MAY DAY, MOTHERS DAY
MEMORIAL DAY

MO OTHER month has been SO
AN much written about as "the merry
month of May" It might be called
the magic month, for legend and ira
dition connect many a tale OF ro-
nance with this last month of spring
Earth and sky seem kindliest tnen'
sunlight never brighter, and all lie
pushing upward.
Strange beliefs have from olden
times belonged to the first day OF
May. Then the maid may find her
lovers face in the quietness of hid
den pools, and the dew Of May Day
holds fairy beauty. Around the May
Pole laughing children dance, hardly
knowing that their festival began as
a religious rite, as dance OF thank
fulness for life renewed with spring
time.
Then the end of May and the ma
tion's tribute to its soldier dead. In
the great national cemeteries Of the
land where sleep the dead of three
wars the rows of graves become a
bright stretch Of flowers, fresh cut.
In remoter places men and women
and children pause to remember those
who gave life in defense Of coun-
try that shelters them still. In many
a quiet graveyard turnout the land,
away from cities and parades the
pomp and ceremony, wherever may
be found the grave of one who wore
the blue or the gray or the khaki,
flowers rest and prayers ascend.
Between Mays merry entrance and
it's departure in the tribute and re-
membrance of Memorial Day comes
Mothers Day. The day is worthily
chosen, and worthy thrice-over they
whose day it is-our Mothers.

RESPECT FOR LAW

URINE publicity is distasteful to
- the modern editor. He has no de-
sire to fill his columns with unending
accounts of lawlessness. Yet, so long
as crime persists and daily grows
more impudently active, it is the
duty Of the newspaper, as the great
agency of publicity, to give the facts
to the people.
Had it not been for publicity given
the countrywide crime wave, Wash
ington's legislature might not have
been aroused to the need for aggressive
measures to simplify court processes
and to tighten procedure SO as %
eliminate loopholes in the law, thru
which the adroit offender too fire.
quently slips.
Conditions here are not comparable
with those in other sections. There
is no city on the coast with murder
record like Chicago. There are no
gangs" here, such as long have OPP
Grated and still are operating in New
York. In taking the leadership to a
nationwide movement to improve con-
ditions, Washington merely is dis
playing high quality of civic pro-
gressiveness. It's success in dealing
with the situation will be watched
with lively interest by all othel
American commonwealth.
That this is no academic issue j.

criminality and the steadily increas
ing costs of penal and crime detectio,

so because of the expense, which, i

ty and municipal taxation.
No panacea will meet the needs o
the situation. No new remedies nee

VALUE OF FRIENDS

HAVE you a friend whose loyalty
you would not question, who al

not expect more Of you than you
know your capacity to be, who is in
terested when you are pleased. or
sympathetic when you are sad, who
shows you that he values your good
will more than he does the dollar in
your pocket. Think twice before you
answer, and if you have, stay by him,
stick to him, and if ever need be give
him the shirt off your back, even if
it's the last one in your own ward
robe. A good friend and true is
