Meanderings OF A
Mildly Militant Mind
The Monkey Menace.

"Novelty-seeking Palm Beach At
tends Wedding Of Monkeys" states
one of our leading dailies; then fol-
lows description of the ceremony,
sane society folk acting as minister,
bridesmaids and ushers.
The bride and groom were the only
participants in the affair whose con-
duct deserves no censure. They, at
least, did not make monkeys of then;
selves.
Linckewicz the, Austrian biologist,
says that unless false culture is push
ed aside and normality asserts itself
over modern tendencies toward de-
struction, men will, in 1000 years, re-
vert to monkeys.
Incidents such as this monkey we'd
ding lead one to question the aged
scientists calculation of time. 1t ap-
pears to be about 1899 years out of
the way.
Those who habitually speak slight
ly of marriage may see no harm in
the Palm Beach proceeding. 1t is
there none the less. There is some
thing morally deadly in such a per-
verted idea of amusement.
When such a spectacle provoke ,
laughter instead of disgust, some
thing fine in human nature is diving. if
it is not already dead.
To keep alive wholesome regard
for the safeguards of society is the
dutyof all who appreciate them. This
can not be done if we refuse to treat
serious matters seriously.
Laughter has it's place. Amusement
too. We need them both. But we
want the right kind.
Those funloving souls whose wit
touches our risibles and brings from
our lips bursts of innocent laughter,
are benefactors in the truest sense of
the word. And they who furnish us
clean, refreshing amusement are en-
titled to our gratitude.
To those not altogether lacking a
sense of humor, life-just plain ev-
eryday living-affords no end of
mirth-provoking episodes. The hap
riest persons l know are those whose
dispositions make them Independent
of the effort Of others, so far as mat
ters Of recreation are concerned.
Matching the idea of the monkey
marriage evinced initiative, it must be
admitted, but it certainly manifested
a vitiated sense of the fitness of
things. And-that's the evil of to-
day.
Discrimination is fast becoming a
lost virtue.
The inclination to follow whatever
fashion or fad dictates, regardless of
its merit, is APPALLING. Modesty gives
way to mock-modesty; decency to
daring; sobriety to sordid Stiffness.
Not, / would believe, because humani-
ity no longer aspires to a high stan
dard of morality, but because, in the
swift rush of events. it has lost its
balance and is not yet equal to the
task of regaining it.
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise. (Pocomoke City, Md.) 1921-1953, 1921-02-26

REIMBURSEMENT takes time. But
That time would be shortened, and
the dire possibility of becoming
great-great-great grand parents t.
monkeys would be diminished if each
member of society would discriminate
between good and evil, and, with I'M
failing allegiance to the good, press
fearlessly forward.

be entirely governed by price, but by
service rendered, he says. A "Drivs

throughout the country. AS an intro

Practical Method of
Policy Issuance Need
By l.. Harris Goldberg

AT the annual meeting Of the Ma
tional Underwriters conference, held
week before last, a resolution was IN
dorsed instructing a committee to IN
vestigate a practical method of issuing
optional fire and theft policies, one
form allowing the assured full fire and
theft protection at higher rate, and
the other, having co-insurance pro
vision, or percentage basis, with q
proportionate reduction OF the pre-
mi ium.
This idea Of underwriting will prob
ably require q month or more to put
in concise form before action will be
taken by the conference committee.
says "The Eastern Underwater"
Fire and theft underwriting through
out the country has been q disastrous
situation, and the companies are be-
wildered at their great losses The
fact that the assured will bear por-
ton of his loss will tend to eliminate te
carelessness and wlful neglect, The
insurance companies idea is not to in
crease rates, for the motorst has al
ready been overburdened with nsur-
ance cost, but to work out this So
called co-insurancc arrangemen5 in or
der to bring the business back again
to its old footing
The optional policies will be issued
after certain Investigations are made
as to the moral and financial standing.
An automobile owner whose report may
only be fair would probably obtain a
percentage of loss" policy, while the
motorst with good record could OBJ
tain at a higher premium contract
permitting fuel protection.

Clarence A. Earl, president of
Briscoe Motors, figures that s5,000,
100000 a year in time is saved
through use Of the automobile. The
estimate is Of the actual time saved
in the use of the automobile as
against other means of every day
transportation.
Even figuring as low as an hour
a dny saved per car, this means
daily saving of nine million hours"
he says. Many business men count
their time as worth from S. to $25
an hour. The yearly saving, even
at the rate of So an hour, is seen
to be tremendous.
"Only by viewing the automobile
industry in it's broadest sense are
we able to visualize the great part
it has played in the march of civili-
zation."
