THE WHY OF A People who live uear pub- e parks n r them as pretty enhance the beauties of their surroundings; it is a indeed to have public parks nearby | to provide pleasant vistas; it is grati- tylng to have their presence tending | 10 increase real estate vaiues, or to maintain them at a satisfactory fevel. These are by-products of the park system. The city’s object in deveiop- ing & park system, however, is not to throw such advantages into the laps of individuals and do nothing more. The parks in addition are for the wnjoyment of the people as a wholc. Opposition Ly Belvidere residents to having boys fish in the pond in | Stanley Quarter park, which has taken the form of a petition to the the city authorities, seems predicat- about disobeying a signal, frequent- |and this quite easily.

A sound public policy would have it that the more of the public—includ- | ing boys and girls—who use the parks the more good the parks do for rising citizenship. We believe such residents of Bel- videre who have signed this petition are unduly and frightened. Boys wending their way to the park and enjoying themselves in it should prove a delight to ey and the spirits rather than consid- ered a detriment.

The nationalists are not permitting the Japanese at Tsinan to halt their drive, howeve and while complaints were dispatch- od to the League of Nationa and to President Coolldge regarding the in- terference by the Japanese the ad- vance scemingly continued toward Tientstn, the chief port of North China. Should the Japanese con- tinue attempting to interfere with the Southern drive in that city scarcely mare evidence will be need- ed that Nippon has designs upon northern China, that she is adopting military and naval measures to pro- teet her assumed political interests, and that she is intent upon saving Peking from capture hy the Na- tonalists if at all pessible. Both Tsinan and Tientsin are the Japanese— through a Japanese owned railroad from Tsingtao on the const, and Ticntsin by boat. Even should the legions of Chiang Kai- shek be denled the right to ture” these two cities that interfer- ence alone probably will ap- not halt the advance of the Nationalists to- rward Peking. It would be more dif- flcult for the Japanese to prevent the capture of Peking once the Nation- alists reached it environs; hut even that might be done if the Japanese continue their present policy of fighting the Natlonalists without o declaration of The northern dignitaries of the Peking govern- ment, however, seemed to have littfe in the abllity of Japanese to protect them, for as soon as the Na Tientein they began to flee, mostly to Drajren, at the end of the Man- churian peninsula, which undoubt- cdly will remain far from the smoke of battle. The Chinese revolution war. ionalists arrived near and the counter-revolutions have been going | on since and with the rcon- stantly strength of the Southern government it is at least probable that the grand finish will come in 1928 with the capture of Peking. And even that may not end it. 1911 increasing “LIARS" IN OOURT One's curlosity is frequently aronsed as to what punishment could be meted out on a count of per- Jury against supposed ‘“liars” in court. Aceording to the prosecution, the defense witnesses _quently make sport of the truth; to listen to the defense the prosecution witnesses, #tool pigcons and all, are not to he trusted. At such rare instances when both sides project the same profound thesis at the same time one's sympathics go forth to the judge, who is forced to choose between the two sets of wit- nesses affer being told by the learned legalitles that some of the lawyers, important’ witnesses “are not telling | or indications to that On the strength of the many state- tha assumption the other ments supporting that side the witnesses “on are lying, one is inclined to the | all too fre- | Witneases are worda. Gradually the child begina to supposed to tell the whole truth and recognize the printed words. The nothing but the truth, and call on third stage is ability to associate the Creator to witness their oaths; idess with the printed words, and 'yet one needs to heed only the increases this sonorous ejaculations of the attor- neys to realize that the solamn ability to read phrases and sentences oaths do not deter some of the wit- and obtain their meaning. After this nesses—on the been accomplished thoroughly | coupse—from giving the kind of books and testimony they “other side,” of happened to give. Perhapd it is sometimes difficult accomplished liar, The most the | prosecutor can do, it seems, is to give vent to his opinjon or bellet. The judge, in giving a decision, by im- plication cannot lhelp telling the 'world whom he lelleved to be creditable on the witness stand. Carrying this series of observations out to its logical eonclusion, one comes to the supposition that if all alleged court liars were to be turn- ¢d into defendants on charges of perjury there would be more of these cases than any other. As lawyers are supposed te thrive on litigation one wonders why more of such liti- gation is not manufactured; it ,would tend to line the legal pockets and purlfy the air of untruthfulness at the same time. Lawyers have a vast advantage over editors. They can brand the | testimony of opposing witnesses as untrue, blandly say they are lying, |and need answer to no one but their 1 God. Editors are more hamstrung in {such things, and thelr ethics, al- though permitting qisagreements with truthful and untruthful gentlemen alike, bar the use of the . “short and ugly” word.
