OF various kinds, he has come a cropper over

know that District Attorney Whitman has
turned down Comstock's charges with the

vugarity. The play is neither Indecent,

When the Stage Is a School

TNHE State of Arkansas has done we'll in
i passing its comprehensive child labor law.
1t has erred only In CHASING the child actor
with children in hazardous employments, -
and deharrins him from work when under
sixteen. The stage at its worst may be
hazardous indeed, but under proper condi-
tions 1t is n valuable school for the child
of exceptional dramatic talents.
What is needed is not prohibition but reg
ulation. Massachusetts and Illinois have had
an experience with prohtbitive law The
verdict of the casual observer, as we'll as the
expert, is that It fails to work where it is
most needed. Realizing the lack of public
opinion behind the law, the manager of the
undesirable theatre brazenly evades it, while
his reputable brother fears to allow children
in houses where they would be acting under
the best of conditions in the best of plays.
Colorado and Louisiana have done better.
They have placed the licensing of child
actors in the hands of the Juvenile courts.
requiring the manager to sign a bond to
comply with certain desirable conditions as
to education, salary and guardianship. The
child and the public have both benefited.
Arkansas, In this respect is not helping the
child 1t is only hndering dramatic art.

goal The march of social evolution has pro-
ceeded along well-defined laws of progress. 1t
is wrong to say that we are cropping in the
dark. We are moving ever onward with an
increasing impetus and momentum. Every
now and then gigantic cataclysm like the
French Revolution or the war in Europe
shakes the elements underneath the sub
strata of society. These are but incidents in
the great drama of progress. We need not
fret Let us note them and pass them by.
For out of the travail and struggle of the
ages is sure to come civilization where war
and bloodshed, poverty and shame, crime
and degradation shall be no more: where
every man and every race shall live and
work in all the power of their manhood;
where fine abilities shall 60 hand in hand
with stil finer sensibilities; where every
child shall have full opportunity to develop
the best that is in it, and where they that
are greatest among us shall be our servants.

Feed America First.



Almost any little boy or girl understand
why might have to pay more for some
things which imported into this country
from war districts. That is matter over which
have control. We have 10 pay what Is
asked go without.
But can any little hoy girl tell why we
should pay more for things which exported?
Alas and alack. the old-fashioncd excuse that
they who own the stuff anxious TO be richer
no longer sutiCes. We are trying to get away
from the idea that a nation of cannibals
feeding on each other. And there is such a
simple way to fix it, possibly a number OF
simple ways. National governments are granted
the control over their exports and imports How
easy il would be to pass a Law saying that no
goods should be exported so long as the price
here at home is higher than before the war
rumors began How would that be?
We have always rather liked the slogan See
America First" Isn't Feed America First"
