JAMES E bishop of Washington, from cathedral in which are interred the of Woodrow Wilson surveye world today from his vantage gives fathers and mothers some think about. The world in general is becon ter, the bishop finds, but the home in particuls worse. He asks why the home is not keeping pace with commerce, industry, science, and has this to say: “Our age has witnessed the breaking down of conventions, the dissolution of ties and obligations that were once regarded as secure and sacred. It has been the revolt of youth against old restrictions and the larger liberty if not license those who refuse to acknowledge author- ity, whether in home, classroom or the larger sphere of social actior or now a ‘time has come to mock at form.’ “There is evidently no limit our search for independence and freedom of action.

It is little wonder that this is so, for laws will not be obeyed by men and women who lack deep moral and spiritual convictions. Lightly esteemed and quickly dissolved are sacred marital ties, where caprice of convenience dictates the desirability of new associations and larger freedom of action. “Where there are no such things as parental obligations, where love interprets ‘itself in terms of lust, we can hardly expect refinement and reverence in the sensitive and imitative youth. “If fathers and mothers think it clever to evade or disobey wholesome conventions or laws, if they make a travesty of relig- ion and disclose no reverence for sacred things and institutions, if there is noth- ing holy, and no discipline nor restraints are to be observed, except as leisure or convenience dictates, where, in the name of God and of all things decent, are we ultimately to come? “The problem of our time not eco- nomic or racial; it is domestic and social. It is not superficial; it cuts clear thru’ to the very footings of our boasted Christian civilization.” Latin Persists ORE high school students are study- ing Latin than any other language, according to Uncle Sam’s bureau of edu- cation. The bureau is quite pleased at this. It asserts that “Latin students sur- pass non-Latin students in the mastery -of other subjects.” Anything can be proved on paper. The dead languages persist largely be- cause if they were replaced by live and useful modern languages there wouldn’t be any jobs teaching them. Davis and he became the mesis of wolves. While other men passed the hard winter months at checkers by the fireside or doing the house chores, Davis tramped thru the snow of the woods, determined, merciless, on the tracks of wolves. It be- came his great pleasure, with an element of duty in it. He established a good practice as an attorney and at one time served in the legislature, but always there was the pic- ture of the little child in the dark woods at the mercy of the fangs and, often, his imagination gave to him the screams, the snarling and the crunching of bones. He sent abroad for hounds and taught them to track wolves only and to feel toward wolves as he did. The other day, Davis hung his rifle up above the mantle-piece, saying he had “r tired.” It took 1,200 dead wolves to wipe out the picture of that tragedy of 40 years ago but today the child of even a sheep may wander in Bruce county in safety. Study the events in your life that look big. They may become parts of you, for good or evil. Why Leave Home? HERE may be something in the idea of Mr. and Mrs. Curtis King, of Memphis, who are just leaving San Fran- cisco to shoot lions and tigers in Indo- China, that a great common danger will more securely weld the bonds of matri- mony. However, the necessity of going to Indo-China isn’t apparent. They might stand together, in Seattle or most any American city, exhibit 50 cents or more and be in common danger of bandits quite as bloodthirsty as any animal running loose in those far off jungles. nds shorn of ng only the ca na—with In Vie ing with h republic.
