I t is true we do not iiealize the ideal; not even a single person-personifies that realization. 1&AB therefore not surprising -thatTsbciety, a collection of persons,\a necessary maze of compro- mises, cannot realize it. But that i t has ideals, that they revolve in a sys- tem that makes for steady advance of them is the first thing. Yet true as this is, the day has not arrived when any economic or social system will function and last if founded upon al- truism alone. With the growth of ideals through education, with the higher realization of freedom, of justice, of humanity, of service, the selfish impulses become less and less dominant, and if we ever reach the millennium, they will disap- pear in the aspirations and satisfac- tions of pure altruism. But for the next several generations we dare not abandon self-interest as a motive force to leadership and to production, lest we die. The will-o'-the-wisp of all breeds of socialism is that they contemplate a motivation of human animals by altru- ism alone\. I t necessitates a bureau- cracy of the entire jjopulajtion, in which, having obliterated the economic stimulation of each member, the fine graduation of character and ability are to be arranged in relative authority by ballot or more likely b y a Tammany Hall or a Bolshevist party, or some other form of tyranny. The proof of the futility of these ideals as a stimu- lation to the development and activity of the individual does not lie alone in the ghastly failure of Russia, but it also lies in our own failure in at- tempts at nationalized industry. Likewise the basic foundation of autocracy, whether i t be class govern- ment or capitalization in the sense that a few men through unrestrained con- trol of property determine the welfare of great numbers, is as far apart fronr- the rightful expression of American individualism as the two poles. The will-o'-the-wisp of autocracy in any form is that it supposes that the good Lord endowed a special few with all the divine attributes. I t contemplates one human animal dealing to the oth- er human animals his just share of earth, of glory, and of immortality. The proof of the futility of these ideas in the development of the world does not lie alone in the grim failure of Germany, but it lies in the damage to our moral and social fabric from those who have sought economic domination in America, whether employer or em- ployee. We in America have had too much experience of life to fool ourselves into pretending that all men are equal in ability, in character, in intelligence, in ambition. That was part of the claptrap of the French Revolution. We have grown to understand that all we can hope to assure to the individual through government is liberty, justice, intellectual welfare, equality of oppor- tunity, and stimulation to service. It is in maintenance of a society fluid to these human qualities that our that our progress i s i n so hige a measure due t o the fact that with our increased means of communication these rare individuals are today able to spread their influence over so en-' larged a number of lesser capable ininds as_to iavft increased, their po-- teney a million-fold. In truth, the vast- ly greater productivity of the world with actually tess physical labor is due to the wider spread of their influ- ence through the discovery of these facilities. And they can arise solely j through the selection that conies from •the free-running mills of competition. Tney must.be free to rise from the mass; they must be given the attrac- tion of premiums to effort. Leadership is a quality of the in- dividual. It is the individual alone who can function in the world of in- tellect and in the field of leadership. If democracy is to secure its authori- ties in morals, religion, and statesman- ship, it must stimulate leadership from its own mass. Human leadership can- not be replenished by selection like queen bees, by divine right or bureau- cracies, but by the free rise of ability, character and intelligence. Even so, leadership cannot, no mat- ter how brilliant, carry progress far ahead of the average of the mass of- individual units. Progress of the na- tion is the sum of progress in its in- dividuals. Acts and ideas that lead to progress are born out of the worn!? of the individual mind, not out of the mind of the crowd. The crown only fedls: it has no mind of its own which can plan. The crowd is credulous, it destroys, it consumes, i t hates, and it dreams—but it never builds. I t is one of the most profound and important of exact psychological truths that man in the mass does not th'ink_but only feels. The mob functions only in a world of emotion. The demagogue feeds on mob emotions and his leadership is the leadership of emotion, not the leader- ship of intellect and progress. Popu- pofemotion,nottheleader-ieadersh 1 ase lar desires are no criteria to the real need; they can be determined only by deliberative consideration, by educa- tion, by constructive leadership.

The \Wonder Ball\ will be unrolled frequently visits in Marion, is ill with individualism departs from the indi- scarlet fever at the General Hospital, vidualism of Europe. There can be no Mr. and Mrs. M. Bruce Potter and rise for the individual through the frozen strata of classes, or of castes, and no stratification can take place in a mass livened by the free stir of its particles. This guarding of our in- dividualism against stratification in- sists not only in preserving in the so- cial solution an equal opportunity for the able and ambitious to- rise from the bottom; it also insists that the sons of the successful shall not by any mere right of birth or-favor con- tinue to occupy their fathers' places of power against the rise of a new generation in process of coming up from the bottom. The pioneers of our American individualism had the good sense not to reward Washington and Jefferson and Hamilton with heredi- tary dukedoms and fixtures in landed estates, as Great Britain rewarded Marlborough and Nelson. Otherwise our American fields of opportunity would have been clogged with long generations inheriting their fathers' privileges -without their fathers' ca- pacity for service. That our system has avoided the es- tablishment and domination of class has a\ significent proof in the present administration in Washington. Of the twelve men comprising the President, vice-president, and cabinet, nine have earned their own way in life without economic inheritance, and eight of them started with manual labor. If we examine the impulses that carry us forward, none is so potent for progress as the yearning for in- dividual self-expression, the desire for creation of something. Perhaps the greatest human happiness flows from personal achievement, there lies the great urge of the constructive instinct of mankind. But it can only thrive in a society where the individual has liberty and stimulation to achievement. Nor does the community progress ex- cept through its participation in these Mrs. Joanna Merson returned from at the meeting of the Mission Circle Williamson Thursday, and is again liv- a t the Baptist Church, a t 3:30 this ing in her home in the Adrain Engel- Thursday afternoon, (Hollowing the sen house, on Palmyra street. , meeting of the Ladies' Aid a t 2:30.

These do no t lie in agreements, in organizations, in insti- tutions, in masses, or in groups. They abide alone in the individual mind and heart. Production both of mind and hand rests upon impulses in each individ- ual. These impulses are made of the varied forces of original instincts, mo- tives and acquired desires. Many of these are destructive and must be re- strained through moral leadership and authority of the law and be eliminated finally by education. All are modified by a vast fund of experience and a vast plant and equipment o f civiliza- tion which we pass on with increments to each succeeding generation. The inherited instincts of self-pres- ervation, acquisitiveness, fear, kind- ness, hate, curiosity, desire for self- expression, for power, for adulation, that we carry over from a thousand of generations must, for good or evil, be comprehended in a workable sys- tem embracing our accumulation of multitudes of achievements, experiences and equipment.

It began last year with violent opposition to the Forn- ney-Smoot bill in order to kill domes- tic sugar production. When Claus Spreckles, the great sugar refiner, re- turned from Europe a short time ago he declared that the rise in sugar is due solely to the sugar gamblers. He ought to have added the other element of enemies. . Whe,n the Democrats came t o power in 1913, the beet sugar industry had made vast strides ^ toward meeting market demands that the cane sugar refiners joined with the party in power to put sugar on the free list and kill the domestic industry. Then the war came on and with our country re- duced to imported sugar supplies the price was boosted to near thirty cents a pound, but even then the Democrats had to be driven from power before we could have full relief throught pro- ' tection I I t takes time for protection to en- able domestic sugar to be produced in quantity sufficient to hold the price down and give the people the benefit , of low prices. The 'higher the price of imported sugar and the more exacting the combination of American refiners who control five-sixths of the Cuban crop, the swifter the development of beet sugar production and the more compelling that fact will be to keep down imported sugar rates. The duty on imported sugar is one and a quarter cents a pound. It is not honest, or rational at least, to contend that such a rate, of duty: justifies an advance of four or five times as much sin retail price. This is especially true -when it i s considered that the tariff took effect in September but sugar prices were unaffected until the corner was created in March. Every ton of domestic sugar pro- duced makes one less ton for the re- finer to handle at extra cost to the consumer. That is why the importer and the refiner are implacable enemies I of sugar protection at home, and why J every New York newspaper is openly for free sugar or friendly to it for selfish reasons. —From The Union-Gazette.
