THOMPSON SETON i | | | » Many Americans whe) tive’ read his books about} animal life will regret to} Wetr of he passing of Ernest | nO ae Seton, world | uthor and ‘authority on Indian lore and wildlife. The author: died at the age of eighty - six at his home near Santa’ Fe, Mex- ico. He had completed his forty-second book, but his Wild Animais« I Have Known,” published in 1898, is probably unequalled by any other work of its type. If some of the readers of j this article have not read Wild Animals I Have Known,” they have a treat coming to them and should take time to make acquaint- snee with the animal char- acters depicted by a man} who knew them and, ap-| parently, loved them. It's about time for Key West to wake up and doj omething for itself. We still | are in the talking stage. Excellent achievement is usually the result of patient and intelligent effort, plus hard work. There is no easy way up the ladder of suc- cess. We laugh at the ignorance and superstition of men who loved many years before us and never stop to wonder how foolish we will look, in the judgment of those who will live in 2146. IN THE MIDST OF LIFE ..- Many truths in the Bible pertain to life. Job spoke of his life. speeding with the swiftness of a “weaver’s shuttle,” and élsewhere it is said that, “In the midst of life we dre in death.” Fact is, death is only a short dis- tance around the corner for all of us, regardless of how long we may live. Let us say you have 100 years more to live. When you come to the end of that time, you will be able to look back over that time, assuming you are mentally sound, in a flash of your mind, and life will seem piti- fully short to you. Here, again, a Biblical truth is applicable: “A thou- sand years, after they have passed and gone, are but as Yet, despite those truths, we are shocked many a time by the death of a person in the bloom of youth, such as the young woman who lost her life in an automobile crash at Cudjoe on Sunday night. We get no comfort or con- solation in reasoning that ere long she would have died, as all of us will die. Had her life spanned 100 years, that time would have | been but a flicker of an eye- 'Jash in the scheme of eter- nity. = * Eternity! How often we use that word without a full realization of its meaning. Think of a million, a billion, a trillion years from now, and yet, when that time “has passed and gone,” eter- nity will be no nearer than it is today. Still, as was remarked, that reasoning or philosophy does not placate us in the imidst of the death of a young person, particularly when she is cut down while engaged “in e business,” that is, returning home from a Youth. for Christ rally she had attend- ed in Miami. The passage of years usually increases the wisdom of the departed. Tomorrow,’ whehe; riyes, is always thy th i day:of the year. Théf’ is no tomorrow, for when _ it ar- rives it is*again today. To- morrow is a convenient ex- cuse for procrastimation. Charl S.. Riggan, ob- serving his 104th’ birthday, says that pretty «flowers, pretty women and- goog eat- ing will carry a man through the world if anything will. Presumably, money in plen- ty was available to afford these essentials. GOOD ELECTION PLAN The cross-filing system in California permits candi- dates to file in the primari of both major political par- ties and if both parties nomi- nate the same man there will be no contest in the gen- eral election. This happened in ten of Californiz twenty - three Congressional Districts and also in the case of Governor Earl Warren who is current- ly running as the Democratic as well as the Republican nominee. ; ' Despite the dissatisfac- tion of some politicians with cross-filing, we see little ob- jection to the practice. If a Governor of a State, or a Congressman, can do well enough to win the approval of the voters of both parties, he ought to be kept in of- fice. Certainly, in the case of Governor Warren, if the opposing party is sa ied with the man in office and prefers him to its own aspir- ants, the fact is evidence of duty well done. After all, the purpose of an election in a free coun- try is not to guarantee a dog- fight between parties. The system is designed to give the voters an opportunity to select the man, or woman, of their choice for public of- fice. If the voting members of two parties coincide in the election of a candidate and he becomes practically assured of re-election, the} her Father's; (“THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Your Horoscope WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, —You are jovial ard sympathetic, perhaps inclined to be rather self- indulgent and may be liable to fits of indiscretion.
