Thoughts of Young People,

High school teachers Of Burlington, Iowa,
have learned few important things about the
result of their labors by special quiz of So
seniors The questions covered vocational
preferences, favotite authors, greatest men in
history and other general interests. The re-
plies Illuminating Charles Dickens led
among the favorite authors, but Harold Bell
Wright came second. This gives the teachers
Of literature something to think about Emer-
son and o. Henry each received ore vote The
Burlington choice of favorite books contradicts
the results arrived at in a number of New Eng
land high schools, where scientific and techni-
cal books won the honors The preferred
books in Burlington are The Three Muske-
teers" and The Tale of Two Cities" This
indicates that the young people of the middle
west have not lost their love for the romantic
and human interest stories. But they did not
prefer an American author. Their hunger is
for life The hunger OF the youth of the large
industrial centers of the eaA is. for vocational
opportunity and technical training
Abraham Lincoln won a large majority as
the greatest man in history. George Washing
ton and Theodore Roosevelt tied for second
place But Benjamin Franklin, Woodrow Will
son and Karl Marx each was given one vote
Sixty for Lincoln and one for Marx sounds
like safe Americanisrn. The law will get one
senior and the ministry one, the majority hav-
ing decided to enter business or engineering
Most OF the girls will become stenographeFs, a
few will teach school and only three will be-
come nurses. These findings probably typ
ical Of what would be discovered in the average
high school of the central west. They offer
an interesting estimate of the success and fail
ure OF the high school, the home and commun-'
ity environment. in shaping the inward choices
Of young people.

To Abolish Child Labor.

Absolute abolition of child labor in the
United States is the object of permanent or
ganization just formed in Washington. Rep
resentatives OF several organizations were
called together for this purpose by Samuel
Gompers, president OF the American Fedora
ton of Labor. The new organization is to be
known as the permanent conference for the
abolition of child labor. MIR. Gompers is chair
man.
This sounds like business. The conference
appointed committee of 10 to draft consti-
tutional amendment and the best form of law
to meet the situation. The efforts made by the
national child labor committee, the children's
welfare bureau and other agencies in past
years have laid a firm foundation in public
sentiment for a direct constitutional amend
ment abolishing child labor entirely. 1t was
necessary in the beginning to take small steps.
to fight every inch of the way. 1t is astonish-
ing to learn how difficult it has been to accom-
plish the existent legislation in favor Of giving
children a right to youth. growth and school
ing. The laws are different in different states
Some states are progressive, protecting their
children almost as fully they need. Others
lag far behind and seem to little what be-
comes of the most important crop. But at any
rate, this first gainful ground having been won,
the way ought to be clear for a constitu-
tionaI amendment making children safe in all
states alike.

Nations and individuals.

Nations haven't the sense of individuals.
When takes drubbing, gets all banged
up, loses his money and hasn't gimp enough
left in him to feed himself, he owns up that he
isn't in fighting trim. The nations of Europe
are worse off than that and still they act as
if they wanted or expected 10 fight again soon.
The commission on ornaments of the League
of Nations, after making a survey of European
conditions, reports that the nations are in no
mood to disarm.
The reason they give for going about with
chips on their shoulders is the failure of the
so-called economic conference in Genoa They
have the ancient European habit of mind that
if they can not come to an economic agree
ment by talking they will have to arrive at it
by fighting. What a spectacle for the man
in Mars TO laugh at that men who have just
emerged from war which ruined the eco
nomic standing of every country IN Europe and
left the majority of them either bankrupt or
tottering on the verge, should be considering
another war TO get back their economic stand
ing. The Mother Ooose sage who jumped
back into the bramble bush to get back his
scratched-out eyes displayed the same sort of
wisdom

er the invader is Incorporated or unincorporat-
ed. All the supreme court has done is TO bring
labor unions under the Sherman antitrust act
for the protection Of property. 1t is unfortu<
nate perhaps that general coal strike should
be in force at the time the Coronado opinion Is
handed down Senator La Toilette seeks to
create the impression that the court could have
dismissed the case with a few lines instead Of
20 pages. but 1t was inevitable that the haoil-
ity of unincorporated labor unions or other
organizations powerfully financed should be
construed with the Sherman antitrust law.
As Chief Justice Taft observes, the growth
and necessity of labor organizations have
brought affirmative legal recognition of their
existence and usefulness and provisions. for
their protection Their right to maintain
strikes when they do not violate law or the
rights Of others has been declaredf EmbezZle-
ment Of their. funds by officers has been espe-
cially denounced as crime The union label
has been legally protested in most states
against pirating and deceptive uses. 'and in
some states authority to sue to enjoin its use
has been conferred on the unions In short
the labor union has evolved into powerful
machine with many rights recognized by law
and other by custom The supreme court was
confronted by a condition, not theory. The
condition was that property destroyed as the
result of strikes ordered and financed by
powerful unions could not be recovered in suits
against individuals. Organized labor is now
on a business basis, where it belongs. 1t has
been shorn of no right, but all property has
been protected by reading into the Sherman
act logical and necessary Interpretation.

The Daily Short Story

ing had been said to "Old Captain
about not taRfrSpart in the parade
However, the time had come.
Father, I don't believe you had
better march this year. You are
not strong enough. and I'm sure ii
would be too much for you. You
can sit on the piazza and watch the
parade as it goes by. OF course,
you will agree with me and see
that l mean it for your own good. -
Susie paused. "I will point out the
different people as they near the
house, and it will be just as if you
were there yourself. There, I knew
you'd understand
1t was Just as he had thought.
He wasn't even given a chance to
demonstrate; it was all settled
without his yes" or no"
"All right, Susie. I'm going for
short walk about the farm and
he pushed back his chair and
walked slowly from the room.
Il didn't think he'd take it so
easy" Susie remarked to her hus-
band. after her father had left the
room.
He didn't have much to say
about it, 1 must say" was the an
swer
Meanwhile, "Old Captain" made
straight for the wood shed and
with hands trembling with excite
ment donned his uniform, then
made his way "cross lots" to the
meeting place on the common.
The morning crept On and the
time came for the parade to pass
the house.
Where can father be-" asked
Susie of her husband. HE would
feel pretty bad to miss the parade.
I've looked everywhere around the
house and have called for him sew
eral times"
Just then the suond of music
could be heard.
Tramp, tramp, tramp,
The boys are marching
Susie, Susie, come quick. See
who is in. the parade,"
And there was "Old Captain
with head IN and eyes sparkling,
marching with the rest.
