Man had not yet become a sociable animal When the children grew up, they married and set up housekeeping in caves of their own. By and by there were quite a lot of inhabited caves Life in that era was not complex. All you had to do to provide for your family was to go out and hit a dinosaur beaks a stone ax. If your stroke was swift and true, you and yours ate the dinosaur—raw If it wasn’t, the dinosaur jate you in a similar uncooked condition. As there was no cooking to be done, nor clothes to | be mended—our forbears wore durable coats of tan—the | ; wife was saved a heap of bot! ify WAS not a talkative age There wasn't much to talk about Everybody minded his own business. This was Anarchy pure and simple But one day my boy met your boy, and your boy said:““My father can lick ) My boy reported the taunt to me, and I laid for you down by the still pool, v Jat sunset.

Or I killed you. It really doesn’t matter much which. Re- |prisals swift and terrible were taken. Your family and mine fought many bloody and sanguinary battles on the path, |\which was community property. Only we didn’t know then there was such a thing as a community. But by and by, after other families had become involved in the dispute, the cooler heads among our people got together, and said: “Really, this sort of thing must not go on. We must have order on the path.” AND GOVERNMENT WAS BORN! oe Vere os ea. is a scheme to regulate your relations with your neighbors, The path became a street, and a policeman patrolled it. He pinched us for our sins upon it and told the judge. And the judge sent us to jail My, grandson kept company with, your granddaughter, and evenings they strolled the street and spooned.. Where- upon the old fogies were horrified, and put WWrough an ordinance providing for lighting the street, and another mak- ing spooning a misdemeanor So many people used the street that it became littered and dirty. So we set a white-wings to work cleaning it. |By now we lived in houses instead of caves, and one of the houses burned down. We saw we had to have a fire department j I raised an awful holler when you dumped your garbage in my back yard, but the judge couldn’t find a law cover- ling the case. So we passed a few health laws and started a health department. | Without knowing it, we were fixing a peck of trouble for ourselves. We, who had got along pretty well without laws, now developed a mania for making laws. We passed so many laws we couldn't remember them all, so we put them in books Everybody wanted a job with the city. We found in THE PEOPLE an easy boss. We were shocked when we learned that the policeman and the garbage collector were grafting, but by and by we got used to the idea and did a little ourselves Then, along came Lincoln Steffens, leading a small but fearless army of muckrakers, and called our attention to the shame of our city.
