HERE'S TO OUR YOUNG
PEOPLE!
Hundreds of thousands of young
men and women, all over the United
States, have resumed their studies
in the schools and colleges of the
nation.
The ambition, the enthusiasm and
the ideals of these young people are
of striking significance. Marked
mostly by its absence, as compared
with other groups, is the greed and
selfishness that distinguish the cal
culated policies of older persons.
The Enterprise has never been
among the calamity howlers who in
sisted that our young people are
'?going to the dogs." They are
the great asset of the nation and
throughout the world the great hope
of the human race. We have "abid
ing faith in them and trust in their
development implicitly.
Of course, it is not given to the
eyes of youth to see with the wisdom
of age but many older people would
give all the wealth that they have
accumulated to possess the fine spirit
of youth, facing the world as a brave
adventure and resolutely determined
to make their contribution to the up
building and consolidation of what
we call civilization.
THE PIGSKIN PRE-EMINENT
On Friday of this week we cele
brate the first day of Autumn. Most
of us hope that nature will take
note of the beginning of the season
and regulate the weather according
ly.
The hot days of summer will be
gradually replaced by the cool, crisp
weather of fatfl. There will be hunt
ing, harvesting and moon-lit nights,
but, most of all, for the average
-American the season will be marked
by flying pigskins and thousands of
alumni rooting for the eleven of the
old Alma Mater.
Baseball will fade with the World
Series, political purges wftl be for
gotten and even election campiagns
will be set aside on week-ends while
our attention is centered upon the
gridirons of the nation. Even the
strife in Europe, the fighting in
Spain and the incident in the. Far
East will be banished, at least for a
few hours, by millions of football en
thusiasts.
"GOING PLACES" IN THE
AIR.
Early this month, seventeen naval
flying planes completed a non-stop
flight from San-Diego, California, to
Honolulu, Hawaii, a distanct of 2,
570 miles, in seventeen hours and
twenty-one minutes.
So far as we knew, the flight was
a routine transfer in the Navy, and
attracted very little attention in the
United States. It should convince
anyone that the flying age is at
fcand.\
The progress of aviation in the
United States and throughout the
world has been amazing. No one be
lieves today that the future will not
show continued improvement. With
highly efficient engines and the ex
perience of past construction, there
seems to be^no limit to the size of
airplanes. The 50 ton flying boat
of today will be nothing in compari
son with the airships of the future.
Man has invaded a -new element and
h. i. "going phew."
