Cause or Effect?

Kansas proposes a law, soon TO be
acted upon, providing for a marriage
commission of three In each county
TO demand medical examination and
proper education on the marriage re-
lation for those applying for licenses,
as we'll as an announcement of all
marriages 80 days before the cere-
mony is performed. Ohio will soon
reconsider somewhat similar law,
once defeated. Oregon already has a
regulation OF the sort.
Dr. Edward Amherst OFT Is one of
the thinkers who has been putting
his ideas into concrete form for the
benefit of the general public. The
education and medical. examination
OF all applicants. for n marriage
license IL. he considers, the only way
TO begin a solution OF the divorce
problem. He has lectured on the
question over 1000 times.
This Is striking at causes. not only
for this generation but for the next
as well. The second step will be the
Introduction OF such education in all
the public schools No boy or young
man can step into the position OF
railroad president and fill 1t success
fully with no knowledge whatever OF
railroad matters. No one can be a
court reporter until he has studied
lstenography No person can succeed
in any line until he or she has been
trained to IL.
Then, why expect that two persons
OF necessarily different ideas and
ideals can make a complete success
OF the greatest undertaking in the
world-marriage- they are
ignorant of the very rudiments OF II
Ignorance is sin" So instead oil
worrying about the increase OF the
divorce percentage In this country
why not strike at cause and make
the act OF marriage a thing TO be
more seriously considered?

Let's Stand Up

And the Star Spangled Banner in
triumph shall wave DER the land OF
the free and the home OF the brave"
The strains OF the song rang out
through the crowded theater, the peo-
pic clapped heartily-but not a single
person OF the hundreds in the house
arose TO honor the song as everyone
used to do.
Imagine an English, French or
German audience sitting through the
rendition of the national anthems of
their respective countries. A person
who did 1t over there would be Kissed
and booted
or course, we're still very young
sort OF nation and as a whole peo-
pie we fear ridicule more than any
thing else in the World. I'm spite or
our Wanted independence of thought,
we hate to be laughed at, even by
each other. Repression OF emotion
in public places is a national charac-
te~istic. And so, for fear of exciting
amused comment from those who
haven't anything better to do than
TO criticize. we sit on our patriotism
except In times OF war.
Come on, everybody, let's stand up
when The Star Spangled Banner"
is played Let's applaud for II and
whistle and sing too as the band
plays. II we feel like il. Let's show
the world that we're not ashamed to
show our patriotism out loud.

Many Lenten Self Denials
Are Of No Consequence

In the March Woman's Home Com
panion. DR.. Charles E. Jefferson, pas.
tor OF the Broadway Tabernacle in
New York City, says Of the obserya-
tion of Lent:
ITO drop a few pleasures for a
brief season. only to plunge into
them with new zest as soon as that
season is ended; to cut of sundry
iuxuries for a few days. only to take
them up again with others added
TO force oneself perfunctorily into q
pious frame OF mind at the dictate
OF an ancient custom. and then jump
out OF II at the earliest opportunity,
surely this smacks OF the artificial.
and can accomplish no permanent
good. BY linking religion with petty
and insignificant self-denials like the
giving up OF cigar or q box of
chocolates, and by magnifying the
Importance OF paltry acts of penance.~
there Is great danger of degrading
the whole idea Of piety, and making
Christianity seem a superficial and
fiimsy thing.
THE surface OF life is just now de-
handing so much attention that
many or us do not care to look with
In. Life in great cities has COM
PEELED us to consider with absorbing
gaze the exterior. Our lives are
lived under the eyes OF others, and
we are solicitous as to what they see.
= Reputation was never worth so
much as ii Is today, and we must
have II even at the expense of our
character. We place unwholesome
emphasis on externalities We are
expert judges OF the skins OF things.
We dote on appearances. We are de-
voices OF the surface. We are adopts
in the use of enamels, varnishes, and
veneers. We gild many things, and
whitewash many others. We make
show even though we have little to
