MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1924
Those who read newspaper accounts of the dolines of Lord Renfrew, better known as the Primes of Wales, must wonder when that much written about person is going to take the vacation for which he came, to the United States. So far he seems to have done nothing but provide pages of space for solo artists, feature writers, fashion artists, and press association correspondents. His vacation seems to have turned into an endurance race between the royal party and persistent crowds of reporters and camaraderie.
It must cause readers to wonder just what the Prince would have done with his time and be come to this country in his official capacity as heir to the British throne with its incumbent responsibilities and social obligations. Enriched by secret-service men and staff officers he would probably have enjoyed greater freedom of movements and mind than de is now having as a main member of the English nobility.
As it he, he has had to fight his way through crews, beep for privacy, and tax his strategic power to the utmost in keeping clear of the throes that have followed him from the time he set foot on American soil. Every movement has been watched and hernied by the lynx-eyed gentlemen of the press who have been detailed to chronicle his doings.
Perhaps the Prince will know better the next time he comes to America and will not put his faith in declarations and requests to keep him safe from the approaches of the over curious. He will take cover beneath the robes of official office and international protection and courtesy which afford him that protection which is impossible when he has declared himself to be free game by coming in the guise of a plain citizen of the British Empire.
WHO IS TO BLAME?
A distracted hap of junk piled unceremoniously by the roadside with four wheels pointed heavenward in no uncommon sight these days. The pedestrian crosses streets in relays, and breathes a sigh of relief as he reaches the opposite side after bowing his back to make room for a Pierce-Arrow to whist past.
Three boys, an equal number of girls, and a ear that will do sixty make as dangerous a combination as a Kansas cyclo-care. Car ride are in vogu these days, and to ride calmly along admiring cow pastures and hill-tops is no excitement for youth. There must be thrills. Turning corners on two wheels, racing cars, bearing trains, brushing pedestrians, speeding—furnish a good evening's entertainment for the average boy.
Death—unnecessary death—is the foll of steak driving. And who is blame? Youth—impetuous youth—daredvills looking for thrills—are the bane of the traffic officers today. Youth will take its chance, and if they live, it will go down in memory as thrill number 77.
And as a consequence five thousand graves are due annually to pay for reckless driving, mostly from reckless youths. Can law prevent this waste of life? Can frezenied appeals to common sense help? Or must youth have its thrills and the public its puills.
RESPECT
Is a man supposed to uncover his head when the flag of the nation carried by—or isn't he? The solider stands at salute. It was observable in the recent Defense day exercise.
--that must of the audience out of uniform united as one man in leaving its head covering settled firmly on its base. Some mark of respect for the flag should be observed by the citizen as well as the soldier.
THE AVES HAVE IT
THE AYES HAVE IT
Reactions from the recent Loc-Leopold trial have awakened curious trains of thought in the public mind. One of these was reflected in a recent cartoon picturing the dismay of the general public upon comparing its own illibrium with those described by the alliances for the defiance as "abnormal."
Which leads one to believe that the words, "All the world's gone mad," may have a truth meaning than the rhetorical one we have been led to expect.
Some people may be said to be crazy in one way over one thing—i.e. in another way over another thing. Some are crazy in and over several things. Those having the most adherents to the same idea decide the insanity of those not observing the same symptoms.
The ayes have it. Did we?

Editorial of the Day
Erase "Ough" and Write "Want"
One of the earliest tales a baby learns to say, after he has mastered "mma-na" and "dia-da", and can say they to satisfy his parents—in the brief phrase, "I want." In the early days he says the action to the word "would," as in "you would in the ways of the world be may serf them I want" to a more diplomatic form.
Many of the things we want, or think we want, are not good for us. Other things we ought to have we don't want.
Education is certainly one of the things we ought to have; in fact, we ought to want it, but at certain ages we don't. We want clothes and friends and nativity and a nodiculture, we don't need deep hampions for an education. Why? Is it because education is not good for us? Certainly not. At least part of the reason why is some of the people who run education have not taken a leaf from the manufacturer's bookstore and found where it hilbersd? did not exist.
That sort of thing is rapidly changing. Education is coming to be "sold." Correspondence courses have helped. In their advertising literature and in the salemans talk, indirect inducements offered for study, reading, straying.
In creating a desire for this type of education, nothing is said about "comfortable dormitories, well-equipped athletic fields, spacious atmospheres, health-giving breces from the sea," etc., etc. Rather the appeal is to body such end-such a course you will fetch such end-such an objective."
True enough, the babyboo is some thing exaggerated. But a significant principle underlies it.
There are thousands of men in "American schools and colleges whose motives for being there are hazy. They life and want the glorious com- ments they desire. Their thirst is not so much for the clear waters of the Pleiian spring as for the fascinating flesh-pots of athletic, glamor, social advancement. Such men want something from college, but do they want the best it of all?
In Europe there are students who live in semi-poverty, hundreds of them. Men have walked Literally with bleeding feet from Russia to Prague, driven by the desire, the pain and the fear that their motives are akin to those that kept a backwoods boy awake nights studying by the light of pine knees and urged another young American to hold a Greek text-book in one hand while sitting on the other. Wanted focus on education that is the story of such lives.
Teachers, parents, students, editors,
writers—to these is committed the primary responsibility for passing along to each generation the strong, essential skills and task of erasing the word ought and writing over it the word want.
