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-
