s. s. Mcclure Charms Audience
 At High School

There was a large and apprecia- tive audience at the second of the High School Alumni association se- ries of lectures given last evening al the High school auditorium Ine speaker was Samuel S. Mcclure, the famous publicist, author ana traVe!- Ter. His subject was "Worlo Cohoi- tions Today"
 In dealing with the issues of the world-war, MT. Mcclure mentioned that two of his sons and four nephews had served at the front and he add ed impressive1y: Having seen what I have seen, say to you that I would rather they had never come back than that they had not gone
 In his talk the whole world seemed to be familiar ground to MT. Mcclure, and in reality it is. He has visited all the important foreign countries not once or twice, but many times. and not merely a tourist, but as one who was there on business. and his mission was to study the coun- tries and their peoples. With the experience of quarter of century in such work, MT. Mcclure recently made intensive studies in seventeen Japan, Turkey, Hungary, Germany, England, France and Mexico. From this material he gave, last night his | stirring address on World Cond!- 1 tions Today. In concise and graphic | language he presented a review of | the existing situation in all parts of the globe and dealt especially with | the outlook for this country and the English speaking races in general. | MT. Mcclure emphasized the fac: | tlat at period of modern history | have work conditions assumed such | critical phases as at the present time e
 Never before has our civilization 1 faced such terrific perils. So many upheavals have taken place in vari- l ous countries, and so rapid have
 been the transformations that arc it is impossible for the most diligen
 reader of newspapers and magazine: e: to grasp more than a fraction of wha is really happening. As MT. Me Cure pointed out, "the whole world
 has undergone such far-rea chinf
 changes that former conditions ar'
 never likely to be restored
 The prominent lecturer gave th
 fascinating account of the expansion
 of Europe in the last four centuries
 which has resulted in European
 races controlling North and Soul America and Australia, 97 per cent
 of Africa and half of Asia.
 Mir. Mcclure also made the start
 ination of the globe is now chal lenged as the result of the growth
 power and threatened expansion o the Asiatic races, which are spread ing to North and South America an Australia. "If the Asiatics and othe
 colored races,'' he argued, "shou1 7 eventually combine with the Rus l sians, the enormous preponderanc s of men and materials at their com g mand would enable them to swee over the earth and overthrow o'

THE BIRTHRIGHT
 OF CHILDHOOD

The birthright of every child is a bright, happy childhood, that is, as far as it is possible for parents to give it. Those who argue that a happy, careless childhood goes to the making are quite wrong.
 Some parents inform their children of all their financial difficulties and worries, not emitting a single sad de- tail when things go wrong roll off the backs of boys like water off ducks backs, fortunately. However, with most girls it is different. Their hearts are made sad by the worries and cares of their parents.
 How did Esther enjoy the party ?" This question was asked a mother not long since. The party in, question was one that had been looked forward to by the young people for several weeks as entertainments of that character were few and far between in that community.
 Mot very much" answered her mother, '.just a little while before she left we had a message saying her Aunt Mamie was dangerously i'll, and she is Esther's favorite. auntie."
 The memory of that message was with Esther through the entire even ing, and, of course, kept her from enjoying to the fullest this pleasure. She might just as we'll have been told of this message a day or two later Then there would have been no sad memories connected with the party, Of course it would not be right to bring children up without ever hav- ing a care, or without acquain tance with disappointments. But parents should remember that most of us have plenty of time to be old, and that youth is the time for joyousness. To have a youth with few sad mem orieS ito look back on is one pleasure that lasts through life Boys and girls whose shoulders are made to bear burdens only fit for older ones
 lose their happy illusions about life
 But the care-free child will have a higher courage, happier anticipation of the future, and more of what you
 might term animal" spirits.
 Even if the children do not fully | realize the fact that their paren ts are making sacrifices to give them 6 happy youth, when they have childrer l of their own they will wonder how
 mother and father ever managed | and then they will appreciate then
 without any unpleasant reminders or | the part of the parents.
 So, 'Gather ye rosebudS while ye may, and do for the love of youth, le 1 others gather theirs, tool"
