an average speed Of eight miles an hour was re-

Ripping Rhymes

THE DAY OF REVOLT

Revolt is in the air; young authors
everywhere are breaking all the rules,
defying all tn schools; traditions must
give way, and all things old and gray
must fall-triumphant Youth will
show us what's the truth. The bard
we most admire played on discordant
Tyre; the man we thought a seer but
chronicled small beer; the wreaths
old writer's won were worth ten cents
a ton. The era of revolt! The brisk
and naughty colt appears to proudly
trot around the pasture lot, and age
worn Dobbin flees, or tries to climb
some trees. The young colts neck is
arched, his tail is deity startched, the
old plugs hear him neigh to get the
right of way. But this is nothing
new; since first young ROSTERS crew,
and old ones skunk away to hide
among the hay, revolt has fired

Thanksgiving Day

The question of what to be thankful for en-
tiers the mind of many persons on Thanksgiving
day. Some are prone to believe that they have
little for which they should return thanks to
divine Providence. They look with jealous eyes
on others who surpass them in material goods,
and rashly conclude that these are the ones that
should be pre-eminently thankful on the day Off
cially set apart as one of devout gratitude.
But this analysis is very shallow. There are
mighty few families in the United States that
cannot look back upon the last year and find
many things for which to give thanks.
Comparing Our country as whole with the
debt-burdened European countries, all Of US
should be happy that the ravages of war spared
us as mercifully as they did.
Some continental countries are suffering in
tensely from domestic chaos and unrest; in 9TH
ers millions of inhabitants are starving and
freezing. We know nothing of such widespread
misery and woe in our country.
Let us localize the issue to ourselves indi-
vidually. Many Of the daily blessings we enjoy
are accepted as a matter of fact, without a
thought that our grandfathers would have re-
garded them as royal l-xuries.
In our homes are labor-saving devices, articles
of comfort and convenience such as king did
not have 100 years ago, and access to informa-
ton and knowledge in our newspapers and maya
zines which rulers and cabinets could not have
had for any consideration century ago. The
very multiplicity of our blessings has blinded us
to their presence.
The common things, SO woven into our every
day life as to become necessary parts of it, are
innumerabe. Take the subject of food We
have princely fare compared with that of our

Introducing the Social Engineer
Correlation of Social Activities and Elimination of Useless
Agencies is Aim of New Office.

living in an enlightened age. But there
are still great defects in management.
Most of our charities, for instance,
are now widely regarded as evidence
of bad management on the part of a
community. If proper preventive
measures were taken, we are told,
vice, crime, and disease could Re re-
duced to a minimum, and the ch eS
they entail would be largely unaec
essary.
But instead of attacking evils at the
root, communities busily engage in
what one social expert calls "mopping
up work" Everyone knows that al
leys and tenaments breed crime and
vice, and that they are in the long run
expensive. Yet millions of dollars are
regularly put up for prison relief
homes for abandoned mothers, and
milk for underfed babies, while it is
next to impossible to raise money to
replace tenement conditions with
something better.
The latter would mean in most cit
les a great reorganization, and cities
have always shrunk from trying to tao
kle a number of social problems at
once. 1t seems easier to fight vice at
one time with board and committees
of specialists, and to take another time
to campaign against defective santa
ton.
Into this situation comes the social
engineer He is called in by a city or
county to point out the defects in its
management and to suggest way to
correct these defects. He surveys the
entire social organization, makes q
written report. and leaves the COM
munity practical working plan to
be carried out.
This may well seem an enormous
task. We have become so used to the
idea that a person must specialize in
a subject before he can be an authority
that we instantly ask how man can
be a specialist on the entire social
/ structure. The answer to this is that

a quick nor an easy proposition. The
board has taken the first step by an

that it aims to have it established on

DR.. Henry E. Jackson president of
the board and an experienced social
worker, has been authorized by the
board to designate himself social
engineer. He is the pioneer in prac-
ticing the new profession.

of a social engineer without official
title for some time. He has followed
