Are We Reasonable or Mad?
What the whole world nee'cls today is less emotion and
more reason. It needs less suspicion, less hate, less selfish
ness, and more candor and trustfulness, more kindliness
and more brotherly fairness. It needs less narrowness and
. more breadth of mind, with a calm sense of ordinary
justice.
There is scarcely a government .movement, party, in
stitution, association, group, or company which is not in
fested with the rancor of selfishness, with its malice and
district, its prejudices and vindictiveness. The prevailins
radcalism is an emotional display, rising from discontent
over reverses, worries and unplcasantries. We have had
too much time to consider things which should not concern
us and regarding which we know nothing. In our perplex
ities we have looked to Good Father Government to help
us out, and, when he felt the we were imposing on his
kindly nature,' we decided to take things into our own.
l: hands. ' "
Normally, we have all that we can do to attend to our
own affaii's. Our occupational interests engage us and
keep our minds balanced. Our steady work suppresses
'emotions and curbs imagination, and we give way to deep
feeling only over great happiness or grief. We live n or
dinal lives.
We have had too much idle time, with too much men
tal agitation, and we have spent it is suspecting everybody
and contriving how we might promote our own advantage.
Our suspicion has swayed us to hate, lawlessness and des
potism. Our harried 'observation has led us to imagine
, that everybody and everything is wrong, and our suspicion
and hate have 'impelled us to try to make everybody and
everything'right according to our own personal ideas.
Improved -business, ought to divert our attention from
petty hates and imperious manner to staid reasoning.
Prosperityrjmmld keep 'our , minds busy I with harmless
thoughts, auillispdse:Ls. to be willing, if not glad, for ev
erybody else to be happy.
Emotional excitement, comprising all farms of radi
cal activities',' is fallowing itself in everything from the Cap-
itol in Washington and the seats of government in London
and other great cities down to the corner. drug store. In
every case and place it is due to malcontent and selfish
ness. . :
' It is a good time for men of intellectual poise to stabil
ize the emotions of the neonle. It is a cood time to decry
suspicion, hate and selfishness bv ennihasizing the
thoughts, things and issues which stand for reason. Sus
picion, hate, and selfishness irradiate, and the only way to
check them is to restore the state of common sense. The
whole world has too much emotion and too little reason.
Ladies, Listen to This!
A. D. See, the New York millionaire who condemned
colleges for women in refusing to make a contribuiton to
one,;is quoted as saying that there .'ire three things that a
wife shouid do. First, she should look as nice as possible;
Second, she should wait on her husband; Third, she
should keej) quiet.
This theory parallels the case of the German profes
sor and his wife who eame tu the United States a few
months ago. lie traveled first class; she in the steerage.
The woman, when questioned, explained that her husband
was learned.
The millionaire's views are so narrow that they are
scarcely worthy of discussion. livery clever wife 'looks
as nice as possible. In every ordered home, in which cour
tesy abides, husband and wife wait on each other. But
the gentlemen shows that he is ignorant of feminine trail
when he maintains that a wife should keep quiet.
Respect and deference are companions of love in the
happy household.
Communis., and Human Nature.
The Russian government has discovered grafting
among state employes, and has sentenced some to death
and others to long terms in prison. It is saw to be waging
a strenuous campaign against this si t of treason.
In the communist system no ore mav n property,
but receives only what be needs. Gi.'l! in state uffices
indicates that leaders do not practice their theories. It
is not only human to err; it is human to want to ow n prop
erty. Communism cannot li o Urau.-e it is opnosed to
human nature. 'r

chance of getting anything better than the common kind.'
