More than mere railroad experience, it ever thorough, is’required in the man- gement of the Alaska Railroad. It is a job for an enthusiast, an empire builder, a regular he- man—in short, a picneer. That type of man will [bend his energies toward developing the railroad belt realizing that industry brings people and that population in the railroad district will wipe lout raiiroad deficits in mighty short order.

(New York World.) ATLANTIC CITY, N. J, Nov. 12.— Speaking here tonight before the New Jersey State Teachers’ Association, Lor- ado Taft, sculptor, lecturer and author, condemned present-day Ameicran life as casual and without background. “Our homes,” he said, “‘seem to be on casters like our furniture—ever moving, ever changing. Our recreations are hectic, at forty or fifty miles an hour; our music is jazz; our drama, the movie; our literature, the strident daily. To the other arts we are practically im- mune.” Thus a special dispatch to our neighbor the Times. And despite our admiration for Mr. Taft, we must quarrel with the whole thesis it presents. It is common enough these days, to be sure, to hear the life we lead denounced for the mad pace at which it capers. But just whe is this mad pace? “Our recreations are hectic,” says Mr. Taft, “at fotry or fifty miles an hour.” Exactly so. But you find, after you think about it a little bit, that while the automobiles run forty or fifty miles an hour, and the trains even faster, the people in them are lolling on cushions half asleep. After three hours of rid- ing in an automobile, what do the passengers ask the driver? Do they ask him to stop for a few minutes so they can catch their breath? They do not. They ask him to stop for a few minutes 50 they can get out and stretch. | A similar discrepancy between the appearance jand the reality can be discovered in other phases of the supposed hectic existence. The orchestra is jazz, but the tune it plays, as often as not, is a slow blues that makes the ‘‘Chocolate Soldier” waltz seem like a hoedown by com- parison The drama is a movie, but the chair you sit in is softly upholstered, and twice as large as the chair you sit in at a regular play. The big presses eat up tons of paper every hour, but the newspapers carry whole pages of bedtime stories It is a mistake, it seems to us, to confuse the speed of the machine with the speed of the human being it serves. We even offer the theory that these machines which hum so dizzily, far from having increased the pace of modern existence, have actually decreased it, by giving the citizenry more time to dawdle over its coffee. It isn’t likely that those Phiadelphia cops got so rich merely by following the precepts of Ben Franklin.—(Cincinnati Enquirer.) - Nowadays a man js entitled to life, liberty and the right to vote as his wife tells him to do. —(Atlanta Constitution.)
