It is a wonder, that the city authorities cannot come to life long enough to order in the street light at the Webel corner on Center street, and remove this par- ticular point from its Egyptian darkness. Is it not realized that this is the meeting place of the her. iest street traffic in the city. Is the city wait- ing fo- the smash-up and possible loss of life that is bound iv occur at this intersection, before it takes the precaution of restoring the light? Is the city so short of finances that it lacks the means, is it short of light posts, is it simply negligent or is it waiting for somebody else to put in the post and connect the light? Really, no kidding, this light ought to be restored. EI LTS Se Se CURFEW NOT RINGING. Buffalo has discontinued ‘the ringing of its curfew bell. It has found that it did not do the business any better than the curfew whistle in Casper. No one obeyed it and it and the noise became a nuisance. Fi- nally Buffalo took a tumble and the mayor ordered the bell ringer to cease. The Buffalo Voice has this } European huddle in order that they might stand on their own feet; and having reached America, they had to stand alone. Most born Americans were born of parents who owned their own homes. “Contentment with huddle, the willingness to live in someone else’s warmed and cared-for loft rather than in one’s own fought-for and paid-for home marks a fretrogression in spirit from the American way to the European wa f life. 3 jowever we y excuse ourselves for inclination mfort of the choreless, commer- nt, and for 8) king from the harder demar f the detached, owned and paid-for home; and however respectable the renting habit may have st be admitted that our inclin: tion is ha: social degeneracy, a drift toward the huddle, the beginning of the abandonment of that vitalizing independence of which the owned home is) pre-eminently the symbol and support.” same pt -E. SEASONABLE REMARKS. Hot weather literature is the general order these and editors and reporters talk freely of the her. The New York Evening Post is no excep- tion when it breaks out this way: “Chief among the low-down outrages of these sizzling days is the fact that a half dozen explorers seize on them to announce their departure for the Polar regions. Donald MacMillan has just started to go up the Greenland side of the Arctic. Stefansson, returning from the Siberian side, announces he will set out again soon. Amundsen has chosen the same quarter. Shackleton is to sail for the Antarctic next month. These wretches put whole continents of pres-| piring humankind to the tortures of Tantalus. They remind us that we have not really felt cool since the Liberian bishop landed here a few weeks ago and said that 90 degrees wasn’t a circumstance to what he had to endure. There is a certain measure of revenge in the thought that these Polar explorers are sacrificing | their reputations for courage. e perils of toppling icebergs, of cold so intense that, as Mark Twain said,) it freezes your shadow to the deck, of fierce blizzards —who wouldn’t rush into them? The real hero is the! man who wraps his wilted collar about him, staggers over the treacherous floes of asphalt, smiles good-! naturedly if wanly when his jammed train gets stuck in the subway hummocks, and at 4:30 p.m. cheerful-) ly shouts ‘Mush on!” to his fainting stenographers and| office force.” | Ses A | OLD FAMILY CUSTOMS. | In pleading for a revival of a fine old custom, a} writer in the Concord Monitor asks: Why do so few} parents, nowadays sing either to or with their chil-| dren? Perhaps as the writer suggests the phonograph with its music making faculties or the automobile and the) movie, forever dragging people from their homes, or jazz with its exotic and difficult cadences, have driven| the old sweet airs and the habit of family singing from the American homes. Old hymns of noble verse and nobler music, beauti- ful old ballads in settings of simple but perfect mel- ody, are a valuable part of the equipment of any life! and memory. Every little while new music of real} merit is produced which should be added to the col- lection as pearls are added to a string. Homes in which such songs are sung, homes in which fathers and mothers sing such songs first to} and then with their children, are among the greatest! influences of civilization. More important than the} songs or the singing is the habit instilled in early life| of finding pleasure in simple family association with- to say about it: “The sound of curfew has not been heard in Buf- falo for over three weeks, the custom being consid- ered obsolete and useless by Mayor Jeffers and con- sequently discontinued. He is not going on record as saying that the bars have been thrown down for the young people to run loose on the streets at afi hours of the night, for the ordinance prohibiting this still stands on the ‘statute books of the city. But he has asked to have the ringing of the bell discontinued be- cause it did not aid the enforcement of the curfew law, and because it was more or less of a nuisance to meetings being held at the curfew hour in the city hall. The discontinuance of the ‘curfew was a small matter, but it was a step in the right direction.” a SS THE PRESIDENT’S CHAIR. The editors and publishers of the country have pre- sented to President Harding a chair made from the timbers of the old frigate Revenge built on Lake Champlain in 1776 and was the original warship of the American navy. The old frigate was sunk in an attempt to capture Ticonderoga in 1780 and lay in twenty feet of water until 1909. The chair was de- signed by a distinguished New York architect and is suitably carved. It is of dark oak in the natural fin- ish. It is an editorial chair de luxe, entirely fitting to be occupied by the first member of the newspaper profession to be chosen president. PaET eee SS kee THE RENTING HABIT. “When householders become renters by habit,” says the Portland Telegram, “that is, when they be- come willing to depend on other hands than their own to provide and maintain their homes for them, so- ciety loses much of that valuable individuality, that Personal independence, initiative and self-reliance that distinguishes a great people from a mass of people. “For three hundred years the American people have led the world in individuality, initiative and per- sonal independence. i People Are Puying ing.B Electric Supply & Telephone 483W GISILIIS IIS OTIS SESS SSMS MSS BM BY, x.

The moral breakdown during and since the war which has apparently carried the peo- ple to greater extremes than ever in history has reached its limit and the Providence Journal sees| hope of better things. It says: “Some people say the world is steadily deteriorat- ing. They think civilization is in imminent danger. They are shocked by what they regard as the exceed- ing immodesty of women’s dress. They see in the social excesses of the time a plain reflection of Rome in its degenerate days. They say we have lost our ‘soul.’ But they shut their eyes to the cheerful facts! of twentieth century life. | “Let them note that since the war the sum of $100,000,000 has been given to American colleges. Surely altruism is not dead when that huge amount is} contributed to such a cause. Nor are the benefactions| to hospitals, schools, libraries and other institutions! for the public welfare falling off. Every few days brings the announcement of some gift of this kind. “The world is not growing worse. It is simply un- settled, chiefly as a result of the war. Years will be required to bring about a prewar condition of mental and moral equilibrium. But we have every reason to expect that when the present time of unrest is over the world will be found to be right side up and bet- ter than ever.” The Springfield Republican is certain that Lady Surma, the president of the new Assyrian nation,| | day been decided upon?—B. 0.
