OUR UNION STATION

We may not be able to afford a new
union station, but ut least few
benches can he placed in the park so
that folks that have 10 wait for train
these warm summer days do not have
to be crowded in with the unwashed
in the little waiting room. There Is no
use complaining until the city gets
ready to do something. Plans for new
station have been drawn for years, but
the railroads will not build until they
have 10.
Many have wished that the old sta
ton would burn down, but there is no
such luck. IL was constructed Of red
wood in the early eighties and is almost
as firepoof as steel. Perhaps the rail
roads would like to see the old shack
burn, but threatened blaze always
goes "fluey." IL is hard TO keep the
interior clean because Of its unsanitary
arrangements Of half century ago.
Meanwhile, why not place a few
benches in the station park. a beautiful,
shady place, where, not travellers only,
but citizens might enjoy the oasis.

To Eradicate the Dance Evil, Obey the
Laws If Your Church

just WHY the ministry should PEI
out the schOl teacher as the target II
the dance controversy is beyond com
prehcnsion. Why don't they criticize
the nirents Of the children Of theil
own denomination? The teacher has
the children six hours a day and Il
supposed to teach them systematic
program, laid down by the state boart
of education for the teacher to follow
When the days work Is finished Al
the school, the teacher has no more
control over the pupil than the Head
light would have over one Of its EN-
ployes after the completion of the
days work. The parents are the ones
who have the control over their Off
spring. and If they are incapable Of eX
ercising the proper influence over theii
children and directing them in thu
course of amusements they should in
dulgc in. God pity the child. The
churches have rituals and bylaws gov
ernmg the action of their members
and il they find among their members
there are those who are violating
church laws by dancing or indulging
in card games, or any other alleged
sinful deyiccs-.let them take action
Immediately and clean up the house
OF God, the same as Christ did when
lie would not have the temple of God
dcsecrated by the 'prOfiteers" and
money changers Remove the beam from
thine own eye before removing the
mote from thy brothers eye.
lhe Headlight does not attempt to

uf refined amusement, but we do be
lieve that the dance under proper man
agement, with temperate indulgence, Is
hot ~ harmful as many other forms
of amusement OF which there Is little
criticism made. When there Is a lull
In church activity, IL has been the Gus
tom for Years and years for that body
To condemn almost all forms Of public
amusement, and especially the dance.
We have looked IN on several dances
In the mast three years, and must say
that in gret number OF them we
T. md members Of almost all the local

At one that we looked In upon a deacon

told that members Of the churches have
acted as chaperOnes.
Now then. let's cut this school

"BETTER LATE THAN NEVER"

Well look who's here. Our es-
teemed contemporary, the Headlight
has at last gotten into the game with
an editorial anent the controversy over
he proposal To prohibit public school
teachers from dancing. There Is notn-
ing like waiting 10 PICK the popular side
and then climbing on the band wagon.
We certainly respect the discretion eN-
hihiied. hut we do not relish the yelled
nttnck ON the churches of Deming and
may be hardened for taking up the
cudgpl again IN defense of these insti-
tutions. IL they need and defense.
The Headlight SAYS: ITO cure the
dance evil. obey the laws of your
church" The ministers said that the
school teachers were responsible for
IN. bad influence of the dances on the
school children; BOW comes the Head
light and says that the church mem
bers are responsible. Both exhibit the
tciriency 10 shift the blame to someone
else. The Headlight thereby exhibits
a surprising luminosity To church mem
ben. Why pick On the church mem
hcrS? All churches do not prohibit
dancing and the tendency is toward re-
moving the han. The Headlights line
of reasoning is no more thoughtful toll
Grant or relevant than that Of the min
listers. The latter. we feel sure, are
not 10 be- altogether blamed they are
10 ~ int out evil where they find IT,
aud mistakes of method and judgment
are inevitable. The Graphic's sympa-
thy is with them even In their errors
for they do stand courngeously for
morality and right relations in sll the
activities Of life.
Frankls. the Graphic doesn't follow
the line OF reasoning of our esteemed
contemporary and fails 10 grasp the
relevancy Of many uf the assertions.
The main idea seems To Ice To slur the
churches or the church members and
10 dictate to them what shall be or
shall not be the attitude toward dane
ing card playing and other amuse-
ments. the latter being entirely irrele-
want to the question involved
The Graphic proposes that the instl-
mtions and citizens of DemIng quit
irving to dictate to each other and, in
stead 81 hammering one another, get to-
gether ana boost every good thing. In
that way we will all find enough to do
aud not be- tempted to NEEDLE in the
other fellows affairs.
