We Arc Living In the Best
Age Since the World
Began
By Dr. HENRY MEAD, Fellow of the Royal Colletfc of Physicians
anil Surgeons In London
CHERE NEVER WAS A TIME IN THE HISTORY OF MAN
WHEN THERE WA8 SO WIDE AN INTELLIGENCE, 80 GREAT
AND VIVID AN INTEREST IN THE THINGS OF THE MIND
A3 THERE IS TODAY.
Thero lias never been so broml a distribution of intelligence, and I
am euro that nevor eineo tho Eecond century in lionio has thero boon
SO BROAD A DISTRIBUTION OF liATMMXKSS. Indeed, of
all tho times in all tho history of mankind I think that tho present ago
bears tho closest rosemblanco of those days of tho Itomnn empire.
Thoy wero not yot tho days of dissolution, hut they wcro days of
decadence. And so is this.
And I do not seo why that should bo nnything to wonder at or ox
claim nguinst. Tho DKOAY OF OXK CIVILIZATION IS NOT
SUCH A TKRRIRLK THING. Even if it is followod by a period
of chaos it is tho way of lifo and development that ono civilization
should decay and go to pieces.
Certainly, however, this is NOT A STRKXUOUS AGE. This
is a eoft age. It is an age in which thero is a great deal of overwork, a
great deal of fntiguo and neurasthenia. Hut it is SOFT for all that.

LOOK AT THE PEOPLE ALL ABOUT U8. DO THEY LOOK A8
IF THEY LIVED IN A HARD AGE OR A HARD NATION? YOUR WO

LOVELY YOUNQ GIRLS TROOPING OFF TO 8CHOOL THERE 13
NOTHING 8TRENUOU8 ABOUT THEM. OVERRU8HED THEY MAY
BE MANY OF THEM ARE. BUT THEIR LIFE I8N'T WHAT YOU
COULD CALL HARD, IT CAN'T COMPARE TO THE LIFE OF WOMEN (
IN AQE8 PAST. IT IS E88ENTIALLY A 80FT LIFE.

Tuesday morning nt Chapel tho
President preached on the text, "Fol

Is composed of those who have a pur- 1

In a life that is aimless, Such char

senator Is not ccntent to retire but
.vlshes continuance of political power.
Vet It does not satisfy. The tntlHfact

themselves to the welfare of
humanity.
The subject Tuesday night was,
"Christ, Tho Sinner's Friend," In
which decision was urged upon the
hearers,
Tlie mid-day services at '1: 15 by
Itev. C. S. Knight have Iwen mokt

Today will bo observed as tin
mid-week Sabbath. I'rof. Hubbard is
to preach 'n the Chapel at i: 10, Mr.
Knight nt 2:13, the President at 7:0d.

t miry should force the announcement
of Sherley Is not easily apparent.
This much, however, seems to be
clear: The senatorial race will lie n
thre-cornered affair, and as usual
the interests of the state will like
