THE LATEST GOLDEN AGE

Ages are golden" only by contrast. Usually
centuries are required to bring enough changes to
supply The necessary antitkescs. but this is not
necessarily the case A single generation may SO
alter the public state of mind to make the precc;
ing one stand out as distinct as if il were long
recognized historical epoch.
The Nincteen;h Century marked The highest
point of modern culture. and~the recession has
beea so lapd as to make it seem as if placed upon
pinnacle
AS that century drew to a cloac Ike whole
world united in acc!aiarg the progress that had
been achieved Human thought lad been ise1.
allied. Humane notions lad taken possession CT
The heart Slavery had been outawed throughou;
the world. Mary countries, and several Amer
lean states, lad abolished capital punishment. Edu
ca.iona and benevolent institutions were spring
ing up on every hand. Mans universal brother
hood was more nearly recognized than i! had been
for two thousand years.
Not only was it The age of invention and me-
chanical progress but it was TIE age ct advanced
thought Great scientists lad delved into the
mysteries CT existence and announced startling dis
covcfies The age old conflict Between religion
and science was in fair way to be settled without
the traditional assassination of the scientists. Men
were learning to give new Interpretation tic
spiritual phenomena, and were finding God all the
more desirable.
The rights of the individual were strongly
championcd, and the abuses Of government were
being remedied and removed. Free thought and
free speech were everywhere recognized. Enthusl
astie seers looked confidently ahead to the vision G
free and grand and wonderful future under tn
reign of truth. lberality, justice and broado:
conception of human relations. War. born CT
ignorance, and all evid passions, was believed t.
be thing Of the past, against which common
sense, common justice and the refined instincts of
cultivated humanity would cfectualy guard the
race.
What contrast does the present present The
world is just emerging from the greatest, most
brutal, cruel useless and destructive wars in all lis
history. The Nineteenth Century notions of liber-
atty have been scattered to the winds. Despotism,
extending to every department of life, is now the
IDEAL government. Prohibition, blue-laws.' every
conceivable form of regulation and control. are
now the accepted methods of government The
learning and philosophy Of the Nineteenth Century
Is baaished from the school room.
Reformers, as ruthless. scnseless and Jealous
a, those who presided over the Inquisition. are
bounding every element Of pleasure from life and
every CLEAN of genuine intelligence from educa-
tion In twenty years we have rolled back the
scroll Of time Eve centuries and adopted the moral.

 The affair began on the lawn of the Woodlawn hospital and between l50 and 200 children. in as many diff ferent costumes and colors, trudged in 1t. Those who were too small rode in the baby buggy section, and had difficulty in being trundled along, so many people there were who wanted to rush and say pretty things to them.
 Leading the parade was the niftily uniformed band of the Boys Industrial school, and bringing up the rear was the Woodlawn Central Grammar School band.
 The Lineup
 Four motorcycle police officers in uniform and four plainclothes men marched naar the front of the pa rade, while Mrs, J. M. Hankins, presi- dent of the Womans club, led the little folks.
 As the parade trooped into First avenue awaited by>~citizens and visi- tors who lined the sidewalks, all traf- fic ceased The street cars did not even run, and everybody stopped to admire the curly haired and tousled locked little ladies and gentlemen as they swung pudgy legs and dimpled arms forward and laboriously tod dled the distance down to the Wood lawn High school campus. On this greensward a judges stand had beon erected and the bitty folks went right up to this first. They then made a huge circle and came around to the grandstand a second time. when awards for the best costumes and for the best decorated baby bug ges were made.

LARGE AUDIENCE
 GREETSSTUDENTS'
 FAIRY PRODUCTION
"Princess FragoIetta," Color fuI Play, Presented by Stu dents of South High
 lands School

Princess Fragoletta," t'lneful, colorful, and elaborately-stag fairy play in three acts, presented by the Music and Dramatic club of the South Highland school, with 25S pupils in the cast, was greeted by an audience that filled every avail able seat at the Jefferson theatre last night.
 The production, in all of It's phases dancing, singing, costumlng, and acting-was far above the ordinary Amateur offering, and much credit is due the directors for successful "Hippodroming" of the entire east.
 Elizabeth Moss was exquisite in the title role and spoke her lines with much expression. Mack Travis as Prince Ivor personified the part with manliness.
 Weird, tho wizard. who Is respon- sible for the entertainments and who makes the fuss and then settles it with his magic wand, was well played by Terence Maekin. John Cobbs, as the King, was good, and the Queen was excellently played by Marguerite Towns and Virginia Jeff ferson. each alternating In the part.
 Nathan Friedman played the part of the page and dainty Lollie Latham was the woodcutter's wife. Marie Glenn. Helen Stringfellow, and Flor ence Friedman were the ladies In waiting. Charles Coleman. as one of the woodcutter's sons, created out bursts of applause as he.--a little fell low, barely old enough to enter school-spoke his lines and sang his song with gusto. Alice Bond. Lin- coin Newfield. and Mary Haralson very excellently played the parts of the woodcutter's children. which in- cluded little Charles.
 The marionette dance by little Miss Nappi in the second act was one of the most attractive features on the program. The dance and songs of the eight black-face boys created much merriment The ballet girls, clowns, dwarfs. and shepherds all sang and danced faultlessly.

No change in the work of the Red Mountain sanatorium or the Anti-TuberculOsis association or Jefferson county is expected to be made in the near future, ac- cording to statement made yes terday by Dr. George Eaves, sec retary of the association.
