More Thought is Americas Need

More thought, not organization or machinery,
is what America needs in the present crisis,
President Lowell of Harvard asserts. He says:
What we need now is not more organization or
more machinery, but more thought; personal
thought, clear, far reaching and profound, as I'M
biased and lunnined, and, not least as wide
spread among our people as possible, for in the
multitude of the wise is the welfare of the world.
Most people, and perhaps in peculiar de-
gree the American people, tend in the busy life
of the world to save themselves from strenuous
thought by taking refuge in the opinions of their
associates, of the men in like occupations, of the
party or group to which they belong. This saves
some of them, indeed, from eccentricity and from
irrational extremes, but it does not absolve men
from responsibility for the correctness of their
opinions or save the nation from the conse-
quences of their errors.
THE fact that others make the same mistake
is no excuse. Yet people who go with the prevail
ing current of opinion seldom feel any response
bility, still less contrition, when that current
leads to wrong doing or disaster. Corporate or
cooperative selfishness is today greater dan
ger than personal sefishness, because it is more
insidious and wears the garb of something more
noble than mere personal aim.
Although men are by nature gregarious
creatures, they should not, like sheep move I'M

War is Over

The war is over and | feel that all
the world should know it; for profit
teers still harshly steal the savings
from a poet. How easily the prices
rose in times of war and terror, when
we were swattins brutal foes, con-
vincing them of error! AS patriots we
stood the gaff and took the deadly
bitters, thought prices would be shorn
in half when we had whipped those
critters. The war is over, but the
cost of many things is, booming, and
all our wages we exhaust in ultimate
consuming How easily the prices
slid until they reached the ceiling,
Wilhelm waved his iron lid, and all
the world was Keeling: as easily they
should come down, since now the war
is ended. and Wilhelm's lost his
valued crown, and had his bucksaw
mended. I'm taxed too much for this
and that for which and those and
t'other. for catnip and for my sacred
cat, and stogies for my brother. The
war is over and from woe to normally
we're beating, but progress is so
beastly slow we think we are retreat
ing. Progressive merchants wisely
strive to sell things cheap and cheap

make the prices sleeper.

Good Evening

They were the kind of people who

was the daughter of a small town
hardware dealer and he had made his
success in New York. They always
managed to spend all that he made,
but they almost belonged to society"
They had a daughter, and, of course,
they were looking for brilliant mat
rimonial alliance. The girl had been
to the best schools, knew a little
French, played the piano a little, had
little voice and did not eat with her
knife.
The mother had spent the last few
years on the verge of nervous prostra-
tion. She knew every trick that a
mother with a manageable daughter
should know and did everything but
chloroform every eligible young man
who came their way.
The girl married a chauffeur.
Ten years have elapsed and the for
mer chauffeur has made good. He is
now president of a large motor con-
Germ.
Some of the eligible sapheads are
frequenting hotel corridors and are
borrowing money when they get a
chance.
