Costly Accidents From Deep Mines And Flooded Caverns

Immense industrial schemes fail disastrously as storms flood English mines. The Tin mine near the sea flooded after pumping and repairs fail.

Desert Not Dreary Says Ray Stannard Baker Quote

In Century magazine Baker argues the arid desert is not dreary or cheerless but hopeful and strong while human mining towns and herds create ugliness and pollution. He frames deserts as calm, clean, and noble until people arrive with destructive industry.

Round peg in square holes blames misdirected work choices

The piece argues much wasted effort arises when people forced into unsuitable careers. Ambitious parents push youths toward professions ill suited to their talents, while true callings in art farming or carpentry are neglected, yielding many life defeats from forcing a round peg into a square hole.
