Like the proverbial ostrich with her head stuck in the sand to avoid the present danger, so we stand with all but our attention exposed to the threatening winds of change. We groan at the effort required to gain even a working knowledge of our social ills; so, the ability to defend our feeble opinions in places of little consequence hardly seems worth the effort.
