THE CHILD THAT RUNS AROUND
NIGHTS.
Duluth Herald.)

(Duluth Hcrald)
There was piece in the paper the other evening
saying that the humane society wants a bill forbid
ding children under fourteen to attend the movies
unless accompanied by their elders.
The idea is that children OF that age ought not
to be out nights alone, and that some Of them make
the movies the excuse for being out-sometimes
when they are not at the movies at all.
There is question whatever that young chill
drcn ought to be home nights-that if they do go
out their elders ought to be with them, at least
absolutely where they and what they are
doing.
But would barring them from the movies accom-
pish this. 1t might unhappily drive them to worse
places
Like all efforts of this sort this one ignores the
real source Of bame-and that is the home and the
parents.
Everybody who has to do with juvenile den-
qucncy knows that children 30 wrong usually be-
| nights without knowing where they and what
| they arc doing and permit them to stray into
| temptation which is always in wait for unguarded
| and undrectcd childhood
| When child goes wrong because it has been al
| lowed to stray loose at night the child is pun
| ished. Yet in point Of fact the blame lies with
the parents, and it is they who should be punished
| If there any way to do 1t.
| a law forbidding unaccompanicd children tC
attend the movies would keep them out Of the
movies, no doubt. Would it keep them at home:
| Would it remedy the home conditions that make
it possible for them to be out at night unmatched
| Unfortunately 1t would not.
| Children Of the right kind Of parents need nc
such law this, for parents of the right kind dc
not let their children wander about at night ever
when they supposed TO be at the movies. TIL.
proposed law would keep them out of the movies
but it wouldn't keep them at home.
This isn't to say that such a law shouldn't b,
passed. Maybe it should. But 1t shouldn't b.
passed with any idea that passing 1t solves th
, problem. 1t wouldn't solve the problem l
wouldn't do any more than to keep the children on

WHO is WELL READ"
-Reyiew.)

(SpOkeSman- Revlew.)
Persons who like to think that they are entitled
to be classified well read" ought to check up
on themselves every once in while, because the
requirements constantly increasing and the
well-read man of few years ago Is the back num-
Der Of today. Once there time when a fair
degree of intimacy with Shakespeare and the
Bible was the only requirement. but that Is mot the
case any more.
For checking-up purposes admirable docu-
ment is the examination for prospective library
workers given in this city last week. Anybody
who can answer correctly all the question in that
examination would be indsputably well read A
few errors might be allowed, but not many. for it
is a fair examination and comprehensive one.
One is supposed to know at least name of the
author work. from the great literaturcs from
the Hindu to modern times One name from each
period ought to stick to the least retentve men,
ory. One ought also to be able to name the au-
thors Of selected list of familiar works, even
though the list takes in representatives from "Gu-
livers Travels to "Man and Superman."
To drive home the idea that the well-read mind
is not necessarily the bookworm type the literary
examination reaches into the field of general in
formation and takes in vcrs libre feminism watch
full waiting. the city manager plan. Somewhere In
France" direct prima ries, Colona Dublan, single
tax, aviation, Vcrdun, submarine warfare general
painting and Stcptoe butte.
How many of the well read" could pass the ex-
animation? The percentage of failures probably
would be surprising even to the participants
