THE AIMLESS ELEMENT
Most cities a. id towns have their element of aimless
young; men and boys, who cherish no active purpose in the
world. They are commonly seen loafing around at favorite
resorts and on the curbstones. They watch other people
play games, and do not play much themselves for lack of
mtmey. Uicy stand with open mouths watching the peo
ple go by, and are disappointed if there is not a fire or a
drunken man or a fight or something else to create excite
ment. Then there is the aimless girl element, who are seen
oil the streets much of the time, anxious for flirtations with
the above described boys, who are always ready to "pick
(Earn up." They may pay their parents little or nolliing for
board and they are not apt to help much with the home
work. But they manage to go to most of the shows, and are
quick to accept automobile rides from strangers.
These young people had the opportunities for school
ing that the other children get, but most of them never
stood well in school. Other things seemed more interesting.
Commonly they drop out early, feeling out of their clement
inong those who are trying to do real work, perhaps indue-
by some job that offers them a little pocket money for
their sporting desires. It is difficult to do much with them
after they get started in these aimless paths. But if taken
early, they can almost invariably be prevented from acquir
ing these wrong points of view.
What are they doing with their spare time. What are
they doing alter dark and in the back alleys, and hang-outs?
Whose ideas are they following, their gang leaders and the
smart guys, or those of their teachers and real friends?
'- ' Those who belong to societies where ideals of achieve
ment are held up before them, like the Boy Scouts and Girl
Scouts, do not usually get these aimless ways.
Next Monday is going to be a real patriotic day in
ftoseburg one of those days that go down, in history with
a 'decided accomplishment. Do you know what is going to
happen Monday? Well, if you don t, here it is: hvcry man,
ivnmmi ann rn r U' KTrum i id r nnru'or nrum in n lr nvpr
. the American Legion drive for this county's part of the en
- -dowment fund to be established Sor the benefit of dependent
r and orphan children of all World War veterans. There could
I be no greater or more worthy cause deserving the fullest
support of all our citizens. We have a solemn pledge to ful-
fill. Now is the time to go over the top for the boys that
r brought peace and happiness to millions of people. Be on
the Job Monday to support the drive to the limit and then
-some.
