To Put Up Bars Across the Road That Is Now
Luring High School Pupils
Py P. E. MORTF.' "V, CMc ;o Sun- r nten lent of Schools.
The board of edn<-ati->n of t'e city of Chicago calls upon parent* to
aid in putting up bars a.r >>s the road thrvt is luring high school pupils.
We believe the modern method of dancing has done much to break
duwij respect for womanhood. We feel that no effort on our part can
c jntera : tht« evil unless the parents rea':.:e tlie dauber aud help us mam
tu.n the standard*.
We believe that ja:.i n::;«io h;i« done much to corrupt dancing and
E-.ake t impossible ' r v .c people to learn nn>re refined forms of
dancing, at the -auic tin. vitiating their ta-te for good music.
We believe the unre-'rirted use of the automobile is another demoral
izing inftuemr ati'l t t - who allow i«>>> n tl .r tewis to take high
». h>>ol girls "joy riding" are d • i;g much to brtaK down the moral stand
ards of the community.
Extreme" in dress are deplorable. We believe that mothers should
know that modestv and simplii it* in high school girls' costume* are moat
helpful and uplifting to the school ideals.
Students should a! ide bji the state ia» prohibiting their smoking. Like
w -e. the; should keep wh' V-><iiie hours and .-hould devote live nights a
week to sch'iol work.
Jt is the intention of the 'ir ! of education ami it* officer* that all
dance* given bv the pup ls f any high «ch"ol -hall be conducted within
ti c high school but'ding, :f pot-- Mr. \\ h<>ii this i* not possible the affair
is to be so advertised that parents can make no mistake as to the respon

Lawyer's Place in Government of Law and
Order of Great Importance
Ey H. M. DAUGHEKTY. United States Attorney General.
I have always held the lesjal profession iu tlie
h .'he-t i'«;i*ra, ami now, after having had the expe
r;n . e of one year as attorney general of the I'nited
M:!'* ». I can -a i that I a:n prouder than ever uot only
of the la» a- a pnile.-.-.oii hut of the American lawyer, i
The American ImVyer. his ideais. ami his concep
tion of - rvue, a.- «>11 a- his character and equipment!
otli intellectual and t: : il, ;ire of paramount inipor-j
tance to every man w ho h • - h - country and cherishes j
tb welfare. The very nature of constitutional gov-1
eminent makes the mission of the lawyer one ofl
fundamental importance. Ia.a government of law anil order ttie lawyer i
must occupy a commanding pc-tiun. His relation to the state bring*;
to hitn the call of public service. His relatbu to clients, in the private |
affairs of life. demand of htm intellectual and moral qualities of the
highest kind.
If the state requires such high and important service of the legal
profession, flit- lawyer who meets these requirements must be possessed of
that intellectual and moral equipment that makes him efficient in per
forming the-^e duties. In uu calling are courage and fidelity more essential
than in the legal profusion. We admire brilliancy, but, by comparison,
*e discount brilliancy while we hold integrity at a premium.
Therefore, since the American bar must furnish the judges for our
judicial svstem, both state and natiuul, and since from its ranks must
come that vast concourse of voting lawyers in the future who shall be the J
educative influence to hold public opinion in sound notions of government,
it is of deep and grave concern to our republic that the ranks of the
American bar shall be recruited with young men who not only have the
moral character that shall make them trustworthy in handling a client'?
caus* but shall have that moral and intellectual endowment that shall
nuke them able to respond to ever) call of then country.

tbe calf up the bank and Into the barn. I
In the same town, scouts dl»cov
ered, within 30 minutes, a lost child
for whom tbe police had searched In

covery was due to the fact that a j
scout had observed a child answering

cUely where he had Been the child.

" Try The Home Market First"
As a Northerner, a Pioneer, an Cpbullder of Alaska, yen are
peered every time you hear of the appointment of a "carpetbagger"
to fill one of the political offices of the territory, because you fcaow
that there are capable and efficient meo living In the territory Who
could fill the offices with perfect satisfaction, who are helptng to
build up the territory and make it a worth while place In which to
live.
Is Is a parallel case when Northerners send their money out
side for supplies that may be bought right here at home and five
better satisfaction than the "carpetbagger" etuff Imported from the
sute* : >
Is It not a fact that we are all working to build op the North
to make It a worth-while place In which to lire, and by "trying yoor
home market first" you are strengthening the foundation for tfeit
