GOV. CoOLIDGE'S IDEA.
Why We Seem toNeed Govern
ment.

Governor Coolidge of Massachusetts
has an idea of government very pleas
ant to hold, He says it ought to APP
peal to the reason, satisfy the heart
assist the good, deliver the weak and
resist the strong.
Government ought to da all of those
things, but it doesn't. But perhaps
government is necessary for the very
reason that the world is not quite
ready to have all those things done to
and for it. If reason could be appealed
to always we wouldn't need any gov
ernment 1t is because we have not
developed to the state in which we can
adjust all differences by the exercise OF
reason that we have to have other
agences-courts, police, armies and ma
vies. Government, in short. We use
these agencies when reason fails to
perform, which is most always. If
we were perfect enough to get along
without government We could satisfy
our hearts without outside direction.
the good wouldn't need to be assured
because nobody would be picking on
them, and the strong would themselves
do any delivering of the weak that
seemed TO be necessary although, OF
course, there wouldn't be any weak to
deliver
But we haven't reached that state
not even in Massachusetts, we believe,
We still require government a good
deal of it. And on the wholeand
again even in Mas sachusetts--w seem
to require government that doesn't fool
around too long trying to find our rea-
son or our heart, or to distinguish be-
tween the good, the weak and the
strong. Government in these imperfect
days has TO lay down a few straight
way lines of conduct, pretty strict and
plain, and leave the lump Of lis to
scramble up to them. The hindmosc
have to be prodded The government
that would stop to appeal to their rea
son or try TO satisfy their hearts
would itself need assistance and deliv-
eranee.
We think Governor Coolidge has the
right idea and sometime when things
are quiet in Massachusetts we'd like TO
see him try it out. But, generally
speaking, government. thus far in its
experiment, has been too busy keeping
the good and the weak from democrat
izing il past all usefulness. We don't
want to say anything unkind. but it
does seem to us Governor Coolidge
ought TO get job with the league of
nations Kansas City Star

SCOUTING CURES LAwBREAkINe

''The constant reports Of young men
from sixteen to eighteen breaking the
laws in various parts of the country
seem to tell the story and show that
there must be an intensive campaign
carried on to teach our young folks
loyalty. patriotism and respect for the
laws Of their country" says Whitman
p. Smith, who has recently taken up
the work in Portland, Me-, Of boy
scout executive.
From my experience In the work
for the last four years, It seems to
me that the community never had
greater need for the scout program
for boys than II has today.
II find In communities where no par
ticular attempt has been made to give
publicity to the work that people are
awake to the possibilities of the scout
program and believe that the future Of
the movement is greater than It has
been since Its inception"
