It is claimed on authority, gor'd enough to be worth considering, that Chi car police.r.€:i, receiving no pay from the city government, ore be. supported by contributions from the speak ries, which they permit to flourish. It is said that v. emen, there can be no law and order ir. that without the speakeasies, there car.

The speakeasies are necessary to protc. tion of the citizens of Chicago, as as hie police emselves. Of course, we may say tiiat since we live in Chicago, such a situation cs cor era us. But it does. It is symptc at are all to prevalent throughout the whole nation.

I mean the cage of bone that keeps trouble away from your brain.

Your brain is a physical entity. Your mind is you. It is entitled to freedom. It should be allowed to wander wherever it will, absolutely unconfined and untrammeled by prejudice, bias or superstition. I think parents should stress this in their conversations with their children.

Children must be taught of course, but after they have learned the essentials of education, they ought to be taught to teach themselves, and keep their minds as to their exits and their entrances, Ignorant people are little affected by new ideas because they have from the beginning been afraid of new ideas. They look upon people who speak a foreign tongue as foolish and think their speech must be an unmeaning jargon. They are filled with superstitions of all sorts, which have a stronger hold on their minds than anything which can be taught them by more intelligent people. Moreover, educated people, some of them highly educated, often have caged minds, which keep them from trying to understand the world about them and the people in it. It has always been nations with caged minds that have been easily led into wars.

The terrible religious persecutions of the past have been due to the same confinement of thought. And the racial and religious prejudice that still exists today is the result of the same sort of mental narrowness. If your mind is in a cage, get it out. Look on all sides of all questions before you make any decisions. Be open-minded, receptive to new ideas if they strike you as useful and intelligent.

Shake off all prejudice and learn to think and to see clearly. Today there is no chance for the mental shut-in. He harks back to the dark ages. And we at least hope that we have prrcressed a long, long way since and a long long way since the men with the caged minds used to burn witches in Salem and make life miserable for all those who profei-ed and practiced a religion, which differed from their own. There are too many mental cages in existence today.

If you have one of them, break the bars. You will not know what life is worth, or how to get the most out of it until you are completely beyond the bars of your mental rage (Copyright, 1932.
