A stirring editorial on the Tulsa
riots will appear in the NATION for
June 15, and will be followed by re-
ports from the scene by a special
correspondent for THE NATION.
THE NATION of June 15 will also
carry an open letter by Robert T. Ker-
lin to Governor McRae of Arkansas.
Mr. Kerlin, who is a southerner by
birth and a member of the raculty of
a Virginia military academy, makes
an impressive plea for pardon for the
Negroes of Phillips county. He
quotes Magna Charta, t:ie Federal
Constitution, and the Christian Bible
as all forbidding the execution of
those Negroes, and presents extracts
from the evidence of the case which
testify to forced confessions.
THE NATION publishes in nearly
every issue some material on race
questions. The accounts rrom Tulsa
will appear in the issue tor June 22,
published Friday, June It.
AT THE ALDRIDGE
Saturday's feature, "The Eyes of
Youth," was a picture worth seeing.
Clara Kimball Young, the heroine,
with the aid of a Hindu's crystal,
gazed into the future five years a-
head. By sacrificing herseir to duty
and devoting her life to her family
she saw herself a withered wreck
discharged fro mher job as being too
old-fashioned and her lover changing
his affections to her charming young-
er sister.
The way of Ambition found her at
the end of five years a star in the
operatic world but she had yielded
youth, virtue and part of her beauty
as pay. Her brother kills her betray-
er and teacher just before she awakes
from the nightmare.
Her father begs her to wed wealth
and once more she is shown by the
Hindu seer into the future. She sees
her husband buying another woman's
love and plotting her own downfall.
She finally is cast out and is a broken
haggard creature.
When she awake this time she tells
her father she will choose love and
asks him to look through the eyes of
Youth and let her brother take his
place in the firm and all will be well.
When a person loses the faculty
of seeing with the eyes of Youth, he
is a fit subject for Dr. Osier. So many
people who have frolicked and had
innocent pleasures when young just
as soon as their eyes dim a bit and
the rheumatism takes the joy out of-
raoving about, decide at once that all
young people are awful sinners and
start harping about eveyrthing that
brings any enjoyment. Think back
a few yjears, look through the eyes
of youth and let youth have its day.
"The Tiger's Coat" showed how
love is stronger than pride of race,
and though the proud Caucasian
turned away from the beautiful dark-
skinned girl, he was miserable every
moment until he found her and claim-
ed her.
"Twas only a face on a canvas
But the painter with mystic art
Put a look in the eyes of the maiden
That went straight to my lonely heart,
And I've traveled the whole world
over
oFr a glimpse of that lovely face,
And I'll claim my own when I find her
In spite of her creed or her race.
