In one of the city's eating places the other day was witnessed a par able of life. A father and mother brought their small boy. alittle fellow of not more than four summers, perhaps, to the table to have dinner and sat them selves down to have a quiet time of it. The little fellow was Riven a seat adjacent to his mother. He was somewhat peeved about the geogra phy of his seat. He wanted to be by his father and let the fact be knrwn. His mother was determined but not n ore to than the small child who finally, young as it was, got down, fathered his chair up and placed It on the opposite side of the table, right by his father's chair, arter its lusty lcnirs had (pressed rather distinctly its disapproval ot its mother's insistence. The couple were apparently em barrassed not mer ly by raou of the child's tremendous vocal rhap. sodies. but because also its loud cries attracted the attention of everybody in the dinincroom and everybody had been quick to discern the cause of the boy s outburst of temper. Such a little reflection would have quieted somewhat the embarrass, ments of the youns parents. If they at all observent of things outside of their own hous-hcld they must have discovered that what their young son was doing in the restau rant that day, others older than he, are doing on every side and in al most all the homes of all the com munities. And then out In society, among the yet more mature folks, the same lack of obedience to the conventions Is discernable. The young men and the young maidens of these times Judicata hat they desire to do. nnd their parents heat a retieat. Formerly, if there had been expressed lu 'he form of a lash with a hlikory sapling or some other Instruments equally as effective. And older people of today whose forebears of their age. had respect for the law and customs, for the tiaditions and the conventions, Ret mit-hiv neeved when they are told that society has erected barriers be-1 tween them and some things iney want to do. In many caseB. they re. fuse to respect the authority of the laws and, like the little child, pick themselves up and go across to the other side 0f the table, transgress the edicts of. society, seek to have their own way and hold contemp. tible nnv agency that would hold them back. For the State to Fay to then that they must desist from this and from that Is for them to shout their protests against invasion of their personal rights nnd liberties. They are Just as determined to have their wav about these things as the four-year-old boy was determined that he would sit at the tabic at ex actly the tight point of the compass which he chose there tr nowhere. And this is largely accountable for the present day disorders and domestic distresses. We wonder what has brome of the Influence of the home In the formation of good citizens and stalwart characters. It is nothing to be marvelling at. The rnfluence of the home goes out when the fathers and mothers allow their throne to be usurped, and with that gone, the State finds its If with both hands full to compel obedience from those who never knew it In the households of their fathers and mothers. Ferhnps. some of the rig. or in home discipline that the par ents of a generation or so auo in voked In their duties wouldcover a multitude of the overt sins of this age. the particular transgressions of vouthful inadvertence to the simple jaws of decency and dignity ami the more mature and deliberate refusal of men to pay respect to the laws of their country.

For the first time in six years, Psul Williams, a young white man who lives with his mother on Southern avenue, had a haricut and a shave Tuesday after noon, after he had been forcibly drag ged from a room which he had not left since 11)16, by Officer George Smith. Williams, who has been demented for a number of years, was truly a wild looking creature when he was ex tracted from his room. The haircut and shave were ad ministered at McPherson's barbershop at the instance of City Health Offi cer C. B. Williams, and the charge in the man's appearance is describ ed as startling. Officer Smith has been instructed to take him for a daily stroll until he is back to normal. Williams made no effort to risist the officer after he was taken from his room.
