1t has been said that fool can
find fault, but that it takes a gen.
Jus to suggest a remedy for an
evil or to prevent wrong doing.
Last week we took issue with
some on the Sunday observing
question and left the article pretty
much without any suggestion of a
way to correct the evil. We have
had good many who have said
the idea is good all right and it's
trne. Really we never thought to
receive a word of either praise or
condemnation on the article writ
ten in desperation to fill space;
however, it was thoroughly be-
lieVed. But we have watched the
outcome of a lot of places where
the usual idea prevailed that. GER
tain places of amusement should
be closed. We know they should
have been closed, too. They we're
closed and the people who were in
strumental in closing them patted
themselves on the back, They
had done a great thing. They
had won out and were satisfied
that the matter was stopped there.
But it wasn't. The point we in
tend to make is right here. You
can take a thing away from fell
low but as sure as fate he is going
to have something to take the
place of that which once came in
to his life. 1t may not necessarily
be the thing taken from him. 1t
may be that he will resort to
things not quite so apt to be ques-
tionable, but nevertheless be is
going to do something. To this
end we contend that every time a
thing is taken from human be-
ing that he is going to have some
thing in the place of what he had.
OF course no two persons are con-
stituted alike, but the same things
primarily are in all of US. We do
not all like the same things. We
all do not look at things just ex-
actly alike. If we did, some OF
the things that we have someone
else would want, and we'd have 9
terrible time if some one of US
should want some one thing and
all want it at the same time,
When a city or society, when 9
class or church tears down a thing
someone else started, it is the duty
of the reformers to give the de-
feated ones something in the place
of what was taken from him. II
need not necessarily be an expens.
i've thing. We know of two boys
in Oklahoma who are at the In
dustrial school, not because they
were naturally mean, not because
they did not have lot of brains
and were shrewd and smart little
fellows. They were to q certain
extent creatures of destiny. To q
certain extent made what they
were by their home influence.
But when the two, who we're min
ors, we're no longer allowed the
privilege of the pool room where
they often spent the evenings
with rough and hardened men,
they did not stay at home; they
did not stop the ways they had
learned. They got together in a
barn and night after night resort
ed to amusement that a man older
and more experienced would have
known was an awful and precar-

the neatness and dispatch with
which they did the job and the
way in which they concealed their
crime showed that the little fell
lows were gifted with q lot of
brains and if they were encourage
ed would have made, and may yet
make smart men. But the vicious
things the little fellows pracEeed
in that old barn will always stay
with them through life and may
some day be handed down to q
posterity not responsible for what
their ancestors did,. When those
little boys were excluded, from
that pool hall they had no place to
go. There was a library to be
sure, but they had read every
book it it. They had to be still
there, too. The rules of the in
stitution were for perfect quiet

his few hours spent in the place.
The boys we're not very quiet
when at home-they wanted to
know things, they wanted to ex-
ercise, they wanted to do some
thing and they could not do these
things at home. They we're not
naturally vicious. but they were
boys. The two boys who did the
job of getting into the cash regis.
ter were the only ones who we're
intercepted and sent away, but
several other little fellows were
started wrong, were started on
the first road to deception and

meetings in some out o: the way
place. In that place there are
six Protestant churches and they
could, at a nominal expense. to
each of them,. maintain and keep
a public gymnasium in operation
for the little folks, girls and boys
alike. But they won't. They
closed the pool hall but they didn't
go far enough. The same condi.
tons that hold in towns the size
of the one just mentioned exist in
nearly all towns. and Liberal is
not exempt. The curfew may ring

at home but some of them abso-
lutely will not. What will they

CHINESE REPUBLIC

Wilson is giving serious consideration to
tho question OF formal recognition OF the
emily has not settled definitely the ques-
ton OF recognition and II was believed
tonight that several conferences on the

net would be necessary before the ad-

has dealt with the Chinese republic only

in better position TO cnrry on her loan
