A PESSIMIST'S OPINION. An article in the current issue of a magazine of wide circulation is severely critical of various phases of American life, it finds fault with our people s lack of thoroughness In performing their daily tasks, their chronic superficiality. The author came to this country when a small boy and even at the tender age of seven was impressed and shocked by the contrast of the superiority of the people of his native land and inferiority la virtually every respect of the people of America. Another thins that evokes his unsparing disap

Tha puthor of this magazine article hr.s ju.t retired 'with a large fortune after long service at th3 head of a great business. The only education he ever had was obtained in the American public schools which he criticizes so severely. His highly successful career is typical of this land of opportunity. The questii n is why he ever left his Utopia across the sea to come to sordid, careless, wastefull America, rr why, after learing the kind of country this is, he did not return home by the first steamer. Perhaps the explanation H to be found in his expressed belief that the foreign born make better citizens than those who were born here. He stayed here to be a kind of missionary to the American bcathen. His mission seems to have been at least financially fuccessful.

Establishment of the "chair of the Bible" aa a new faculty position by the trustees of an eastern college is evidence of an interesting trend in educational eircles. Appreciation of the Bible, considered not necessarily as the revealed word of God, but as an important literary work, is growing, and the demand for opportunity to study the book finds answer in the increasing attention paid it in the higher institutions of learning. Emphasis is being laid on the necessity c understanding the Bible if one desires fully to apprecate te great wcrks of secular literature. Not Milton.

The influence of the book on the lives of great men has been so pronounced that it may be said the Bible in itself offers a great education. Increasing attention being paid the Bible will have a marked effect on the progress of civilization. JOLLIFICATION in the former crown prince's quarters over the "revolution" In Germany probably has subsided to a considerable extent in view of subsequent events.

I Voice of the People FLAGMAN HAS TROUBLES, TOO To the Editor: Why is it that when an accident occurs at a railway crossing, the public is generally ready to lay the blame on the eropaintar watchmen? Rome pec-ple think that all a crossing watchman has to do Is to fit in his tower or flag shainty and while away time; 'but let an accident occur at that crossing and should the flagman be to blame they are ready to send turn to the State Prison for criminal negiecf of duty. Let me say that a large number of accidents on railway crossings are caused by the carlessness of drivers of motor or horse-drawn vehicles. I have seen drivers in auto-mrhil-eg or horsedrawn vehirles drive up t.- the railway crossings, and shonjld the gateman have his ga.tes lowered or the flagman be out with hta stop aign.

Few people are fortunate enough to escape the debilitating, dragging down condition that always comes' with the changing seasons, and especially when nature is undergoing the transition from winter into springtime. Just bow there is a universal re-adjustment of every element in nature. Plant and animal life alike merge into the re-awakening that comes with the budding of springtime. Naturally, such a decided change means a severe tax upon the elements involved. In plant life, it mean's that all the energy stored away for winter sustenance has been consumed, and the plant or tree must gather new forces to feed and develop it and give it strength and nourishment to enter upon the long dry heated term. Similarly, the human body has just passed through the severest season of the entire year, and has been subject to the hardships of the winter season with all of its various attacks of sickness and disease.
