f The Newsboy,
It has always been more or
thiat the newsboy is a poor,
supports a widowed mother
b the pennies he makes selling papers.
'.Now comes the Census Department to announce that
vtf-y few newsboys are in this class. Most of them come
frfim good homes, it says, and are not driven to selling
ptfyers by hard necessity. , ..
It is a good thing for us to
boy is an ambitious young business man, putting in his
spare time wisely and profitably. He is learning early in
life things about the world of business that most young
men do not learn until they reach their majority. Selling
papers is an excellent training school. It is not by acci
dent that so many of our prominent business and profes
sional men earned their first pennies in that, way.
Don't pity the newsboy who sells you your paper.
Admire him, rather, as an energetic, . capable young
American who has ambition.
Glorifying the Mail Clerk
The mail clerk has never been a very romantic figure.
Times are changing, however, and modern science is
about to pitch the gray-uniformed clerk into a position of
color and picturesoueness.
' The post office department announces that it will
shortly establish a new airway postal service, in which
clerks will fly in planes. and sort the mail en route, just
as is done now on railways. Large new planes, providing
space for clerks and sorting rooms, are now being pre
pared, and it is expected some will be placed in operation
on portions of the transcontinental route. '
Many postal clerks have already applied for transfer
to this new branch of the service. Among them is Walter
Tuchfarber, of Olathe, Kansas, who has been a railway
mail clerk for 22 years.
This ia an interesting developmentThe njaf slerk-
about to become one of those glamorous beings the rest
of us envy. ;
Each generation produces at least one great "liberal
thinker" whose life work consists in saying: "Darn religion..,.-,

'A friend in need is a friend who would glad
ly help you except that he spent his last dollar
yesterday.
It's hard to get an unprejudiced view. To the man
looking for a drink, all the world seems looking for a
drink.

FROM OVER
YOITH FACES THE DAW X
Milwaukee Journal: Three
thousand students meet In Mil
waukee io find out how modern
life can be squared with the
teachings of Jesus. Does that
look as though all of youth were
irreverent, interested only in Jan
and a good time? Does it look
as though the moral life of our
colleges has gone completely to
the dogs, as has been charged?
Is it not evidence that youth. In
its wanderings, really wants to
solve its problems? ',
The conference is plain recogni
tion of the fact that old land
marks have been swept away.
Life became complex, highly
volatile, uncertain, while reli
gion remained simple, molded to
form, dogmatic. Inevitably there
was a break, and young men and
young women found themselves
on one side or the other of a
gulf that was unbrldged. Those
on the side of religion and the
old faith tried to get along with
out modern life: they couldn't.
TIuibb on the side of modern life
trlt'd to get along without taking
(iiXI much Into account; they
couldn't do that. Ro they come
together to build the bridge of
life and faith.
Perhaps that gulf has served
a tiHeful purpose. Without it,
religion might not have realised
fully the necessity of ' pushing
deep its roots Into the lives of
men: without It, youth might
not have realised that a godless
life ia only a disappointment.
Youth testifies to that as It as
sembles hern. Young men have
tried everything the age offered

ALABAMA'S PROGRESS
The Nation: To the strains of
"All My Troubles Are Over," and
"Swing Low, Sweet Chariot." 800
Negro convicts marched out of
the Aldrlch and Flat Top coal
mines in Alabama marking the
end of the convict-lease system
under which Alabama bad leased
the services of prisoners to the
private owners of the mines..
It is to the great credit of
Southern public opinion and of
Governor Bibb Graves that Ala
bama has ended this survival of
barbarism. The twenty years of
its use nave been marked by
cases of , horrible cruelty; one
prisoner was beaten and then
boiled alive, allegedly by the
warden. When this was revealed
in 1926 after It had been hid
den two years liy a false death
certificate of suicide it stirred
the Alabamans to action, and the
system has now been completely
abolished. Along with the cam
paign againBt floggings In Ala
bama and the reduced number of
lynchlngs this strikes the new
note of progress In tho South.
