Why the plous howl concern. ing the Skarin murder? The Holy Bible of the reading public ts com posed of murder, bloodshed and sensual fables. Certainly publish the proceedings. If the facts ere suppressed, tt will require the whole of the Seattle police to subdue the morbid women who will riot for seats at the trial, who are the parents of the school girls I see on downtown streets, with their painted faces and suggestive amiles as they parade by the hotels where the lounge Usards loiter I suggest the moralists purtfy thelr own homes and cease to meddle with the prow. MRS. GRAY, 606 Third ave. Bible Class States Attitude Editor The Star: In reply to the request you made about the Bkarin trial, we wish fo thank you for the interest you are manifesting in your patrons, “ We, as the Bible clans of the Vashon Federated Sunday school, wishing and working for the beet for our young people, would much prefer to see lenn sensational headlines and recitals of her brasen atti. tude, for such things only help the young to try to copy someone who in getting public notice. A few years ago anyone powdering and penciling eyebrows and lashes was looked vopn as a sport of the low type, but today it hae become so common that, we are ashamed to say, we see it tn our churches, Why? Because we parents do not wish our children to call us old foies, and do not do our duty. In your article of September 12, entitled “Immorality Growing, Bays Salvation Army,” the last parneraph reads: “Parental neglect is largely to blame.” Wo, as parents, do not like to admit ft, but feel eure you are right about It. As an editor, you have « large opportunity to help atay this immorality, ae our young people are largely influenced by the daily prem. We would say, “Publish the testimony as given, without making erlne look attractive.” Respectfully yours, BIBLE CLASS OF FEDERATED SUNDAY SCHOOL, ie CaM MUTOH, Secretary pro Tom, Vashon. Discord in Your Consciousness Editor The Star You invited the readers of The Star to tel! you how they would handie the reports of the Skarin murder trial 1 am not going to attempt to even advise an experienced editor how to handle his Job, but I do want to give you some of my thoughts Any newspaper that has “wcandal™ headlines to attract tte readers’ attention Is putting discord into said readers’ consciounness. A person who starts out on his daily work in the morning ts, or whould be, pure in heart end soul, and tn this state of consciousness he or she should be very successful, but if they pick up a newspaper and see heavy headlines telling of a horrible murder, immediately dis. cord has entered their consciousness. There is a daily newspaper edited and printed in Boston, Mam. which has no scandal headlines on its pager, and its renders may never fear of getting a shock when picking this paper up and com: mencing to read {ta truthful news. I admire The Seattle Star for its straightforward manner tn giving the news to ite renders but I would think a great deal more of tt ff it would eliminate these aforesaid contaminating headlines and news. 1am, very sincerely yours, GEO, K. HANILAND, 2919 12th ave. W. Two Inches on Inside Page FAitor The Star By all moans give the Skarin case the prominence It deserves—a couple of inches per day on an Inside G. B. K LOGG, 2415 BE. Marion st. \He Wants News Straight and Uncensored Editor The Star Don't knuckle down to any wornan’s club, or man's etther The Star to get all the news, and don't want any of it condensed. 1. B. &., Holly I take |Leave Off Embellishment and Garnish Editor The Star: You ark how you should edit the Skarin case. The answer ts, don't let your reporters weave too much from thelr own imagination. Pin them down to facts and reasonable, logical conclusions and deductic drawn from these facta, I'll give you an example of cheap “hokum,”’ One of the Seattle dailies had a headline something like this: “Slayer Primps After Leaving Body,” followed by hale a column of pure bunk. This story was based upon Mise Skarin’s statement that sho straightened her clothes after the slaying. “Primps” is @ distortion and inclines the average reader to the opin. jon that Miss Skarin treated the happening Mghtly and rose after committing the deed to primp, amirk and powder her nose before the mirror, whereas it 1s reasonable to assume that since whe did not intend to announce the killing she merely made herself presentable for the street. Constant reference in made to the finshing eyes, the amie, light laughter and gay manner of the accused In the ordeal of exami. nation by the police and the prosecuting attorney. It ts logical to assume that the reporters have exaggerated tn order to turn out a “human interest story.” This young woman must be filled with terror at her predicament and any fleeting indications to the contrary represent her efforts to put up a bold or brave front. It is right that all the facts of thin case be lald before the public; but ft fs unnecessary and unjust to embellish, garnish and epics up every morsel. This case does not involve any great principle; {t can personally interest but very few. Give it a amall headline and relegate it to the second or third page, where tt belongs, and keep the first page for war news and news of the rail and coal strikes and other matters that touch the masses vitally. Yours truly, A. FRENCH, Second ave. Opposes Sensationalism in Case Editor The Star: I notice you are asking for public opinion on how to handle the Clara Skarin care. I like that attitude, for it shows your desire to publish your paper to suit the majority, But here's hoping the majority doesn't want all the sordid details that will, no doubt, come out in @ trial of that nature For the good of the young and plastic minds that read your paper every night, I want to Join forces with those who are opposing sen. sationaliam in this case, May Clara Skarin, have justice and the public have a wholesome, clean paper every evening is my wish, Very respectfully, (MRS) MARTHA STEPHENSON, Port Orchard, Business College of Kugene, Ore, wins first prize of 1,000 francs tn contat based on general musical knowledge for planista at American Conserva- tory of Music, Mins Myra Palache, of San Francisco, wins second award, +500 francs, RECORDS DANCE MUSIC Come Al (U'm Through with Romany Love.
