one who says that the younger gen.
Grafton is bad has forgotten things
that happened in their youth, in
the opinion of Truman H. Ketchum,
Seattle's first truant officer, who
held that post for 18 years.
The younger generation isn't bad,
but miSchievouS-the same as 25
years ago, Ketchum declared. Gin
parties, rumble seat necking and
airplane elopments have just taken
the place of playing post office,
buggy rides, and stepladder elope-
mentS.
Ketchum's prescription to keep
young moderns on their good be-
havior includes:
Make friends with your children
they'll listen to a friend.
Get out of the idea that every
little prank is immoral.
Don't try to shift responsibility
for the youngster on to the school.
Don't say, Things were different
when I was boy" You know darn

BIBLE OF EXILED MEXICAN
EMPRESS ENROUTE HOME

ally was, at one time, the property
of the Empress family, the Itur-
bides.
For 20 years the book had been
in the possession of Harris, who had
no idea of its historical value. A
ianitor in the office building where
Harris worked as a young man
found the Bible among other cast
off papers in an office vacated by a
tenant. One cover was missing. The
other was sewed on. Several leaves
from foreign plants were pressed
between the pages. In place of the
family record there were several en-
tries which enabled Harris to con-
meet it with the Iturbide family.
He kept the volume, however,
merely as an interesting antique,
1t was not until last October that
he read an article about the Itur-
hides and the Empress exile ia
Philadelphia in newspaper.
He Immediately checked dates
and data in the article with the no
tations i'll the Bible, and finding
that they tailed, communicated
with the Mexican embassy.
AS the result, the Mexican gov
eminent is at least one Bible ahead
