No Suicide Wave

1t appears that there is student suicide
wave" Up to this time many persons thought
that there was. Editors throughout the country
have been showing great concern over the sua
ton noted ivines have instituted surveys into the
conditions and college professors have attempted
to explain why and wherefore Now the Metro
potan Insurance company, with its flair for sta
tstics, proves without doubt. and to great sat
isfaction and thanksgiving, that there is nothing
unusual in the number of student suicides this year
In fact, says the company, basing its conclusions
upon record Of Is years 30 per cent Of the
population. the number of suicides OF persons OF
student age, that is between the ages Of 10 and
90 this year, as during 1926, is under the usual
average.
The general alarm felt throughout the country
over the student suicide wave is ample demon
straton of the power of the press to bring home
to the American people any particular fact and it
should serve as a warning to the newspapers CT
the country to be just little more sure of the
facts before declaring that 26 suicides among thou
sands is wave
1t is doubtful if ncwspapcrmcn in general, that
lis, those who work intimately with the news itself
realize, the tremendous power of the printed word
not only in molding public opinion, but to create
sometimes an unvholesomc result in the minds OF
many people through the power Of suggestion
springing from the printed word.
Evidence does not appear that student suicides
have been accelerated by the great publicity being
given them but that is matter of good fortune
The whole situation should be to make The
n,wwspaperman more careful of the impression hi.
work may be responsible for.

he last viewed the city 81 years ago,
A. L. Goodkind of Chicago is here
today to renew former acquaintance
ships. Most of the men who were
his closest friends when he lived here
have answered the final summons, he
says, although he found few today

of Wise & Goodkind, wholesalers of
liquor and cigars. Upon leaving here
81 years ago he went to Helena,
Mont, and later to Chicago, where
he has been engaged in business for
many years. He is now retired, and
is en- route to Montana to look after
some of his property holdings.
