from the greatHendrik van Loon, author, journalist,
confidant of presidents, teacher of America's young people,
and renowned eccentric prose stylist. This week's lesson
comes to us from Van Loon's <em>Ancient Man, </em>which he
published in 1922, in which our author describes with
Nostradamian insight the current House of Representatives.<span

<p style="margin:0px">The "state," as a matter of fact, is
quite a recent invention. The earliest inhabitants of the
world did not know what it was. Every family lived and
hunted and worked and died for and by itself. Sometimes it
happened that a few of these families, for the sake of
greater protection against the wild animals and against
other wild people, formed a loose alliance which was
called a tribe or a clan. But as soon as the danger was
past, these groups of people acted again by and for
themselves and if the weak could not defend their own
cave, they were left to the mercies of the hyena and the
tiger and nobody was very sorry if they were killed. In
short, each person was a nation unto himself and he felt
no responsibility for the happiness and safety of his
neighbor.</p>
