CHEAPER
Dissident Americans abroad are coming in for their share
of criticism, which is a refreshing change from the criticism
of everything Americans by both foreigners and Americans
abroad.
The culprits are business men and even government rep
resentatives from the states, who with residence abroad
grow apologetic for their native land. But the expatriates
who count themselves superior to their country of whom
most has been heard are the young writers, artists and life
questers who have shaken from their feet the dust of Babbitt-ridden
America where it is impossible, they complain,
for a man to think in freedom or write in accordance with
his own orthography and syntax.
Concerning such rebels there have been of late reports
both sad and illuminating. Like other refugees bettor
known to fame, they have not succeeded in conquering nos
talgia. Every little while when they don't watch out the
goblins of the homeland get them.
That, perhaps, is nothing to their discredit. Much more dis
turbing aro, late wiraors that.lhey.ttrt not fibula-ait- all. What
they fled from was not domination by Success and Service
and censorship slavery but the high cost of living in the
cultural centers of Yankeeland. They are thus far from be
ing at odds with the generality of their countrymen.
; IMPATIENCE
Impatience is a malady that afflicts a large proportion of
Americans. This is manifest in many ways. Long before
a train reaches the station many get up and .stand in the aisle
as if that would cause the train to arrive a bit sooner. Some
feel that it is necessary to be the first to alight, though they
"W not be pressed for time at all. If a train is a few min
utes late in arriving impatience is expressed in remarks
about the poor management of the road. If these impatient
people wait five minutes for a street car they declare it is
a half hour and conclude that the road has gone bankrupt
and has quit running cars. If an elevator is mil .-.vtiihiM,.
the instant they want it, they push the button and fuss and
fume. It is not unusual for a pedestrian to take a chance on
crossing and then turn and watch the train go by. It is not
the value of lime which makes such people hurry so. Instead
of being as busy as they think they are they are merely
impatient.
If impatience were indicative of zeal and efficiency in
achievement it might be regarded with tolerance. The per
son who makes lime really count does not hurry. I lurry does
not mean rapid work, necessarily. Haste ' often makes
waste.
Impatience leads lo fluster and fluster interferes with
efficiency. Impatience, possibly, is but a inanifestatinn of
the rage for speed. Speed directed in little circles does not
carry one Jar from the starling place.
