We concede that there are two sides | to every question, if we are interested in | neither. Some folks are so certain that salva- tion is free, they neglect to pay their church pledges. Germany can beat the world, says Hitler; but not in humanity, decency, sanity, or civility. Lots of people do things to get pub- licity and then become surprised over the publicity they get. We may not fear appeals to racial or class hatred in this country, but some of _ the mua does stick. The man who is bound by no law, human or divine, ceases to be a man and becomes a monster.

Who’s going to admit it | or know wher it’s time to quit talking? Often people find themselves sudden- ly faced with new financial obligations whenever they are asked to contribute to a worthy. cause. There is no question that the people of America are more hysterical concerning war inEurope than the Europeans them- selves. ~ Even if war does break out over | there, why should that concern us? | The Citizens is running currently | daily some questions and answers under | tract audiences of 150,000 or more. | the famous Chicago Symphony orchestra | of grand opera, the heading “Test Your Knowledge,” and | they are widely read. Yesterday the first | question was an easy one for Key West | and read: “Name the city situated on the | last of the chain of Florida Keys.” The | answer is obvious. | What the United States needs, most | of all, isa few million patriotic citizens, | ready to serve the nation without thinking | about “the profits. But, upon second | thought; that wouldn’t do; for the abuse | that wonld be heaped upon them for their | bonest “and unremunerative efforts, would make their task unbearable. It is better | to be paid if we have to take it on the chin! | The Wagner Act authorizes 20,000 | Germar children to be absorbed by us. The people of the United States have the | kindliest feeling and pity for the destitute | children of Germany, but we, too, have thousands of children who are poorly fed, badly housed and ill clad. Charity begins | at honié and our own children come first. | Senatof Wagner was born in Germany and naturajjy is kindly disposed towards the | children of that country. This column re- peats and with some vehemence that Am- | erican children come first in any considera- | tion and under all circumstances, MUSICAL CHICAGO Chicago is known throughout the na- | tion for its preeminence in many lines of activity, being the world’s greatest rail- | road center, the greatest livestock and | grain market, and standing first in several | major industries. But Chicago’s cultural leadership is not so widely known, particularly in music. Yet, with its four symphony orchestras of | high rank, its brilliant opera, fine military bands, choral societies and other musical | organizations, it may well lay claim to be- | ing the musical capital of America. At its recent ninth annual Music Fes- tival in Soldiers’ Field, which seats 85,000 | persons, the great stadium was filled to | overflowing, many thousands being turned away, although the weather was extremely threatening. The free concerts given each evening during the summer at Grant Park often at- Here and others, besides the city’s finest mili- tary bands, are heard in programs of the world’s best music. This is only one of the many parks of the city where splendid concerts may be heard each summer eve- ning. During the winter there is a season featuring the world’s greatest singers; many certs, and innumerable other concerts and recitals in which the most famous foreign and American artists are heard. Really, Chicago should tell the world | | about these things, instead of permitting | itself to be known most widely for its gang- sters and shady politics. FOUR IDEAS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE We are urged by a reader to write something in the way of advice to young people and while we do not have any idea that many young people are anxiously watching for our utterance, we will take a chance. First of all, we would say to young men and women, about to begin life for themselves, that they should guard against | making the mistake that sets the acquisi- tion of money as the first objective of hu- | man activity. Secondly, we would urge them to seek an understanding of the expression that happiness is to be found within them- selves, rather than in other people or ex- ternal forces, In the third place, we would suggest that, in their youthful zeal and enthusiasm, they remember that the world is an old | place, populated by an ancient race, and that human relationships and customs are | not to be lightly challenged, or thrown in- to the ash-can. For the fourth, and last piece of ad- | vice, at least for this issue, we would in- duce them to seriously set their own values | upon all things and, once convinced of the | valuation of anything, that they live their life on the basis of their honest appraisal. This may seem like a small start to| the young person, who seeks the answers, but it is, we think, enough for a start. THE SCARS OF WAR’ Although the World War is more than 20 years past, its scars are still in evi- dence in many parts of France, where ef- forts to restore conditions to normal have been in progress ever since the Armistice. Recently a correspondent of the Chris- tian Science Monitor reported that at last | the area comprising the Picardy front, | where most of the British forces fought from 1914 to 1918, has been cleared of war debris and restored to the plow. In the Somme, Aisne and Champagne districts there is still much cleaning up to be done. The work is often dangerous because of unexploded shells and other live am- munition left in the battle zones, A num- ber of whole munition depots buried under- ground have been uncovered. Much of | the clearance job has-been let out to pri- | vate firms, which have:salvaged enormous | quantities of metal, including shells, bombs, hand grenades and every kind of munition material, besides many tons of barbed wire. On the Somme alone more than & million hand grenades and about 10,000 tons of metal have been gathered up, and the salvage operations have constituted a new industry in which.thusands of men have been employed. One wonders whether another war must come before the scars of the last one | have been obliterated, symphony con-: “\8:45 p. m. T. By Klebsattel, rector of music.
