High school age is disease. All high
school boys and some girls are complete
idiots, and all should be in prison or
locked up somewhere until they get past
high school age, whether it be IS or
80 years DID," said DR.. Alice Mott of
Faribault at the Seventh district fede-
rated clubs convention today.
High school boys and girls are un
connected, unconditional, irresponsible
beings" said DR.. Mott. ''They do not
know enough to come in when they are
cold, wear rubbers when it rains, eat
when they are hungry or go to bed at
the proper time. They stand up in
boats and get drowned; try all sorts of
experiments that are bad for them, and
end by going off, on a jaunt of matri-
mony only to meet disappointment.
Nobody is orderly until 80 years old.
The brain cells controlling untidiness
do not develop before that age.
I'VE cannot harden young folks to
temptation. If they do not face it it is
because they do not see the temptation.
Let us keep temptation from them.
''Some suffer from high school age un-
til they are 20, others until they are 80"
Yes, Alice, what a pity it is. If we
had all been born infinitely perfect, what
delightfully."- tempered antiseptic
prophylactic existence in parlors with a
regulated temperature this would be!
But why stop at 80? Some Of us never
will outgrow the irresponsible, idiotic''

Thanking Peace

Jos. Howard Keller OF New York is
credited with the suggestion that we
call our War Department the Peace
Department, and the secretary thereof
the Secretary of Peace. It has high
value as piece of suggestive thera-
peutics in craftsmanship. Let us think
Peace and we shall tend towards peace.
By thinking War, we prepare for war.
1t is a fact not known, or at least not
generally appreciated, that our War
Department has done it's greatest works
of late for peace. The Medical Depart
ment of the Army is it's strongest and
most useful branch. Its work against
disease has been surprisingly splendid.
The cleaning up Of Havana and the an
nihilation Of malaria in Panama, are
outstanding achievements known of
most people, but people generally doanot
know, for example, that General Leonard
Woods chief title toafame, is in This
,capacityaas, a1lnedical, man. Goetha]s
and Gorgas are army men who have led
in great army work for peace, for the
saving, not, the taking Of life. All We
need do is pursue this line that the army
has taken and extend and expand it's
peace-promotive activities.
The army as peace organization
necessarily implies the navy in like
functioning; but not as threat to
thrash those who will not be peaceful.
The present administration, in so far as
it could, has pursued the Keller idea.
but naturally the demonstrations at
Vera Cruz and on the border of Mexico
have had some of the character of a
menace. Mr.. Keller would play up
the peace thought in every activity of
both army and navy. Presumably he
would favor an organization of citizens
on the Boy Scout order for the sake of
the discipline and the dissemination OF
the idea and ideal of service. The army
might do more work like the building OF
the Canal river improvement, irri-
cation of the arid regions, taking charge
in such situations as arose after the
Dayton flood. He would probably very
considerably modify the operations of the
army in such cases as its call to the strike
region in Colorado. Our whole military
establishment, including the militia OF
the States, should be made nation
wide sodality of service for peace and
good will. OF course, all this would not
suit ex-President Roosevelt, or Congress
man Gardner or Richmond Pearson
Hobson, but the majority OF citizens oil
. the United States will find it accordan!
with what they deem to be the spirit Of
civilization. Mr.. James Howard Keller

The Public Lsbrary.

Some unfortunate New Ulm citizen,
with wierd sense of humor, when the
St. Paul library burned down, made
the St. Paul library board an offer of
the use Of New Ulm's public library.
Which might be taken as joke if the
whole matter were not so tragic. It
feels like touch of the Balm OF Gilead
to the wearied soul or touch of Blue
Jay to wearied feet to hear the instant
and spontaneous applause which greets
every mention OF a public library in
New Ulm at Commercial Club ban
quets and like occasions; yet, some
times, hayward thought and question
comes to US, why does not the Com
mercial Club qualify for the laurel as
we'll as the martyrs crown by taking
up and pushing project of this kind?
We do not need a Carnegie gift; we
have enough money in New Ulm for
a project of this kind. New Ulm is
hardly a poverty-stricken town; in
fact it is one of the richest towns in
the state.
This subject, like the poor, is always
with us; and although trite it will bear
repetition We must have a library
here, and let it be understood that
sooner or later we will. Meanwhile
the younger generation, which would
draw the most benefit from it, grows
up without it. And the golden OPP
portunity is gone. Of course the stars
will hardly change from their eternal
courses because that is so, nor will the
people who should work for the library,
yet it is pity that the New Ulm boys
and girls are growing up without a
knowledge Of the things in literature
which are so much worth while. The
case would scarcely be so serious did
we have a good school library, but
that is also in a sad state.
1t is more than thankless task to be
a refo1mer; the man who insinuates
that New Ulm is not quite perfect in
every detail is very likely to become
a social outcast. We must boost, at
any cost, but let us not think that a
complacent dissatisfaction and blind
ness to actual conditions is the right
method of boosting. Let us advertise
our city, but let us first make it worthy
of that advertisement. In this matter
as in everything else, there is a great
deal Of semi-conscious selfshness mixed
up. The people who can best appre-
ciate library in most cases have
libraries Of their own, and as their own
need is not very pressing they are
careless about their duties toward the
community. AS a constructive sugges-
ton which might be we'll adopted, the
Review would like to urge the for
nation if some kind of Public Library
Club or Union, which would have for
its avowed purpose active campaigning
for public library, not in the distant
future but for our own age and genera
ton. This certainly would be more
effective than sporadic outbursts of
the library spirit in addresses, where
usually much is said and little done.

HERE'S WHY 1T HAS RAINED
so MUCH.

We have new grievance against the
nations of Europe that are in the midst
of leaden halls and cannonadings. Also
another reason why we don't want to
60 to war.
We have decided and the decision is
based on the weather lore of life spent
in the temperate zone that these May
deluges, this period Of rain stick, the
slicker and the crouch in these United
States is due to the hurly-burly abroad,
the thunder Of the big guns bringing
down the water on the just and the unjust
throughout the world.
It is essential that some one be blamed
for the apparent unseasonableness of the
weather, though Forecaster J. N. Ryker
Of the local office by his figures shows
that the rainfall and the other pheno-
mena are not so much out of the ordinary
as it is supposed.
But think Of it! Every time a new
nation joins the conflict there is Just
that much more rain. Rumania's en-
trance into the war game would boost the
wet season into Midsummer, each citizen
clad in hip boots. If China got involved,
we would be using rowboats on the ST..
Paul streets until the canals froze up. s
The subject is unpleasant. Many Of
us are signing for dry nook, with dry
tobacco, and book about Sahara, but
also with slicker for pillow, and a
