THE REDWOOD GAZETTE. REDWOOD FALLS. MINNESOTA

/ Of all the many fine things Mrs.
Quamme said in her talk to the Par
ents and Teachers of Redwood Falls
she said nothing more vital than that
every town needs accredited and sup
ervised rooming places for it's out-of-
town students. She cited a rather
extravagant case in which young
high school girls had entertained their
boy friends in their rooms until an
extremely late hour; and the man of
the house in which they were rooming
had felt no responsibility nor any
thing else except anger that his prec-
ious slumber had been destroyed.
That seems extreme, and we at first
thought are prone to deny anything
similar ever happening in our own
town. 1t probably never hast pos
sibly never will-but at the same
time it very possibly may. At any
rate these young people, both boys
and girls, who come to us from other
communities are entitled to a pro-
tected and protecting place in which
they shall live during their absence
from their own homes. They should
not, for their own welfare and the
welfare of the community, be per-
mitted to stay in any home where
they will have no supervision, where
their health and their morals are not
somebody's responsibility, at least to
a reasonable degree. This housing
problem presents a problem on which
any Parent-Teachers Association may
well exert its strength and it's in
genuity.

AMERICAN GIRLS AND IDEALS
T MAY seem a little late to gro

L MAY seem little late to grow
enthusiastic over the new wo-
i man, since she has come to be
taken as matter of course, Some
occasions, however, make reminders
appropriate. One such occasion
Judge Florence E. Allen, of Ohio,
found when she spoke before the
young women, assembled during the
recent Girls Week Federation, in
Chicago. AS wonderful, she said in
substance, as was the vision before
Balboa, are the possibilities for un-
foldment before the woman IN this
age. The responsibilities as well as the
joys of the new freedom are to be
deeply considered. And as, in the
first instance, devotion and toll and
sacrifice were needed to crystalline
the vision into the fact, in new aven-
ues of communication end trade, so
will fidelity and courage be requir-
ed of woman, in order to traverse
all the new paths that lie before her.
The American girl who takes her
liberty as she takes her breath may
do so largely because Of the faithful
work of the pioneers who first estab-
lished a government which would
preserve the right to worship God
according to conscience, and who, lat
er, opened the door to woman for a
larger part in the worlds work. Ev-
cry American girl must eventually
belong to the United States Club, as
Judge Allen was pleased to call the
United States Government. Each
member of this great CLUB" must full
fill the obvious obligations belonging
to loyal membership. Devotion to the
ideals of the founders CT their gov.
eminent alone can preserve the liber-
ty into which these yonng members
of society are born as their native
right.
American girls who are now learn.
ing helpful lessons of service and CO.
operation in their various clubs, anc
who will later have a part, as THEN
maturer sisters now measurably have
in helping to make and to enforce
laws, should know that liberty is
something each one must realize anc
preserve for himself, through obeli.
ence to law. Each generation must
make its own, through such obedience
the liberty which its predecessor:
appreciably realized.
The young Miriams and Esthers OF
this age who learn to sing and sac
rifice for their people, will best full
fill their mission by first of all hold
ing for themselves high ideals of pure
thinking and pure living; for only by
perfecting to the utmost the various
functions of their own lives can they
have the widest helpful influence. AS
the young woman Of today cherishes
her many opportunities for service in
the highest sense, it should be pos
sible to speak Of her as of one "that

efficient public officerEeven the men
who were most opposed to seeing a
woman go into an elective office of
this nature are forced, through ordin-
airy honesty, to admit that. She
should have the nomination without
even having to ask for it-and all
loyal members Of her party will do
their utmost to see that she does get
it.
We can't get very much excited
over all this wet-and-diy- straw-vote
stuff, nor the fact that some benight-
ed woman is going to plead the wet
cause in Congress, and all the rest
of this babble and chatter that the
-prohibitionists are putting up.
We really couldn't expect those pe ople
to let their side of the question die
without putting up at least the bluff
of a fight for it. AS whole the
country is pretty we'll convinced thai,
it cannot afford to take a backward
step and letting down the bars in any
way whatsoever would be just that.
That is the real public opinion that
will keep the Eighteenth Amendment
where it is now and end in it's event
ual and effective enforcement. The
rest of this chatter is mostly blah.

A committee of business men

that hill, you'd make special trip

thing difficult to them, but we just
wonder if they realize that this is

course, where the candidates are all

problem. It is privilege to have

RESPECT FOR LAW

Urine in the United States cost
~ sixteen billion dollars last year,
according to recent news item. This
item, filling only a small space was
seen by small per cent of the people
of the country. And yet this one item
should have meant more to the aver
age citizen than any story the papers
had carried for month.
Sixteen billion dollars is some bill!
1t means between $3.50 and $3.50 out
of the pocket of every man, woman
and child in the nation. That is the
price we pay for our disrespect for
law. That is the price we pay for silly
sentimentality toward criminals; for
allowing politicians to juggle our
peace officers; for neglecting to teach
our children to respect themselves,
their parents, their country and it's
laws.
Every election we have men run
ming for office on the ancient cry 81
will reduce taxes" We have not had
a man running for office on the plat
form that he would reduce taxes by
reducing our criminal bill. Neither
have we had any other form Of a
campaign against this gouging our
pocketbook. We must like it!
How much do you suppose your
thinking it clever to dodge prohibi-
ton has cost you? Not just for the
poison bought-which if it did not
ruin your sight, you were lucky
but the bill for the additional depart
ment for federal enforcement, board
for prisoners, before and after con-
viction, additional judges, additional
local police and other items too num-
erous to mention.
A cry of horror has gone up from
the American people at the mention
of cancelling the European war debt,
but a little sacrificing and omission
of this criminal orgy we could pay
this debt. Of course we then could go
back to selling poison liquor, murder,
highway robbery and our other little
pastimes of which we are so fond,
that we are willing to spend fifty
cents day on, every one of US, every
day in the year.
