This is the price that must be paid for getting ahead of your age. Of course, there are self-elected martyrs who in- vite persecution, whose heroics is make-believe, and aking notoriety for fame. A good drubbing is not amiss for these pious frauds. But the real prophet, who loves his cause better than he leves his life, deserves something finer. He is the forerun- ner of better times. His song is the harbinger of the morn- ing. He wakens the drugged world with his call and lifts sodden society with the hoisting power of a great idea. His age may stone him, but the next will crown him, for the martyrs of today are the saints of tomorrow; and the verdict of heaven for the prophets who are stoned is “o whom the world was not worthy.” a . a , At Enumclaw, in celebration of Matt Starwich’s electio as sheriff, Robert Bridges, farmer-labor candidate for gov- ernor, was burned in effigy.

During the war, it obtained the services of white women in its box factory. ni Now they're gone. Japs have taken their places.

And when such laborers turn to new prophets the Grays Harbor Commercial Co. is ready to furnish the missiles with which to stone them. Open Up the Playfields Two months and nine days ago the city playfields and fleldhouses were officially scheduled to open their doors to Seattle's Girldom and Boydom. They're not open yet. And, according to the Investigation conducted by this paper, there's not even any sign of opening them this yeart The park board has laid down on the job. Instead of throwing open the fleldhousen to their respective communities—as has been the rule for the past half dozen years and more—where the school kids, working boys and girls and the grown-ups as well could intermingle, they are furnish- ing us with the excuse that they haven't the funds to continue the work As an appeasement to the pubdlto tmtignation they're telling us now that they have decided to turn over the supervision of the playficids to the school board-—if the latter is wMling to accept it. Why turn over the playfielfis to the school board? The eity charter specifically provides that the park boas! have contro! over and maintain the playtieids. Why pass the buck to the school authorities? Playfields and recreation work are distinct and soparate fields of Activity from those embraced by the school department. The piayfield« are more than a by-product of the school system. They embrace a larger sphere than do the schools, The working young men and women and the older folks have to be taken into consideration just as much as the school child. It ts clearty a case where, having spent the money Intended for the upkeep of playfields in other fields, the park board now intends toe bam- boozle the public into believing that the playgrounds would be better off dings in Cosmopolis that have been partitioned off ‘lin the hands of the schoo! authorities “Even granting this to be the case, all arrangements for the transfer should have been completed two months ago. If it is true that the mem bers of the board are more interested tn parks and boulevards and golf links than in playfields, then, in the words of Mayor Caldwell, “It is time to have some changes.” Ladies and gentlemen of the park board, the playfields and fleldhouses of this city must be opened—and it’s up to you to open them. ° Girls to Wed Young men on the brink of matrimony are warned against certain types of girls In @ pamphiet, “What to Tell Our Grown-Up Sons About Women.” The author, after telling you he knows all there’s to be known about the matter under consideration, says you must not marry— “Heavily-scented giris, gaudilydrensed giris, girin who sidie up to you, intensely religious girls, obviously modest girls, girls with sloping fore heads and straight, coarse hair, girls who are slovenly and artistic, and giris who drink wine.” This sort of leaves you up in the air, dorsn’t it? You get that all- dresed-up-and-no-place-to-go fecling? You begin to wonder where in the world all those happily married fellows got their wives. You think all the Osh in the matrimonial seas have been caught—all the desirable ones. You get discouraged. And just about that time she comes along. You forget about the perfume, the gaudy dreams, the sidling habit, the obviously modest, and don't even see the sloping forehead, nor realize the artistic side of her, and presto, quick! You're married! 80 much ‘for warnings. Why, man alive! they*ve been warning poor, weak man since the time of Hive! They’ll be warning your great-greut grandson, and, like as not, he'll go and do just as you do. Officious Officials Secretary of State Colby has barred from his Presence at conferences with newspaper men two representatives of the press at Washington. These men are barred because they accused Colby of using the con- | ferences with the newspay*r men as a micans of inspiring the press with views of his own. This sounds strange In America, dedicated to democracy, freedom and the right of the humblest citizen to criticise the highest official, recalls an outworn European offense known as “lese majeste.” of the time when “the king could do no wrong.” It is reminiscent of czars gpd redolent of kaisers. If these newspaper men print untruth about Colby, he haa his remedy at law. If they print indecencies or libel or any other thing that over steps the bounds lawfully set down in the statutes, the remédy is in the courts. The day of “lene majeste” tx dong with.
