"I remember some time ago hav.n< t > sentence a young man to the peni tentiary for stealing an automobile. After the sentence lie came to me and told me that lie had been sentenced under a name that was not his own, it ltd that he had done this to keep his old mother in California from know ing the disgrace ol her son. and to k ;ep the sorrow from coming into her life." He said that this boy writes to y1u*r regularly, and he pictured the old mother back in the old home, fit ting before the fire with her Bible, praying that her boy might be saved from the pitfalls that beset him. "Do yuu mean to tell me that he is a bad boy? No. the trouble is that some one did not put his arm around that young ttiiow and point him to the right road. Mnuy a boy starts out lite on high, and when he turns the dangerous cuvV he is going so tast that he is d.'rn< ;i before he -can straighten out.' .wonting, the judge said itt part: ? i in' of the many reasons that I r, ... .. chosen this subject for you to ?iav, and invited the bad boys as our . ? that among the many boys j ,. i.a I M-aicinee to prison tf ,s .. ;,;n'.os: nvai-iablv said that iia'i o?:'\ .-lopped and taken , ? ?; \ i?i. not i c going thai , t i , . ,i ? i , 1 t ? t ? living vv 1 1 n j j| ?

One of the 'most significant indexes to the changes that the World War brought is to be seen in the Kiel Canal case under consideration by the world court at The Hague. Under clauses of the treaty of Versailles the 'action was brought to keep the waterway open to all ships of nations with which Germany is at peace even when they carry war materials. A bulletin just issued .from the Washington, I). C., headquarters of the national geographical society deals with this canal which in effect more than doubled the strength of the German- navy, and which pre-war Germany managed as she chose. "It was really" by removing the mud and stones from the bed of the Kiel Canal ? or the Kaiser Wilhel/n Kanal, to give it its rightful name ? that the 'German empire dug its way into its cherished welt politik and appeared lis a great world power," say* the bulletin. "Prussia had the j v sion of this most important water- | before the late empire or any (r n.,' thai could be considered a j modern German political entity ex isted.

People were be in# whipped, And even lynched, in Oklahoma before the Klari . was ever heard of. It might be shown : if statistics were available, that there I has been less of that sort of thing since the Klan was organized than before. , At any rate, lawless acts of the kind complained of in a few commu nities did not justify the governor in placing the whole state under martial law, and it is not surprising that the leading men of the state, including those openly opposed to the Klan, are denouncing the governor's action. The governor has done a much more out rageous thing wan he has charged the Klan with doing. The governor had Rublic sentiment on his side when he set out to sup press lawlessness in his state, and he would have had cordial and united support in that undertaking. Hut he has turned out to be the chief law breaker of his state, and his doom is sealed. He may not be impeached, but he has become a byword and n hissing among good citizcns, and ho will soon drop back into obscurity. The public lost interest ih Gover nor Walton's fight on the Klan as soon as the officials of the organiza tion announced that they had records to show that the governor himself had applied for membership and had been denied admittance by his own local Klan because the members knew him and did not want him among them.? ?
