And they are so radically differ- ent because in the 'home they have been given more privileges. They have more freedom, more luxuries. They work less and spend more. They are, therefore, more selfish, more inde- pendent, less respectful, and less polite. Too they are more frank. They pull down the shades on nothing." Such was the opinion of Thomas Arkle Clark, dean of men at the Uni- versity of Illinois, educator; author and lecturer, who spoke Thursday to 6,000 Kiwanians in a convention ses- sion in Seattle, Wash. The 'cause of the revolt, Dr. Clark, who is well known on the north shore, pointed out, has been laid to everything from war to the Volstead Act. 3 "Whatever habits you have, good or bad, smoking, going to church, swear- ing, taking an occasional stimulant, all these, if you will recall, you picked up before you were 18 years old, and still within the influences of the home," he reminded the Kiwanians. "If the young people are so different it is because of the economic and scientific changes in the home. Nobody is at home anymore. Father and mother are riding, at the movies, or their clubs. The children likewise. "Companions, the church, the schools, and the home influence our characters. But the most potent of all these is the home. Courtesy, ideals, truth, honesty-- all these have their foundation in the home. We learn by precept and ex- ample. Every parent should. remem- ber this because a child's character is pretty completely determined by the age of fifteen. "What our youth are will depend very largely upon the example which is set for them in the home," warned Dr. Clark, Former Wilmette Girl to Wed in Evanston June 23 Miss Nellie Brown and Frederick J. Bageman, will be married at high noon tomorrow in St. Luke's chapel, Evans: ton, by the Rev. George Craig Stewart.

Miss Eloise Brown, sister of the bride, will be her only attendant. Har- old Moos of Evanston will be the best man, and the ushers will be Fred Van- dercook of Evanston and Donald Arz nold of Minneapolis, Minn. After a two week's. motor trip, Mr, Bageman and his bride will be at home after July' 16, at 815 Judson avenue, Evanston. Isabel Richardson Molter of Wil- mette, soprano and a soloist this spring with the Music Festival in Evanston, sang a group of MacDowell composi- tions Thursday at the meeting of the Evanston MacDowell society.
