LET'S CHEER UP. THE WORLD is
MAKING STUPENDOUS PROGRESS.

It is sometimes with considerable
amusement that we read the comment
of some men today with respect TO
present conditions.
These discouraged ones can see no
good in anything that has been done
by the mature men of the present gen.
Grafton. To their jaundiced view every
thing has ended in a terrible mess, a
grand flop To them only one judg-
ment is possible to be placed on the
work of the men and women who
have been directing the affairs of the
world for the past two or three dec
AIDES. That judgment is complete and
total failure. They can see only one
solution of the present worldwide diff
ficulty. A new world must be rebuilt,
by entirely new leaders. They can see
only one word, FAILURE" written
in large letters over the accumulated
labors of the past and present The
young and oncoming generation must
lead the world out of all this terrible
catastrophe it finds itself in.
We feel the discouraged ones are
unduly pessimistic.
We are also convinced they do not
read with enough care the lessons his
tory ought to teach them.
They seem to forget that mankind
moves forward slowly
They also seem to forget that every
generation makes serious mistakes. IL
this were not so we would have
reached perfection long ago.
To our way of thinking nearly every
generation contributes its quota to the
progress Of the race And the eontri-
button of the present generation has
been colossal

Never in the history OF the world
has mankind enjoyed so many crea-
ture comforts. Gradually-and rapidly
within the past two decades-man's in
ventive genius has been lifting back
breaking toll from the tired shoulders
of mankind In fact that is true to
such an extent that today machinery
has taken the place Of Jobs and men
find themselves without suffi-
Gent employment to sustain themselves
and families.
Ease and comfort are largely taking
the place of endless toll. Our homes
are supplied with radios, electric
ranges, refrigerators, washing machines
and vacuum cleaners A switch is
turned and we have light throughout
our homes and cities. Before long, we
will heat our homes in the same way.
We step to the phone and talk to
friends in the next block or half way
around the world. We walk out to our
automobiles and embark on trips of
pleasure that may take us into near
by mountains or to the "uttennost parts
of the world" America, at least, has
become a nation Of travelers-all be-
cause of the automobile.
Never in the history Of the world
has mankind enjoyed SO many physical
comforts as he enjoys today and never
has their enjoyment been SO wide

So let's cheer up. Mankind's labors
have not been all foolishness and are
not all ending in chaos. Great prog
ress has been made. Things are in a
rather bad mess right now but the most
difficult problems will be solved. And
after the more pressing ones have been
disposed Of, partially or wholly, there
will still be plenty of them left for
the next generation to tackle. Man
kind is still long way from the mil
lenium but, on the hand, the bot
tom is not going to drop out of every
thing.
