The Element of Chance Human progress might be otherwise defined as human success in minimizing the element of chance. In science there is substitution of exactitude for the primitive accidents of the rule of thumb, just as in philosophy and mornls, truth and untruth, right and wrong, are being unswathed from their veils of un certainty and set clearly in opposition to ench other. In other words, the gnmbling spirit in life is less and less countenanced, and gaming, once fash ionable, is now taboo even in the most innocent forms.—New Orleans Times- Picayune.
