Compelling School Attendance.

The prosecution of parents for not sending their children to school is commendable. When fathers and mothers permit their offspring to

absent themselves from school, they are working a hardship on the children. Not the parents but the children are the real sufferers. The state

owes it to society to insist that every child within its jurisdiction be given sufficient schooling to

enable them to face the struggles of life without j too heavy a handicap. When parents, too negligent or ignorant to appreciate this truth, keep their children from school, then the state must step in to protect itself. It seems strange that years ago when education was not brought to the very doors of the homes, parents appreciated its worth and often put themselves to considerable expense and inconvenience to have their, children schooled. Many a father and mother who did not have the . opportunity of obtaining an education themselves, realized its importance so much that they considered it a priceless boon. Many a professional man of today is the son of parents who

could scarcely read and write. This handicap impelled such parents to insist that their children were not left in the same plight but were educated.

Not an American Evil, Solely. . r:' I 1 The reign of anarchy at Youngstown, Ohio,!

has ended. Soldiery and the sober senses of the! persons involved have by this time stayed furth-j er ravages of arson and murder. Tremendous!

damage was done to property, human lives were j

butchered, and Youngstown has been given no

toriety which will not down for many years. Carping critics of American life may point to the Youngstown riots as . an argument that American institutions are weak and that Americans are prone to jump to excesses whenever their indigation reaches fever heat and a leader suggests the use of fire and guns. The Youngstown affair is a deplorable one,

but the persons who took part in it, and the causes that incited them to forget law and .decency, are not a whit worse than persons in Europe and provocative conditions that exist there. Scenes of murder and arson have followed many an outbreak of excitement in European cities, and the damage that has been done there by

disorderly mobs is tenfold what actually took place in Youngstown. Men are the same the world over. In all of us reigns the same evil desire, and when this completely overwhelms the good instincts and traits, we quickly enter the class of irresponsible persons who work mischief, suffering and death. Youngstown' s disorderly and law-defying scenes might be reproduced here, in Chicago, Boston, London or Berlin. We are not immune. Youngstown does not deserve condemnation and

reproach, but commiseration and pity. The world ought to be charitable enough to appreciate how frail is human temper, and how easily men are

"induced to do the evil thing.1' Perhaps, hundreds

who took part in the arson and murder in the Ohio city, today are filled with remorse and regrets, and wonder how they could have forgotten themselves so far as to take part in the orgies that were enacted.

EARLY CITY HISTORY Contributions on the pioneer days of Richmond will appear in this column daily.

A FLOOD IN WHITEWATER. The oldest Inhabitants could not recall such a flood as -was seen In the vaUey in January. 1S47. The country lor miles north of Richmond was covered with water, the smaller streams were out of their banks, and the river west of Richmond was overflowing. A very high plank dam had been built just north of the present site of the Starr Piano factory. Basil Brightwell had built this dam with the intention of holding the entire stream of water, only releasing it in sufficient quantities to run his mill. This would have ruined the mills below. His

friends remonstrated telling him he would ruin his dam as well as injure his neighbors. The dam was nearing

completion when the flood came. It furnished a lodgment for all the drift

floated off the country above. There were saw-logs, stumps and trees, small buildings and dead animals. A roaring, seething mass of muddy water and debris. For several days the hillsides were crowded, with people watching to see the dam give way. Finally the water began to run over and, it had also cut a smaU channel through the soft embankment of earth which had been thrown up to protect the dam. The water had been backed

up the river for several miles above

Richmond, and when tne dam gave way, the water and drift-wood rushed down with relentless force through the valley filling it fromhill to hill, and causing destruction to the mill properties below. The dam was torn out, the head gates to the race destroyed, fences and small buildings

carried away. Fortunately the fam

ily escaped from the valley to the hills. For a time it looked as if the

foundation of the building would be

undermined. Happy valley was entirely submerg

ed except a few feet In front of the barn-door where the cow, the dog and

three pigs took refuge. It. was twenty

four hours before the flood subsided

so that a man on horse back could reach the building and report the ex

tent of the damage. .

Thus the selfishness of one man

ruined the property of another, as

well as bankrupting himself. Public

censor and the loss of his property

caused him to commit suicide. Such a flood must be seen to be fully appre

ciated.

And the man who bought it got his money back in two seasons. For 20 years John Dane failed to make a living on 64 acres. He tried corn, truck and other crops that he could have sold in a good market four miles away. But the farm did nothing except sprout seed. The new owner took it in the winter. Although there was no rain from May 10th to September 1st, he produced and fed $1800 worth of silage to beef cattle the first good crop that farm had borne in 20 years. And that first summer he increased the fertility so much that the next season he got the whole purchase price back. And he's made a living plus ever since. How? He did it by practicing the kind of farming that is found every week in
