Prize-Fight Pictures

THE action taken by many cities in the United States and throughout the world in prohibiting the exhibition of pictures of the recent prize-fight is to be strongly commended. The youth of the present day do not need education in these matters. There can not possibly be in these exhibitions one redeeming quality. The whole influence makes for the cultivation of wrong ideals and the corruption of the morals. It is to be hoped, as has been expressed by many, that the recent prize-fight will be the last brutal exhibition of this sort which shall be witnessed in the civilized world. Such exhibitions of physical, and we might add brute, force, do not make for the good of the human family, from whatever standpoint they may be regarded.
