Register complaints vefore 8 * clock The Superior Mind We must bear and forbear. That, it can be supposed, i what Horace means when he recommends to us to study car fully and inquire diligently what will best promote quil life—not to be always agitated-by fruitless desires and fears and hopes for things which, after all, are not worth yery much, This is why a narre vy mind often is valuable to its owner. A narrow mind, mind you, is not necessarily au inferior one. A varrow mind is a limited one. That limitation makes for happiness, has grown to be a proverbial expression. The hn- man mind can be efficient at all only by picking out what to attend to and ignoring all else—by narrowing the point of view. It is because the human mind is essentially partial that this is so. Unless it does narrow its viewpc i strength it has is dispersed, and it loses its way ¢ The superior mind is, of course, distinguished by absorbs. what it It was Herbert Spencer, who observed, that just as texture, and odor the superior animal ing food, and swallowing only things which nizable matter; so the superior mind, aided all intellectual scent, passes by multitudes of unorganizable facts, but quickly detects full of significance, and takes them in as materials o which cardinal truths may be elaborated. is guided in coutain much or; The less developed intel unable to decompose these more complex faets and ite their components. and baving, therefe no appetites for them, devour with vidity facts which are mostly valueless, and out of the vast niass absorb very little that helps to form general conceptions. Concentrated diets furnished by the experiments of the physicist, the investigations of the political economist, the analyses Of the psychologist, is intolerable to them, indigest- ible by them, but, instead they swallow with mliness the trivial details of tabletalk, the personalities of shionable life, the garbs f the police and divorce courts, while their reading, in addition to trashy novels, includes memoirs and mediocrities, volumes of gossiping correspondence, with an onal history. from which they carry away a few facts but batffes and the doings of conspicuous men. By such minds, this kind of intellectual provender is alor ailable; and to feed them on a higher kind would be as improetieahte as to feed a cow on meat. Uniform Traffic Law , The draft for a uniform state vehicular trafiie ia under consideration by the Conference of Commissioners Uniform State Laws is the product of a great deal of thoy and consideration. In its original form, the measure was studied and analyzed by the conference of a year ago; aud since theu it has been subjected to a number of changes and niodifications as a result of further as an outcome of the interchange i s which took place at Secretary Hoover's national traffic conference. Before they conclude their present sessions, the commissioners should be able to evolve a model bill that will serve as a foundation for a nation-wide system of traffic regulation. There is no doubt about the need for such a piece of leg lation. At present, the extreme variance between the traffic regulations of the various states of the union is creating a dis tinctly confusing and perilous situation. It is humanly impos sible for any person motoring from north to south or from east to west in this country to have even a hazy knowledge of the traffic rules with which he must comply en route. He cannot be familiar with all the varying signal systems and speed regula tions. And as interstate touring increases the problem of the tarnsient is becoming more and more a distinctly aente Amer ican problem ousideration and also A great d of the trouble will be eliminated with but little difficulty, if a uniform bill which will commend itself to the legislatures of the states and will be really adaptable to apply to all parts of the country can be drawn up. It scar ly seems possible that many legislatures will long r a measure in face of the obvious advantages to be accepting it. Tn the meantime, the indivdual states can be doing a good work by making the local traffic regulations within their bor- ders conform to a single standard as far as may be possible. ject. such ained from 2=39.00 } 450 than 0 day from bubonic plague, cholera, yellow fever and the other jendemic diseases of the world’s cesspools mmerce itself would languish while our prosperity—tn? deed our necessities in the way of raw products for our world-depend- ent industries—would disappear if anything like the old medieval eweep aged cur great work shook Europe «in fiddle Ages very ship operat tor fears what is that we should guard at our gates to world | intercourse.
