In a clever novel by the above title, the noted English journ alist Philip Gibbs discusses the young people of today. His pic tures would prove true to some extent of the young crowd of many small communities. He pictures English young people as being impatient of authority, extremely self assertive, disposed to laugh at the fears and principles of their parents, and in clined to disregard the moral conventions of society, tor in stance, one young couple started off to ride a long distance when their automobile broke down. They put up at a hotel over night, and occupied adjoining rooms. They were represented as clean and moral young folks, and they could not see why their conduct, which violated the customs of society, should have created the scandal that it did. In so far as American young folks are fol lowing after such ideas, it can be remarked that each generation has set aside the traditions of its predecessors to some extent. But the customs of society on the whole are good and are adopted to restrain people from wrongdoing. Where great freedom prevails between the sexes, and they do not follow the customs of conven tional morality, the chances of grave irregularity are increased. There are more broken homes, and more young people make a false start in life. While the old timers no doubt are too conserv ative in some respects, yet this story represents young people as being very selfish in their insistence on having their own ideas and disregarding the judgment of their parents. The young folks of this community do not go to extremes in these matters. Yet there are many families even here whose young people are much disposed to have their own way, with too little regard to th principles and the wisdom of the parents to whom they owe so much. o Such a calamity as the recent tornado that tore its way across Northern Ohio with such fearful destructiveness, may in duco a bitter feeling in the minds of some. It may seem that such an event proves the heartless cruelty of nature. Yet are the forces of nature wholly responsible for such tragedies? Some of these disasters are created by disturbances of the order of na ture for which men are responsible. When men cut down the forests so ruthlessly, they must create a condition where violent wind storms nre more likely to arise and sweep across the coun try. When men gather in cities, they create conditions under which severe wind storms are likely to be specially disastrous. Ii, men built their homes more strongly and thoroughly, the danger from destructive winds would probably be less. Conditions ol modern living are artificial, and create an exposure to calami ties that could not exist to any such extent in a state of nature. : o After much deliberation and personal investigation by the city council action was taken last evening for the purchase of ad ditional fire fighting equipment for this city. In exercising thei judgment the council has shown a degree of progressiveness that will meet with unanimous approval from the public generally .They decided that Koscburg should have the very best possible l the way of fire protection, not only to meet present needs, but to cope with a city that has a record for advancement, and with this view in mind have added to the fire fighting facilities of this city a most approved and modern fire engine and pump, along with much other equipment that will play an important part in coping with out of the ordinary conflagrations. It is a fine spirit to show that of doing things well for a fast growing and prosper ous city like Koscburg. o There will be little disposition in any rational quarter to carp at the delegates of the democratic convention resolutions committee, who after a bitter all-night session finally joined in praver. Political conventions as a rule are far from being sway ed by the motive of prayer. At the best they are generally dom inated by selfish political interests. They open meetings with formal prayer, but that has perhaps become a custom more for reasons of policy than because the majority of the delegates feel the need for such intercession. If the prayer spirit, the desire for the guidance of a higher power, could permeate the meetings of the two great parties, it would call for a great change in the ideals of these meetings. o The democratic delegates seem to have gone "haywire" since the strings were cut loose. With all members released from pledges it is a mighty hard guess to tell on whom the crown will be placed for the standard bearer. o The democrats are still pounding away trying to put over a presidential nominee. Most people hope the agony will soon end. GOOD EVENING FOLKS Ye ed. waa walkln' Along the main atem Tbie a. m. when We aaw a little tot About eix Walking betid A fair young woman Of 24. perhapa.

Prior to the opening of j bids the council disposed of a great j deal of Important business.. The remonstrance of the Sisters of Mercy against the construction of a sidewalk along their property was read and laid on the table at tne re quest of Attorney Compton. A re monstrance of a number of physicians waa also submitted and the council was Informed that residents who would be affected are also circulating remonstrance and action was de layed until the latter objection is received. The residents of Harvard Avenue asked for Immediate action on the paving petition submitted by them and were assured by the council that such action would be taken at once. The petition has been held up while the street committee investigated the value of the property on the street. A report was given that the property is worth the paving and the ordi nance providing for the paving was passed. A communication from Lloyd Cole asking for action on the proponltion submitted by Florence Aikin Banks for an ordinance restricting cats in order to protect the song birds, was read and placed on the table. A petition for the paving of Parrott street between Lane and Oak was read and referred to the street com mittee for investigation. An agreement between the contrac tors and residents of Glenn street to eliminate the Intersection at Hamil ton street and run the curb and side walk unbroken across the street was read. As Hamilton street Is located on a high bank at the intersection with Cilenn street and will never be opened the agreement was approved by the council. The audit of G. Ed Robs who has been expertlng the city books was read. He found the books In good I shape and complimented the city for the manner in which they have been kept and praised the system used. He made a number of suggestions which have been referred to the current ex pense and accounts committee. It was reported that the excessive number of fires during the past two months had caused a deficit in the fire department funds of $25rt. It was voti'd to appropriate $230 to help the department over the existing difficul ty. The marshal was instructed tb or der property owners on East Douglas street to construct a stairway in place of the one now reported to be in a dangerous condition.

"Hell's Hole" takes is name from the dynamic climax to which the story speeds, with Jones "stepping on the action," with characteristic dar ing and abandon. The big highlight preceding the climax is , the on slaught of an avalanche, especially staged for this picture in the Califor nia hills. This avalanche, vigorous In its conception and thrilling In Its exe cution, buries the cabin in which Charles Jones, as Tod Musgrove, holds his treacherous friend and the girl he loves captive. The picture commences with one of those characteristic Jones exhibi tions of a free for all fight.
