THE MEN
OF TOMORROW
all
The small boy, for
that we see so much of
him, is usually a mystery.
,Ve talk a great deal about
him; we have traditions
Oiat begin, "small boys
like " and "small boys
always want ," but half
(of the time we are yrong,
and we seldom take any
pains to set ourselves right.
The Boys' Club Federa
tion of America recently set
out to get the right slant on
boiood's ideals, boyhood's
ranis and boyhood's
Abits. It questioned a
great many thousand boys,
scattered through more
than 125 cities in all parts
of the country; and it
learned some interesting
things.
To begin with, baseball
Is not because of any defect
in the game itself. It is
simply that the growth of
cities has left fewer and
fewer places where boys
can play ball. Besides, the
equipment is expensive.
In cities where boys'
clubs or other organizations
have provided athletic
fields, baseball is as popu
lar as ever. But in most
cities the supply of play
grounds is woefully inad
equate; and in such cases
the lads play "soft ball,"
because less equipment and
a smaller field are in
volved. Boyhood's ambitions for
the future are slowly
changing, too. Years ago
the average city youngster
.wanted to become a police
man or a fireman, so that
he could wear a bright new
uniform. Now the average
youngster aspires to be
come an aviator. In the
football season he is apt to
think that he would like to
follow in Knute Rochne's
footsteps, and in the sum
mer he may yearn to be an
other Babe Ruth or Hack
.Wilson; but day in and day
out it is the aviator who is
his particular ideal and
Lindburgh is still the Amer
ican boy's favorite hero.
Boys' reading habits
Seem to have changed for
the better. The old yellow
back thriller is still read,
but it is not nearly as pop
ular as it was a generation
ago. Today s boy reads
boys' magazines. It is in
teresting to note that he
still reads the Alger books.
Mark Twain's tales ars
favorites, and Ralph Henry
Barbour is widely read.
, Now all of this is a little
more important than we
suppose. Boys have a way
of following their own bent
in games and day-dreams.
The most we can do is see
to it that the influences
which guide their choice in
these matters are whole
some. And by studying
.what they are playing and
.what they are dreaming
about we can tell whether
we are succeeding. It is a
good thing for us to check
up on the matter occasion
ally; for the day dreams
and games of today's boy
hood will be reflected in
the actions of the adult
.world tomorrow.

now for the last legislature,
in Its desire to befrieud "the

annul the penally and excess In

make them straight eight per
cent.
Many of us have to borrow
money to pay taxes every year.
It Is a custom and he who does
sot is quit lucky. So, Instead
of paying eight per cent interest
to the party who loans money,
lust let the county carry the
load, for only eight per cent will
have to be paid to the couuty.
And the answer wilt likely be

Not that anyone holds to tho

heavy penalties exacted because
a person is late In paying taxes,
but that Is not the question. The
questton is can a county operate
and carry loans to the people at
the same time, for the new law
plainly makes a money lender out
of the county as a whole.

Hut there was one thing above

weak little man who had gone to
Juhu to recuperate from his Ill

At one time. Gandhi had
brought about such unity In the
fight for Independence. And
after ho went to Jail, he wrote a
letter to Hakim Akmal katin.

Once more bis family and hh
friends beseech ed him not to un
dertake a fast which might easily
prove fatal, hut Gandhi remained
ohdurato. On the 12th day it
was considered a crisis had come.
His doctors thought his life
in immediate danger and urged
him to take fond. Rut this 12th
day happened to be one of the
days on which he took a vow of
ttilence. To the urging of his doc
tors, he wrote on a slate:
"Iluve faith In God."
When his friends besaught him
to listen to reason, he wrote:
"You have forgotten the power
of prayer.'
Ho came through triumphantly.
He had done his penance. Gandhi
returned to his little colony near
Ahmadabad and threw all his
energies Into tho spinning wheel
tampaign. For the lime being he
was more or less quiescent politically.
In November, 1927. the British
government named the Hlmon
commission to examine? ito the
wholo Indian question and make 1
a report. In December, 1928, the
national congress met at Calcutta
and adopted an ultimatum that
unless the British parliament uc-cept.-d
a constitution proposed by
Gandhi's asKOtlatos, the Nehru
brothers, the non-violent, non
cooperation campaign would be
reconi ineuced. This marked
Gandhi's formal re-entry Into pol
itic. The situation gradually became
more tense and In December,
U2U, the national congress mot
at I.nhore, dropped the Nehru
report, claimed complete Inde
pendence, declared a boycott of
all legislatures and launched a
civil disobedience cumpalgn.
Following the Hlmon report,
the British government decided
to tiold an Indian round-table
conferen-e In London early In
1130. Itut Gandhi and his con
gress friends decided to boycott
the conference and did so.
On January 26, 1930. he and
his friends celebrated Independ
ence day. That had a familiar
American ring about It.
On January 30, Gandhi did
another thing with an American
accent. Just as Wood row Wil
son laid down his 14 points to
the enemy during the World
war, so Gandhi Issued his 14
points to the government of In
dia. These Included abolition of
the government salt monopoly
with the right of natives to
make their own salt; freedom
