Youth Problems Cured
By Religion. Home-Iife

u ECAUSE life is inevitably diff
ID ferent from what it was a
generation ago, there is an ever
present conflict in homes between
parents and children. This strife is
accentuated because today young
people grow up more quickly.
On behalf Of the November Co.'S
mopolitan magazine, Ryllis and
Omar Goslin went to both parents
and children to find out their points
of view. They went also to the ex-
perts and solicited their feelings.
Here is what Mrs. John l.. White
hurst, President of the General
Federation of Women's Clubs had to
say on the subject.
"The older generation has no rea-
son to complain about youth. Youth
emulates the practices and behav-
iorisms of those around them. At
time when every principle formu-
lated out of the experience of CEN
turtles is challenged, when our Amer
lean political, social and economic
systems are on the defensive, when
even religion has not escaped, it is
the sacred duty of the older genera
ton to cease complaining and put
all their energy into helping youth.
"a return to good old-fashioned home
life and religion would obviate many
so-called youth problems"

Farm Couple Caught in Blizzard
Nearly Die Ten Feet From Home

CTRUGGLING in darkness, par
- alyzing cold, and choking snow
that stalled their car, blotted out
all objects, and blew them off a
country road into the fields, ME-.
and Mrs. Henry Sterger, of Fish
er, Minnesota, are survivors today
of an extraordinary blizzard ex-
perience.
The Stergers were not more
than half a mile from their home
when the blizzard caught them. 1t
struck so suddenly that within
minute they could not keep the car
on the road. When they pulled
up to consider what to do, the car
at once started to fill with powder
ed snow which the terrific wind
forced in around doors and win
dows.
They knew they would freeze
to death there, so they got out to
walk the rest of the way. At once
the wind seized them, blowing
them off the roadway a hundred
feet into a field. There Sterger
got out his fiashlight and, holding
it close to the ground, discovered
traces of plowed burrows. Cling
ing to each other, guided by the
burrows and the direction of the
wind, the two worked their way
back to the road.
They used the flashlight contin-
uously to check whether they
were still on the roadway or in
fields. Their progress was so slow
that it was more than an hour
later when their light fell on
something solid at the edge of the
road. They recognized this as the
railing of a culvert near their
home. Mrs. Sterger was now bad
ly frostbitten and becoming ex-
hausted.
Three times the Stergers made
the turn up toward their house.
Each time they failed to find it, re-
tracing their steps to the culvert
railing to take new bearings. Once,
as they discovered afterward, they
missed the corner of their home
by less than ten feet. On their
fourth trip from the railing their
light disclosed a building. This
turned out to be corn barn. Ster-
ger broke into it, found some wood
and made a small fire over which

The ThumbnuiI October
BY OGDEN NASH

(Rebrinted from November CoJmoboltan)
October is the month autumnal
When the college alumni grow more
alumnal;
When the mortgage floats DER the
giant stadium,
And the halfback is worth his
weight in radium;
When the sports page teens with
expert visions,
And referees reverse their
decisions.
II think it was also in October
That America was discovered by a
well-known halfway-around-the-
