ROBEBURQ. OREOON. TUESDAY, JULY 8. 1924.
THE YOUNG PEOPLE OF TODAY.
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.

Antlers Theatre
The announcement from the Ant
lers theatre that the special William
Fox offering, "Hell's Hole," starring
Charles Jones, will be played, begin
ning Wednesday for a 2 day run Is of
unusual Interest.
"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.
