MODERN HEROES ARE WRONG SORT America Suffer* Loss of Idealism With Prize lifiht ers and Movie Stars Held Up As Examples to Youth. Dt*. Moines, July 6.?America will suffer a loss of Idealism in the future because of ihe prominence given to bugn salaries and fees paid ?to movie stars, prize fighters. and baseball player*, according to Clar ence Hamilton, of Boston.

Likewise the movie stars who can go through somes capers aud simulate virtues which they do not possess, are her alded as great men and women 4)2 cause they attract buyers of tickets to box-offices. The same is true of baseball players. "Boys and girls and young men and women who emulate these weak lings. termed and pictured as heroes and heroines, are building on sand. The real heroes are those who are contributing to our physical and mental and spiritual well-being. They should be lauded and emulated The Idealism of America will suffer If the false standards of youth are ?accepted by a large proportion of our American youth.
