Show Little EirMao Home A. week ago we clipped a splendid editorial under tho above caption irom an Ogdcn contemporary contem-porary apd thought, of course, all tho young girls would read it and carry out its injunction. There aro two young girls who evidently did not read that article, however, how-ever, or else they failed to apprehend appre-hend its import, for a few nights ago we noticed them standing stand-ing out in front of ouo of tho daueo halls in tho north end of this county, looking wistfully wist-fully at tho bright lights within with-in and undoubtedly, debating the question as to whether or dot they should go in. Wo don't know who they wcro, but wo do know thoy were girls of tender years, girls who never should attend a pub-lie pub-lie danco unless chaperoned by their mother or some maturo person. per-son. Thoy were just tho kind of girls tho moral proiligato is looking look-ing for and generally tho right ago to fall into tho power of that class of individuals. Little girls, go homo and stay there. If you must go to tho dance, ask your mother to aecom-pany aecom-pany you if a responsible and absolute ab-solute trustworthy young man cannot bo induced to bo your escort, es-cort, but never go alone. Dancing Danc-ing iii itself is harmless enough and a very pleasant pastime, but at tho public danco all kinds of characters congregate, oven to tho wolf in sheep's clothing, and it is usually tho sauve, gonial young man who is so solicituous of your comfort aud happiness that is the wolf waiting to entrap you. After he gets you in his power all his gentility vanishes and you arc made to suffer. If you aro at homo you escape oven tho appear-anco appear-anco of. ovil and if you have your mother with you, you aro fortified against temptation. Don't stund on tho street, little girl, looking at tho bright lights. Go homo whore you can make your own room rosploudout nnd fcol that you aro within sacred precincts pre-cincts where sin and temptation huvo not tho slightest powor to envelop you. Q |
