Older Folks to Blame

XKTHO supposes that the young

not dreaming of such homes, are
not hoping for a peaceful, happy
wedlock, and are not doing their
best to bring it about?
Who supposes that they are start

turmoil.

Young people are just as anxious
to succeed as they ever were, just
as anxious for a home they can
call their own, even If it is only a
two-room fiat, and just as ready
to play the game through, If given
half a chance.
We older folks are largely to
blame for their mistakes and short
comings.
Some Of us do not set as good an
example as we might, and most of
us are guilty of a cynical, stand-off
attitude. We either take young
people as q joke, or far too serious

their age, or humoring them in a
soft-headed way so we may have

Much has been said about what
young people need, but, in this
writer's opinion, what they need
most is honest to God companion

TN a recent consideration Of the
L various types of headache be-
fore the New York Academy of
Medicine, DR.. Frederick Tilney
classified various varieties which
indicate how necessary it is that the
cause of the headache be sought in
any attempt to overcome the condi-
ton when it occurs again and again.
Sixteen varieties of headache were
classified; including, first, brain
tumor, and second, brain abscess.
In both instances, the only pos
sible relief is by surgery, which re-
moves the tun1or, in case that is pos
Sible, and permits the infected ma
terial to drain away from the alb
SceSs.
The third cause of headache is
related to infection of the brain by
the organism that causes the major
venereal disorder.
If this condition is diagnosed by
positive WasSermann test and by
other methods that are used in such
diagnoses, proper treatment will al
leviate the headache.

Success

DYRD, however, was convinced by
LD his own experiences with the
Macmillan expedition that it would
be possible to fly to the pole in an
airplane.
While Arnundsen and his compan-
ions were at Spitzbergen waiting to
take off in the Norge, Byrd arrived
there.
On May 9, 1926, Byrd took off in
Fokker monoplane equipped with
three Wright motors. He was &C
companied by Floyd Bennett.
The two left Spitzbergen at 1880
a. m. It was $50 miles to the pole.
At 4:2O p. m. they were back at
Spitzbergen. They had flown to the
pole, circled around the locality sew
eral times, covering 1900 miles in
fifteen and one-half hours.
Here was a contrast of the old
and the new. Perry had spent eight
cen days fighting his way over the
ice to the north pole. Byrd had
flown there and back in a fewer
number of hours.
On May II, the Norge took off on
its famous journey. The dirigible
crossed the north pole and con-
tinued on to Teller, Alaska. 1t made
the Journey, a distance Of 1891
miles, in seventy-two hours.
No land was seen during the
journey, though part of the time
there were heavy mists and, conse-
quently, poor visibility.
On April IS. 1928, Captain George
H. wilkins made an airplane flight
in the Arctic. He made no attempt
to reach the north pole, flying in
stead from Point Barrow, Alaska,
over the pole Of inaccessibility" to
Spitzbergen. He covered 2,2O0 miles
in twenty and one-half hours.
General Mobile reached the north
pole in his dirigible, the Italia, in
May, 1928. The ship was wrecked
however, during the return journey.
Mobile and most of the crew SubSe-
quentIy were rescued.

THE United States navy sent
Il Richard E. Byrd-he then was
Commander Byrd-into the Arctic
with Commander Donald B. Mac
MILAN in 1925. A new era in polar
exploration was ushered in at that
moment.
Until that moment Arctic explo-
ration had meant ships frozen into
the Arctic ice, their masts and rig
ging covered with a glistening coat
of icicles.
1t had meant days of weary wait
ing as the ship moved sluggishly
with the slow drift ice.
It had meant days of watchful-
ness and danger when the ice be-
gan to break and the ship had to
be guided skillfully between the jag
ged hunlmocks.
Until that moment Arctic eXplo-
ration had meant difficult dashes
over the ice fields with dogs and
sleds. And it had meant days of
patient waiting when storm or bllz-
zard made progress impossible.
Arctic exploration also had meant
tragedy and disaster. A long line
Of heroes had given up their lives
on the ice of both polar regions.
Macmillan and Byrd ushered in
a new era in Arctic exploration, for
MacNIillan'S ship, the BoWdoin, car
ried airplanes.
The airplane is swift and eff
cient. Journeys which take days by
sled can be made in hours by air.
plane.
But perhaps a bit of romance
disappeared with the new efficiency.
At least I gathered that from sew
eral conversations with Macmillan.
There Is always a note of wistful-
ness in his voice when he speaks of
his dogs and the "old days."

MCMILLAN and Byrd had
1V1 planned long flights for the
1925 expedition into the region of
the so-called "pole of inaccessible
ity"
This is a region between Alaska
and the north pole. The center of
this region would be much harder
to reach by sled than the north
pole itself.
However, they abandoned their
plans for the long flight and made
only short exploring trips. Perhaps
they concluded that it would be
wiser to develop the technique of
Arctic aviation slowly.
Captain Roald Arnundsen, dis
coverer of the south pole and the
veteran Of several expeditions into
the north polar region, was the next
explorer to try exploration by air.
plane.
He and Lincoln Ellsworth of
Hudson, O., hoped off from Kings
Bay, Spitzbergen, at Sis p. m. on
May 81, 1925. Amundsen had cal
culated that the trip to the pole and
back would take twenty hours. But
the two planes carried food enough
for thirty days.
The planes were forced down,
however, 1876 miles from the pole.
1t was not until June Is that they
succeeded in getting back into the
air. The members Of the expedi-
ton returned in one plane, the
other having been damaged in land
ing.
It had taken so long to get up
in the air again because of the
difficulties of building runway
on the ice from which the plane
could take off.
The experience led Amundsen to
the conclusion that dirigible would
be better than an airplane for the
work and the following year
Amundsen, Allsworth and General
Mobile took off in the Norge.

a COMMITTEE representing the
"a Federal Church Council is
working out course OF study and
discussion for young people with re-
gard to marriage.
Such course is needed badly one
wonders why it hasn't found a place
in our education system.
Most boys and girls look forward
to marriage as the most important
event in life. They would like to
know all that older people can tell
them about it, but prudishness, or
indifference, stands in the way.
We teach them arithmetic, so that
they won't be rt-changed, and
RATS of political history, with the
idea that it will make them better
citizens, but when it comes to mar
riage, we leave them to blaze their
own trail.
TINE situation is made peculiarly
L difficult because of the way
certain old standards have broken
down.
SO far as the basic instincts are
concerned, young people are about
the same as they always were, about
as romantic, optimistic and desirous
to do the right thing.
When they look about them for
information, however, they are met
with a confusing jargon of con-
tradictions.
In the movies, marriage comes to
happy ending; in the courts. it
comes to divorce.
Why can one couple look across
the table at each other for fifty
years, without a row, while another
can't do it for as many weeks?
Most boys and girls dream not
only of a wedding, but Of a golden
wedding, until they read some
scandalous case in the papers, or
hear a knockdown and dragout next
door

Marriage Is Progress

YOUNG people are wiser about
4 some things than they ever
were before. They have more OPP
portunities to see and hear, espe-
cially the Seamy side of things. ~
They soon learn that marriage
is not necessary to sex relations.
and the first question they ask is
why it should be regarded as so
sacred or binding.
1t has taken the world 10000
years to answer that question, if,
indeed, it can be looked upon as
answered.
Marriage is the result of civil
lied progress, the individual can
get along without it, but society
can not.
Philosophers and theorists have
argued that we could do away with
the family and the home, but they
have yet to prove it.
Civilization requires nothing so
distinctly as an apprenticeship at
the fireSide.
Whatever men and women get out
of it, children get something that
can not be had any other way.
In spite of the large number of
marriages that have turned out un-
happily, men have yet to discover an
institution that affords such salts
faction as the normal home-the
home with four feet on the fender"
as Oliver Wendell Holmes described
it; the home to which grandchildren
return at Christmas, or Thanksgiv-
ing; the home that stabilizes not
only the social order, but the very
government itself.

MEDITATION
When Faust asked Mephistophe-
les who he was, Mephistopheles re-
piled that 'the was part Of a power
that was always evil, but always
doing good" His efforts were con-
stantly being defeated by the more
powerful spirit Of goodness that
dwells in this universe. Shake
speare's tragedies are based on this
idea. Giant evil deeds are always
coming back upon the heads of the
transgressor. There is a backbone
Of righteousness in the universe.
The presence Of evil in the world
frequently is cited as an argument
against faith in righteous uni
verse. But evil that is ever being
destroyed by itself, and defeated by
the power of good, becomes a
