A NEWSPAPER IS A CITIZEN OF ITS COMMUNITY TREND OP LITERATURE A LIST waa compiled tho other day of the beet ellerf of the lait thirty yeara. It reveale much about the trend ot American life. Back in 1903 "Mri. Wlgga of the Cabbage Patch" waa a veil known literary figure. She lived la elrople, homely atory. There waa eometblnt: refresh lug about her. And when "The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come" left home tn 190i with only hie dog to trail him aeroaa the mountalne he bad wet-eyed audience. That aame tearful Influence went along the trad of the Lonaeaome Pine when June went back to her loit romance. It predom inated when Garth went blind in "The Roaary." Booka wera aim pit. They dealt with amotlona that hadn't acquired a Teneer ot aophlatlcatlon. Life waan't complex In Iboae talea. For the moat part booka were erected on lore and aaerlflca and bonor. If an author could make hie readara weep lie had done much. But another Influence crept In Juat before 1916. Industry waa growing larger. It waa taat becoming predominating force In America aoclal Ufa. And alneo literature followa Ufa, It became the akeleton for fiction ploti aa wall. Booth Tarklngton need It In "The Turmoil." Bmoky aklea of American cltlee wera aa Intareatlng aa the drama of love over which two young people fought on a more or leaa Induatrlal baeli. Bnt "Seventeen" waa a return to pure, unalloyed enjoyment of the wletfulneag that goal with youth. It waa Ufa ttaelf. nnbampered by outalda reatrlotlon. Life at IT. And It waa lovely. And then auddenly literature wasn't afraid to look at the bidden aide et Ufa. It decided not only to talk about the thlnga that people do. and their eoneeqaencee, but to give the reeeone for the action. It grew introtpectlve. It crttlelied when It felt like it It caricatured. Inataad of telling atory bout a certain group et people It eboaa eroee-feotlone of lit ttaelt. It bad a leeton to teaeb. The feet that John married Mary waa Intareatlng but not important. Quit probably John didn't And It he did he and Mary wera juat aa likely to have wtahed that they hadn't, -Main Street," "Elmer Oantry." "It Winter Cornea." "Bo Big" . . . the Hat began to look aa though the authora wera living Intensively aa well a extensively. Beat aellera had outgrown their growing palna. Tbey weren't afraid to talk about the aymgtoma ot Ufa. And literature, while It may not ba aa quietly enjoyable, la eonalderably mora instructive. That la it you want to be Instructed. WHAT IS MORAL? 1J0T10NS of what la liberal In governmental aupervlslon of eommunlty affaire differ. If yon take the traffic In intoxicating liquor aa a atandard. the itataa below the Canadian border are exceedingly atrlot and the province ot Ontario la very liberal. But a megailna recently reported that Ontario baa barred Oreta Oarbo'a lateet film, "Suaan Lenox," aa Immoral; and that faot put another aapect on the oomparlaon. Few, if any, American atatea have turned thumba down on the picture although aoma ot the atata cenaorahlp boards, In the paat, have certainly aeemed to be atrtct enough tor anyone. Ontario, however, takee the pppoalte view. Below the border, poaalbly, It la believed that a man la more easily ruined by what ba drtnka than by what ha area. North ot the border the reverse ia true. la that the anawerT ' GLORIOUS ISOLATION? 'TAMES W. OERARD, former ambassador to Oer w many, advocated In a recent apeech that TJncle Sam maintain an army of 100,000 men, an adequate navy "and a resolution to alt tight and mind hie own business." Hit formula la at leaat simple and aaay to understand: the only trouble with it might coma from an attempt to define Juat exactly what minding his own bualneaa might Include. Traditionally, nothing that happena beyond the aeaa la Uncle Sam't bualneaa. The fear ot en tangling foreign elllencee - reflecte that feeling; preaumably it waa behind Mr. Oerard'a advice. Tet it baa become more and more evident, in recent yeara, that the nation simply cannot shut lie eyes to evenla tn Europe and Asia, Whether It likes It or not the United Rtatea hae a very direct concern in International affaire. Banker end exporter to bait the world how le the old gentleman going to Ignore the dolnge of ble neighbors? ABOLISHING THE CITY TJERTRAND RCSBELU British scientist and phlloaopher, proposed In a recent debate in New Tork that the etate Instead of the family ought to bring np children! and while there dceen't eeem much chance that hie plan will be adopted vary toon, one of the arguments he used la worth think ing about He admitted that parenta are usually better at the Job of raising children then any etate Institu tion can be. But he Insisted that thla la true only if the parenta live In good conditions, and be pointed out that moat people nowedayt live la cltlea. and that the email apartment typical of tlty life la very far from being a good rlace for children. All ot thla le true enough. No one who haa apent all or part ot bla childhood tn a city apart ment will deny It. But there may be another way out ot the difficulty. Since the dty apartment it a tough place for youngster., and aa ever-Increasing percentage ot families Urea In apartments why not. Instead of trying to abolish the family, abolish the city? It te very possible that thje le aa Issue which will engage a major ahare ot the publlc'e atteatloa during the next half century. The ahtft from a rural to an urban civilisation to the lnlied Statea la a very recent thing, and ft last ntlrely finished yet; but it aa gone far enough to make It perfectly clear that the city, In a great many waya, la sot much of a place to lire and rear a family. It la crowded, nolay and dirty. When atreeta and vacant lota are used for playgrounds ee they have to be. In thousands ot circumstances the re sults are distressing. Among a child's inalienable rlghta (and a grown person'a, too. for that matter) ought to be the privilege ot wandering acrosa open fields and through quiet blta of woodland; yet that privilege la (Imply unattainable to the average city dweller. We have, by this time, developed rapid transit facilities sufficiently to enable ua to abolish the closely-packed urban realdental district it we choose. It may ba necessary for ua to group industrlna and offlcea togethor; but why can't living quarters ba put a ecore of miles away, out In the open, away from the dust and congestion and noise? Already there la a tondency In that direction, So far It la limited chiefly to the fairly well-to-do. Sooner or later It ought to extend to everyone. EFFECTS OF NEW DISCOVERIES rFHB way In which aclence can upset long-eatab-llshed Industries by meana of new fnventlona la atrlklngly illustrated In two little news dispatches which appeared In the papers recently. One told bow the Du Ponta have Invented a meant of mak ing synthetic rubber; the other revealed that Ger man englneera believe they have found a way ot making synthetic gasoline cheaply. , Whether either of these processes can success fully compete with the natural product la not yet clear. But a moment's thought abowa how far reaching the eftecte of such Inventions could easily be. Suppoae, Juat for the take ot argument that cheap artificial rubber and gasoline tliould auddenly become available; would there not be a perplexing time ahead for the vast rubber plantattona of Brazil and Malaya and for the ownera of the world'a leading oil fields 7 Clotbtert are bowling that automobiles have made motorists careless about their clothes. But there art still times when a man mutt change attire. A Hollywood syndicate waa found to be distrib uting liquor Instead ot films. Which maket it appear that talkies are turning Into tpeakeaelet. Hottlt are bettering their service to Inorease bualneaa. If It geta much bettor what will be come ot nobody! business! . Spenders, taya a columnist are waiting for the turn.

MOIIEIS F1SHBEIN . (Editor, Journal ot the American Medical Association, and of Hy gels, the Health Magatine) IN 1030 over 18,000 children were 4 killed in accidenta In the United Statea, and a large number were ser iously injured. In a recent report of the subject, Dr. H- J. Stack points out that chil dren who are worried about affairs at borne or at school are more prone to accidents than thoae who ero not worried. Tired children are also pe culiarly liable to accidents. An Invca ligation made In New York City showed that accidenta to children on the city streets are of maiimum In cidence In tha boura of tbe late after noon. ' Thla Is, of course, tbe time when children are coming borne from school or else when they are playing In the street. The morning hours Involve Juat as much walking on tho streets as do the boura In the afternoon, hut in the afternoon period the children are tired and responses aro slower and senses are less acute, and their Judg ment of dlstanree and of time and their co-orilliialioii ore disturbed. Ill bis investigation. Dr. Slack found that all normal children love nd venture end unless this craving is sup plied by suitable competitive sport under controlled conditions, by scout ing, by camping, football or some similar activity, the child la likely to get bis thrills uy oitcoitig, running across the street. Jumping from high places, or ammar performances. The method of teaching apparently most successful In causing chrildren to avoid accidents is tbe demonstra tion method with an artificial acci dent In the place of such demonstra tions an effective substitute is the story lesson with the demonstration of the effect of wrong action. An interestina observation la the fact that accidents occur Just as fre quently to the more InteUlgent cnuren as to tho less intelligent Tbe intelli gent quotients, as determined by In telligence tests, do not seem to offer s criterion ot behavior In an actual situation. There are two ways In which the Incidence of accidents may be attack ed: (1) through education of those who nro the subjects of the accidents; CJ) through control of those who are likely to cause accidents. Motorists, particularly the drlvera of trucks, must he inuaht to resnect signs indi cating tho neighborhood of a school or a chtiiireu s pisygrouna.

This man reminds me of tbe old lady who continually remarked (whenever anyone tried to tell her something she did not wish to believe) "I'm will ing to be convinced but I'd like to gee the feller who can convince me." Also, he is like the man spoken to In Rom. 9:20-23 "O man. who art thou that replieet against GodV Shall the thing formed say to him that forraod it, Why didst thou make me thus? Or hath not the potter a right over the clay, from the aame lump to make one part a vessel unto bonor. and another unto dishonor? What if God, willing to show bis wrath, and to make his power known, en dured with much long suffering vea sels of wrath fitted unto destruction: and that ha might maka known the ricbee of hi glory upon veesels of mercy, which he efore prepared unto glory?"' Here, by inference, the Word of God branda the man a fool who com plains because he is not made to suit bimself. It seems too bad such a person could not have been present ot creation, to have aided God with some of this super advice. I feel sure God muat have needed It if he made such a mess of things in crea tion as Mr. Schaffer asserts. But, I am always convinced, when viewing the works of God, that God is a most wonderful and perfect God, who buq created this marvelous uni verse in which wo live, with the pin nets placed, and aent In their or bits, such that (according to astrono mers) for untold centuries not even a single second bns been lost tn their course, despite all friction and in eoiuijity of their respective sites and distances from the sun. Herein ia witness of nothing less than a perfect and powerful God's perfect crention! Wbo but a perfect God could cre ate the beautiful flowera which we nee and smell, or tbe many good things which we have to eat, wear and enjoy? Then when man will go and mar this creation and the body and mind which God has given him, let him not play the fool and lay the b!omo on God, saying "Why did you make me thus?" And let him not reason that there la no God becsus, T? r." Kri .? eiV. iWI l UIU.BC.I It k- j " le time.. Mr! auch child' & 2 like God a account of th.,,,6 man. When asked of (: t to blame.
