Who Shall Judge? .; ' When wo say to a boy some man is great we may be treading on rather thin ice, for who shall judge the great ness of men? : In his still well-known calendar of the world's great men, from the dawn of history down to about 1820, Au truste Comte included only 559 names. ,'j "And to get this number he included such tiny stars us the American novelist, Fennimore Cooper, the English drani litist, Thomas Otway. and the Italian composer, Donizette. That many men who might be .called great are not rec ognized is one conclusion that may be drawn from thi. Doubtless this is true today. The man who invented the typewriter has affected the lives of millions. Judged by the benefits he hns conferred this inventor might well be called great. But how many know that the typewriter was devised by Christopher Lathan Sholes, a collector of cus tom' at Milwaukee, in 1867? '.That recognition of greatness is an accident is nnolher conclusion to bo drawn from the old list of the world's great men. Men are -much alike, however greatly their Achievements may vary.

"God, love and money" are given as the "three prime consolations known to man in the difficulty of his life" by Christopher Morlcy in the July Century magazine. Mor ley says that with all three consolations man is supremely happy, with one of them he is contented and with none of! them his life is filled with despair and is empty of all joy. j Every community knows its members who having God ftsk nothing more from life. .With them God is love 'and a tnoney and life itself. There are other men and women who have love and desire nothing more. They obviously tfive neither thought nor care to God or money. As for the members of the human family who are happy with their "money bags," they appear contented in their work oT"making and spending money. All three of these groups seem to find life worth the living and are probably sel dom heard to complain. But perhaps there is a fourth consolation unsung by Sage Morney. but none She less consoling to man. This fourth consolation is the power to think. Thore is im frreater consolation than the ability to think alone. Kel; tively few people can tolerate meditating solitude, but imtny envy those who can. There are men and women w ho know vf no better company than their own thoughts. They are called philosopher and their thoughts and words are eag erly sought after by solitude-fearing, people. We will ex tend Morley's prime consolations to include "thought." Consoling ourselves with thought don't we finally (md lhat all four consolations are but symbols for something else companionship? Why does man turn to God. love, money or his thoughts but for company? Isn't it a fact ih the final analysis that man's one consolation is society, not necessarily of people, but of something? Some thou will find consolation in God, others in love, others in money and still others in their thoughts but all in the companion thip thus offered them. Were ItOth century neuters?
