Regarding conditions on some OF
the outstanding national motor

says:
AN outstanding route. because of
its significance as a midcontinental

Do not suppose that this was an
accident, the popularity of an indi-
vidual youth. 1t is what had been
taught to that youth in grammar
school, in high school, in church, in
the newspapers, the movies, and the
political campaigns; the ethical code
of civilization, the propag n d a
whereby ten million youths are kept
contented with their lot. Educators
and moralists, editorial writer's and
Fourth of July statesmen do not put
it so crudely, of course: what they
say is that America is the land of
opportunity, and every child born in
it has chance to become president.
The italian educator, Pestalozzi,
tells how the little fishes complained
of the voracity of the pike, and the
pike held conference, and adiudged
the complaint to be justified, and or
dained that every year thereafter two
little fishes should be permitted to
become pike That most charming
fable tells me all I need 20 know

For a million little fishes to be
preyed upon by a hundred great pike
