A MOTHERS STRUGGLE

There are few stories which pre-
sent in SO fascinating and thrilling
manner some of the vital problems
which women are sometimes called
upon IT, solve. as Should Mother
Tel? as nicturized by William Fox.
The mother in the story is a woman
in an ordinary station of life, the
parent al beautiful girl.
She is suddenly thrust into a stu
alton where action is demanded and
where such actions must either blight
her daughters life and honor or her
own good name, conscience and her
duty to God.
On witnessing this picture one is
confronted with problem that
seems at first, to be unanswerable.
1t seems almost unjust for a frail
woman to be called upon to face such
q question.
But since the beginning of time, it
has been said, women have been
called upon to shoulder most of the
burdens and crosses of the world. In
all mothers there is the world-old,
primitive instinct for the protection.
OF their young. When mother is
called upon to violate that instinct,
even though it be to save the life of
an innocent man, her first wild inn
pulse is to do all, to sacrifice all, for
her own. Later comes reaction.
Can she stand by and permit the
blood of an innocent man to be shed?
He is a young man, young man with
everything in the world before him.
He, too, is the son of an adoring
mother. Should she permit this
promising life to be thus needlessly
snuffed out? Can she permit it?.
But-her child! the little babe that
she nursed. now grown to beautiful
young womanhood How can she
permit her life to be ruined-her
chance for future happiness shat
tered. She is the flesh of her flesh,
and the bone of her bone. The other
is none but a stranger. But he is in
nocent; word can save him.. This
picture will be shown at the Theator-
ium Friday evening, December 81

NO ROOM FOR ARGUMENT

There is wide divergence of
opinion as to how the state wide pro-
hibition law which goes into force to-
morrow, will affect the social and
financial conditions of this state.
Men and women may honestly differ
as to the wisdom and the effects of
the law, but all good citizens must
agree that it should be given fair
trial. 1t was ratified by a decisive
majority of the voters after full
and free discussion, and in this coun-
try the will of the majority must
prevail.
Those who opposed it as a danger
Gus experiment should now manifest
q willingness to be shown" by obey
ing it's mandates. Those who favor
ed it. should prove their good faith
by helping to enforce it, instead of
resting on their oars. The fight will
not end, but begin, when the law
takes effect. If experience demon
strates that it can not be enforced, it
should and will be repealed or
amended for nothing is more de-
moralizing to good citizenship than a
law on the statute books which is
regarded and treated as a dead let
ter.
The public officers alone can not
enforce this kind of legislation, they
must have the earnest and cordial
support and assistance of the peo-
pie in their efforts Kansas has en-
forced prohibition because the voters
backed up and urged on their of
ficials in the discharge of their duty
Maine has failed to enforce prohibi-
tion because the people failed tt
elect and back up officials who would
do their duty.
Washington has gone dry and will
doubtless stay dry if the prohibi
tion law is strictly enforced. The
wet policy was given long and fail
trial in this state. The dry policy
is entitled to the same trial. There
is no room for argument on this
proposition.
