The wav we make progress is not by jumps, but b\ steps, not by going from evil to good, but by going from evil to lessei evil. So the evil of otday may be the discarded good of yes terday. Slavery is an evil not countenanced in any civilized land today. Yet at one time it was good. It was a distinct moral ad vance over the old practice of murdering in cold blood all cap tives taken in warfare. Prize fighting is looked upon as an evil now and almost all of the states have laws'aimed to prevent it. But a century ago prize fighting was a distinct advance over brutality of the sports of former times. Even such a fight as one in 1925 when two men fought for 75 rounds with naked fists and the loser had to be put to bed with 50 leeches on him was a step up from the spectacles such as throwing ferocious dogs into a lions' cage and watching them tear each other to pieces which had delighted the people at a previous date. Some of the superstitions which were connected with re ligion in the past are now evils and repel men of greater in telligence instead of frightening them into good conduct. They are an evil now, but at one time for more primitive people whom they kept from doing wrong they were a good. Duelling today is a crime. At one time it was a good be cause it was an advance over past customs. It gave both parties a fair chance instead of being a cowardly assassination. It sub stituted honor for ambuscade and so at the time was a step ahead. Today we have laws against beating wives. Wife beaters are jailed and dealt with summarily. Yet a century ago in Eng land wife beating was considered the right of a husband. A man might beat his wife within an inch of her life and go un punished so long as she didn't die. But if she died he was treat ed as a murderer. • That condition of affairs is hard to understand today. But it was an advance over the past when, in ancient Turkey, the husband had the power of life and death over the inmates of his harem. It is as true that the good of today may be the evil of to morrow as it is that the evil of today was the good of the'past. The test of the times is not but whether those evils are les the past; whether they are a st LIBERTY ST. NEWS Forest City, April 25.—Mr. and Mrs. G. G.
