MALOXEV Xews Editor ' POIXTLKSS IXDUSTRV. . A CRITICISM of the modern American declares that ho is so busy that ho has titno for HttU of importance. Ho is greatly agitat ed over tho bread and butter prob lem of his cxistoncc, but he talccs lit tlo tlmo for serious planning and per manent, directed efforts towara n goal that is worth while. Thoro may bo a good deal In this point of vlow and ono may readily convict himself of inconsistency In this respect if ho stops to examlno tho things for which ho really finds tlmo ovory day. Ho should not con fldor the things which ho Is going to do thoso are dreams. Tho bald actuality, tho sum of what he dally Accomplishes, is usually less encour aging.

Ho may nrlso through stress and storm, and bo a crodlt to his poppor; porhaps ho'll wear a uniform and hnvo n billot as a coppor. I do not daro to soar too high when dreaming of this latost comor, yet it may bo, before I die, I'll seo him busy bb a plumber." Thus parents dream and scheme and plan a life for baby that's a wondor; and when tho kid bo comes a man, ho knocks tho bluo prints all to thunder.
