G. in Winnipeg nee Press) Because few Of us realize the fin- portance of tradition in our lives, most of us, if we stopped to count the number of things we do because. our parents and. grandparents did them, would be astonished at the to- tal. Men go through life. parting, their hair on the left side, women on the right side, without rhyme or rea- son. Through. peace and war, pros- perity and depression, men's shoes conta;n six holes On each side of the tongue. Since the dawn of history, men. have been plowing the ground ard shaving their faces without quite knowing why. . Despite all the new-fangled ways of ao'ng things, men. continue to plow the ground. Th do it because it has always done. Their fathers did it. Thei grandfathers did it. No- body questi ned the wisdom of it. It v:as sonnethin that was taken for granted the w rld over. it was, that is, until yeste day, so to speak. An Am an farm expert a few years o -was watching a drouth I Ftricken wheat field wilting by the minute. But he happened to notice, that around the field, where the plow bad not gone and where random seeds of grain taken root, that the grass and the *heat seemed unaffect- ed by the heat. He asked himself the eternal "Why?" Why did wheat in the cultivated area and survive where it should not have grown at all? Gould it be that, ,despite centuries of human experience, it- was wrong to plow furrows,. in the land? The expert started experiments. He, got others to do the same, and out of all these experiments a conclusion was distilled. It was that plowing was v7rang, because plowed land allowed the sun to draln the moisture from the soil. Federal agricultural author - Ares in the United States are now pretty well sold on this conclusion and numerous experiments are under way to discover and develop better methods of cultivating the land. _ Now there is very dose connec- tion between plowing lurid and shav- ing faces. Men shave their faces be- cause it is the 'custom to •clo so. What's more, they go through an in- tricate rigmarole in the process with- out knowing why they do it., They apply unguents to the skin, they lath- er and sop the face, they shave off the whiskers.77apply more unguents. All the while they curse the day they ever etarted „shaving and yearn to have done with the busine`ss. forever. And why do they do all these things? Berause ,their fathers and grand- fathers did them or had barbers do them forthem. Few men ever question the wisdom of the motions they go through. A Colleague of •ours did, however,. and; because be did we can now shave in comfort. He had a tender skin and ,nence employed more creams and salves than usual. Yet the more salves he used, the more tender, his skin became and the more he suffer- ed in shaving. So one day, in a' burst of impatience, he fired.•all his soap, his lotions, his ••salves, toilet water and 'powder through the win: doe- of a Pullman wash -room. If the junk seftened the whiskers, he rem soned, it aoftened*the skin more. So he washed his face in cold water and started, to shave. It Was a painful experience. The -next day, being bereft of all his paraphernalia lie had to shave the same way. It was somewhat less painful. The third day was less pain- ftil than the second. By the end of ten days he was able to shave with- out discomfort..., He had, no further troubfe With a tender skin: His meth- od toughened his skin and shaving or him is no longer an ordeal.' We confess we fbund this story hard to believe.' Yet every time We shaved we thought of 'It. To get the thing out of mind we tried the ex- periment It *es successful beyond 'Imagination, '1! • wits -se suceesefut indeed,- that We have ,become scene - thing of e, b'ore' on- the. elIbjeet 4ed Peatet' itittds of inoffensive pe6Ple into ;trying the •eold-water shalfhig system:, It takes a good deal ,of prverAp aPply a razor to an unlath- ered iltisalVed face.
