A!’ are cordially invited to attend. Bring the little # folks. A silver offering will:be taken.” 5 “Amen!” was still ringing in the church. ait = when the young bucks made their rush for the * door, to line up outside and spring the conven- ational, “May I see you home?” on the white : frocked:damsels, preparatory to arranging “dates” _ for the social. People on thé ‘sunset side of 30 can look back “to the old-time ‘church entertainments with con- ? siderable satisfaction, knowing that, having par- 2 ticipated in same, they have not lived in vain. * ‘The church “social”—or “sociable,” as you pre- » fer—was “big doings.” If you and your girl ar. " rived early in your side-bar buggy, before dusk = had departed and the Chinese lantern candles were + lighted, there was time for a few rounds of old- * fashioned golf—croquet. ‘The ice cream was always made in the churcl basement, under the direction of some woman whe ‘specialized in this line. And you could eat for a “dime — including luscious cake baked by house- - wives who considered it sacrilegious to mix up a ‘cake without using at least 18 eggs. The ice cream social—now nearing extinction— “was the pinnacle of entertainment for young un- <married people, though hard-working fathers in- <clined to the chicken dinners where a whole wash- tub of choice eatables could be stowed away fo: -25 cents. Of course, a quarter was a lot of money in those days, but every one agreed that the church chicken supper was worth it. Those old-time gatherings, in the last analysis were for the purpose of mating the young folks ij a wholesome atmosphere. They were characteristic of clean, virile, sen- - sible ante-jazz days. After all, though, people do not change much ‘The same women always stayed behind to wash. the dishes after the old-time ice cream socials an¢ chicken suppers, just as the same women now “have to handle all the arranging and cleaning-u; _after social gatherings. = And a good many men who are nauseated witt. movies, jazz bands and synthetic gin would give a lot to turn the clock, back and experience anothe: “ee cream social or even a croquet game—in patent Jeather shoes, red necktie or tightly-wrappec “choker, straw hat with an inch-thick brim an¢ white, starched line duck trousers, with maybe ‘a watch-chain made of braided shoestrings. = TO CONTROL MANUFACTURE =~ American Bar Association considers urging @ national law to preyent: making of firearms anc “ammunition except under Uncle Sam’s super: vision = This would do a lot to shut off the gunman’s supply of gats, now procurable by mail-order.

Each move to put pistols farther from the reach of criminals is a step toward dis- ‘arming the enemies of society. : ees WIDOWS =: A third of the widows of America are badly in need of money, estimates John J. Shuff, insurance =expert. we This is not propaganda on his part, to sell in- surance, for he makes the estimate at a private | ‘gathering of life underwriters in Cleveland. _ A man insures his house and furniture for as *elose to its full value as the insurance company will permit. But he usually insures his life at “only a fraction of its value to his family, though =Ehe bread-winner’s life is his family’s real wealth. = DEAD-BEATS <= Dead-beats are steadily becoming fewer. So’ “gay retail credit men, at their national convention in Cleveland. =: This reflects the skilled work of the credit men. Human nature hasn’t changed much in 20 years. 2The reason there are fewer. dead-beats is because the credit organizations have made it harder for “a bill jumper to open a charge account. : George A.

PHILOSOPHY A negro philosopher, Jiving on a farm near Cleveland, Chio, drew the money end of a debate on this question: ~“Which is the most valuable— am education or money?” The negro won the debate with this line of rea- soning: “Just go to a butcher shop, say, ‘Gimme an education’s worth o’ pork, chops’—an’ see what you get.” i BOOM In May, 1919, during the big boom, the steel mills produced only 1,929,024 tons of ingots. In May, 1922, output was 2,711,141 tons. Gentlemen with blue spectacles should cut this vut and paste it on their desks. The country in general soon will be producing 1s much as during the post-war boom. Financial orosperity will not be as great. We are beginning ‘to pay for the war. DEVIL WORSHIP The Black Mass—devil worship— is revived-on 1 big scale by a cult of decadents in Paris. This turns the clock back a good many cen- ‘uries, to the superstitious days when the evil ‘easoned that they might escape punishment by Secoming worshipping henchmen of Satin, the ounisher. a : nha Somewhere on earth you can find the spirit of »ery preceding century, at work among the rullible and ignorant. In some places, it still is che year 4000 B. C. RUM-RUNNING. Another big source of liquor supply is suddenly shut off. Ontario, Canada, begins enforcing a special act of its legislature that makes it illegal ‘o transport liquor over highways. Liquor for »xport can be shipped only by railroad and lake route. f Up to. now, bootleggers loaded a truck with} ‘ooch and wandered along Ontario country roads antil they found an unguarded point where their vargo could be slipped across the border into the United States. The new legislation prohibits this—and Ontario has a peculiar custom of enforcing its laws. Thus another of the rivers, flowing into the Vol- stead desert, dries up at its source. More coun- Serfeit Canadian and Scotch whiskey labels will ye needed by American bootleggers. EDITORIAL REVIEW Comments reproduced in this column ‘may or may not express the opinion of The Tribune. They are presented here in order that our readers may bave both sides of important issues which are being discussed in the press of the day. GLAD WE AREN’T WORTH $1,000,000,000 A little item in this morning’s news helps us to understand why the wisest of mankind—the men whose names do not live for merely a day but are remembered throughout centuries —have held that it is only fools who give up their lives to seeking great power and great riches. The riches of a Rockefeller have not won the wise men’s approval any more than the wise men’s envy, because while we are sometimes told that such enormous fortunes can be used to bless man- kind it happens that the big achievementts of the human race have not come that way. They have ‘been the fruits of the labors of men who cared more for other things than for money and few of them had money to thank for their ability to do what they did for civilization. And as for the mere*pleasure of life, who doesn’t prefer the ordi- nary mai’s freedom to the restrictions that sur- round a king or.the mate'of a king, a Morgan or a Rockefeller? Just imagine; they dedicated a new Baptist church in New York yesterday, and as Rockefeller had given half of the $1,500,000 it cost, he wanted to be present. But in order to make it possible for him to attend, the neighborhood and the church itself had to be heavily guarded by detectives, who inspected everybody who entered. It’s real jolly to be poor enough to go where you blankety please without calling out the militia, isn’t it?— Pittsburgh Press, _ ADVENTURE OF | THETWINS | 6 By Olive Barton Roberts When Phil Frog heard Mr. Pecr- about, the Man-in-the-Moon, was lost he was amazed, “The very idea of us not knowing} it!” he declared. “Why, last night the Moon locked so nice and round and shiny Fannie and I and the children all got out and sang a song of thank- fulness. We were sure we saw Mr. Peerabout then.” Nancy ‘shook her head. “No,” she said. “You didn’t sce Mr. l’eerabout. Old Comet-Legs, the fairy who is jealous of him, pushed him off the Moon. The Weatherman is running the Moon until Mr. Peer- about is found.” “Well, I declare!” croaked Phil. “Vil have to help, that’s sure, for honestly I don’t know what we’d do without a Moon. “When there’s a nice Moon we're not afraid of losing our lives. We can see when Oscar Owl is looking} for us, and Marty Mink snoops along the bank on the lookout for a nice, fat pollywog.” Just then: Polly Pollywog, who'd been listening, spoke up. “What does the Moon-Man look like?” she asked. “Anything like frogs or pollywogs?” “No,” explained Nick. “He looks like us. He has a head and arms and legs and fect.” ‘ But Polly was too excited to listen. “Oh, I saw something,” she cried out. “{ know: where Mr. Peerabout is. I saw him hidifig in the tall grass near the bank.’ He’s'got arms and legs and 4 head:and he’s all tagged, too. Vl take you there.” So off they all started. “There he is,” cried Pdlly. “Right there.” UW Ge TO _And_ whati:do you think! Nancy picked up Kitty. Brown’s rag doll. _ “No, Polly,’ti said: shestkindly. “This isn’t the Moon-Man, He’s/lost yet. But you can keep..on looking. I’m afraid when he fell he got his head bumped and lost his memory.” (To Be Continued) (Copyright, 1922, NEA Service) —-——_— ———__-——_—_ Py | TODAY’S WORD | —-—-—_—___-———-*+ Today’s word is MORIBUND.
