It is well-known that our so-called yellow journalim' is a real exponent, if indeed not a po- tent breeder, of hyperradical doc trines.

LIGHTS AND SHADOWS ON AN
 OHIO FARM

From Ohio comes a story which gives an insight into what modern conveniences have come to mean in the farm home.
 A certain farm house in Montgom- cry County, Ohio, was almost entire ly destroyed by fire a short time ago The house was of brick, roomy and substantially built as most old-fash- toned farm houses are. Thick stout walls and good workmanship are probably what saved the house from being destroyed, but as it was, noth- ing much but the four walls were left standing. The house is being remod- eled now with some enlargements and considerable changes as to the in- terior arrangement. The owner is seeing to it in this rebuilding that the new house will have all modern conveniences.
 Among such conveniences is, of course, electric service. The owner had electricity in the old house, the

THE OLDER BOY PROBLEM
A New Agency to Help Solve It

This community recently witnessed an exhibition of youthful energy "gone wild'. The temporary lapse of laws restraint revealed a vicious restlessness born of idleness, ire sponsibility and those companion forms of neglect by which the individ ual and society suffer. Within our own dooryard we saw the budding champions of rowdyism, plunder, Bol- shevism, anarchism. Most of the ac- tors were not men grown, but those soon to bear that designation By day and by night for a short period, their revels displayed the tragedy of adventure side-tracked towards vice, brutalism and destruetion-the anti thesis of society's hopes and aspira- tionS.
 A superficial observer might think that these tendencies were subdued along with their gross manifestations when law and order were restored. But behind the exhibitions is the big problem which confronts every agen- cy dealing with boys fifteen and oyer. It is the problem of helping each oth- CT to make his adjustments to rimself and to society-to find his niche in the worlds work and to be a loyal, enterprising American citizen. A new educational force has recently come into being to deal with this problem. It is magazine created to bridge the gap between juvenile mag azines and magazines for adults, pre- pared expressly for "the older boy, and bearing the significant title, The Open Road. It is published in Boston and backed by Boston's business men and educators.
 In the years of later youth when ideals are forming but while charac-

start to school. Mothers baby has taken the first real step in life on the path that leads to ultimate sepa- ration.
 There will be a strange quiet in the home during school hours and an anx- ious mother will find herself listening for little voice that now sings in another place.
 When Mother leaves him with the teacher she will finger at the door to gaze upon the beloved head now but one of many. Her baby, her boy, has started on the hard road of life and she will go back to the silent home with sob in her throat.

THE PARADE
Smiles

There are smiles and smiles and smiles.
 Some mean nothing and others mean so much that you cannot read them at all. Some come and go, oth- CTS are as fixed as the paint and powder that usually goes with them.
 Just now comes the thought of a smile we happened to see the other day. She was standing before a win dow filled with hats, looking at a soft brown velvet, rather large with a touch of gold on the brim. The years had brought her lots of compensation we know, but they had included no brown hats. She wanted that hat, yet she knew she would not buy it. It belonged to the woman of years ago, who had lots of brown hair, skin with the blush of a rose, and eyes that were bright, and she saw just how she would have looked in it, the look in her eye was so absent and far away.
 And then she smiled-the most tender, understanding smile, smile for the girl she had dreamed about, and then a little laugh of good hu- mor for herself.

electric plant being installed in the basement. In fire which destroyed everything inside the walls the plant was of course ruined Fortunately there was a new garage on the place a short distance from the house and the family was forced to move into this garage temporarily. The first thing that the farmer did on the morning after the fire was to call up the man who had sold him his elec- tric plant and order another one. Be- fore night the new plant was in and the family was enjoying the conven- fence of electric light despite the fact that they had no house to live in. The pumping system which supplied the old house was located outside of the house and a little distance from it and was not destroyed in the fire, so it was an easy matter to pipe the water into the garage. The pumping system was also operated by electric ity so that as soon as the plumbing was completed the family was enjoy ing running water in the garage just as they had in the house.
 This experience goes to show the extent to which the farm family be- comes attached to modern convent ences. This particular family has found that electric light and running water have made life in their present rather crowded living quarters much more comfortable and it is certain that they will make the flu lest possi- ble use of electricity in thei~ new nome when it is C eempleted.

It's Different Here

Sometimes we feel real sorry for the authors of those daily histories of married life you will find on every Woman's Page, in almost everys daily paper. Of course, these stories can not possibly be true of the majority of married people. Our women, as a general rule, are not so empty head ed, nor men so prone to go the wrong way.
 You have to be the possessor of a comfortable income, too, so that you have plenty of time for mischief, if you're man, and plenty of time to think of all of your husbands faults, If you are a woman. In these stories you can get no help or suggestions that he is going to bring MT. to have steak smothered with on- ions and little else. In the first place they wouldn't have anything so ordi- nary as steak and onions, and in the second place the wife would simply tell Jane to lay an extra, plate and would go to powder her nose. But what the lady of our acquaintance really does is to turn a mental somer- sault and greet the husband and guest with a smile.
 Here's the trouble. Even the most sensible women sometimes glance over these things, and after reading them, instead of thanking heaven that they have a baby who cries just enough at night to keep husband from staying out later than he should they are apt to feel aggrieved be- cause they have no nurse to take care of baby. Of course it doesn't last long-this feeling. The women are too busy to dissect and analyze their every emotion. And instead of wor rying because there was no goodly kiss this morning, they are generally wondering whether it is time to put heavier underwear on baby.
 Recently a lady told us: "Td like to have plenty of money and a hus- band too, but if they brought as much trouble as they bring the heroines of all these stories of married life, that you find in the papers, think 1 would respectfully decline"

SHIPPING BOARD
WITHDRAWS CONTROL

Washington, Oct. 3.-Control of
12 shipping board vessels valued at
more than $6,5OO,0OO obtained by
Victory S. Fox of New York on the
partial payment plan has been with
drawn. Chairman Benson in making
this announcement tonight said ac-
ton was taken to protect the COVER
nor's interests pending investigation
by the department Of justice of
charges of irregularities against
Fox.
Conduct of the investigation IS
wholly in the hands of the district
attorney at New York, officials Of
the department Of justice declared
and it was understood receiver had
been appointed for the Victory Fox,
Inc., the Consolidated Maritime
Lines, Inc, and other steamship
lines of which Fox is president.
No reports on the investigation
has been made to the board, Chair
man Benson said, nor has the de-
partment asked the board to CO.
operate. He said it was thought best
for the government to operate the
ships, however, until charges in
New York newspapers had been
cleared up.
