Youth Must
BeGuided.
BY Age
Political Beliefs
Often Require
Diplomacy
BY ANGELO PATRI.

The older generation must be tol-
Grant and patient in considering
the ways of youth in politics. Youth
Is the time Of dreams. Every Young
person firmly believes that he knows
what Is wrong with the country and
what ought to be done to save Il,
More. he Is certain that his ideal
Is practical and can be put into
service Immediately, or Just as soon
as he can get to the seat of power.
His elderly listeners know that
long before the dust of time has
powdered his hair he will have
learned much that will sadden him
and slow him down and turn him
into q liberal, then q liberal-con-
servative. and finally into q con-
Servative, willing to make the best
Of the world as it comes.
Elderly people know that progress
In civilization is a long, slow, dis
heartening progress, indeed. Every
forward step takes its toll in pain
and suffering and death. The law
seems to be that creation is nurtured
by death and decay, and as
each generation passes through the
allotted years 1t pays the price de-
manded by life-disappointment,
grief and death.
II the elders can glimpse the
growth they have fostered they re-
joice. But If they see and feel only
the pain Of the price, they die in
grief and bitterness. This the elders
know, but 1t Is a sealed secret to
youth. 1t can neither see nor hear
it, which perhaps is the kindly way
of Providence.
Youth must struggle to express
the ideal. It must in the nature of
things make mistakes. It annoys
the elders with its noise, the futility
OF some Of its gestures. One of the
strongest characteristics of youth is
the desire to be seen, heard and
given Importance in the scheme of
life. If inviting an improbable
politician to address the youth ex-
cites the elders to wrath, so much
to the good Excitement, opposition
and defiance are the breath of life In
youths nOstrils. The basic error
Is not visible to its understanding.
One must be patient, not indignant.
Elders, too, have made mistakes,
some Of them serious for youth.
In dealing with youthful demon
strations in the political arena our
public leaders need common sense,
wisdom and courage. We tumble too
often in dealing with the young peo-
pie here. There should be no argu-
ment about some points. They
should be taken for granted by every
decent citizen Of this country. For
ore thing, there can be no question
as to where we stand in relation to
American ideals and to the nag that
symbolizes them. To any demon
stration that would 50 much as
question this stand we should pro-
nounce q stern mo"
None Of us Is all-wise. Right is
never with one side exclusively. But
experience has taught us certain
truths that serve us well and we
ought to be able to enunciate them
clearly and with authority. And
there must be those who speak with
authority and whose word Is re-
spected lest we end In chaos.
Youth must speak and age must
listen, but with age lies the last
word. Youth must serve its appren-s
ticeship In life and It's elders are
the only worthy masters from whom
they can expect guidance. We must

However, you should not pick a
f1ippant or facetious name unless
the club is good times organiza-
ton. In other words, the title
should be appropriate not only to
the clubs reason for being, but also
to its spirit. Thus, a musical club
which sings for shut-ins shouldn't
attempt to strike a humorous note
in its title.
Often some common character
istic Of the members, such as the
neighborhood in which they live,
the school of which they are alumni,
or the type Of work they do, can
be included in the name. This is
particularly desirable in larger
cities, where there might be q dozen
clubs devoted to the same activity
and having similar names. Ex-
amples Of such names are the Hill
side Troubadours for q musical or
ganization, the Tenth Street Tigers
for an athletic club, and the Cycling
Secretaries for a group Of office
girls who ride bicycles for recrea-
ton.
Many social clubs like to have
Greek-letter names such as are used
by national fraternities and sorori-
ties. The simplest way to create
such q name Is to pick a two or
three word name in English, then
translate the initials of the words
into the equivalent Greek letters
for your club title. Or the same
procedure may be applied to a short
club motto.
Thus, you might call your club the
Bakers Dozen, then translate the B
and d to Beta Delta for your Greek
letter name. If your knowledge Of
the Greek alphabet is rather sketchy,
get some friend who is active in a
fraternity or sorority to make the
translation for you. He will quickly
tell you that some English letters are
difncult or impossible to turn into
Greek equivalents. SO you will have
to pick your English name accord
ingly.
One factor which makes it difii-
cult for . lot Of groups to choose
their name is that the members
themselves don't have q clear idea
of what the club is all about. Per-
haps they merely got the idea that
it would be nice to have q club, so

of height, she thinks, is to stoop
So stoop she does, while poor Mother
goes around saying. Stand up
straight. put your shoulders back,
you should be glad you're TALL" until
she feels ready to sprout green
feathers and acquire an alteration
for crackers.
We know that there are q great
many delightfully."- tall youngsters
who hate the feeling that they
tower over the older generation as
they usually do. And nothing any
Of their friends or relatives can say
on the merits of height will keep
them from bending over in order to
make themselves look shorter.
Now, we have never set ourselves
up as an advice-to-youngsters de-
partment, but this is one subject
on which we feel very strongly. We
feel that way because it's like beat
ing your head against the nearest
stone wall to know so well the ad-
vantages Of height and not be able
to put them across to others. So,
like a well-meaning Dutch uncle,
we're going to have our say to the
youngsters and the oldsters-even
though we rush in where angels are
observing Do Not Enter signs. 80.
Height Desired
In Fashions.
In the first place, here's q tip
for the tall Titles and Theresas.
Get over that feeling that your
height Is a disadvantage. II girls
are up on their fashion knowledge,
they'll soon realize that the most
photographed, publicized and other
wise "glamorized" girls are those
who are tall enough to stand out
in any company. They'll know that
the lovely models are all long on
inches and short on self-conscious-
ness. More than that, they'll take
look at today's fashions and try
to figure out-as so many shorter
women have-just what chance q
girl has II she isn't sufficiently
tall to "get away with" the
new styles. Fashions are designed
for q tall, slender figure-and be-
lieve us when we say that 1t would
not be 50 II this were not the ideal
type.
Look at your fashion magazines
and papers One glimpse Of the
new, longer torso effect in dresses
and suits should convince you that
1t takes Q Slim and stately girl
to wear them-and they are the
newest and smartest modes. Look
at evening clothes and the pic
lures OF them Do you ever
see Z short model wearing the
really exquisite gowns Of the famous
couturiers7 Take yourself down tc
fashion show and look ut the
models Height is one Of the
principle requirements-so some
body must think its all right.

they formed one and then looked
around for things to do. That sell
dom works.
To be really successful, a club
should be formed for some definite
purpose-not just because it seems
like a good idea at the moment.
Even when the purpose Is merely to
have good times, you still ought to
know exactly why you want the club
before you start 1t. Then you have
some chance Of planning program
which will successfully hold the in
terest of the members.
Many an organization has gone on
the rocks simply because 1t was al
lowed to drift. A purpose, even
though it isn't q terribly serious or
vital one, serves as rudder.
How much formal organization
you need depends on the nature Of
the club. but experience has shown
that well-organized groups which
handle their meetings In a business
like manner are usually more sue
cessful than informal, haphazard
clubs. So even for q purely social
club, it's we'll to have a simple con-
stitution and bylaws, necessary
officers and committees and a regu-
lar procedure for meetings.
And often such incidentals as q
motto, colors, insignia and password
are helpful in making the organi-
zation seem more important to its
members. II you care to have an
initiation ceremony. it can be serious
and impressive or informal and
amusing. as best fits your group and
its purpose.
Next week we'll publish some fur
ther suggestions, covering ways of
raising money and other activities.
In writing to us about any club prob
lem, be sure to tell us what your
organization is all about and what
it's aim in life is, If any. If you
just say, I'VE gotta club and We

Hillbilly Ballads
4 Hit on Big Time
DOleful Mountain Music Is
Popular With Public.

GATLINBURK, TENN.-Hillbilly
ballads from the cabins Of the south
ern Appalachians are getting q
break in the Big Time.
Tunes that never knew any instru-
ment but a fiddle, broomstraws and
a banjo have won popularity with
Dig orchestras as program spicers.
Hillbilly bands are getting fan
mail and mountain folk song SYM
phonies have received acclaim in
recent years.
The mountain songs boast proud
lineage for the most part. Many of
the words and tuns can be traced to
Ehzabethan England. Students and
song collectors have been interested
In them for this reason for years.
But it is only comparatively re-
Gently that the sometimes lifting,
sometimes doleful music has caught
the fancy of the public.
These Southern mountaineers,
with their Anglo-Saxon ancestry, are
a musical lot, and even the poorest
cabin boasts a banjo and fiddle
hanging on the wall, while lots Of
the songs have been preserved
through mountain community sing
lngs and dances. Many are in bet
ter preservation in the Appalachians
than in England and Scotland.
Several cities and towns through
out the mountain area have taken
steps to preserve the mountain folk
songs and dances by sponsoring a
yearly festival with prizes for the
best of them. Collectors have been
assembling mountain ballads for
years.
There's one they sing hereabouts
called "Gypso Davy," obviously
from Scotch legend about a BAN
lshed Gypsy king, Johnny Faa, who
took the wife of one of the lairds
with him when he fed.
SO late in the night when the land
lord came
lnquiring fur his lady,
The answer was quickly replied
She has gone with Gipso Davy.'"
That's the local version.

Animals and Pets Take
Readily to Gas Masks

LONDON.-Animals show a great
deal less objection to wearing gas
masks than men and women do,
said the manager of a firm engaged
in manufacturing supplies of masks
for domestic pets.
Masks for dogs and cats and
horses are being turned out in large
quantities and are proving a sue
cess. Those for dogs and cats are
made in eight sizes and can be ad-
justed in 80 seconds. They are so
made that they cannot be shaken
off and they are easier to breathe in
than the human type. For a horse
the inlet valve is as large as a
big paint can and they weigh two
pounds. Animals wear them plac-
idly.
Large quantities Of these masks
have been sent to Spain, Poland.
Sweden, Belgium and Holland.

people in their teens is dividing the

part of the youngsters, the younger
clergy feel something should be
done about it,
Daily, say the younger clergy,
these young people are marrying
into future which may be filled
with poverty and heartbreak. I'VE
do not blame the man for wanting
to marry the girl he loves before
he leaves for the front, but we think
he should stop and think whether on
his return he can keep her and
probably his war babies
Good luck to the youngsters, -
say the older clergy. These mar
riageS will not turn out so gloomily
as the pesSimiStS think.
And the older clergy saw the re-
suits Of the World wars mass wed
