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

Spenders, taya a columnist are waiting for the
turn. What will they do after turning the other
cheek?

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE
ACCIDENTS PERIL TIRED CHILD
e e . e
CAN CUT DOWN DANGER TO CHILDREN BY EDUCATION AND
EFFICIENT CONTROL OF MOTORIST TRAFFIO
By DU. 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.

CL'GENE, Ore. (To tbe Editor)
Here ia another article for Mr.
Schaffer, the atheist, to pouder over.
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?
