A THOUGHT The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done; and there is no new thing under the sun.—Eccles. 1:9. , Study the past if you would divine the future—Confucius. Magazines, Good And Bad In an open letter to a Rhode Island paper, a thoughtful citizen calls the attention of mothers and fathers to the fact that magazines of doubtful value are sold in the city “by dealers who ought to care,” and are easily obtainable by young people who may be ad- versely affected by what they road. He thinks that parents should familiarize themselves more fully with the magazine literature on sale, and be on guard against it. . The suggestion is a good one. The great trouble in making any campaign for suppression eEectivc, however, is that tastes and opinion dificr so widely as to what is or is not harmful reading matter. Naturally if any dealers are handling periodicals which are actually vicious or obscene. steps should be taken to stop the practice. With magazine reading as with other diversions, the more young people can be interested in what is clean and wholesome, the less they w'll turn to the other kind, and the more closely fathers and mothers keep in touch with this branch of their children’s lives, ‘ch more they will be able to bring good influence to bear. Indian Dancing The Indians have been forbidden to hold their customary dances, and they object to the order. The simple redskin, with his one-track mind, says he cannot see why he should not be allowed to dance as long as the white man does. A A good many white men will agree with their red brother about this. Dancing is one of the oldest human activities. It seems to be a natural way of expressing fundamental human emotions, as well as a way of getting wholesome exercise. With the “lower races” the dancing is largely ceremonial in nature. . Our Indian dancing is essentially’so. Why grudge such Observances to the poor Indians, whose pent- up life on the reservation, goodness knows, has become quite flat and stale enough? As for morals, if half that the critics have said in late years about white dancingis true, the Indian pracing can’t be any worse. Across Russia By Water \Ynltcr Duranty, American news correspondent in Russia and authority on the Russian situation, writes of a significant Russo- German combination to promote trade with the Far East. According to Mr. Duranty, a company has been formed by rep- resentatives oi: the Soviet government and the old and wealthy German express and transportation company of Robert Belikhaus, of Hamburg. This company plans to utilize for its trade routes the river systems and canals in which Russia abounds. These already are practical for light barge trafic and can be developed at small expense. ly means of the waterways there is possible from Petro- grad to the Caspian Sea a direct route which, Says Mr. Duranty, “can tap the age-old Asiatic caravan routes at a fraction of the ton-cost of the Bagdad railway.” If this scheme should develop to any considerable extent it is diflicult to estimate how greatly it would add to the economic com- plications and jealousies in Europe. Mr. Duranty rightly gives it place among the most important happenings in those regions. Presidential Evening Dress St. Augustine, Fla., has been all upset lately because President Harding appeared at a motion picture show in the leading hotel dressed in a white flannel suit and white shoes instead of the regu- lation evening black. So rigid are the style rules there that if it had been anyone else, he might have been put out. But the hotel flunkies didn’t quite dare to put out 'the President of the United States. . ‘ Now the question is whether the President committed a sar- torial indiscretion or established a social precedent. And a very serious question it is, it you may credit the hotelkeepers and the wealthy birds of passage who flock to southern resorts. If this were England, there would be no trouble whatever about it. The King can do no wrong sartorially. Whatever he wears, if not already the style, straightway becomes the style. But not so much social prestige attaches to the Presidency. Truth to tell, we have had Presidents so careless about their costumes as to shock. some of our best people. So there is no telling what may come from the revolutionary conduct ob Mr. Harding. , If there is any more fuss about it, possibly the President could get the hotel men to agree to a compromise a la Mark Twain, who -‘ wore a white dress suit. ., 7" The United States Weather Bureau does not consider the new- OS‘ISID-mtklng system practical.
