AN EDITORS ENEMIES

In the profession OF journalism it is
perfectly understood that an EDITORS
usefulness is to be judged largely by
the character Of the opposition to him.
Enemies deal in no batteries. If you
want to measure an editor or any
public man accurately, first find out
who bis enemies are and there will
probably be no need to ask why they
are his enemies. Their attitude to-
ward a newspaper tells the story
as nothing else can of that newspapers

ARE AMERICANS AMUSEMENT
TAD?

TAD?
Recently Sir William Mitchell Ram
sey, the eminent his oVian and arch.
eoIogist, lectured in Chicago and ex
pressed deep concern over the modern
passion for amusements. He said that
men and women today care too much
for diversion ard entertainment, and
are being led away from the realm Of
the spirit. Mrs. A. r Hlnckley of
Baraboo says the following from q
Chicago paper expresses her senti-
ments on the subject:
Senator Lewis, fresh from bis CLASH
Cal studies, will remind us of the cry
of the Roman populsce for bread and
circus stunts. or course, others will
direct attention to forms of amuse-
ment that we have done away with
on moral and spiritual grounds-cock
fighting for example, prize fight

which, a generation ago, were not

as legitimate.
To some extent the democratic ation
OF certain amusements has brought
about the great change. The movies
and the variety houses, the dance halls
and the growth of musical agencies of
all sorts render emustment easy and
inexpensive. Still, other factors, less
natural, have been st work. The GO

The women came and squatted about the rim of the circle. beating upon tomtoms. clapping their hands in time to the steps of the dancers and joining in the chant of the warriors. In the center of the circle sat Tarzan of .he Apes-Waziri king of the Waziri; fer like bis predecessor, he was to take the name of his tribe as his own Fast. CT and faster grew the pace of the dancers, louder and louder their wild and savage shouts The women rose and fell in unison, shrieking now at the tops of their voices. The spears were brandishing dercely, and as the dancers stopped down and beat their shields upon the hard tramped earth of the village street the whole sight was as terribly primeval and savage as though it were being staged in the dim dawn of humanity, countless ages in the past
 As the excitement waxed the ape man sprang to his feet and joined in the wild ceremony. In the center of the circle of glittering black bodies he leaped and roared and shook his heavy spear In the same mad abandon that enthralled his fellow savages. The last remnant of his civilization was for. gotten He was a primitive man to the fullest now. reveling i'm the free dom of the fierce, wild life he loved, gloating in his kingship among these wild blacks

ley dotted with stunted trees and cov- cred with many great powders. And on the far side of the valley lay what appeared to be a mighty city, its great walls, its lofty spires, it's turrets, nina rets and dOmes showing red and vel low in the sunlight Tarzan was yet too far away to note the marks of ruin to him it appeared a wonderful city of magnificent beauty, and in imagina- ton be peopled it's broad avenues and its huge temples with a throng of happy, active people.
 For an hour the little expedition rested upon the mountaintop, and then TarZan led them down into the valley below There was no trail, but the way was less arduOus than the ascent of the opposite face of the mountain had been. Once in the valley their progress was rapid. so that 1t was still light when they halted before the tow ering walls of the ancient city.
 The outer wall was fifty feet in height where it had not fallen into ruin. but nowhere as fur as they could see had more than ten or twenty feet 1f the upper courses fallen away. It was sul formidable defense. On several occasions Turzan had thought that be discerned things moving be- hind the ruined portions of the wall near to them, as though creatures were watching them from behind the bull warks of the ancient pile. And often he felt the sensation of unseen eyes upon him, but not once could he be sure that 1t was more than imagina- ton.
 That night they camped outside the city. Once, at midnight. they were awakened by Q shrill scream from be- yond the great wall It was very high at first. descending gradually until it ended in a series of dismal moans It had a strange effect upon the blacks. almost paralyzing them with terror while 1t lasted and it was an hour be- fore the camp settled down to sleep once more. In the morning it required considerable encouragement and urg- Ing on Tarzan's part to prevent the blacks from abandoning the venture pm the spot and hastening back across the valley toward the cliffs they had sealed the day before But at length by dint of commands and threats that

he would enter the city alone, they agreed to accompany him.
 For fifteen minutes they marched along the face of the wall before they discovered a means of ingress. Then they came to a narrow cleft about twenty inches wide Within a flight of concrete steps, worn hollow by cen turies of use rose before them to dis appear at 8 sharp turning of the pas sage a few yards ahead.
 Into this narrow alley Tarzan made his way, turning his giant shoulders sideways that they might enter at alL Behind him trailed his black warriors. At the turn in the cleft the stairs end ed and the path was level but it wound and twisted in a serpentine fashion. until suddenly at a sharp angle it deb0uched upon a narrow court across which loomed an inner wall equally as high as the outer This m- ner wall was set with little round tow CTS alternating along its entire summit with pointed monoliths. In places these had fallen and the wall was ruined, but it was in a much better state Of preservation than the outer wall
 Another narrow passage led through this wall, and at its end Tarzan and his warriors found themselves in a broad avenue. on the opposite side of which crumbling edidces of hewn granite loomed dark and forbidding Upon the crumhled debris along the face of the buildings trees had grown, and vines wound in and out of the hollow, staring windows, but the building di- rectly opposite them semed less over grown than the others and in a much better state of preservation. It was a massive pile, surmounted by an enOr- nous dome. At either side of its great entrance stood rows ot tall pillars. each capped by a huge, grotesque bird carved from the solid rock of the mon oliths.
