days That Are No More"

Dickens describes stage-cOach
journey in such attractive terms that
we are almost tempted to wish that
such an experience might be ours.
But do We really want to travel as
our forefathers did? Certainly not.
The comforts of the way inn were ap-
preciated the more because they were
such a contrast to the wind and the
dust and the jolting Of the coach. In
winter, with a gale blowing and snow
on the ground, travel was not to be
undertaken lightly. No wonder large
quantities of punch and other stimu-
lating beverages were consumed by
the way, along with chops, steaks and
meat pies! A mortal had to have
something inside of him to keep the
severe cold out. And what about the
inn itself? 1t had food and fire and
probably comfortable beds, but none
of the conveniences such as modern
hotels have. Inns served their pur-
pose because the people Of that day
knew no better. Do we not hear even
now of stately mansions abroad, and
castles, that do not boast a bathroom
such as we Americans regard as a
necessity of life?
1t has long been the fashion to bark
back to the good old days" Take
away our youth-and that was the
most precious thing we had in the
good old days" and what remains?
Friends and associates, of course dear
ones who are gone, but taken by and
large, was life as full then, was it as
usefully and Interestingly lived as it
is today?
In creature comforts alone, which
mean more to the average human being
than most of us are aware Of, the
good old days" were woefully lack
ing. A scant 80 years ago we did not
know half as much about the science
Of living as we do now, and there were
not half as many ways to make life
both enjoyable and convenient We
put up with Inconvenience that would
now reduce the average city dweller
to the verge of nervous prostration in
about 4S minutes. The pampered
American Of 1926 has the movies, the
radio, the airplane, the high-powered
motor car, the luxurious steel train
with hotel Accommodations on wheels !;
the ocean liner; the towering hotels
where one might spend a lifetime,
never leaving its walls, and want for
nothing. These are but a few Of the
reasons why life of the present is
superior to what it was in the good
old days"
Then there is the increase In human
knowledge, the growth of medical
science, along with all other branches
of science. Most of the ills to which
flesh is heir have been mastered by

The Hero
of the War

Ever since theWar was over Nations
have been arguing over Who won
it" And if the discussion is not
stopped we may have tohave another
War just to decide who won the last
one. If we ever do 60 into another
War, have it understood there is to
be Referee, and atthe finish he is
to announce Who Won and how
much" In the last War we paid
Transportation both ways and rental
on the grounds, and now all England
and France say is, We didn't get
there soon enough" Germany don't
seem to ever have uttered any COM
plant on the latenesso of our arrival, so
that just shows you, you cant please
everybody, even for Humanitys sake.
j must bring the word Bull" Dur
ham in this even if | have TO drag it
in by the horns. 1t just struck me,
and after careful examination of
complaints and statistics, ] find that
"Bull" Durham was the only thing
Connected with America during the
War that France and England haven't
been able to criticise. ltmustbe good.
