BUILDING PERMITS
BEGINNING AT HOME
We read in the Tablet, Brooklyn,
of a community in which the mothers
of families undertook an investiga­
tion to find out what is wrong with
the rising generation. At this social
clinic, a* it was called, the mothers
mad« a diagnosis of various social
ailments which afflict their boys and
girls and they wrote a prescription
which, curious to relate, is to be
taken by the mothers as well as by
the children. It was in the form of
the following pledge:
Firsts—To aid, by influence and ex­
ample, modest mode of dress for girls
of high school ags, both at school and
at social functions.
Second—To combat, even at th«
cost of personal invonvenienee, the
motion-picture habit, gatherings fit
the cream parlors and other semi­
publie places by throwing open the
home for wholesome entert-inments.
Third—To discourage unwholesome
or too frequent dancing.
Fourth—To obey the traffic laws
by not allowing a son or daughter,
under 18 years, to drive a motor ear.
unless accompanied by parent or
chauffeur.
Five—To re-establish the chaperon
system.
Sixth—To install an etrly-to-bed
system for the entire family during
the school week.
There are cases, all too many of
course, where parental care of the
children’s welfare is not enough. But
there is truth in the proverb that if
every one swept before his own door
the street would be kept clean. Dr.
Johnson or Carlyle or some other
philosophic individual, wl-.en discuss­
ing an uplift movement of his time,
wrote- “Let me regulate my own
life and I can be sure that there will
be one scoundrel the less in the
world.” So, in this matter of train­
ing children, the family cannot pass
on to the schools or the police the
responsibility of directing the youth­
ful feet in the right paths.
Under the striking title “The Iron
Man in Industry,” Arthur Pound dis­
cussed in a new book the role of
automatic machinery in modern life.
The author indicts the machine for
destroying mentality among the rank
and file of workers. “So far as the
great majority of workers are con­
cerned, modem industry presents this
phenomenon—the dulling of the mind
—on a scale unequalled in extent, and
to a degree unequalled in intensity,
hv anything on record in history.”
The rewards of leadership, on the
other hand, place a very high pre­
mium on mental capacity.

Short Stories

Straggling Youth«
The head of a large shipping firm
in the west received a letter from a
millionaire banker asking that his son
be given a job where he could learn
the business. Soon after the heed of
the shipping firm wrote back to the
young man’s father:
"Your eon has arrived. I have
given him employment in my office
at $20 a week, with others of his
class. One of these young men has
just bought s $100,000 yacht and
another come* to the office in a $20,-
000 motor ear. I think your son will
find his surroundings congenial.—
Philadelphia ledger.
A New York politician, in a letter
of condolence to the widow of a
recently deceased member of the leg­
islature wrote: “I cannot tell you
how pained 1 was to hear that your
husband had gone to heaven. We were
bosom friends, but now we shall never
meet again.”
A bachelor who is forever “putting
his foot in it” recently visited the
proud parents of a new baby boy.
The mother held up the bundle for
inspection, and asked gaily:
“Tell us now, frankly, which of us
do you think he is like?”
After a careful examination of the
baby the bachelor replied:
“Well, of course, it is not very in­
telligent looking yet, but he’s won­
derfully like both of you!”
Workmen «ere making repairs on
the wries in an Idaho schoolhouse
one Saturday when a small boy
wandered in.

cf the workmen said.
The boy then volunteered: “I don’t

go to this school any more.”

It seems that prohibition statistics
are a* weak as prohibition beer. An
official of the world prohibition fed­
eration has been producing soma of
the former in England, and on ths
strength of them claims that a year
of prohibition in America has been
productive of a revival in religion. In
support of this extraordinary notion
he asserts that there has been an in­
crease of 1.000,000 church members.
Christian charity demands that it
should be pointed out to the English,
who are threatened with the possi­
bility of a legal suppression of their
thirst, that ths population of the
United States increases by more than
a million a year. The increase in
church membership, stated bat not
proved, does not show that the coun­
try is getting better, but merely thst
it is getting no worse. Why lie about
prohibition ? Is sobriety of more im­
portance than truth ?
TARIFF SENTIMENT
The United States senate finds it
difficult to keep s quorum together
during the discussion of the tariff,
so slight is the enthusiasm of that
august body for the measure. It ia
apparent that the business world is
divided as to the virtues of the tariff;
the banking community ia turning its
attention more and more toward for­
eign loans and is coming to the con­
clusion that imports from abroad are
needed if foreigners are to pay in­
terest on American loans.
Senator McCumber, in introducing
the tariff bill in the senate, was un­
able to promise that the measure of
itself would make the country pros­
perous. Manufacturers, he said, must
not raise their prices until the con­
sumers get on their feet again. On
the other hand, the people must work
harder and produce more. In that
case the tariff will be a success. This
speech of the senator’s leads a republi­
can paper, the State Journal of Lin­
coln, Neb., to comment: “It is as
if the doctor told us to dig hard in
our garden, eat only wholesome food,
drink plenty of water, and keep our
mind calm, and he would guarantee
his pills to cure our alimentary dis­
orders. Which, then, is the cure? If
we should all go to producing at our
level best, and all profiteering were
stepped, would not the country hum
with prosperity though the tariff re­
main as it is or even lower?”
