l .i ' It sounds like sarcasm, but one of our Texas 'contempor
' nries says that congress, - after hearing all available tcsti-
i niony, has learned that some of the people want liquor and
some of tlicm don't. And we might add that, in other
j ; words, it's the same old apartment-house quarrel: Some
I would sit far into the night singing "How Dry I am," and
j. tho rest of us object to being kept awake.
j Abd-el-Krim as an adventurer showed the world ho was
a good (sport, nnyway. He fought the Spanish five years
j and the French two years, with only such equipment as he
' could capture from his modcmly-equippcd foes. Now that
' the. novelty of his "war" is wearing off he springs a big
surprise by dumping u few thousand prisoners back . into,
I tho French line and tells them it's their war from now on
I lie's through,; , ;
;.-! ; OREGON YOUNGSTERS llWROV' ' '
: : So much has been said about the "younger generation"
going to the dogs that The Observer hastens to quote from
the. Blue Mountain Eagle, which in turn has referred to
j its files of 30 or 40 years 'back, when Oregon youngsters
1 j really got "in- bad."
: "They tell us that these are degenerate days," says The
i Eagle, , "and that the young folks arc not what they used
i to be. . According to tho files
; some 30 or 40 years, it is probably a good thing the young
i j folks now are not like they
t ago.- . The news items of those days show many of the
: j young men before the court. The justice of the peace was
; j a busy gentleman in those days. Every week he had some
; ? young men up before him. There was drinking and there
i !' was. ,fighting, and there was larceny, 10 times, according
I to the old files of this paper,
thing that young folks are not
are Smarter, 'wiser and better
' the trouble that is reported in
: or 40 years ago." , . .
, f MEMORIAL DAY. ' "
. Memorial Day more thaii any other is consecrated to the
ideals of peace. Peace 'between brother and brother, peace
among warring factions,', peace among nations,
i Permanent peace is a glorious vision. How to attain it?
. Disarmament? Yes. disaimament helps a little, because it
ete that much of the human mind free from concentrating
on engines of war. Treaties? Yes, they help a little, too.
!' They give a feeling of security and allow the nations iii
; yolvel to., put their minds on other things. All the me
j chanjcal methods Jielp a little, each in its way. Hut none of
i them, is the great means, the infallible maker of peace. -.;
"He who , would have friends must show himself
'. friendly." . " H s . .
y. -. That s all. But it is a great deal. It means that we
", musfc know our. brothers and the meinlers of our other
: factions and tho nations of the earth. We must learn" to
; respect other people's, opinions, other people's points of
view, We need not abandon our own ways, if they seem
l-; to us better.- l!ut neither iieed we enforce them on others.
; And a friendly, tolciaut attitude is the thing most cal
dilated to keep the other fellow from enforcing his opinions
on. us. ; Puaco in the human mind means peace in the indi
S vidual mind. The idea of cooperation must take the place
; of the idea of necessary contest. These nit! the means that
j count. .
ji i Therefore, when we decorate the graves of those who
i gave their lives to war in order that their fellows miuht
have peace, it is worth while to consider these things to
make a start in the direction of holding peace and good will
to men in the individual heart. And remember on this
lace-tiine occasion, when peace-time organisations parade
; is in war-time, in Iji Grande and elsewhere, it should In?
;" reminder of tho honors of war. Respect shown for the
; lag and the paradeis at this time is due respect for the
military dead.
