Feeling Sorry For Ourselves It would be impossible to deny that the citizens of the world live In troubled times today. The pressures of Berlin, Cuba, Southeast Asia and Africa seems to be almost unbearable. In the background of these geographic hot spots so the "awesome knowledge of nuclear weapons. But, before we feel too sorry for ourselves, It is a good idea to look backwards. The history of man is speckled with the rise and fall of great empires. Too often, we look back at these eras and see only the bright spots. Each of these glittering empires — Egypt, Babylon, Greece, Rome, ( and England — the various civilizations that formed western man — had their troubles. We read of the great men or great achievemenls of these times, but never hear of the common man. The pyriamids are mighty monuments comcecorating ancient Egyptian kings. But what do we hear of the countless thousands who drug the giant stones up to build these monuments? Great adventure stories come from the "Golden Age" of exploration, but what do we hear of the millions living in the slum conditions of London, Paris and Madrid four hundred years ago? These little people had the same problems we have today. It was "dog-eat-dog” for a day to day existence. If the truth were known, it is probably much easier today to make ends meet than it was in those days. And those people had their worries, too. Fires destroyed complete cities. Plagues wiped out fantastic numbers of people. Wars visited man all too often, regardless of where he lived. It is not difficult to hear a wishful return for "the good old days”. An objective examination shows 1 that those days were not good, and could quickly grow old. In fact, only because of our own advances in civilization can we appreciate the slower pace of life of our ancestors. We do not actually yearn for the good old days with their poorer standards of living, their high death rates, their poor sanitation standards, and their buckbreaking physical labor. The only thing for which we yearn is the slower pace of life that accompanied those days. \ One satisfying fact comes from the past. Every age that produced great advances for the benefit of man, whether it be mechanical or cultural ' or spiritual, had its accompanying periods of unrest, strife and worry. ' The lesson of history is that when turmoil ceases, | civilization is in the descendancy for a time. It is only through the unrest and the dissatisfaction of troubled peoples that man moves forward.

Check On Action On Old Covered Bridge The Adams county commissioners spent most of the day in Indianapolis Monday, checking on action on the old covered bridge oh state road 101 in Pleasant Mills. The bridge has been condemed and a five-ton load limit has been placed on it, posing many problems for loaded highway department trucks and other company trucks in the county that haul gravel, stone, etc. The trucks are normally loaded with more than five tons, and have been detouring through Decatur to get on the other side of 101. Plans have been drawn up 1 for a new bridge by the state highway department, but the new bridge is still in the planning stage and the commissioners spent the day attempting to get action moving on the new bridge.
