SIDEWALK SKATING
GOOD FOR MORALS

Special to The Washington Herald
Montclair, N. J., Sept. 1.-THE con-
troversy in this town over the use OF
the sidewalks, which was started when
Mrs. John Haynes Lord protested to the
authorities because children were al
lowed to use them for roller skating, bids
fair to become a community issue.
Mrs. Lord, who was injured by being
run down by a bicycllst on a sidewalk
a few years ago, has many supporters
Her attitude, however, is resented by
others. chief among whom is Arthur P.
Heyer.
Mr. Heyer came out today with an
other broadside.
He contends that children are less like
ly to acquire vicious habits and thoughts
by playing with many of their kind in
public places than alone or with a single
companion in the seclusion of the nursery
or private playground.
Vice and evil OF all kinds thrive best
behind curtained windows and closed
