THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, 'APRIL.11,.1990. ‘A Few Items We Hope Mr. Hays . Has: Taken Care of in His “Code E E Pety EEE ‘iit i g E Deeds That Support Optimism ‘The finest things of life, the things that give us proof pf the grandeur of human existence, if they do not actu- ‘lly escape the limelight are continually getting into ‘public notice by a mere scratch. I is the mean things of the world that get into the Bpotlight in @ steadily flowing stream of social sewerage. Mhat is, immorality, crime, poverty, degeneracy, suffer- {ng, tragedies, disasters, and corruption furnish the Wally news, and the sum of human follies every day is tore than enough to give pessimism title deed to hu- mmanity. But every now and then—and largely from the ranks bf the soldiers of science—there emanates some deed of Bacrifice or heroism that tends to restore the balance which optimism claims for faith in mankind, the world Bnd life. In Baltimore there is a doctor named Frederick Henry Baetjer. He has been « famous X-ray scientist for 30 years, His studies have helped enormously in the use of X-rays in medicine;.a great many people are alive and in good health now who would have been dead if it had not been for Dr. Baetjer. But all of this has cost him something. He has been a jearried.on too enthusiastically. He has suffered so much, 28 oe: : Early Rising in ‘April It is only in the spring of the year that is is possible to look with any favor upon the practice of getting up early in the morning. At all other seasons the thought of staying overlong in bed is a thought to delight the’ soul, .But-in April things are a bit different, ‘There is a magic in the thin. sunlight, and the earlier in the day you tackle it the more |. magical it becomes. It is actually possible to get out of bed ahead-of time, voluntarily, Of course, it is quite evident ‘that nature is in 8 year- long conspiracy to fool us. Still, the process isn’t un-| pleasant. And in April—due, perhaps, to the long dis- illusionment of winter—most of us are ready, even eager, to be fooled. So it is that there is a good deal to be gained by get- ting up early on an April morning. The sunlight, slant- ing down the street and across the yards, transforms everything it touches. It strikes a row of perfectly or- dinary houses and turns them into thystié dwellings like those gleaming towers and battlements that one séés, in. dreams, on distant and unattainable shores. You can’t recognize your own street, It becomés exciting, haunted, miraculous, During the few moments of dawn it is a place where anything could: happen. In fact, an April sunrise gives you the impression that the world has just been created. Any kind of a fresh start can be made. You have just arrived. There are no mistakes to undo, Everything is waiting for you.- ‘You can make the world into precisely the delightful, Place you have always dreamed of. f ‘This, of course, is a strong delusion. It passes: when’| the dawn passes, and long before noon the cares of every day have driven it far out of our minds, . But it is worth getting, just the same. é For we live, after all, by delusions, Thinking of what the world might be, what it ought to be, helps us to en- dure it as it really is. If it were not for such glimpses H of the unattainable as April mornings give us we would speedily forget that we came into. this univerge, trailing clouds of-glory. We would be convinced that our go-get- ters and our hustlers have the last word, and we would forget to be dissatisfied with things as they are. ‘weren't meant to be contented. Neither happiness nor accomplishment lie that way. ‘ Few.of our large bronze memorials have been erected to men who had any definite idea whether pie a la mode should be managed with a fork, Dietary experts say that as a matter of fact a person : Today Is. the “‘Afiniversary of NAPOLEON'S ABDICATION On April'11, tant, Napolessl Bona-| ¢| acquired.”"—Henry acai — may become intoxicated on water.
