HERALD EDITORIALS PROTECTING THE TRAILS Announcement is made that certain mountain trails lead to spots designated for promotion of juvenile depravity. To these resorts boys and girls are said to go unchaperoned to remain over week-ends. No restraint whatever seems to be put on their association. A wrong so gross as this ought not to be tolerated for an instant. One of the problems demanding to be dealt with constantly is that of juvenile crime. Such crime must arise largely through the lack of training. Another problem that causes great distress, often when too late, is the disappearance of girls. At a tender age, just when most in need of parental guidance they vanish. The idea that boys and girls have the privilege of visiting such resorts as those mentioned, is monstrous, but it explains many things, explains the breaking down of proper convention, the flippancy of youth, and the disregard by the young for what usually are looked upon as decencies. Existence of such resorts is vouched for by the western division officer of the National Woodcraft league. He has taken many of groups of boys into the hills, and he knows the temptations that would beset these lads, had they been permitted to take the trips without proper guardianship. MOVIES ON TRIAL It his been said many times that the movies are on trial in the court action wherein Roscoe Arbuckle is defendant. This cannot be regarded as just in the wide application that it makes.

MOVIES ON TRIAL It his been said many times that the movies are on trial in the court action wherein Roscoe Arbuckle is defendant. This cannot be regarded as just in the wide application that it makes. The movies are on trial in a restricted sense because certain producers having large sums tied up in films featuring Arbuckle, desired not to lose their money. They probably think that his vindication would restore him to favor, and in this they, in all probability, are utterly mistaken. In the sense touching upon personnel, the movies are not on trial at all. The public has no toleration for the social excesses in which Arbuckle is said to have lived. A vindication as to a specific act charged, could not place the comedian back where he was. His fall was too spectacular and absolute. He fell clear out of the scene. An illustration of the unfairness of lumping all movie people, and condemning the lot for the conduct of a few, was observed in the recent statement of a Canadian magistrate. Meting out severe punishment for some misdeed, he mentioned Arbuckle and told the defendants that this would "teach them not to be Douglas Fairbanks heroes." Fairbanks never figured in a picture in any way morally defective. His heroes always are clean, kindly and of noble spirit. No element tending to exalt evil enters into any story he portrays. No vicious lesson is conveyed. There was no excuse for dragging his name into a criminal case. Arbuckle will have to be judged on merit. Whatever truth concerning him may be revealed, either for good or ill, it must pertain to him individually. The attempt to drag other screen people in as "atmosphere" is unfair to them and to the public. WHAT HUGHES MEANT Before the conference there was frequent remark that the delegates should put their cards on the table. Cards so placed must be face up. The figure, as applied to the conference, simply meant that there ought to be complete frankness. Secretary Hughes was the first to speak. His cards went on the table. There was the absolute directness that had been desired. Speaking for the administration, he told what the United States was ready to do, and what it would expect the others to do. Even at this, there were some who suspected a bluff. The spectacle of directness in diplomacy was so novel. They could not accept it as a reality. Having clamored for it, having seen it happen, they could not believe that it had happened after all. Secretary Hughes was the first to speak. His cards went on the table.

Having clamored for it, having seen it happen, they could not believe that it had happened after all. Belief is not lacking now. The world knew a few moments after the beginning what Hughes had said, and chose to wonder what he meant. It has found that he meant exactly what he said, this and nothing more nor less. Yet the correspondents employed for the purpose try to create belief that the occasion that resulted from the invitation of the President, and was marked by the utterance of Hughes, is nothing but an instance of Europe engaged in dictating to the United States. Even a seasoned correspondent of a certain type does not shrink from making himself ridiculous if the inducement is large. PIANO BESS L. BENNETT 114 So.

They don't think Gardner a hero, intend to try him, and would like to hang him. Autoists ran down two Los Angeles police officers in one day. This looks as though the speeders were seeking reprisals. Between Ourselfs By Della M. Stewart There's a breaking point of temper with us all. Not always can most of us control the spark within. Not always can we remain sweet and patient and forgiving. There must come a time when forbearance ceases to be a virtue and we substitute justice for mercy, impatience for forbearance. We don't always remember this in our dealings with others. Many a disposition has been all but ruined by constant teasing, and nagging has broken up many an otherwise happy home. Nagging is such a senseless proposition. Very few of us can govern by force, if we would. Very few of us can "make" even the members of our families conform to our will. Our only hope lies in making the way appear so attractive that they voluntar... RUNAWAY MATCHES SELDOM SUCCESSFUL SAYS NOTED PASTOR That more than 85 per cent of runaway marriages are failures was the declaration made recently by the Rev. Dr. George Clark Houghton, rector for the last twenty-four years of the world-famous Little Church Around the Corner in New York. "I turn fifty couples away every month, refusing to marry them for various reasons," Dr. Houghton said. "I do not mean that the choice of the parents is always best. However, it is my observation that less than fifteen out of 100 secret or hasty marriages weather the storms of the matrimonial seas. I cannot say what percentage of happy marriages result from the usual planned weddings, but it is many, many times greater than inlandment marriages." "Contrary to popular opinion, some of the most beautiful examples of married life are to be found in the theatrical profession. Of course, like the butcher, merchant or lawyer, theatrical folks have their disagreements that sometimes lead to the divorce courts. But some of the happiest of married couples are to be found in the profession." PREACHER PRISONER PAYS ALL HIS TAXES LONDON, Nov. 26—Rev. G. B.

In that sad After-while Are the shadows of things never done; the day goes, We delay—and tomorrow—tomorrow—who knows? Yes, that sad After-while where so often we thrust The things we should do, and they moulder to dust, We resolve—and forget—and the passing day goes Into dark, and tomorrow—tomorrow—who knows? After-while—yes, I know—I shall find the time then To do what I've meant to do time and again, But the days go so fast and the suns and the snows Shine and drift, and tomorrow—tomorrow—who knows? And the word I would say and the song and the smile That I had in my mind to bring forth after while, I found them long after, but you were gone then, And the time you might hear them came never again. After while—how the pale ghosts of things never done Come forth from the tomb there, each shadowy one, With cerements clinging in damp and in mould, Of friendships unspoken and loves never told. Yes—the song that was sweet had it ever been sung; The speech that was glad had I given it tongue; The deed that was kind had I done it! So goes The day—and tomorrow—tomorrow—who knows? So give me your hand and a word and a smile, And I'll give you mine; for that sad After-while Has pale ghosts enough; and the day's near its close, And tomorrow—tomorrow—tomorrow—who knows? rimonial seas.

SIMPLE FIRST AID FOR AILING CLOCKS When the old clock lies down on the job and insists on taking a rest in-spite of your shaking and twirling, the trouble is generally that the cold has gummed the oil and put the brakes on some of the more delicate adjusted moving parts. The cure is easy. Put the clock on the stove. Let it heat through thoroughly—of course, not enough to melt the solder in the case or scorch the face—and the gummed oil will soften and run out of the bearings, leaving just enough to keep everything in the old standby working smoothly. PREACHER PRISONER PAYS ALL HIS TAXES LONDON, Nov. 26—Rev. G. B. Borrill of Islington has just paid his taxes, a commonplace enough thing to do, but for Rev. Borrill this involved the end of a self-imposed imprisonment in his own house for ten months to keep from having a process served. He considered the tax assessment exorbitant and declined to pay at once, but gave his word that he would pay as soon as he got the money. For ten months he remained indoors to avoid having a process served, a detail of policemen being on duty outside his house part of the time hoping to serve the process if he strolled out. His friends brought his food and mail and he sat in his window and pulled them up by rope. Newport Harbor Tides (Prepared by Leeds & Barnard consulting engineers, from U. S. C and G. S. Tide Tables.)
