I ALONG THE SOUTH FORK,
i ,
s
' J At this time of year, it is worth while to drive through Ogden
ivalley and along South Fork. Ogden valley is beautiful in its coat
L ing of green. Shut out from the rest of the world by great moun
' "tains, the valley is made up of long stretches of undulating farm
jj 'land, with rolling hills as a margin leading back to the rugged Wa
ll satch range.
I , In the South Fork, the stream has its riffles and gurgles and
I -murmurs as does a mountain brook. The mighty mountains are cov
J .ered with green underbrush, with here and there an area of sagc
n Jbrush and farther away the pines that maintain a vertical position
tj on the sharpest declivities.
3 Bluebells and Indian reds grow by the roadside, and tiny flow
I ,ers that seem too delicate for out of doors come down to the high
fj S ;way to welcome the traveler. The scgo lily, Utah's favorite, beckons
tj to the traveler.
f : - Song birds flit from tree to tree, and occasionally give a call
;! I 'of dulcet notes.
! j ' Cattle are to be seen grazing high upon the canyon sides, and
Ii 3 "down in the spots where the cliffs separate and meadows-nestle, the
i j "industrious farmer is cutting hay.
i S Americans travel to Europe to sec the works of art, and the
j 1 paintings of master hands draw unstinted praise. The admirers re
J jturn filled with the consciousness of having looked upon master
i Jj r-pieces. But no one who lias crossed the seas, in search of art has
? seen in gallery anything so sublime and wonderful as Nature's paint-
"ings in the gorges and valleys to the east of Ogden.
; UNITED STATES HAS 105,000,000.
Our great United States has a population of 105,000,000.
i "When men who now are of middle age were boys this country
LWl Vas boasting of 38,000,000.
1 ; In the statement given out by the chief statstician of the census
H' J 'bureau there is a note of explanation to the effect that the United
j States, by reason of reduced immigration, the war and other causes,
Lm s has failed to maintain the ratio of increase of other decades. Wc
ft j are growing at a rate fast enough to meet the demands of our in-
H, dustrial and economic life, and, as to numerical power, we are large
H-.j enough for all emergencies.
HjM This country had 92,000,000 people ten years ago. To increase
N 13,000,000 in that time is an expansion in population quite satisfying.
LWfi It 'is equivalent to adding two or three of the smaller countries of
Hfc Europe.
America now is so large as to cease to induce more millions to
make this their home. Our greatest concern from now on should be
not numbers but contentment. It would be preferable to have 105,
3 000 000 happy people than 200,000,000 slaves to misery and wretch
3 edn'ess It would be better to have 105,000,000 well housed and cared
b for Americans than to be a China of 300,000,000 distressed men,
women and children.
America is the world's mightiest nation in men, in machinery,
s in resources. .
' With 105,000,000 people, the United States should cease to bid
5 for more inhabitants and simply plan to take of the-natural growth
u in population.
J! CLOSING THE DOOR TO PLUTOCRACY.
3 "When the scandal over the Wood and Lowden campaign funds
a brought out a protest from all directions, condemning the naming
of candidates by the use of large sums of money, the question arose :
If Wood was disgraced by trying to buy the nomination, would
a large campaign fund with which to elect the nominee be other than
a variation of the Wood scandal? Senator Harding seems to have
discovered the logical sequence, as he yesterday served notice that
his campaign committee would accept no contributions in larger
sums than $1000 from any one individual.
LL There have been national campaigns in which money was spent
by the millions, and in a must questionable manner.
Not only should the contributions be limited to $1000, but the
HL total amount expended, directly and indirectly, should be kept with-
f in the bounds of the legitimate.
Hi Our presidents should go into office without the least taint of
having been placed in the exalted position by the influence of the
, r almighty dollar.
I When wealth, instead of manhood, determines who shall be pres-
j Ident, the very foundations of our republic are being brought under
Bi & breaking strain.
Any party marked with the dollar, and basing success on the
H corrupting power of money, should be rebuked by being destroyed.
j FATHER AND SON.
1 ' Arrangements are being made for a father-and-son outing on the
"big meadows" of South Fork, the event to extend over a period
of three dayB, beginning July 22 and ending with an old-time cele-
1 bration on July 24.
H A little city of tents is to be created, where the fathers and sons
H will enjoy a communion under the stars and out in the wildwood
where the higher thoughts find expression.
H ThiB outing is being managed by earnest workers who are vol-
H i unteering their time in order to start a movement which promises
LLW i to bring to many homes that harmony of purpose which is to be
Hl found in a close companionship of the boy and his father.
H J It is our understanding that this kind of an outing is something
H unusual, but, whether old or new, it should be encouraged because
H much of good may como out of the 'gathering. The diversion should
H bo made an annual affair.
SENATOR REED OF MISSOURI.
H ) At a meeting of the Democratic national committee in San Fran-
H cisco plans will be made to keep Senator Reed of Missouri out of
H the convention which opens on next iVIonday.
H ( Senator Reed has no "place in any American convention. He was
H against every measure .proposed during the war to strengthen the
H fighting power of the United States. His sympathies obviously were
H with the enemies of this country. He should go overseas, buy a castle
Hj and there live out hi6 hatred for free institutions.
H .The senator is a gifted orator, a man of brilliant mind, but his
H soul has become calloused. His genius has been perverted and he
H should retire from public view.

'HOME LOAN BANKS .WILL END
HOUSE SHORTAGE, CALDER SAYS
By Edwin D. Rider.
N. E. A. Staff Writer.
"Congress will do nothing to help
solvo the housing problem until the
people of. the country drive it home
to their representatives .it Washington
that the housing shortage is an In
creasingly menacing condition. Con
gress right now doesn't know it. And
it won't act until the people force it!
to."
This is the statement of Senator
Calder of New York, who has a bill
before the senate providing for the es
tablishing of a home loap bank sys
tem, similar to the federal reserve
banking system.
Briefly the Calder plan is as fol
lows: j
The home loan banking system, pro-
vldlng governmental machinery for fi-i
nancing the building of houses, will
follow in the main outline the federal'
reservo districts. All home loan asso-j
ciatlons would become members of the
district home loan bank. They would
place first real estate-mortgages in the
bank and miy obtain loans up to 60 per
cont of the mortgage total at 6 per
cent. Senator Calder says the value
of real estate mortgages is more than
two billion dollars and that thus the
homo loan system would provide a
fund of one billion and a half for the
financing of a big homo building drive.
"I think such a system would go far
towards solving the serious housing
shortage," says Senator Calder, "but
I don't look for any action from con
gress. At least I have been unable to
get any hope."
Calder has another bill dealing with
the housing question a measure to
lexompt the income from real mort
gages up to $-10,000 from federal in
come taxes. The bill i3 designed to
I bring capital back into the building
industry.
"The only objection made to this is
that it is bad to create any more ex
empted securities," said Calder, "but
It is necessary because capital won't
build houses at the present interest
rates with heavy income taxes hang
ing over them. Too many privileged
fields, "We could solve It by repealing
our usury laws, but that Is far worse."
Calder thinks his home loan bank
ing system will greatly aid by provid
ing governmental agencies for the H
I nancing of home building but that
there isn't a chance for the measure
unloss the people of the country get
busy at once and let congress know
they want action now on the housing
shortage. Only then will the Wash
ington government act.

You cannot jail an idea. You can
not put handcuffs on a thought. You
cannot send a conviction to the elec
tric chair.
- You can send a man with an idea
to Jail, but, like Paul, he can say:
"I am an ambassador in bonds." There
may be chains on his wrists, but there
are no chains on his imperial splrlL
You may put handcuffs on the man
with a thought, but you have not fet
tered his thinking. His mental proc
esses go on. and his mind mounts and
defies your prison.
You may send a man with a great
conviction to the gallows, but his Ideal
eludes you and his great soul goes
marching on.
Therefore It is foolish to fight Ideas
with force. It Is the height of folly for
governments to assume that they can
keep people from thinking by a show
of tho military.
The only thing that will kill an idea
is a better Idea. You must do more
than shoot bullets at people who thinl?.
You must load your gun with gray
matter. Revolutions must be han-

GRIEF EVERYWHERE.
I'm in a land enchanting, where
springtime always dwells, and birds
are gallavantlng around me, wearing
bells. Here no one ever freezes, ho
sunstroke threatns mo, and here the
soothing breezes come sighing from
the sea. It's like a dream of Eden,
one flower-bespangled lawn, i a land to
rest and read in, and bid all woe be
gone. Here we should all be joyous,
where tranquil springtime lives, where
nothing can annoy us n all that na
ture gives. Yet here men dig up Bor
row, and if no grief they own, they go
around and borrow some woe o'er
which Co groan. This moaning I was
sitting beneath some tropic trees; a
stranger with his knitting came up to
sharo the breeze I said to him, "O
stranger, this la a wondrous day, and
thoughts of grief and danger se"em
worlds and worlds away!" He viewed
tho distant steeples, the San Diego
towers, and sighed, "The yellow peo
pies have spoiled thiB land of ours!"
And then he raged and rumbled, and
voiced his doubts and fears, he rant
ed and he grumbled, and shed a quart
of tears. And all through his repin
died with something more dynamic
than gunpowder.
It Is not bad for men to think. It is
dangerous for them not to do so. It Is
the ability to produco Ideas which lifts
man to the top of creation. A society
made up of people who do not think
Is headed for the jungle.
A nation whose people follow tradi
tions, whose citizens are dominated by
partisanship, whoso power is physical
and not mental, whose laws depend for
their authority on a standing army
and not on the sense of right In tho
hearts of the people, Is a nation sched
uled for the cemetery.
people must think. And yet is
thought enough? Are Ideas all that
people need? Criminals have plenty
of Ideas. Because a man has an Idea,
does that Invest him with a god-given
right to run loose and promote his
Idea? laeas must be underwritten,
and the only thing that can do it is
a right life.
If a man's heart is right, you can
take chances on his head; but If his
heart is full of hate, beware of his
Ideas, "For as a man thlnketh In his

GERMAN CATHOLICS RAP 1
; NEW RELIGION COURSES 1
BERLIN, June 26. Catholic news- I
papers are wutching with growing
. concern a movement to introduce a (fl
j new system of religious Instruction
in German schools. Heretofore such
I instruction has been based on the old il
J and new testaments. M
j The new plan, which was evolved H
by teachers of Melnlngen and recent-. IH
! ly endorsed by the teachers' assocla- H
tion of Thurlnigac where Protestants M
are In the majority, would do away H
with Bible study. Instead, children IH
during their first four years in school lH
j would be instructed In German falr.v H
tales and myths, Robinson Crusoe and H
I the history of the child Jesus. In the jB
j last four 3rears the Instruction would f H
have to do with tho worship of God WM
by ancient peoples, the life and teach- HI
j ings of Jesus, and tho worship of God WE
In Germany. More and more, the H
Thurlngia teachers agreed, German H
! myth3 and poetry should replace in I
tho schools the old testament. I
j "By no stretch of the Imagination," F
I comments Germanla, the organ of the I
Center (Catholic) party, "can this be
called religious instruction. It is 3
thoroughly in accord with the well- R'
known tendencies of radical teachers.
Catholics must follow this movement
! with close attention, for It threatens J
to invade tholr own schools." Jl
