BROADWAY IN THE SIXTIES 1
I. M. Alexander, 90 years old and a
New Yorker, explains the whole thing. He
says that it is safer to cross Broadway now \
than it was in the sixties. The police are
on the job today, but in those forgotten
years it was every cabby, stage driver and
pedestrian for himself. From this one im
mediately deduces that pedestrians are so
often run dayn not because automobilists
are more brutal or careless than their an
cestors, but because the automobiles them
selves are so frequent. To those who like
to think well of the human race this is a
mildly encouraging thought.
LORD KITCHENER
The Prince of Wales on Monday un
veiled a monument of Lord Kitchener on
the famous Horse Guards parade, but he
could not unveil the rather fantastic mys
tery which is being erected, little by little,
to commemorate the field marshal’s tragic
vanishing from view. Strangely enough, a |
considerable part of the British public re
solutely refuses to accept the official ac
count of the sinking of the Hampshire, and
myth-making on the subject has become a
favorite sport during the last ten years.
The rallying point of the mystery-seekers
is the persistent refusal of the admirality
to publish documents embodying the offi
cial investigation; and they have even gone
so far as to form an organization to keep
the matter alive with periodical demands
for publication. The Kitchener myths, ap
parently, have little or nothing to feed on;
but that does not prevent their growing
year by year.
NEW YORK’S BIGNESS
Multitudes will understand Mr. Van
Dyke’s explanation of why he is leaving:
“I love New York and I hate New York.”
fers superb opportunities. But at a price,
fers supberb opportunities. But at a price.
It has power, bigness, magic, beauty. So
have Niagara, the Yellowstone and a rol
ling mill. It scares even its own sons away
to more restful places where there is home
life and neighborliness and “thousands of
songbirds in the surrounding valleys.”
The exodus is in progress and Terius
Van Dyke joins himself to the dissatisfied
multitudes looking for a promised land.
PLENTY OF TIME
After a United States senator has re
paired his primary fences and made his!
campaign for reelection and attended to]
the private demands of his constituents and
met the important social obligations of his
office he may spend his spare time in study
ing the public business.
A TIP FROM TEXAS
Well, then, if Pilsudski doesn’t want
to be president he might keep it in the fami
ly by letting his wife be it.
Once the girls used expensive outfits to
bum wood; now they merely pack a cigar
ette and let nature take its course.
