That it was blac"k magic wiu'ihl probably have been their only explanation. To be able to sit at a lillle instrument in an outlying cabin far from the haunts of men and tune in on concerts, addresses, educational programs, political speech or religion?, services and to hear them as plainly almost as if present is really a most wonderful thing. A thousand miles is no object and a few hundred miles is like being just on the other side of the fence. With such a dieoery already to our credit, what may not the possibilities be, especially in the region of the mind. It is there that new discoveries are likely. Companionship As Time Waster. Companionship is one of the greatest boons and it may become-a tjmt' waster ,aid a curse. Like everything lse it should be used m jjihjleralioii.' . ' ' ' The. 'tendency of people js to herd together." They gather1-!!! large 'cities or they group themselves in villages. The hermit, who lives i to 'himself, is the exception from the rule. Those who give way too much to the grouping tendency are following their animal instincts and they do nut gel much farther than the animal. It is those who show individuality (lint excel. To gel down to cases, serious study and serious thought are carried on apart from the crowd. A good book can best lie enjoyed in the privacy of one's own room and thought concen tration i well nigh impossible when light talk is going on. The individual who would excel and who would expect to stand out from his fellows intellectually or spiritually must spend much lime alone. Much conversation that is carried o'n is of such a natim that it does little to stimulate the intellect or the imagination. II is deadening rather than enlivening. It has a levelling down effect. On ttie oilier hand conversation may be strictly educa lional and uplifting . It may have a stimulating effect. Value Of Reading Depends On Type Of Books. The value of reading depends very largely on the type of book read.- To read a clever book is to put oneself in touch with a master mind but to read some of the trash that goes out from the printing presses is deadening, enervating anil deteriorating in us tendency. lime iievoled to a great deal of the periodic lileralure of the day is not only wasted but it has a distinctly demoralizing effect. Vhi)e we do not necessarily have to turn to Hie heavv lit eratu.re of former generations, we can select lhat which is worth winie irom modern writings. Hooks, like friend, should lie careiuiiy iiioseii. ;, . Much Nearer Route To Peace River District.
