Giving Meanness No Chance
Sir Bobert Falconer, president of the Univer­
sity of Toronto, speaking of. his country and ours
as neighbors, says:
“ It is therefore imperative that in both coun­
tries, bound together as they are by common in­
terests, a large body of mutual understanding and
good-will should* be. created which fesser persons
with narrow interests cannot flou t/'
.It is a sentence that bears thinking over.. Not
only does it hold the key to continued and develop­
ing friendship and peace between the two great
North American nations, but also it suggests some
of the causes and cures of strife among all peoples.
Of course the English-speaking countries are
particularly fitted to attain such mutual understand­
ing and good-will. In addition to their strong in­
dividual characteristics as Americans or Canadians
or «Englishmen or Australians, they have the com­
mon bonds of language, literature and basic ideals.
Bat oil the peoples of the world should be bound
together by common interests and, with intelligent
effort, they could develop a “ large body of mutual
understanding and wood-will." “ Lesser persons"
and “ narrow interests” are the trouble - makers
among nations. When they are allowed to attain
too great strength, wars result. In personal as Well
as national living it is safest and wisest to seek
such understanding and good-will as cannot bo dis­
turbed or overturned by petty, narrow, selfish fal­
A study club in an eastern city recently was
urged to turn its attention to the conduct of the
young people. One Jpembef suggested that chaper­
ones would soon he a thing of the past. Another
declared many girls were going unchaperoned with
boys for buggy rides.
Yes, buggy rides. The members were reenact­
ing a meeting when the club was organized 30
years before. But even at that the discussion is
strangely modem.
Substituto automobiles for
buggies and yoa have the up-to-date club meet­
ing discussion.
Thirty years have passed and the young pecóle
that the original members of the club worried about
have grown into fine men and women and are now
talking about their own children the same way.
Each generation does it and the mooted ones grow
up to make the elders surprised they ever worried.
It will be the same when today's generation has
grown np. Twas ever thus.
Treasure
A lot of would-be treasure hunters are writing
George Finlay Simmons for help in locating the
alleged pirate gold hidden on Treasure Island.
Simmons, who is curator of ornithology at a museum
of natural history, knows much more about the real
treasure on that island, but probably not so much
about the pirate wealth.
Tbe curator was head of the Blossom expedi­
tion which came back from those strange regions in
southern seas with a wealth of information and
with a great variety of interesting and valuable
specimens of bird, animal and sea life. All of these
things add grcajly to the treasure of human know­
ledge and are undoubtedly of infinitely more value
than the pirate hoard — if such hoard actually
exists.
Yet the pirate treasure appeals to many and
the real treaaure to few. So contrary ure human
folks.
Galli Curci gives it ont as her opinion that the
world’s most popular song is ‘‘Old Folks at Home.”
“ Sweet Adeline" has never recovered from pro­
hibition.
