CROWN POINT. Ind, March -
Here in this tiny county seat which
has often been referred to as the
Cretna Green Of America lives man
who has kissed between $4,000 and
40, 900 women.
And the remarkable thing about
it all is that he lives to tell it.
However there are kisses and
kisses. And the kind that Howard
II. Kemp bestows beyond the por-
tails of his own home are strictly in
line of duty.
In fact, they are official kisses.
For kissing is part of Kemp's bust
ness as the 'marryingest squire" on
earth.
1t is said OF him that he has tied
the martial knot more times than
any man alive.
Since he became a justice OF the
peace thirteen years ago Kemp has
celebrated almost 40, 900 weddings
And with every ceremony he has
given to the blushing bride her first
kiss. Yet he has been very careful
not to receive one in turn.
kemp's average month seldom
runs less than 500 weddings. And
business is often so brisk that he
has to call in assistants.
His office resembles n wedding
assembly plant. There is recep-
ton room a wedding parlor and a
place where Dan Cupids records are
kept

offers an opportunity to commit ex-
cesses more spectacularly than ever
before.
For every chance that our grand
fathers and grandInothers had to go
wrong, there are at least eighty
chances for the young person of to-
day to make mistakes.
Many tempting pictures Of life
are constantly being put before his
eyes. The moving pictures make lux
ury and easy-living attractive. and
constantly suggest to the young PEG
pie these phases of life. Many. If
not most, of our boys and girls crave
turn at trying to get these things.
Some go sensationally and unhap-
PLY to pretty complete disaster. To
the superficial observer it seems that
all youth is tending downward.
This is not so. You will rarely
find a teacher in close contact with
children who does not believe youth
is better today than ever before.
Frankness Like Sacrilege
intellectually, youth is very
honest and straight. Their frank
ness often disturbs their elders
Their Neutrality-suspicious. seems
like sacrilege.
But this frankness only grows
out of our progress from the days
when all men accepted authority
without question.
I'VE won't take political dictation
today from a car or king. We re
fuse to take social dictation from
any person claiming the right to
give it. The whole tendency of the
age is the transfer of obedience to
some authority that speaks outside
of persons The referendum and the
recall are putting responsibility on
an external authority, the ordinary
citizen. rather than on any personal
authority.
obedience is spoken of as a car
dinal virtue, and it is. There are
natural, physical, and divine laws
that cannot be transgressed without
disaster. On the other hand, obedi-
ence in these days must be intelli-
gent obedience, not blind.
Those in authority must demon
strate the wisdom and rightness OF
their commands. And this is as ii
should be.
Certain ones in our society lack
the ability to transfer authority thus,
and TO obey intelligently. These are
the ones who make mistakes. FOR
youth. coming into so complex &
machinery OF life as we have built
up, the task Of adjusting themselves
is extremely difficult. And yet most
of them succeed"

Zoning Disputes.

Considerable heat was shown in the
hearing before the Zonins Commits
sion on the proposed amendment to
allow only detached homes 10 be built
in A restricted areas. Various build
ers argued against adoption OF the
amendment and representatives Of
citizens associations for II. One point
stressed by some Of the builders was
that having bought tracts of land in
those areas with the plan OF building
semi.detached and community homes
the amendment would work a hard
ship on them. Representatives Of cit
liens associations and of people own
ing property in the areas argued that
the amendment was needed to protect
the home owners-the owners OF de.
iached houses-against depreciation of
their property by erection Of semi-de-
tached and community houses. If un.
der the coming regulations erection
Of community and semidetached
houses was allowable at the time of
the purchase of the land the builders
have a grievance.
Most persons will sympathize with
home owners who seek to protect their
neighborhood against buildings which
tend to lower the desirability and
therefore the value of property in
that neixhbaFhood. II has always
