You must remember; it wasn’t long ago. And now will some bright little boy or girl tell the rest of the class just how many kidnapers, who were tried, con victed and condemned under these laws, have been legally put to death since then? And does anyone seriously believe that anywhere in th e Union, Bruno Haupt mann would today st and a p p r e c ia b ly closer to the electric Irvin S. Cobb chair, had not child- murder been added to the other hideous crime of child stealing? We’re a great people for laws—not for enforcing laws; dearie me, no, we’re much too tender-hearted for that rough stuff—but just for having nice orna mental laws on the statute books.

We are never deeply alarmed over the annual, sometimes semi-annual, predictions that tne world is soon coming to an end (it is a wornout way of attracting attention to one self, too). The only manner in which the world can reach annihilation is by some great convulsion among the planets. The mathematical system of the universe must have been worked out long ago, or we should see in our day at least one or two collisions of worlds whirling through space. But they do not collide; and they have not collided since the morning stars sang together. They are a perfect example of per petual motion, and, therefore, the deathless inspiration of those earthly souls who think that if perpetual motion can and does prevail in the scheme of cosmos, they can discover the secret.
