PEACE, TOO, TAKES ITS TOLL
Society Don Not by Any Muni Neod
War to Force Youth to'
Destruction,
With attempts’ at sulclds by three
children In one day. New York Is re-
tilnded forcibly of the fact that youth
either assholes burdens that ought not
to bo forced upon It or Is poorly
equipped to meet the problems of life,
observes the New York World. When
boys and girls seek death as the one
remedy for disappointment, grief or
anxiety, we may uot bo surprised to
find despair and fatalism In ths
nursery.
A good many people ta America pro
fess to bo shockod because In Europe
lads of elghtoen or even less have
been summoned to the colors. Yet It
Is evident that there are reaponalbllt-
tiea arising from the strifes of peace
that are hardly less deadly than those
' encountered In war.
In most cases boys do not bavo to be
driven to battle. When they are en
tirely normal they aro Ignorantly
eager for the experience. In our so
cial, educational and industrial sys-
tem we are pushing children beyond
their strength, without discipline and
knowledge, we are putting them Into
the trenches as truly a* are the war
lords.

maker may count on U per cent or

whon.lt Is considered that the gun
