of going. I am back to work - The same damned old fool grind - probably my last winter at this job. Have a number of interesting things and am so busy I don't get a chance to think about myself very much. Which is good. I am to go to N.Y. the last of the month to debate with Scott Nearing - the poor simp - on the question "Is there a law of progress in the universe" - which there aint. I debated with him a year ago on Optimism and pessimism he was very serious and earnest - like life. I did nothing but poke fun at him and the Optimists. I would hate to be so damned serious a a serious wounded Optimist - O yes here is one I got off to Zona Gale the other day its good isnt it. "The man is a belligerent as a non resistant." any how she laughed - being one And Sunday I am to debate here with Prof Case on "Has the Human Race got through" - which it has and I can prove it biologically - phylosophically historically and every old way. am interested that you are turning to religion or at least turning ? to ?
