A TRIBUTE TO THE SCOUT. When jvu ae the little Boy Scout la his uniform just think of this. To bo sure, the home and the school for the roost part ars to be depended upon to train the young hoya of the country into citizenship, citizenship which embraces In Its practical creed the duty of consistent, scrupulous lawfulness. There are some other organisations, howTr, which supplement in a valuable way the efforts of the parents and teachers in teaching the duty of respecting and obeying the laws of the city, Ftato and nation. A few days ago a New York Judge was asked some questions about Boy Scouts. He said: "During my ilx years as a police Judge I have never had a Hey Boout come before me aa a defendant." There is something to think about. Boy Scouts do not get Into court because they do not give !n their behavior the occasion for officers to arrest them or people to complain against them. The secret Is the spirit of the Scout training; there is discipline; there la education about obligations; there is inspiration to be manly and brave; there is loyalty taught, loyalty to law and order. The Boy Scout is so busy doing the serviceable, the helpful, the orderly, the lawful thing that he doesn't have time to get into trouble by breaking the ordinances and the laws. '

To those who once feasted on theatrical delights j

like these it does not seem that tne insurgents win get very far iu their attempts to establish on the stage a 'cosmic Rene." Not unlens It has in it a snow storm.

TAKING THE JOY OUT OF VACATIONS While the ultra-careful and the pessimists tend to take the joy out of vacations for those who will listen to them by issuing warnings against not only every possible danger, from poison ivy to rattlesnakes, but also all the evils they can imagine, prudence nevertheless will recognize that there is demand for reasonable care when sojourning in the country. Although one should net go forth on a vacation equipped or fortified as if to tour a Jungle for ferocious beasts or venomous reptiles, overlooking that the main purpose or the trip is rest or to free the mind of ordinary cares by a change of scene and occupation, there is nothing like carelessness to take the Joy out of an outing. It is not necessary to suspect all water when on a train. Confidence can be placed in the supplies of reputable hotels or boarding houses and in the average spring recommended for a camp site. Where there is the least ground for suspicion, however, no risks shculd be taken. Better put in the time necessary to boil the water than come home with typhoid. There may be times when warnings tax patience, but the real enemy of the vacationist is the spirit of carelessness that neglects every precaution.

The Passing

Show

WELL NOW, HOW ABOUT THIS T To the great run of theatergoes it may not yet be apparent that there Is an Insurgent movement in the theater, but some persons who say they have their ears tb the ground report that the tide is running strong toward Insurgency la the theater. If what Is given out by a recent writer In the Forum la correct, it would not b surprising If tbj Insurgency tide presently ran Itself clear out of the theater. ""We are getting," he says, "what is called the expressionist play, the synthetic drama of Marlnetti, Ricciardl'3 theater of color, the grotesque theater, and Scardonal's dramatic polyphonism, or new dramatic unity, In which last we are told dialogue is to be deprived of Its supremacy and made to fuse with other elements cf the play the pauses of silence, the words, the gestures, lights, colors, all of which will combine to establsh "a coamlc xone" Those of us who have maintained in this alleged theatrical npheaval a position, if not ct aggressive conservatism at least of discreet neutrality, may wonder what all this means. Even the neutral spectator, however, will feel some concern about this insurgent movement in the theater; particularly if his memory takes him back twenty or thirty years. Will this insurgent crowd give us back the tear-duct-draining, applauseprovoking "plays of yore? We believed in action in those days on both sides of the footlights. The sawmill scene, the mid-ocean shipwreck, and ether perils of Hre and flood, gave us a hand and fKt, and vocal organs. For the softer sentiments we turned with relish to the offerings of '"East Lynne" and "The OM Hcim-ntead."

A POPULAR PEACE PARTY. When President Harding issued Invitations for his party of the powers at Washlngtcn he scarcely anticipated that the Idea was going to be so popular as to cause others than those so remembered to clamor for bids to the gathering. But the suggestion concerning the discussion of Pacific and Far Eastern questions has caused other nations having interests in that neighborhood to sit up and take notice. There Is said to be a feeling in Holland that its government shculd be Invited to sit In at Washington, not only on account of its holdings in the Far East, which give it a direct interest in the proceedings, but because the settlement of these questions will have a bearing on reduction of armaments. Holland's recent plans for a huge increase of her East Indian fleet have been inspired by doubt of Japan's future policy. She is not arming against any other nation. Belgium also would like to be included In the Washington conference, and if Holland is invited she could not very well be left out. The excuse under which Belgium seeks an invitation is that she has been the victim of a policy of unrestricted armaments and consequently is interested in any movement to have the big nations cease their mad rush for military and naval supremacy. Probably Mr. Harding will not object to extending his hospitality beyond its originally contemplated limits, although he will be mindful of the danger that the basic purpose of the conference, discussion of reduced armaments and Far Eastern questions, might be mlmimlzed by the introduction of other issues of international importance. One result of enlarging the membership of the conference would be to remove any excuse for the British proposal to hold preliminary meetings in London. Washington is the only place for the conference. To nold preliminary discussions anywhere else would be suggestive of the old 'fctyle, discredited diplomacy which, it had been hoped, had been discarded forever. The principal powers are asked to meet at Washington without any previous understandings or compacts jnd talk over, freely" and frankly, the prospects for stopping the ruinous competition in armaments and for removing potential causes of war In the Pacific.

SOME OF the Democratic newspapers who have been poking fun at President Harding for his delay In carving federal pie shculd give thought to the poor Democrats who are going to lose their places at the table when he does.

AN ARTIST in New York received word that one cf his paintings won a prize just in time to save himself from eviction for unpaid rent. Nice for things like that to happen when a fellow is flat broke.

BURGLARS IN a Georgia town laboriously opened a safe and took 575 in pennies but overlocked $6,000 in bills left on a counter. They no doubt think the cashier should be punished for his careleHsnesn.
