sACRILEGIOUs YOUTHS.
BY EDWIN A.. NYE.

The Memorial day parade was pass
ing by.
The Sons Of Veterans, acting as es-
cort of honor, were in advance of the
old soldiers, some Of whom were
marching, and some, too feeble to
march, were being conveyed in auto
mobiles.
Suddenly, out from a cross street.
came an auto with its 'honk, honk,
honk." 1t was occupied by two gig
Cling girls and two callow boys.
The machine plunged into the parade
just behind the band, the silly girls
gfggffng and the silly boys making
noises after their kind.
And thus the machine remained so
far as the present writer could see.
An old lady who stood on the side
walk-she was the widow OF a veteran
exclaimed as the tears rolled down
her cheeks:
"Oh, what q sacrflege!'
It was sacrilege indeed OF course
the fippant youngsters did not SO re-
gard it. They were out for a holiday
Lark and were unconscious of any spt,-
cial frreverence
That is the pity OF it
The incident is typical. A disregard
of sacred things is common to a GER
tain class Of youths
To these pert young people q day set
apart for patriotic uses makes no ap-
peal The flag is only a bit OF bunting
without significance. And patriotism !?
Why, that is fit only for old men who
wear bronze buttons.
Is it not so?
And this uncaring, Indifferent dispo-
stt1on is often found to exist along
side seeming contempt for parental
authority. a disregard for the aged
and a general recklessness for the
rights of others.
know what wanted to do with the
saucy quartet Of the auto?
l wanted to take them, male and fe-
male, one by one, across my knee and
teach them the flrst principles Of de-
cency and respect.
Who is TO blame?
Parents and teachers. It is easy to
cultivate IN the heart OF a child an
understanding OF the self sacrifice Of
patriotic endeavor and deep seated
love OF American institutions.
No child thus Instructed would do
what these maiapert youngsters did on
Memorial day.
