The Seattle Star reflects on the shift from strict paternal authority to reasoning guidance. It argues fathers are busier in 1921, risking neglect of sons, and promotes Father and Son Week to foster confidence and shared wisdom, suggesting making every week Father and Son Week.
The Star argues bread prices stay high due to diminished demand but will fall when prices trigger increased demand. It cautions that Japanese militarists influence Prince Tokugawa, complicating Sino Japanese relations and urging an open door approach before naval cuts. A democracy must not overlook pedestrian safety.
Prince Tokugawa head of the Japanese delegation to the disarmament conference said after arriving in the Americas that he hopes Sino Japanese questions will be kept out of discussions. He faces the task of navigating a conference likely to address those topics.
The speaker traces the growth of high schools from 600 in 1870 to 12 951 today, noting one new school daily and 81 035 teachers funded by taxes. He recalls earlier academy roots, contrasts old values with modern access, and cites two million students enrolling when high schools opened weeks earlier. Education comes high but we must have it.
Rep Sinnott comments on land office proposals in the same state. He likens his view of Rep Baker to the cross cut lawyer in wartime Oregon woods. He notes challenges when timing and progress lag, subtly referencing bootlegger era themes.
J B Chapman M D defends churches against Gertrude Dean of Grand Rapids who insulted Seattle by claiming humane society work is more vital. He cites Christian mission and philanthropy, arguing churches uplift society and should not be denigrated.
Co W Gray questions a 1.53 per day living cost for a family of five as stated by the Four L's and notes Aberdeen land high water and a major log jam. He asks for clearer statistics on daily food provisions and the logging camp profits behind the figure.
The writer cites Alice Meyers disapproval of vivisection and questions links to annual amusement slaughter of wild creatures, barnyard pets, and slaughterhouse horrors. It argues the core is the belief that animals lack rights owed by humans and questions accountability for those wrongs.
Thomas Byron Mac Mahon argues for restoring the name Tacoma to the mountain, asserting it is the original Indian designation and should replace Rainier. He notes Rainier’s link to a deceased English admiral and a long extinct beverage, urging the public to adopt Tacoma officially with strong support.
L. M. Clarke argues against sport killing, saying city hunters harm wildlife and degrade morality. He cites Christian principle, legal precedent, and calls for humane conduct toward animals as a stand against barbarity and hypocrisy.
