Parents Championed
In Pastors Advice

BROCKTON, Mass. Dec. 2.-The
Rev. Albert M. Hyde. whose recent
suggestions to wives were widely cir
culated, has q new set Of command
ments for young men. Among them
are:
DO not speak Of the old gent and
the old woman Fathers and mothers
are a necessary evil in the present
system of things.
do not give all your attention to the
education OF the brains on the outside
Of your head. Football hair and a
letter on your Jersey are not a SUI
ficient training for life.
do not invest your nickel in a glass
Of beer, then criticise the other fellow
who has invested his in a savings bank.
Beer checks and savings bank checks
as investments are not In the same
class.
DO not put the money Of your tailor
and your washerwoman in SIS opera
seats and 81 theater tickets. They may
prefer to spend their earnings in some
other way"

GRAFT IN THE RARE REALMS
OF PEACE. a

There have not been wanting evi.
dences of the fact that the peace move
ment was in danger of falling into the
hands of the harpies of philanthropy
the class of the idle and self-im-
portant to whom nothing, so that it
afford publicity and the opportunity
Of canned oratory, is sacred. -,
But it will come as good deal more
of a shock to the country to learn that
even the high places of the organiza-
ton are not free of the faint of q
graft more sordid than that of mere
self advertisement.
When a gentleman of large fortune
acquired in coal, or suet, or beer
shoulders his way into the company
of statesmen seriously graphing with
the most important endeavor of al
enlightened age, it is to smile at the
merit which money seeks to appro
pirate; but when, under the guise o.
philanthropic interest, the CRATER
seeks profit under the cloak of human,
impulse, what was amusement becomes
disgust.

Daniel. I'VE have a large corps Of

GREETINGS FOR LAUREATE
OF CHILDHOOD.

One of the most touching incidents
of the Christmas season was the flood
of messages of good will which greeted
the gentle laureate of childhood, James
Whitcomb Riley For nearly year
he has been in failing health, and a
few months ago paralytic stroke de-
prived him of the use of his right arm.
1t hardly seemed like the holiday sea-
son without a new volume of Riley
verses, sweet with the SAVIOR of his
love for child life and beautiful with
the skill of loving illustrators. In
trinsically the OLD verses were as sweet
as any he could have produced
especially for the season, and they
have found their way, as usual, among
the artistic gifts. But there was a
pathos in the simple fact that he was
no longer able to contribute his annual
largesse of sentiment and good cheer
to the holiday feast.
But although he was confined to his
home under the heavy hand of attic
ton, he was by no means forgotten
by the thousands who have been made
happy by his work. Twelve hundred
letters containing Christmas greetings
reached him on Christmas Eve. They
breathed the tenderness and apprecia
ton of those who have followed hi
work for so many years, and have re
J garded him a. almost a. much q par

THE OoUNTRY,SDEMAND FOR
ROOSEVELT.

It must be apparent by this time to
everybody with the seeing eye and the
most casually discerning mind, that
the country wants Roosevelt. The old
enthusiasm for him is back with US.
It grows with every day. He goes to
Boston and the folks Of that sedate
old town organize . decorous young
riot in their eagernessf to see and
cheer him. He drops in on q meeting
in New York. quite unexpectedly, ID
cheered to the echo, and promptly ID
forced into the position Of being the
whole show.
The country wants somebody with
nerve enough to have something going
on. Mistakesf They talk vastly
about those Roosevelt made, but his
very mistakes commend him to the
vast mass of people because they were
the evidence of vigorous determination
to keep things moving. Moreover
most of them were not mistakes, al
the event has proved.
| Less than six months hence the ma
tional convention will meet in Chicago
Far from simmering down to accept

insistent pressure of sentiment an1onl
