r'roin .statistics, reports mid investigations of all hinds
1 iill inii! fairly familial with the statistical peisiuiajfo kimwr:
tts the avcnijjc man. l!ut our kiKiwIedjju of him is viiriio
uHd -sluulnuy, and the moro we try to make such knowledge
.-iletiiiite the more we are hafl'Ied.
In the iibstnict we know what his foelinus are. lie is
in i'avor of uplioldinjf the constitution ; of jfivini? everyhotly
a: siiiare di-al, and of iicting pretty much as he oiiKht to.
Ve could recommend him as a thoroughly liood fellow;
five years ajfo he wasn't averse to taking a drink now
liiid.then not too much, just enmiifh to keep him an
average' man. Today ' lie doesn't dvink at all. lie is Inv
aliding and loyal to his family and community.
' Hut all this is nbstract, and does little more than in
(iiice a desire for closer acquaintance with him. We should
like to know, for Instance, how long he can make a !f:"!l
ftiii'.ot clothes lust, or doesn't he even wear anything so
cheap us that? It may seem n trifling thing hut isn't it
reasnnnlile to want to know whether the average man
sleeps on his right side oi' his left
W may not grieve to know precisely what he works at;
lie Qiolinlily works at whatever he can find to do, but the
onustion vcmains "what time in the morning does he get
upVJ'ArnMhis one- suggest the further iiuuryi'its. to whether
do Mv?ibiK u-ith inv in liis linnrt. and (rviipts his iilarm clod:
i .... ...... J - c--- -
iif liis lies long-lost frieiul or whether in anger he snatches
ttTrhis mechanical dispeller of dreams and chucks it under
llie covers lie fore It has finished its matutinal hymn.
' ' Then there is the matter of shaving. Does the average
man shave, and how often, and when? It is strange thai
we do not know these things about one with whom we are
ii.s familiur as we are with the average man from the vol
umes of literature about him put out every year. W'e are
nnl:much concerned witi what he eats; he probably eats
wlllltever the market affords. l!ut tjoes he really eX as
they nay he should in books on etiquette some kind 'of
soups with a motion away from him, mid others with the
'fitMMin coming towards him?
Despite assurances from statisticians and investigators
to. the contrary, our knowledge of the average man is very
limited. He could do a great deal for social uplift and
""trtweation if he were less secretive and exclusive than hi.
actions seein to make him.

By Comparison
The present cnonition has Itt-on hrandod as immoral;
but a less superficial survey will reveal the fact, farther,
tjiat it i.s iiKTeasinjrly critical. "We are living in lax times."
"Vur country is on the way to perdition." "A wave r.I
TfiYiriorality has swept over us.M These are expressions
'tllV at the present time in all parts of the United States.
The plays which are drawing the largest crowds, it i;;
"frxie. may contain problems heretofore considered too inti
mate for discussion. The jokes in other successful produc
i tions may Htrike harshly upon sensitive ears. The hookn
.!' the day may dwell too liberally upon the principles of
ivhe, Kven the .voting people, who have not had the ad
fHlt;ie;e of their elders' restrictive traininjr ami censored

?Utrr-'iot modest; they have no restrve!

in other periods? The ordinal reading oi'

plays of today. Life apM'aicd to have little value se:

XItti crude lack of ivstrniuiittf laws relative to the personal
Ir'-'cty of women set another seal upon the deireneraey of
