Real Wages

looking over the things to be thankful for during the

In former days the comforts and Injuries OF lie cost

or the field of investment.
This brought out by survey Of the National In

Tyranny Of Conformity
This is pity! But it is well
that the reading public should
know about it. Scientific work,
and especially scientific theoriz-
ing, may be as narrowing to the
mind as any other form of hui
man activity. There are scien-
tific men who are as ready to
die for a theory as the martyrs
or a. FORMER age were 10 be
burned for a creed. But that
is not the spirit that advances
science. For the best scientific
theory after all is only a creed,
of human invention, like all other
creeds. Theological creeds are
smashed because of their inflexi-
bility, their intolerance of inn
provement, change, or advance.
Their absolutism is their ruin.
Let us have no attempts at alb
solutism in science.
Because the shape of the chin
of some ancient American skull
does not conform to the type that
anthropological theory. based on
European facts, ascribes to all
men of the glacial ages. let us
not burn our own facts for a sac
rifiCe on the altar of the idol.
DR.. Cummings is quite right in
protesting against the tyranny of
the conformity which seems, as
he says, Ito be becoming an edu
cational as we'll as an ecclesi-
astical requirement in our ma
tional life"

tell Blake of their unsuccessful
attempts, he recalled that early
that morning he had spoken in d
sharp and almost brutal tone to
the dog as he crouched playfully
at his feet.
'sIt pleased Blake enormously to
discover that his dog refused To
return without first having an
apology from Blake himself. As
soon as he RELAXED what the dog
wanted he lavished much fondlins
and petting on the thoronghbre I
head.
"Yet this same man, so willing
and ready to apologize to his dog,
nearly every day will silence his
boy with an angry shout, refusing
to listen to any explanation and
will even ,ridicule his boy and
point out his faults in the pres
ence of others.
Blake seems to have more con.
sideration for his sensitive dog than
he has for his sensitive boy. He
doesn't seem to realize that he 10

and grow into moody, silent, in

will not be the boys fault.
There are too many fathers like
Blake who don't seem to know that
it's just as easy and far mora

They don't seem to know that to
