Read carefully this paragraph
from Johnson's statement given out
last night:

them from their pledged duty.
"But they are being subjected to

Decadence of the Home.

Ten per cent of the pupils of the
Minneapolis public schools are report
ed to have failed in their studies in the
first term of the year. The teachers
agree that the main reason for this
failure of six thousand pupils is lack
of parental control and consequent
neglect of study outside of school
hours. Parallel with this runs the
fact that much of the crime today is
committed by youths from fifteen to
twenty.
These two conditions point with
certainty to the growing abdication of
the parent in modern life. The eclipse
of the home is too widespread to be
explained by any one fact. One rea-
son for it, no doubt, is the increasing
rush and tension of modern life. Par
ents are so engaged in keeping the
economic and social pace that they
fail to give proper time and attention
to the child.
The gains of civilization are expen-
sive, and several of the great social
movement seem to have been won at
expense to the home. Factory pro-
duction and the new industrialism
swept the population from the coun-
try to the city, and carried many fam
lilies from the cottage to the apart
ment house. The emanipation which
has secured to woman her property
her children, her higher education and
access to many new, occupations, has
tended, temporarily at least, toward
the disintegration Of the home. The

Worlds First Toy Riot.

Podgoritza, Montenegro, claims the
signal distinction of having
staged the first and only toy riot
known to man.
During four long years of war
and invasion not toy had reached
PoGgoritza from the outside world.
The stock on hand when war broke out
lasted less than a year. When it was
gone the children watched in vain, VII
the coming of each Christmas, for new
playthings. Rag dolls became so ragg-
ed from ceaseless fondling that in the
end they were scarcely recognizable,
even to their devoted little mothers" ."
Tin soldiers, brave as they were, fin
ally went down to defeat, destruction
and oblivion. Three years of war
found the children of the brave little
nation of the Black Mountain quite
destitute of any toys at all, either new
or old.
There was no question of toys in
Podgoritza when the Junior Red Cross
reached the scene. The preparation
of the new war orphanage by the
American relief workers went on
quietly. No whisper of what was in
store for the children reached their
cans until the day assigned for the
opening of the orphanage. 1t could
scarcely have occurred to the widest
dreamers among them that in GER
tain room of the prosaic building lay
thousand American toys, cleaning
bright in their gay coating of paint
and silver gilt, and awaiting distribu-
tion. What joyous Christmas it
was to be!
On the eventful day the directress
of the orphanage took into her con-
fidence a handful of random little
stragglers encountered in the main
street of the town. Through on in
terpreter she let the tremendous Sc
cret strike upon their astonished ears.
Old in the ways of Montenegro she
knew that no town erier need make
public proclamation of the treat in
store. With the hour every child in
side ten mile range was running as
fast as his legs would let him to, the
gates of the orphanage.
Admission to the courtyard was al
lowed to only a hundred at time.
These were further divided into squads
of twenty who filed into the magic
confines of this new wonderhouse OF
delight. It required four American
officers, six Montenegrins, and local
policeman to keep order. During the
waits between admissions the great
iron gates, besieged by the mob,
groaned on their hinges under the

parent is losing by disuse many old
time functions such as protector,
teacher and promoter in family life.
Although the home is undergoing
radical transformation, few be so bold
as to prophesy it's abolition. Although
it feels the stress and strain of social
adjustment, the process may mean the
refrigeration of the home in better
form. But while this process takes
place, it is necessary to guard the
hearth-fires more vigilantly than ev-
er.
The school cannot be a substitute
for the home, and the state does not
and cannot make the best mother. The
school at best is but a supplement to
the fireside and in many cases par
ents neglect to second the efforts OF
the school in proper degree.
The home remains primary unit OF
society. 1t is the first school of the
child and the closest human tie. If the
home is not to be overborne in its
process of adjustment, the home fires
must be kept burning to light the

"organizers" to make conquest of the
rich and profitable State of Nebraska.
The pickings have steadily became
poorer in Minnesota, while in North
Dakota the rebellion of the League
farmers has shaken and almost shat
tered the throne.
But Mr.. Townley is not so easily
disposed of as would be implied by an
nounce the throne-he merely seeks
to extend the realm and himself leads
the army of conquest.
1t is true that there are grave mis-
givings among the League members
who are more devoted to the welfare
of the farmer than to exploiting him.
There are some such rebels, but they
are in minor places, they get no hear
ing in the court where Mr.. ToWnley
and his trusted courtiers rule.
From these lower circles have come
mutterings of a vast discomfort since
the people of Minnesota in primary

a disapproval of the League, its plat
form, it's methods and its candidates.
They begin to see that it is the taint
of socialism in the leadership that
spoils the whole League idea for the
people. They are beginning to de-
mand that the League be cleared of
Socialists and given over to the real
farmers to operate.
This demand, however, is little like

The story is a typical Gillette drama, picturized with full regard for the value of every scene of every incident, and every detail of the action. The result is tremendous drama of human emotion in which Donald Grip has demonstrated his won derful ability in directing lines.
