Safety Week HIS is safety week in Seattle. One man drowned when a canoe overturned One girl dead in an auto wreck. One speeder killed by a bullet from a deputy sheriff. A department store messenger robbed of his funds in mid- day by bandits on the most prominent corner in town. A raid on a gasoline filling station frustrated by a patrol- man under the bandits’ fire. That was Monday’s record. This is safety week in Seattle! Dirt! HE two boys, Leopold and Loek, rich men’s sons hfld in Chicago on a charge of atrocious murder, spent their adolescent days reading and discussing the dirt of life. They read and discussed the same things,;—things bear- ing on sex—that YOUR boy or YOUR girl, perhaps, are discussing now; certainly the same things that your NEIGHBOR'S boy and girl are discussing now, in school and college. -AND YOU CAN'T TOUCH DIRT WITHOUT GETTING SOILED. It is an old truism that is forgotten by a lot of people, nowadays. Soft mothers and fool fathers let their sons and daugh- ters read Freudian literature, trash about the uglier phases of sex, and say: “Our children are so much were!” It is a cold fact that truck of that sort is under constant discussion between young men and young women in their later ’teens and earliest twenties, in nearly every “intel- lectual” circle in the land. One of the first signs of it is a sort of weariness of out- look; a disillusioned attitude that is a wretched thing among the young. They are children, after.all. They are in search of the , . thrills of life, as the young of every species is. c BUT WHEN THE THRILLS THAT COME WITH THE Seniuiinie ci i DISCOVERY OF NEW AND HORRIBLE FACTS, HAVE " cor the paid cireu nd the highest wade ring hort, slightly bald, very “big gers have “hurrah” of the barker d r t y ble to the 10st guishable to th freaks are > away which the mal the strong-scented enclosure in has n the » perform on are used feeling that all they're witne But The Marvels of 1840 BY ALBERT APPLE B AC oy M ; ‘ more advanced than we gross wh ye with mirrors aboard, and VANISHED, THERE STILL REMAINS THE DESIRE FOR NEW THRILLS.
