PUBLICITY AND THE SLUMS

1t is slckcning to have the stage ex-
plot the lives OF the vicious under the
pretcnsc Of uplifting morals. But the
theatre has to be sought out, and its
opportunity for scattering poison is
slight in comparison with the magazine
which is thrust before the young and in
nocent without warning. Taking for
themes the political rottenness of GER
tain cities, two or three family maya
zines have OF late laid bare in all its
foulness the degenerate life of the
Sums
Nothing new or startling can be said
about the slums to stir up revolution
and reform. 1t is all well known to
the respectable dwellers in cities. Con
ditions. remain the same generation
after generation, although the person.
mel changes as strange types of human
ity DRIFT IN from all quarters OF the
globe. Noble men and women are
striking at the root Of the evil, and the
wisdom of printing the details of crime
IN home publications is questionable.
The curiosity Of the weakminded
about low life is already keyed to the
point of frenzy and Of danger.

THE COOL OF THE DAY.

The plan Of some OF the Washington
department workers to get more good
out Of daylight by changing the sched-
ule of the day seems to be more practi-
cal than disturbing the clock. In Eng
land it has been proposed to get up
with the daylight instead of at S or 6
o'clock, old style, and take up the rou-
tine of activities in the usual order.
This would leave longer spell Of day
light after the workday is done. The de-
partment clerks propose to get to work
earlier by the clock as it stands. This
is simple.
The worker with hard stint knows
better than to loaf in the cool Of the
day. By 9 o'clock in the morning,
when department Office work begins,
the sun is high and the atmosphere
already warmed up about half Of the
year. II the Office man starts work at
8 o'clock and quits at $3.50 instead Of
at AGO he gets that long afternoon play
spell the English clock reformers yearn
for and is in better trim for an outing
than when he is chained to the office
grind through the hottest seven hours
Of the twenty-four. 1t is an easy matter
to upset habit and settle it down again.
But it will not be easy to make the
hand on the dial tell another tale from
that which the world has lived by since
clocks were first invented.

DESTROYERS OF SUNDAY.

New York's law and order forces
started promptly to inaugurate de-
cent observance of Sunday at Coney
Island this year. Naturally there is a
sharp protest against drastic regula-
tons and harsh enforcement Of them.
The Sunday question is Of interest to
the whole country, and in most Sec
tons it turns upon the claim OF the few
that they have right to destroy the
Sunday of the many. The few, how
ever, are not always the law and order
people.
1t is often said that if put to vote
strict Sunday laws could not be main
tanned. But in New York, where the
people have chance, reckless and
disorderly pleasure seekers are held in
check on Sunday. Nearly all the SUBJ
urban communities, some of them
neighhors Of Coney Island and others
ten to twenty miles distant, suppress
Sunday ball playing and beer drinking
Each neighborhood looks after itself,
and it may be that the people would
not vote to suppress at Coney Island
what they do suppress around their
own homes. By going too far Sunday
pleasure seekers invite suppression Of
their pastimes. They are the real des
troyers Of Sunday. Pleaders for an
open Coney Island claim it is the only
resort Of the poor. But it is the poor
who suffer most from wide open Sun
day.
