ALTERED MORAL STANDARDS. ~~ eam GROVE for a generation has; leven the chief citadel of camp-meet- | ing morality, [ts companion resort, Asbury Park, may have relaxed its ri it Ocenn’ Grove held fast tict letter of propriety, Its 1 to th name was synonymous with unal- terable opposition to frivolity, There dancing end card playing were frowned on and the cut of bathing costumes was regulated to the last half inch of decorum, The inroids made by worldliness in this city of orthodox traditions may well excite the concern of its di- rectors, Its auditorium, or “mecting-house,” is now profaned by roller- skating. Opera singers have shocked their audiences by appearing in decollete gowns, The increasing popularity of moving picture shows has caused apprehension. Bands have incurred suspicion by playing tunes not conducive to moral elevation. The importation of liquor in cans masquerading.as sardine boxes has revealed a demand for intoxicants. What to Ocean Grove seems a fall from grace on the part of its fre- quenters is merely the outcropping in this last stronghold of Puritanism of the idea of freedom: of conscience which is modifying old standards of | conduct, It is the assault of personal liberty on the barriers of restric- | tion. In every day life only the essentials of morality are now required | of a man. Is he honest and truthful? Is his life clean? Does he re- spect the sanctity of his neighbor's home? Granted that the fundamentals of moral conduct are observed, society does not ask whether its mem-| bers play “bridge” or billiards or smoke too much. Even the ly under which Ocean Grove was founded is no longer unduly in- quisitive about card playing and dancing. Very estimable citizens are allowed to violate the speed law habitually snd on Sunday the ex- cise law by taking a drink at their clubs without loss of standing, It is not exacted of a man that he shalhlive-like an anchorite. The so- calied. smali vices, it is recognized, fumish outlets for inclinations which if pent’ up might produce an explosion. The type of normal American is not the man “too good for human nature's daily food,” but the one who observes the spirit of the moral law while treating as negligible the supplementary Jaws imposed Gn it by societies of devout persons who with a mistaken zeal seek to | = et “SS vening World Daily Mag az Bluthng.
