The greatest panic prevails and peo-
pie are fleeing to the open country.
The earth continues to rock at half

the town of Chilapa, AZ kilometers to

PRAISE, NOT ABUSE
SHOULD Be EXTENDED
Any Man Helping Young PEG
pie is a Public Bene-
factor.

The Leader wishes to go on record
as being heartily in favor of any plan
tending toward elevatiug the morals
of the young people of WATERFOWL,
the nation, or the world IN general.
1t will not be found taking sides as
against christian spirit tending
toward the betterment of mankind.
From the inception of the Daily
Leader, it's management has con-
scientIously tried to mould public
opinion on the side of right and JUS
tice and if it ever swerve from that
pinnacle in newspaperdom. it will
eminate as mistake from the head
and not from the heart. Movements
have been launched in Watertown at
various times for the bet5erment of
lucal conditions. Some have been ex-
tremists IN their suggestions, but the
majority have been only plans for
action that should receive the hearty
cooperation of all classes of citizens,
save those possibly who have become
so degraded and blinded that they
themselves are beyond redemption and
SO Indifferent to the welfare of the
rising generation that they grope in
present darkness and are so entirely
short-sighted that they cannot vision
d picture OF the future. The Leader
is not given to sermonizing, but right
is right, and on that side it wishes to
cast its lot. The advice to parents
to luoK after their offsprings is good
advice as far as it goes, but fgur-
atlvely speaking, we are ''restlng
on our oars" if our advice and
action extend only that far. The
man who will suggest and work to
the end of securing places of lnno-
cent amusement for the young peo-
pie is a public benefactor and not
only deserving of commentator,
but of cooperation from fellow citi
