MORAL IMBECILITY

The law does not recognize moral imbecility, but that should cause no yastonishment, for the law does not rec ognize many forms of insanity. If a person knows the nature of his act and knows the difference between right and wrong at the time he commits it, the law holds he is not insane. Moral inn beetles know the difference between right and wrong, but they do not ex- perience when they perform a kindly, noble, generous act that feeling of we'll being or exaltation that makes it worth while, nor, on the other hand, do they feel a sense of shame and self-contempt when they commit peccadillo or crime. They are as incapable of sincere regret and genuine remorse as an in- tellectual imbecile is and possibly more so.
 The wrong-doer who. has a sense of morality cannot be happy however se- cret his prosperous sin, for he carries within himself a monitor who neither sleeps nor rests, who is incorruptible and inexorable, who points the finger of scorn, and who reiterates tirelessly the word of contempt : |
 The vast majority of people have i'm pulses to commit crime of one Kind or another. They are usually able to in- hibit them; expediency, self-advantage and self-satisfaction are the factors that condition the. restraint. Those who elect to guide us spiritually say that we refrain that we may more richly deserve salvation. It may be so. but self-study and contact with moral im- beetles and criminals does not support it. Our reward is an approving con- science which, vaulting us above the ills of life and the fear of death, bestows the perfect bliss of a peaceful mind. The most important thing in keeping us straight is our feeling. We suffer when we do wrong and we purr with delight when we do right. The one who does not suffer or purr is q moral imbecile.
 A moral imbecile is always a poten- tial criminal, and sooner or later gen erally an actual one. To avert this transformation is one of the jobs we should take on. All criminals are by no means moral imbeciles; some of them experience self-contempt on com mitting crime and remorse after, but they are unable to forgo a pleasure or incur q pain now, upon the instant, in orer that by their present self-denial they may secure benefit later.

can tell now that it was the right hand path So we will walk down it !'' The magical hobby horse walked down the right hand path and Walter and the Raggedys followed him, until ne came to queer little house.

Shorter Skirt In Fall Will Be
 
 Seen
WI HEN the problem of new
 W cloth frock presents itself, as

w HEN ao,, the ths.t problem aassn.. of ;t. new
 it is bound to within the next few weeks, the question will again arise: twill skirts be shorter or longer?" And the answer is that they will be shorter. For indeed Dame Fashion takes advantage of every op- portunity to make comfort commensu- rate with style. when the apparel is of the type which is to be worn for walk ing or general daytime use. And the fall being more or less informal sea- son, during the first half at least, one usually chooses clothes for it which can be worn with graciousness all through the day.
 In typical model of this type either kasha cloth, cashmere fabric or some such lightweight ~oolen texture would be very smart. or a crepe satin could be employed. You will like the straight slender lines which, while achieving such simplicity in effect. admit of the becoming dalntiness of frilled jabot. This may be either of soft chiffon or crisp organdie, according to one's own choice, and may be either in a color or white and may be merely picot edged or bound with contrasting color. Indeed this Feature of the frock affords innumerable variations.
 Counteracting the daintiness of the jabot are the many buttons which form a straight line up the right side front, where corded loops secure them in somewhat tailored fashion. A triple cording of the dress fabric serves as net finish for the close round neck, while a like group sug- gests a deep cut on the long tight sleeve.
 Cocoa color, or it's twin color, ashes of roses, would be modish for the in depreciation of this model, either in silk or wool, while the frilled jabot could be of ecru, chiffon or organdy.

them. A more enlightened view has done away with this manifestly absurd notion, although some cities have hesi- tated to go the whole distance at once, and have adopted compromises, sort of halfway houses on the road to complete reformation. r%
 About the only argument that was raised against the commission manager plan charter when it was submitted to the people of Muskeg6n was that cer- tain districts would not be ''repre- scented" under this plan, because nobody would be elected to the city commits sion who happened to have his resi- dence located within them.
 We have had the commission man. ager plan now for three and a half years, and these sections, conscious that they are directly represented by all
