THERE ARE OTHER GOOD PLACES
We used to think and write that Alaskans should re
main in the North country all the time, not to go Outside
for their vacations or for over the winter.
We have changed our minds.
If we could afford it, we would do the same thing. A
change of pasture is good for everyone. If the people in
the States are willing to spend their hard-earned mone^
traveling up here to see what kind of humans we are
why shouldn't Alaskans be permitted to do likewise?
None at all.
Some of the energy reflected in the States could well
be utilized in this Territory and on the other hand Alaska
has much to impart to people in the States.
Though rather hard on the pocket-book, travel is good
for the soul; our soul is, in bad shape, we are informed.
How about yours? Let's go!
BOGUS REFORMERS
No one will deny that now and then a real reformer
arises who is able to point out some social abuse that needs
attention, and endeavors through legitimate methods and
with sincerity of purpose to accomplish the reform
sought.
On the other hand, it is evident to every thoughtful
observer that a large percentage of 'wOuld-be reformers
are merely chronic meddlers and notoriety seekers, who
have no honest desire to be of service to society, but are
only disturbers and mischief-makers.
Brand Whitlock, former American Ambassador to
Belgium, takes the measure of these bogus reformers in
a recent magazine article, in which he declares: “Most
reforms are undertaken not to reform or improve any
body or to make anybody happier, but to gratify a love of
interference. Incidentally they may gratify a love of no
toriety also, or provide someone with a job as secretary
But at bottom they are inspired almost wholly by the love
of interference.”
Due to the gullibility of the public these loud-mouthed
and altogether offensive persons usually encounter no dif
ficulty in enlisting the ‘support of a sufficient number of
people to enable them to exploit themselves and their fool
ish schemes for a time at least. When one “movement”
plays out they invent another and so continue their role
indefinitely.
If the time and money devoted to the glorification of
these social parasites were applied to really worthwhile
purposes much good might be accomplished. The profes
sional reformer is about the sorriest type of citizen with
which a long-suffering public has to contend.
Knowledge makes men humble; true genius is ever
modest.
Dignity is a peculiar manifestation. It is the stock
in trade of fools.
