If these facts were true then,

Frank P. Clarkson, manager Of the
Ida Grove high school foot ball team,
has taken it upon himself, after So
called careful and unprecedented study
Of the high school teams OF the state"
to pick an all-star team. On this elev-
ell Clarkson has placed four Ida Grove
players, four East Des Moines players
and three from Sioux City. No con-
sideration has beer given men on
teams east of Des Molnes. Clarkson's
state" comprises Ida Grove Sioux
City, Council Bluffs and Des Moines.
There are certain players on the Grin
nell, Dubuque and Marshalltown
teams who have just claim to places
on such team. While Clarkson's Sc
lection establishes absolutely nothing
he showed foolishness in getting into
print with such q choice which evtnced
such lack Of information on the sub
ject. One example Of how far Clark
sons guess went wrong Is clearly
shown in his selection of q full back.
He placed Freburg, Of East Des Moines,
in the position. According to such
judges as Coach Chalmers, OF Iowa
City, Coach Warner Of Capital Park,
Des Moines, and Coach Clyde Williams
Of Marshalltown, Kirk, flll-back for
Marshalltown, had no equal on any
high school team In the state. All OF
these men saw hirn play and all a
greed he compared favorably with
most of the college men Of the state
playing the same position. Clarkson
should get into the game and scan the
map of the state, whose eastern boun-
Diary is the Mississippi river and not a
line drawn north and south thru Des
Moines.
The freshman eligibility rule pro-
posed by the Big Nine Conference Is
liable to be lost at the spring meet
ing when a two-trirds vote is neces-
sary for it to become effective. Iowa,
Minnesota, and Michigan have lined up
against it. The Minnesota and Michi-
gan schools have great influence and
it is not likely that the rule will go
thru without their sanction.

more females than males; among tho
Indians a few more males than fe-
males. The marked excess OF maies
among whites and Mongolians Is
doubtless due to the influence OF I'M
migration.
Incredible Native Chinese Males.
Among the Chinese said to have been
born in the United States. nearly three
fourths are male, an incredible pro-
portion, which Is probably due to the
false return of several thousand immi-
grant Chinese as native in the effort 10
elude the provisions of the exclusion
laws.
At each OF the last six censuses there
has been an excess Of males among ma
tive white population. ranging, at
each census except that of 1870, from
one-duarter to three-quarters of mil
lion. These figures are probably swol-
len by an indeterminate amount as a
result of the return of a certain num-
Der of foreign born as native.
In 1900, among the 13,367,147 persons
attending school, 400 in each 1000 were
male and sol female; in 1890, in the
same class, $40 per 1000 were male and
400 female.
Among the whites attending school
there Is a slight excess of males,
among the Indians and Mongolians,
very marked excess of males. The
slight excess OF females in the total
population reported in 1900 as attend
ing school is due to a very decided
excess Of females among the negro
school attendants.
Increasing Proportion Of Girls.
In all races and in all parts of the
/ country there has been decided In
crease since 1890 in the proportion OF
females among persons attending
school. This increase Is due mainly to
the increase in the proportion Of young
women among persons at least 1b
years of age attending school, the In
| crease at this age period being nearly
five times as great as at any other
and more than three times as great
as the average increase for all ages.
Death Rate Higher for Males.
The death rate Of males In the reg
istration area of the United States In
1900 was 1910 per 1000. and that of fe-
males 1876 per 1000, the former having
death rate higher by about one-sev-
enth that the latter. In the S46 regis
tration cities the death rate of males
was 200 and that Of females 17.2 per
1000, the male rate exceeding the fe-
males 17.2 per 1000. the male rate ex-
ceeding the female by one-sixth. In
the rest Of the registration area the
male death rate was 1873 and that of
females $50 per 1000, the male rate
exceeding the female by one-nineteenth.
The difference in the death rate of
the sexes is apparently least between
the ages Of s to IA and greatest at the
youngest and Oldest ages.
Life tables for Massachusetts. Eng
land. Prussia, and Norway confirm
these conclusions and make them pre-
cise They indicate that male child
rem under years of age have uniform
" higher death rate than female
children.
According to all the life tables. the
death rate of women between 20 and
80 years years of age. at which ages
probably four-f1fths Of the childbirths
occur, was less than that Of males.
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1904-12-10

females than males. In the 1851 cities,
each having in 1900 at least $500 in
habitnts, there were 201,959 more fe-
males and the enormous number Of
standing the many western cities
which contained more males than fe-
males and the enormous number Of
foreign born In the country, flve-nlnths
Of them male and a large proportion OF
them living in the cities.
This tendency of American cities to
develop population having majority
of females had increased since lSvo
when, in the 1890 cities. each having
at least $500 inhabitants, there were
6.929 more males than females.
While the excess of 1929 males IN
American cities in 1890 became an ex-
cess of 210,959 females in American
cities In 1900, the excess Of 1,519,6b9
males In country districts In 1890 be-
came an excess Of 1,S40,2S0 males In
1900.
Or expressing the facts IN ratios, OF
each 1000 inhabitants of such cities IN
1890, 500 were males and in 1900. 497
were males; Of each 1000 inhabitants
living outside these cities in 1890, $40
were males and In 1900, $40 were
males. The difference thus in the
number Of males or of females between
an average thousand of city and OF
country population in 1890 was 10 end
In 1900, %.
This conclusion is not materially
modified when a more accurate meth
cd is employed and comparison made
between the figures In 1890 and 1900 for
the same list of cities, namely, all
which had at least $500 Inhabitants at
each date.
A marked and increasing dissocia-
ton of the sexes between city and
country like that in the United States
has been noted also in the leading
countries of western Europe.
on the other hand, there is large
excess of males in the principal cit
les Of Russia and India, and in Hong
kong and Manila.
This excess Of females in the cities
OF western Europe and eastern United
States is probably due mainly to the
greater opportunity for women to tind
employment in those cities and to their
migration cityward in consequence.
But even among children under five
years Of age, q slight dlHerence ap.
pears between cities having at least
Is. 900 inhabitants and the rest OF the
country. In such cities there are SOB
males to each 1000 children; outside
of them there are sos males to each
1000 children.
These figures support but do not
prove the theory that the proportion
of male children at birth is slightly less
in cities than in country districts.
Women Live Longer Than Men.
Notwithstanding the great excess OF
males in the total population OF the
United states, there are two periods OF
life at which the reported number OF
females Is greater. One, extending
from about SO years of age to the end
of life, Is probably due, mainly to the
longer average life of woman: the 9TH
err. from 16 to rs, is probably apparent
rather than real, and due mainly to the
greater number of women, who claim,
enormously, to belong to this age per-
iod.

More Males Than Females.
Some Of the conclusions reached are
of much scientific and practical impor-
lance, and may thus be summarized:
The whole population Of continental
United States was first counted with
distinction Of sex in 1920. During the
seventy years from 1880 to 1900 the alb
solute excess Of males was greater at
each census than at any preceding
CSilSuS Will OI1 GAScpSiOAib sAAelS VI 80 W
when the excess of males was less
than in 1850 and 1860.
This reduction of the excess of males
between 1860 and 1870 by about 300,-
900 was doubtless due to the deaths
in the civil war and the diminished inn
migration during the decade.
The greatest relative excess of males
was in 1890, when In each 10000 people
We're 242 more males than females.
BY 1900 this excess has decreased to
ZIG III 10000, less than the relative ex-
cess in 1890 and 1860, but greater than
that at each other census.
AS a rule sparsely settled regions
have an excess OF males and densely
settled regions an excess of females.
Between 1890 and 1900 the diver
gene. among the several states In this
respect decreased and the proportion
Of males and of females in different
sections became more nearly equal.
In 1880 about one-fourth and IN lsoo
less than one-sixth of the American
counties had an excess of females.
