SPEAKING OF THRILLS

Loeb and Leopold who sought
thrills in fendish murder found an
other on their way to prison in an
automobile accident.
And speaking of thrills, much de-
ponds on the kind which is sought
by youth: also on the kind which
youth really experiences. A thrill of
an old-time flavor. and which mod
erns think somewhat barbaric. was
found by youth in the woodshed and
caused a circulation of blood below
the waist-line.
Has the passing Of this proved al
together salutary? The question Is
suggested by an object lesson on a
street car line outside of Augusta.
A car station was recently painted
and the windows glazed. presenting
an attractive appearance. On a re-
cent morning nearly all the several
windows by which it was lighted
were found shattered and heap Of
stones inside showed how it was
done.
Some person or persons doubtless
enjoyed a thrill from doing this. It
was q kind Of thrill which alone must
prove very injurious to the character
Of the guilty. unless it may be ac-
companied BY another not so pleas
ant. The first thrill without its
proper accompaniment results in an

NO EXCITEMENT OVER
DEFENSE DAY

Few in this country will await in
trspidation any imagined awful ef-
feet Of our Defense Day activities on
the fnilitaristic spirit of our neigh
bors. The day has come and gone
and the heart Of mankind no more
turns to the war god, Mars, than it
did on Thursday.
In so far as Defense Day may con-
tribute to the policy Of maintaining
a trained citizenry in place of a
standing army SO far it contributes
to a healthy condition. \Anything
tending to impair that training with
in reasonable limits Is in effect a
crime against society. tending to
weaken its powers Of resistance.
As there Is nowhere any record
Of this country getting into war be-
cause Of being prepared. also as there
IL plenty of evidence Of excessive
losses suffered by Americans because
they were not prepared when war
came. not even the most militant
pacifist has any cause for getting
excited over Defense Day.

Quick as a wink the nimble little

old eel slipped out, none the worse
