ng the spiritual and physical forces
OF America as expressed in our so
cial system
America has her own social sys-
tenn. We Americans made it We
have lived it. We are developing it..
Opposed to the other "Isms" isSour
Amrican individualism. 1t differs
from all Others because its firm and
fixed ideal is an equality of oppor
tunity. The rightfulness OF orr
American individualism stands on
the ground that it Is the only safe
avenue to farther human progress.
Civilization stands on the brink
of the abyss. The commissions OF
European governments and society
are not too far away from us to
be dangerous We must renew our
faith in America by taking thought
to ourselves of the political. eco
nomic and spiritual principles
through which our country has
steadily grown in usefulness and
greatness. So shall we guide our
selves in the road to progress.
At time like this it is the pro-
vince and privilege of a worthy
newspaper to print those things
that make for construction instead
of destruction, to assist in making
our complex American Twentieth
century civilization sane and safe

he wants to, rs the following an
ecdote shows:
He was once the guest OF honor
at a dinner where many of the
other diners were meeting him for
the first time. They hoped, there
fore, that he would celebrate the
occasion by making a speech or
giving them something from his
repertoire. Eyes were fastened on
him, and disappointment rSigned
when the famous actor gave no In
dication of satisfying Uncommon
wish. But suddenly hope revived.
George Grossmith had cleared his
throat deliberately, had risen, and
had raped upon the table with
the handle Of his knife.
Silence followed. What would it
be? A speech or a recitation?

delight; and then she laid 1t
in a box with divers other
splendid frocks that seldom saw

about the gown, how it was

with patient craft; in flights de-

every tuck and seam and fell and
ruffles fore and aft. At last her

xTOU fathers and mothers aid
other friends of the young,
n stop and think. How ara
the children Of your home OF
your neighborhood to spend the
long summer days? Where will
they go for their amusement or
outings?
If the boys and girls near and
dear to you are treated justly
these matters will have to be
seen to as definitely as you look
after their food and clothing. In
fact play and training are far
more important than the quality
Of the clothes.
. After a wide circuit Of the
cities, large and small, I have OBJ
served several plans in use for
the vacation management Of the
children and I will specify some
Of these.
Try to arrange for a roof gar
den or an outdoor, neighborhood
play center for small children. A
motherly woman may be paid by
private subscription to take the
little ones TO park or a shady
place each afternoon. A. lumber
sun shade may be erected for
this purpose.
Try to find vacant space
where the boys of cub scou. age
may play other games during the
summer. Have some good man
make it his duty @to stop at this
place briefly once a day and hold
sort Of council with the boys,
acting as referee Of their game
and an arbiter Of their disputes.
Ten minutes a day thus spent
will gradually give a good father
ly man the necessary control over
a whole neighbOrhood Of cubs.
Think and plan likewise for the
pre-adolescent girls Of your neigh
borhood. You can help your own
ten-year-old best by helping all of
her group-to find a place for
their play. their things, their Sc
GUIDED councils. Perhaps you
will set apart the back porch Of
an apartment as their very own
for the summer period.
Past-time employment for boys
or twelve and thirteen is another
valuable Heighborhood project.
Every city district has it's quota
OF these boys who will Ego to
seed mentally and morally dur
ing vacation unless they have
something worth while to do.
Provide for them a crude work
shop, where they make stills,
swings, kites, box carts, radio
sets and the like. Also encourage
