Abraham Lincoln. .,... Going Forward to Nature Life Is Rcc.Kiiiij M r.' Complex Every Year "Back to nature" is a popular slogan in many quar ters. It is seldom taken seriously. The "back to nature" people all end up in New York or Chicago. ' . They go back to nature for two or three days and back to the city for life. Man dislikes to sleep on the ground. He does not relish being bitten by mosquitoes and other insects. Clean beds appeal to him more than a bed of leaves. Clean, well lighted, well ventilated houses seem bet ter to him than dark, damp, poorly ventilated caves. Sidewalks and paved streets meet his approval.; Wading in mud does not. Books, newspapers, schools, libraries, art galleries, etc., attract him. ; "All 'modern improvements" make life comfortable and saves time. Shall we go "back to nature" or "up to nature?" What is man's natural state? There are two answers to this. One school of- thought holds that man was always civilized They hold that savagery is a degenerate state. They maintain that there is no evidence of a time when man was not civilized. There .are many facts that appear to Support this view. . Another school holds that man has slowly evolved ; from a lower form of animal life. They hold that civiliza tion is the crowning result of a man's slow progress and adaptation. According to this school, man adapts himself to his environment- He is not what he was - twenty thousand years ago. He is adapted to the civilized life. Whichever view we accept, man's present natural atate' Is otie of civilization'. .yJinummomiri) I "vras To attempt to live like the animals of forest and field would be degeneracy on either theory. Back to nature in this sense is not desirable. It would mean the destruction of man's achievements during the last few thousand years. There is no reason to believe this would better man physically and mentally. In fact, civilization, rightly used, should improve man in every way. That it is abused is not the fault of civ ilization." Man has himself to blame for this. With the population of the world as great as it now is, what we call civilization is absolutely essential. Back to a primitive state would mean extinction for half the rnce. Civilization is not perfect. It has many glaring de fects. In many respects it is top-heavy. It is too complex. Its vices are many and increasing. Many of its best miads are at work devising means of destruction. Life is becoming too complex. The human constitu tion is unable to endure the strain that is placed upon it. The mind becomes bewildered- Specialism becomes necessary. Specialism leads to a one-sided development. Specialists become puffed up. They refer to those ig norant of their specialties as hicks and morons. Life should become more simple. It must become more simple. Unless it does so civilization will suffer by deteriorating civilized man. i ; -. o General Andrews, the new prohibition head, says he will try to dignify the prohibition enforcement busi ness, and he wants $50,000 a year men to put the thing over. That would be fine. We'll take one of those jobs at $50,000 a year, as that is a trifle more than the print ing business pays us. Creswell News. o "Reggie" Vanderbilt has died. He inherited $15, 000,000 and lived a life of case and gaiety. He is dead at 45 yours of age, at a time when most men are entering upon their greatest usefulness. There is no evidence to show that Vanderbilt used his money in any public move ment or for the good of society. His passing leaves no void. Albany Democrat-Herald.

MP : ill- jVvV j Dinner Stories A little son of Italy 12 years old came to his teacher in a New York public school an1 ,-sked if he could not have his name changed. "Why do you want to change your name?' the teacher asked. '! VantMd"be ifVViVirMrifV.' l live In America now." "What American name would you like?" "I have It here," he sold, hand ing the teacher a dirty scrap of paper on which was written: "rat rick Dennis McCarty." When David Lloyd George, ex British premier, was a young country solicitor In Wales, he was riding home in his dogcart one day and came upon a little Welsh girl trudging along so wearily that he offered her a ride. Sho accepted silently, but all the way along, al though he tried to en.tage her In conversation, he could not get her to say anything more than a timid "yes" or "no." Some days afterwards the girl's mother happened to meet l.loyd George, and said to him smilingly, "Do you remember that my little girl rode home with you a short time ago? Well, when sue got home she said: 'Mamma, I rode home from school with Mr. l.loyd George, the lawyer, and he kept talking to me, and I didn't know whatever to do, for you know Mr. Lloyd George charges when you talk with him. and I hadn't any money. " The mother heard a great com motion, as of cyclones mixed up with batterlngrams, and sho hur ried upstairs to discover what was the matter. There she found Tnm- mle sitting In the middle of I ho floor with a broad smile on his fare. "Oh, mamma." snld he delight edly, "I've locked grandpa and Uncle George In the cupboard, and when they get a little angrier I am going to play Daniel In tho lion's den." As the celebrated soprano began losing little Johnnie became great ly excited over the gesticulations of the orchestra conductor. "What's that man shaking his stick at her for?" he demanded Indignantly. ' "Sh-h! He's not shaking his stlrk at her." 1 !'1 h Hut Johnnie was not convinced. "Then what In thunder I he hollering for?"
