MIDSUMMER MADNESS - nri 1 1 mn iimii 1 1 1 b ipii i ii tv North Platte, Nebr. Aug. 3. 1921 Editor of "Tho Tribune:" ' Dear sir; I have been much plensed with many of your editorials. Thoy have almost always been thoughtful, and especially freo from tho prevail ing passion fdf rocking tho boat at tlmoa when llfb streams lactam to flow moBt turbulent. I nm therefore both surprised and conccarned over your first editorial In Tuesdays Isbuo. Your readers have Lovery right toeol .you undorgtgQtjypJ senouanea 01 mo requesi you maue. Yet I am inclined to boliov'e It was m editorial of flrat thought, prompted by u disgust at peoples indifforenco to tho. calls of sentiment. And I fool on second thought you too will realize that you mado a public and a direct call for boys to break tho lawo of our land, and TO DO SO WITH OBVIOUS VIOLENCE, when you urgo them to mix In a crowd of people mado up of nil kinds and degrees of temporment and "treat them rough" if thoy ne- gloct to act in manners not thought to bo proper for citizens. I nm among very largo groupa of Amorlcan cltlzons, who feel a good doal of fovor of sontlmont when see ing crowdB without compulsion re spond to our flag or stand when our untlonal boiiks nro sung, but wo would bo farthorest from inciting a mob to seo that theso obsorvencca woro performed. I am auro you must bo actunted by a real belief (and wo respect any ones actual opinions) that tho standing When tho band plays The Star Spang, led Bannor "constitutes tho" acid test of anyonca patriotism and good citl zcnshlp, for tho proof is right at hand since novor wo aro euro have you pub llcly called upon groups of prIvaNto citizens to go about In crowds in our community and "treat rough" or hand lo In any way thoy see fit, thoso who aro not paying their taxes In times too of hor trrouteat financial need: for carrying in Uquod, for stealing from disabled Boldtors, or for trnfficlng in th virtues of aur girls. You have loft thoso minor mat ;ttrs to wore . elderly, and dell borate enro of government proce-ses Naturally when tho matter of stand ing up or bearing tho head ect. alono arouses your feelings to feel justified in setting aBido law and ordor1, wo must'feol you must have been over wrought to the point of some excuse. But wouldn't it bo bettor for you to dovoto your future to enacting a law to make It a felony to neglect to stand at such times. Our fathers neglected such a law, possibly because they thought a sentiment observed under compulsion lost most of Its virtue and all of ; its boauty; possibly becauso many ijruly patriotic and sentimental cltlzons craved for tho freedom of oxercislng many many beautiful ob servances without duress. ,In trls sense I believe your tdltort al does a real Injury to citizens who attend concerts, for oven now a wit ness passing and seeing tho people standing while national airs aro being played will ravo no way of knowing whether they do it out of the enthusi asm of patriotic fervor, or from a cheap senso of fear of being troubled or annoyed. ObvlouBly it' not; only takes the Individuality out of all those observances but It takes away tho beauty and the joy of doing so. I believo also that you do tho local legion a wdong in nssuming that thoy In any case, prefer a disorderly state of anarchy In our community, or rath- or than nn orderly state conforming to law, even tho many things happen,, as they do with all of us, of which wo do not approve. " It is in tho confines of every Ameri can citizen, of rights to work? for any change in laws they think forthe best interests of their country, .'but not oven a 50 per cent Amorlcan can flout or disregard the laws we have. Certainly wo cannot teach bthers'a respect for symbols of our country whllo showing thel most oxtremo dis respect to her laws and institutions. And wo feel tho local members-of the Legion whom we ' know best, v$uld feel quite tho same about it. 1 Respectfully, Mary II. Axtoll. :o::- FOR RENT. Forty acres of hay land east of town. 0. H.
