PHILOSOPHY OF HURRY

There is such thing as hulrying your work and not dawding on the job; there may De need of hurry to the aid of friend n disress one should huf- fy to do right and delay do wrong there ale many places for hurry in the lexicon of life.
 But what is this philosophy of life that must needs hurry us in every phase of existence? Why this increased motif? this accelerated tempo? "Hur- ny, hurry hurry the sea- across the land thru the air, in mad race to get somewhere, and not knowing particularly what to do after we get there Faster trains, faster ships, faster planes It would seem the race has gone speed mad. People will drive loiter an hour in the next village. We tear violently thru city parks, honking at startled pedestrians who have to hurry to get out of the way. We go for scenic journey thru glorious mountains but the spirit of hurry is in blood and cannot even pause to marvel at vivid sunset Have gone crazy? Is there no longer time for calm contemplation of life and the good things in 1t?

style Of Chinese pagodas. These have

The main shrines are atop Tai

Emperor, the Temple Of Confuclus
and the Temple OF the Princess OF
Colored Clouds. Besides additional
shrines, there are a number OF affairs
where sacrifices formerly were-rnade.
The Temple or Confucius is conpar-
atively recent, and II Is within this
century that his worship has been
as great as that accorded the other
deities on Tai Shan. In the temples
Of the Jade Emperor and the Prin-

are almost human tn appearance.
