The average man is not a tlg fellow when you come to know him. You have to make his acquaintance if you are not to hold: yourself aloof from this hu- man, interdependent world, remarks a writer in the Philadelphia Ledger. He constitutes a*majority. It is by his vote that candidates are set up and igsues determined and business gov- erned and charities supported and plays patronized. There is a great deal of money in pleasing the aver- age man. Moreover, the level of -his, tastes Is rising, though pessimists re- fuse to see it or to say so. He is ca- pable of education and he has traveled far since his training began. He needn't always be given all that he asks for; sometimes he makes mis- takes, and sometimes he wants what isn't good for him, Sometimes he loses his head, and in an incendiary/ or inel e temper, loses that which a cooler judgment fn a calmer hour leads him wvorry for. But on the whole | he is gely reasonable and patient amd ntrolled. It is touching to fiid how often he s doing the best He serves the world far better thun some eccentric and unconventionul mortals who sneer at him tor following a dull, unemotlonal routine. Leaders of men have learned to deal with the average man, to talk his lan- guage and to \understand his wuys. They have taught the rank and file to discover a latent capacity and to | revenl a strength hidden and unsus- pected. They have had faith in Fthe general good sense and honest inten- tions of mankind.” They have gen- uinely loved their fellows and their sympathy has been real and manifest. Neither in' war nor in peace is a vic- tory to be won unless the captains put thelr confidence in a host. R i 8he Knew. The girls in the seventh grade all wore large hair bows made of beau- tiful, bright tissue paper. They were not only inexpensive but so pretty that they were declared a great suc- [l cess until one day It rained and the bows faded all over the little owners’ hair. Then great was the lamenting. One of the boys looked from the girls with thefr spotted red and blue and purple hair to two spinster teach- ers in the 1fty-year-old class. “I don’t know as they're so badly off,” he re- marked to the teacher who was young and pretty apd with a strong sense of humor, “T'd rather be fadwd on ac- count of having beaus than to be on gecount of not having them.” Then teacher smiled.
