The "Right Now" Period
We nit) it people who wunt what wo want when we
want it. Every moment brings something in the lino of
invention which would make .the pioneer of tho Grande
itrntle valley stagger if he could but know it.
For instance, five days from New York to San Fran
cisco was fast enough for the most important mail in tho
(pinion of many a few weeks ago but when the government-
inaugurated twentyseven hour deliveries by air its
transportation facilities had to be doubled to provide for
the first mail.
Everything is good enough for man until something
btter turn up. Our pioneer forefathers congratulated
themselves on it footpath clear of brush and savages. Their
1'utheu marveled at the vapidity of stage travel and the
gwiflness of the pony express. Tho inventors of the steam
jnilroad enpine were condemned for their "ungodly haste."
Little more than a decade ago thirty miles an hour was a
fearsome rate of speed for an automobile. Today manu
facturers of automobiles for private use are spending adver
tising appropriations to tell the public that their cars will
"beat seventy." Yesterday five days was enough for trans
continental mail. Today only the dtfferp;iqo in postages
make", five days tolerable. Lieutenant Jlaughan's fifteen
itr.ur, "dawn to dusk" flight is a challenge to tho postal
department to "improve its service."
'.' But until quicker mail deliveries are provided twenty
seven hour service from coast to coast will be acceptable
d a "much needed improvement over the unnecessarily
blow five days' service by railroad." It is quite evident
that America has not yet reached the 'end of its speed
mania.

The Dog's Life
;' Acts of cruelty to domesticntod animals are less freq
uent today than homicides and prosecutions for the cruel
treatment of human beings. There are some grounds for
the statement that the public is loss angered by tho mis
treatment of humans than by the mistreatment of dumb
i 'initials. Our heartstrings are touched by the helpless,
is 'the way we explain this seeming anomaly.
We of today "take for granted that man lms always been
lis kind and gentle with animals as ho is today. Hut when
wo so think we forget that there must have been some
extreme provocation for the ninny laws against cruelty
tit animals and some cause for tho inception of the so well
organized societies for the prevention of cruelty to inti
mitis. On second thought tho older spectators of life can
probably recall a time when it was not an uncommon occur
tence for drovers and drivers to cruelly beat their beasts-of-burden
on tho public highways, when it was a man's priv
ilege to treat his animals as ho saw fit or as his disposi
tion prompted him and when any act of cruelty toward
atiimals was committed with impunity.
It was one hundred and two .veal's ago in England that
the first law was passed taking front the individual and
J.lacing in tho government, tho power to determine how
domesticated animals v. ere to bo tieated. Two years later
V) Old Slaughters' Coffee House at the upper end of Mar
tin's Lane, London, tho first English society for the pre
vention of cruelly to animals was organised, nichard Mar
tin, Irish member of parliament, pot the humanitarian bill.
fcdoptt'd at a tune when bear-baiting, dog-fighting and bull
bating were popular sports in England. The Kov. Arthur
liioomo organized that first society at Old Slaughters.'
j; The world today is not surprised that the slxteen-year-o'd
Princess Victoria supported Ihoonie's society and that
?.roonie on his, death bed, after spending his fortune for
his animal friends, requested that his dog bo cared for.
