ISN'T LIFE: FECOMING TOO AUTOMATIC?

News comes from Spain that an automatic chess player has been is. vented, and that it is warranted to beat every master of the game writes Mr D. Willoughby. The report, I suspect, should be received with cau- tion; the machine. I am convinced, ought not to be received at all. If a tithe of what is claimed for it be true, let us act like the small boy who has been worsted by a mean trick; let us refuse to play.

No

Such an infernal contrivance is not in the Spanish tradition. Quixote would have used his lance against in the interests of outraged humanity, and the Cid would have smashed it to pieces in a towering rage. Grand Inquisitor who knew his job would have allowed so plain an ex- ample of black magic to exist. For, make no mistake about it. black magic has always been an effort to get the better of mankind, and every device by which mankind is bested can rightly be accounted black and magical.

As yet, even the best gramophones have not ousted the best human voices from favour, but they have reduced most of us to silence or to private disharmonies in the bath- Up to a point they are fault- less, and I grant," they give pleasure but they are bad because they destrey the pleasure of performance, which of all pleasures is the best. Secretly, we all like our own voices, so if we all sang, we should all enjoy ourselves. We should neither beed nor hear the unpleasant noises other people make if we all sang together,

AUTOMATIC VEHICLES,

Then, again, there are all the auto- matic vehicles, from aeroplane and car to hearse and lorry including the necessary box. I should be the last to deny their merits, but what is the matter with occasionally using our legs? Are we to lose our nether- limbs because, like fails, they no longer serve a purpose? The desire to pass with, all speed from home to work and back again is well enough, bet for a holiday of weeks or half a day something is to be said "for tramping, a push-bicycle, or a mere saunter.

The man who thinks he knows the world because he has gone round it in 80 days or less is a simple fool. Probably he has seen less of it than the gaffer who has only heard tell of London, but trudges his five miles to market regularly once a week.

Do we grow too lazy? I rather commend than blame those who Already, we are too much in the wait their dull labours to be per power of things which the clever ones formed for them by wheels of steel have invented.

PLEASURES OF PERFORMANCE Note, that it is announced as able to defeat any mortal.. In olden dzys men used to associate perfection with the gods, but now they think of gaining it with machines. Possibly. they will succeed, but what will become of us? Even at play we ahall be mere minders and winders, listeners or spectators.

Perfection is bought at too high a price. Let us cling with, all our might to the very considerable pleasure there is in doing things fairly well or badly. Gradually, it is being taken from us, and, for in example, you can take the case of singing. Once, when a score together for so folk met
