We do no~ wish to be put in the class of th~ utter iconoclasts, for we believe that constant agitation for better things will eventually make a dent, at least, in the selfishness that has ruled the world from the begin- ning. But our experience makes us doubtful of the thoroughgoing sin- cerity in a lot of the talk about expense reduction. ,because generally zhat talk applies to cutting off the other fellow while leaving our per- sonal interests alone.

Much unhappiness has been caused in this world, characters ruined and great damage done by assertions based on no other ground than "it is said." No great edifice has ever been erected to humanity that has not had its detractors, non-helpers and wreckers. It seems to be a mean trait in human nature the world over. It is always added to in times when gen- eral distress is rampant and when the greatest need of the "milk of hu- man kindness" is demanded.
