MT. Borah's Purposes.
Cincinnati Ennllirer

Cincinnati Enquirer
 Although Senator William E. Borah is Singularly difficult subject for the strategems of the mind reader may plausiby guess at his real motives in entering the Ohio primaries Naturally, he is not without some hope of winning the G O. F. nomination for the Presidency. But he is too shrewd man to imagine that his chances extremely good. It is reasonable to suppose therefore, that he has other purposes in seeking test of his strength in Ohio.
 One might be to build up enough influence in the Cleveland convention through election of friendly delegates to give him real voice in the selection of the nominee. MT Borah has definite ideas to the sort of candidate and the sort of platform the G. O. P should choose this year His views widely at vari of the party His chief motive therefore might well be William Jenning Bryan his later years when he was not strong enough to win the nomination any more, but still able to make or break other aspirants.
 Perhaps this assigns to the Idaho Senator some what too Machiavellan a role He has pointed out several times that his chief interest seeing the rank and file of the party given opportunity to choose their nomineea privilege the general mem bership of neither party has, rule If most states choose favoriteson delegations, he notes with much justice they deprive the voters of any influence For the favoriteson delegations after complimentary vote to the object of their supposed affections liberty to maneuver and trade to their hearts content
 Whichever of these motives may Senator Borah there should be no serious objection to his entry into the Ohio poll scheduled for May 12 As long the mere members of a party are voting for delegates to the national convention long as we have machinery for the expression of their pres- dental preferences, the ballots handed out in May might well give the voters real set of alternatives

 Climbing up above the double bend in the trail to where the trees break away and remarkable view of the surrounding country is afforded one is im- pressed with the exceptional advantages of the ski trail Down in the states, winter sports lovers drive a hundred miles to places not nearly as attractive to enjoy outdoor recreation What many chamber of commerce outside" wouldn't give to have such ski run in its front door The Forest Service in build ing the run and the Ski Club in promoting it's may well be building for the future better than they expect With aerial transportation between here and the states. it is not beyond the realm of possibility that this section of Alaska may become sports just have certain regions of Canada and the Pacific Northwest They by the thousands in the summer to view northern wonderland. Is it unreasonable to believe they would come to see our unmatched winter grandeur when transportation be- comes less of problem?
 But aside from the possibilities of the future and they many the Ski trail and the activity of Club is real asset to our immediate community If you saw those youngsters of around 10 H. F and older come flying down the yesterday you were aware that they having the time of their lives and at the same time building sound bodies and alert keen minds.

boy of 19 accepted the social and economic insecurity inherent in the French Revolution: Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive but to be young was very heaven Life is as yet individual thing; we must meet it individuals; and the glory of con- quest is all the more potent when the odds are against
 But there also, in last nights performance a profound lesson for society It is not enough to smile toerantly at what may the intolerance of youth to forgive with parental forbearance its indictment of society in general for the of parents par ticular;" and to regard all that was said by last nights young orators natural expression of youth ful spirits which time and worldly experience will destroy without i'll effect to anyone
 There is more to it than that Society could do well to ponder on even that very indictment which may seem most to be inconsistency: That it has, on hand neglected to provide for youth those economic and moral safeguards which would protect it's in- experience; and, the other hand, has done young people irreparable harm by insisting on doing their thinking for them It would do well to remember sim liar indictment brought against them by Vachel Lindsay:
 Let not young souls be plotted out until
 They do quaint deeds and boldly Haunt their pride
 It is the worlds worst sin-its babes grow dull
 Its poor ox-like, limp and leaden-eyed
 Not that they starve but starve dreamlessly
 Not that they SOW, but that they seldom reap;
 Not that they serve, but have gods to serve
 Not that they die but that they die like sheep.

YOUTHS DAY IN COURT.

One of the most stirring indictments of organized society ever rendered in Juneau was presented last night in the Northern Light Presbyterian church by two fiery representatives of modern youth, George Folta and Dean Williams, high school students who knew what they felt and had the intelligence the hon. esty, and the oratorical ability to say it.
 Briefly stated the indictment charged society with having failed miserably in its duty toward youth during the turbulent years which have followed the last world conflict Billed as a mock trial' the affair almost immediately settled down to a serious affair. Youth passionate in it's arragnment, brutally honest, to the point of contempt of court, in telling society what wrong with it's methods On the other hand the defense represented by prominent citizens from all walks of life, by turns tolerant wounded sorrowful explanatory, and almost cheerfully reminiscent of the hardships of its own boyhood
 Better advice may be rendered youth than that given in the closing address of societys legal repre- sentative, H L. Faulkner. who pleaded with them to accept the challenge of these troublesome times in the same spirit with which William Wordsworth, as

twist here, a twirl there, a peak
somewhere else make the new hats

A brilliant feather, a tilt of the

the trimmings for the new hats
Off-the-face models, berets, brims

pill box hats, models with demure
and coquettish wells, Juliet caps
for evening, afford such an infinite
variety that any woman should be
able to find a hat that is becoming
Even the craziest, and frankly, some

For evening wear little caps, tiny

Hats may also either match the
