REAL REFORMS ARE SILENT
ny DR.. Frank Crane

Real reforms are silent. Not that
there Is not plenty Of noise, but u
Is on the surface, and often the up
roar is greatest when progress is
slowest.
There is a steady growth toward
betterment in all human affairs. This
has been noted by all who grasp the
wide reaches Of history. It Is ac-
knowledged by sane thinkers.
Cumulatively since the Stone Age.
mankind has been going forward In
the march Of civilization. Often the
going has been slow, sometimes there
have been apparent retreats, but
every century finds some ground
covered.
The broad marks are apparent.
Monogamy has made constant head
way. As an institution Il Is undeni-
ably OUTLYING all rivals. The belief
Is surely winning that the union Of
one man and one woman in marriage
Is the only normal way to provide
for the natural expression of sex in
stinct, the due care for offspring and
the conservation Of ideals.
War Is going. Duelling has prac-
tically disappeared. Private wars,
and that condition Of perpetual fight
ing which prevailed in feudal times
and which bred the soldier class, have
been swallowed up by modern nation
alism.
And the last Great War brought
about the idea Of the world-pact OF
nations, which in course Of time will
do for mankind as a whole what ma
tionalism has done for Great Britain,
France and the United States.
Alcoholism is passing in America
and will undoubtedly meet a similar
fate in Europe, although IL will take

The superstitions, founded In igno.

Democracy is establishing itself,

but as the principle of industry.
All these measures Of improve
