert, there Is now main
tanned a thrifty population OF over
two million souls. All the produce
possible from the intensest culture
of luguminous and citrus growths in
diginous to that soil and climate
would not maintain a population of
five hundred thousand. That sec
tion has over twelve times greater in
come from another crop, seldom
deemed worth intense culture, yet
easily as sustaining and necessary to
community health and progress in
that environment. Not only has it
proven profitable to pillow and plant,
cultivate and irrigate for the former,
but vastly more profitable to invest
great sums of money in preparation
for and development OF the latter.
Two years ago the tourist crop
brought to that section about two
hundred and seventy-five million dol
lars in new money. while, on account
Of frost and other untoward condi-
tions, ground crops produced that
year less than twenty-five millions.
The tourist crop yielded about twelve
and one-half times more ready cash
than the ground crops.

DGEiNERs OF THE PAST

Strange II would be, surely, to live
in q town OF age and decrepitude,
where old men and women sat dream
ing of the past and wagging their
heads at the dreams of the present
and the future.
However, in their backward dreams
there is hope: A faint outline Of old
Spedunk, the scene of their early
marriage and youthful ambitions
might come to view.
They might remember old Crouch !;
how he came to Spedunk in the early
days and sat himself down on a large
tract near the town. How he grum-
bled and predicted sad end and
sure bankruptcy when younger spir-
its, of which this Old 1feamer was
one, the same year raised fifteen
thousand dollars for a monument and
celebration, twelve hundred dollars
for an advertising campaign and yo'-
ed fifty thousand dollars to augment
the depleted water supply of the vii
lage. How old Crouch did groan.
How he predicted financial collapse
and bewailed the already high taxes.
How he swore he would sell out and
go where people had better sense,
but never did. Instead, he busted
himself opposing every proposed for
ward movement, but when develop
ment began he proceeded to cut his
tract into town lots and sell them a.
fabulous prices, soaking the money
in his old sock and stoutly refusing
to contribute any share to further ad-
vancement. How the forward spir-
ii OF the town made farther progress
until the sale OF Grouch's town lots
left him rolling in wealth and howl.
ing louder than ever about ruination
and bankruptcy. Ee was old and
conservative so he started loaning
his money where his conservatism
could lean back and look like wis
dom, still continuing to knock while
the town advanced. He greatly him
dered because he met every newcom-
er presenting himself with a sug-
gestion, coupled with a groan, that
taxes were too high and the town had
no future.
But Spedunk advanced in spite of
his warnings. Nobody paid any at
tention to him because they knew
his protestation was In the hope of

lodging taxes and contributions. OF
course, ne was the last to remodel
his buildings and they were left va
cant until everything liyeable in the
town was filled and renters finally
occupied them only because there
were none better to be had.
Spedunk kept growing and rents
advanced as the demand increased.
Crouch then grew fond of telling how
we did it-how he settled on the
large tract and sold it in town lots,
having paid two dollars an acre and
sold at one hundred dollars a foot.
He gloried in pointing out the spot
where the largest skyscraper stood
as the identical one on which he
raised his first modest home.
Don't you remember, he never, to
his dying day, awoke to the realiza-
ton that his wealth came to him in
spite of himself, because dreamers
OF the present and future were in ac-
tion with forethought and courage
enough to overcome his retarding in
fluence and speed over the dire ca
lamities he predicted.
Here the dream of the past ends.
On this memory let us throw the
mantle Of charity over Old Crouch.
He is long since dead. His unearned
fortune served only as a bone for
his children to fight over and most of
it was spent for attorney fees in the
litigation. His grandchildren still
live in Spedunk and are thrifty and
Influential. They know that all the
wiseacres of the realm predicted ut
ter bankruptcy for England when
she borrowed her first fifty million
pounds, but found her more pros
porous when she owed eight hundred
millions. The compensations of wise
advancement, even on credit, have
been proven to them and they are
leaders in progressive movement.
Old age must come. Wholesome
visions are found in the past, but let
us not wag our heads at the dream
ers Of the present and the dreams of
the future and, whatever else, let
us not be an Old Crouch.
