try to comfort me. Your words
may be all very well for ordinary
people. with ordinary troubles.
But my trouble is so enormous
and unusual that it's impossible
for you to understand It. =
Poor Augusta!
I suppose we've all felt like

But that's all wrong. An grief

black bread which the soul OF
man must eat before he grows to
mans estate.
Do you remember that bread
we all ate during the war?
Coarse, dark stuff rough and bit
ter to our pampered palates. We
would have sc0rned It under ordi-
nary conditions. But there was
something dramatic about eating
Il during war times. Our C0un-
try Asked It Of Usl When we
thought OF that, the black bread
ceased being unpleasant food and
became & rite that somehow
bound us to each other.
We never grew to like the
bread. We never grew to like
war. But there was something
about our community service and
sacrifice which made life very
significant for IN alIsomething
we miss now In our more pros
porous times.
Grief's like that-if you'1 try
to see It.
We don't know why e II sent
into our lives. Perhaps 1t isn't
sent. Perhaps we make Il for
ourselves by our own stupidity
and selfishness. But whatever It's
origin. there It Is. And we must
consume its coarse. repellent fare.
Down It must go. whether we like
It or not.
And by the manner Of its down
ing, we are proven.
II we eat our black bread OF
grief as Augusta Is eating hers,
its bitterness is intensified a thou
sand fold. It's bitterness Is in
tensified until It becomes an &C

Now. It would seem that the.
color scheme OF humanity is con-
siderably upset by the new
theory, for we are told on the
authority Of Prof. Bean that
though we may be white skinned
we may at the same time be
either mesomorphs or hyper

not be hypomorphs. But In the
blacks and the yellow browns all

OF the division into the three

IN ESSENTIALS mankind IT,
very much alike in all times
and places. The division into races
does not sever the central heart
wood Of the human stem. Never
fheIess the differences that are the
subject OF study by ethnO1ogists
are usually so plain that one won
.ders how there can be so many dis
cordant theories about them. Just
az botanfsts have had widely vari-
GUS systems Of classifying plants,
and biologists Of classifying the
lower animals, so anthrOpolo gists
differ with respect to their own
kin.
Once we were taught that color
was the chief mark OF division be-
tween the races. There Were white
men, brown men and black mon.
Then red men were added. Another
division that has been prevailingly
accepted OF late, is based on the
shape OF the skull. Some Of Us
who are curious in these matters
may have been led to inspect the
horizontal outline Of the inside Of
our hats to determine whether we
were ''brachycepha1ic"' Cbrbad-
skulied), ''dolichocephalic" dong.
skulIed), or unacceptable" (nnedi.
UNI slxulled). There have been
some learned hatters who, like the
learned BARRIERS at a former time,
could discourse instructively and
entertaiIlingly on these points OF
contact between advancing science
and the mysteries Of their craft.
But now comes a newly invented
division Of the human kind, which,
in order to keep up with the re-
searchers and theoriZers, we shall
have. to learn together with its
Greek rooted phraseology. The In
ventor is Prof. r. b. Bean, Of the
University OF Virginia. who starts
us proud though we bel from the
Neanderthal man of Central Eu-
rope, who lived q few tens of
thousands of years ago and was a
very base fellow, at least in looks
and manners, IL we may believe the
busts that he has lately been hon
ored with. and the traces Of his
habits that he has left.
They Had Legs
According to Prof. Bean the
Neanderthal species Of man was
a ''mesomroph," that is, medium
formed as to his physique, which
means having legs neither long
nor short, and also a head neither
long nor short. From him as the
ancestral type, mankind branched
off in two opposite directions
toward long-legged and long
blame and call him to answer?
For, verify, verify, man Is
as civilized as woman DE.

The Sheep's Intellect

If YOU want q little lesson IN
sheep nature that is e lesson in
human nature as well, 60 to the
sheep pen Of q slaughter house.
Down below are hundreds of
sheep. They are all alike. There
Is very little to distinguish one
from another. They crowd
about IN q woody mass which
shifts here and there about the
pen. One beats and they all
bleat. The mass moves this
way and that.
Then q man leans over to
wise-looking old sheep wearing
q bell. The old sheep beats un-
derstandingly and starts walk
ing toward the killing room. The
beil tinkles and the sheep follow
that sound, follow the bell
wether, their leader.
Up TO the very door Of the
slaughter house the mass moves.
Then the man calls to the leader
again, and the old bell-wether
leaps to one side. He stands
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1926-05-08

watching his fellows pass TO
their doom. Eagerly the crea-
lures run through the door to
their death.
Every day It is repeated. The
Judas sheep leads thousands Of
his fellows to their betrayal. But
always, on the threshold Of
death, the leader leaps aside to
safety.
II a sheep could only investi-
gatei IL one sheep in all those
thousands would only stand at
the gate of death and turn back
his fellows, fight them back to
safety.
But sheep-thinking is the
thinking Of the mass, the mob
that runs blindly, guided by a
straw of instinct. The sheep do
not stop to investigate. They
hear the tinkle Of that bell and
follow.
In the world how many are
like that!
