The Adventure of Common Life
BY OR. FRANK CRANE tCopyright. 1921. by Frank Crane)

ordsy ws ts sssa Fsssf ng aSx much adventure there
 By adventure we imply that playing with chance, that gambling with destiny which gives keen edge to existence.
 Life is secured to none of Above all our secur es hover the unknown dangers and spend our days as soldiers lodging bullets
 The ancients expressed this fact of life by the myth of the Fate the Three Sisters who span for each man his web of days and of these sisters sat with the scissors ready to snip the cord.
 Men have come back from the war where thV faced death hourly yet were untouched. x
 One man will step banana peeing, fall and break his neck Another will tumble out of fifth story window and come off with few bruises
 An amazing illustration of this occurred the other day in Brooklyn ne-year-od girl was standing on the platform of elevated station She rolled over the edge to the tracks just the train was arriving.
 However she bounced away from in front of the train and was saved from death under the grinding steel wheels
 The momentum of her fall rolled her off the tracks into the space under the platform. Here she poised a moment and then dropped on down to the street. On her way to the street. however, she met other danger. She fell upon electric feed wire The insulation of this wire perfect, that instead of eectrocutng her instantly, the wire simply helped to break her fall
 Bouncing from the wire she hurtled to the street and fell upon her back on the pavement.
 This, however, did not kill her. In fact, she was not hurt much except for cut on her mouth
 She was taken to the hospital and the surgeons reported that all they could find out of order three broken teeth and laceration on her left side.
 This little girl had probably dozen frst-rate chances to get killed and she got by them a and prob ably the day several people died as the result of trivial accidents.
 It looks as though there is use trying either to impede to hurry the Three Fates They seem to haze their considerations to just about how long to ma our life.
 Another incident which illustrates this same point is that of who tried to commit suicide some time ago by jumping into the ocean at Brooklyn He foated l a he found, and finally wound up at Long Beach, where l he was rescued
 There does not seem to be much use in trying to shuffe off this mortal coil before it is turn.

much when to think of it. It is only the wink eye of the infinite and omnipotent
 And here is another thing that offers an explana ton of what had always regarded a perverse circumstance the longevity of our old fossils. We often wondered why they did not die earlier and get of the way Why the other caenolestes lives long Dr. Osgood tellsby always taking the easiest and safest way has accomplished mere existence. Other forms of early life took chance. They perimented, adventured and roamed the earth. They evolved into higher types with varying degrees of intelligence.
 Says Dr. Osgood:
 "The secret of its success eff existence Is success) is in the simplicity of it's requirements. It has gone extremes never developed any very special tastes or peculiarities tried periments never went off a tangent and never took any chances"

 SANTA FEE. N. M, Aug. 30.-The republic of Mexico is being quietly, peacefully, rapidly colonized by Ger mans.
 This Is the word brought back by traveller who has just returned, and who has exceptional facilities for learning the facts. Though native citizen of the United States he is of Spanish blood, speaks and writes Spanish as well as English, and has many friends and relations in Mexico. He travelled all over the republic seeking options on land for American capitalists. He talked to Mexicans of all classes in their own language and as one of their own race. He got facts which are not accessible to reporters and politicians in Mexico City.
 What this man saw in Mexico was a young country going through phase of swift development through colonization and investment. While American politicians and capitalists are trying to formulate a policy to- ward Mexico, and trying to educate the American people to accept that policy, Mexico herself is becoming a different country. They have thought of her as bankrupt and starving. As a matter of fact she is producing bumper crops and is solvent. They have thought of her as a nation of half-wild Indians. As a matter of fact her rich lands are drawing to her some of the best blood in Europe.
 A very large part of this blood is German. Young Germans of good education and with money in their pockets are pouring into Mexico by the tens of thousands. Recently the Mexican government, this man re- ports, sold a great tract of land to 15,000 young Germans. Each of these men has 30 years in which to pay for his farm. Each of them will found a family. Many of them-and this is a very important point-will marry native girls of Spanish blood.
 This German colony will form a great block of thrifty farmers. not isolated. but bound to the rest of the population by ties of marriage. In the opinion of the observer we are quoting, these men will become as much a part of Mexico as any men in it. They will support the Mexican government, to which they are in- debted for their land, and the Mexi- can people, with whom many of them will have intermarried.
 In addition to these Germans who have bought a block of land, there  are numerous small groups and indi- viduals from Germany coming intp the country in search of farms. These young Germans usually first obtain employment on some of the large estates for a year. They learn the language and the country. Then they buy farms.
 Americans Poor Coionizers
 Some Americans are going into the country and buying farms too. it is reported. but they are few compared to the Germans and other Europeans Furthermore, the Americans form small groups and keep to themselves They seldom intermarry with the Mexicans, and often they do not ever learn the language. This man was surprised to find many Americans who had been in Mexico for years and could not speak Spanish.
 In 8 word, while the United States holds political club over Mexico's head, by reason of the Monroe doc

Misin.erpretation of sentimen.

Rupert Hughes Souls for Sale" is r<way. It is serial headed toward Los Angeles where Mr. Hughes has been rustcating. It starts out. pretty we'll though MT. Hughes on the first line errs in mistaking the bucolic sentiment of the middlewest with regard to Los Angeles. He makes a preacher in Missouri village hold up his hands and raise his voice to shriek against this modern Gomorrah where the movie industry is largely concentrated.
 As Missourian Mir. Hughes ought to be able to interpret Missouri sentiment. We supposed that in passing back and forth he occasionally revisit the scenes of his boyhood. But still think he does not know how they feel toward Los Angeles wen bet he forgot to ask them about it. We know how the Iowans feel and how the Kansans feel It is i'm probable that the Missourians living in angle tween them could entertain sentiment contrary to that of neighbors sides that Los Angeles is chemically pure, probationary point where resi- dents from the Hawkeye and Sunflower states stop to prepare for eternal bliss. To go straight from Great Bend Osceola to Heaven would be too much of jolt. Los Angeles serves as a shock absorber for the elect.

neither animals nor machinery with which to work it. The result is con- fusion and idle land.
 An instance is related of a man who owned 50,000 acres of land. He employed all of the several hundred inhabitants of a village, mostly h. dians. His land was taken away from him and given to the Indians He gathered up his possessions, including his horses and cattle, and prepared to move. A delegation from the Indians waited upon him. hat in hand. They begged him not to go away. pointing out that they had no means of cul- tivating the land. An agreement was finally reached by which he furnishes seed, tools and livestock. while the Indians furnish the land. It is farmed on shares. Everything goes on much as before. The former landlord is now the renter. and the former rent CTS are now the landlords But the difference is nominal. Everyone had plenty to eat before and everyone still has plenty to eat.
 In other instances the adjustment has not been made so easily. Lands have been left idle Dispossessed landlords have sold out and have left the country.
 It would seem to be this readjust- ment of the land tenure which threat ems the stability of the country Once it is over, the country will probably settle down to an era of production and prosperity, if II is not disturbed from without. For it will be land of contented agriculturists owning
 their own land. Such men furnish
 no stuff for revolution. Mexico's 10 years of revolution have been caused by political opportunists leading
 bands of land hungry peons. With | the land hunger appeased. the
 force which the professional revolu- tionists manipulated will be gone. And the average of intelligence and of
 education in the Mexican electorate | will be raised by infusions of high
 class European immigration. For | good land draws good men. The | United States drew a high class of
 immigrants just as long as 1t had good grade of land to offer them | And when 1t had nothing but shovel l in a ditch or a needle in sweat shop to offer them, it began to draw
 a poor class of immigrants. Mexico is a land of unused natural wealth l which will draw wealth of human
 brain and Drawn to it.
