Justifying Our Existence.

The feeling is growing that
higher demands should be made
Of individuals; that when men
and women live together in com
munities, they should justify their
existence by worthy accomplish
ments.
The principle which makes high
er demands of groups than of in
dividuals is recognized in our laws
against conspiracy. Frequently
individuals can do that which col
lective bodies may not do.
Any individual may fritter away
his time as he pleases, but it is
the popular verdict that when
people spend their lives together,
their time here on earth is wasted
if they do not improve conditions
and prepare the coming generation
for useful citizenship.
There is justice in this verdict,
because any community that does
not grow and improve will event
ually waste away and the people
who are at the helm now, the citi-
zens whose opinions are respected
and whose leadership will be fol
lowed, should feel that they have
| a very grave responsibility.-Ex.
