CLEAN BODY MUST GO WITH CLEAN MIND Murder Never Committed By Man With Clean Shirt OBEY THE SIMPLE RULES Rev. Patterson Delivery the Third of Series of Talks at the Y. M.
 c. A. on Living
 Clean Life"
OBEY THE SIMPLE RULES

"fhe Living of a Clean Life" was the subject of the talk by the Rev. L. D. Patterson yesterday afternoon at the Young Men ns/Christlan association buld- ing. This was the third of a series cf talks Mir. Patterson is delivering on "A Clean Life' and despite the unfavorable conditions of the weather a good audience was present to hear him. He spoke very foreibly for a short time on the condi- tions one must meet In order to live d clean life. In part he said. Man has I three-fold nature, made up of body, mind and soul. These three manifestations go to make up all that there is in man, and he Is not an ideal man who negects the development of either of these three phases of his life. If you mar or neglect anyone of these manifestations you mar your whole manhood and cast a dark shadow over the possibilities of a success full and happy career for yourself and life that might have counted much for the advancement and uplifting of your fellow man. We must realize that the body has a vast amount of power over the other phases of our nature and reaiiz- ing~this we cannot afford to let our body suffer The Young Mems Christian as- sociation has recognized this am: in con sequence has provided gymnasums swim ming pools, game rooms, etc, which tend to develop the physical side of man, in or der that he may have more power in his mental and spiritual sphere. One must keep his body in clean and healthy con dition. He cannot be a pure minded man with dirty body. God does not approve of a dirty body and no man can attain to a successful career who neglects his body and allows it to remain in a dirty and filthy condition. It has been shown by statistics that a man never committed murder who at the same time had on a clean shirt. You may examine the record of every offender of the law and you will find that in almost every case he has neg
 lected the cleanlnes sof his body or the development of his three-fod nature.

belt is in excellent condition, the only drawback being the lateness of the crop. There the crop will be finished in an unusually clean condition as regards cul- tivation.
 An occasional complaint from drought is heard and once in a while there is a section which has had too much rain. As a rule the moisture was well dis trbuted and highly beneficial Central Texas seems to fear too much rain, as the crop has been stimulated to very rapid growth by the hot weather and showers of ten days now just past
 Blooms are reported from all sections. The plant has a thrifty appearance and looks sticky. Cultivation is well advanced, except in a few sections i in the west, where some recent abandonment is re- ported for lack of cultivation. In the earlier parts of the belt the plant is fruit ing well. The farm sentiment is decided ly more hopeful, though no reports indi- cate full crop.

All class-rooms should have picture

The blackboards give more trouble
than almost anything else IN any
scheme OF decoration. In the erection
OF school building and placing OF the
blackboards care should be taken to
secure those that will not he out OF

school-room. At the top OF the black

The walls should be of deeper, richer

These are some ways In which tho
classroom can be made more attrac-

and profitable. Some may look on
these suggestions anent the school

and utopian for Virginia, but am
not of that opinion. Great things are
in store for the public schools of our

educational awakening are coming bet

SCHOOL-ROOM DECORATIONS

Sometime ago the Times-Dispatch
engaged an eminent artist from the
North to direct a campaign for the
decoration OF the school-rooms of
Richmond. Manchester and Henrico
county. In that movement for maxi
Ing more attractive the environment
of the pupils OF our public schools l
heartily concurred. and was deeply
gratificd that the Manchester schools
succeeded In capturing one of the coll
lections of casts offered. The contest
conducted BY the Times-D Dispatch and
directed by Miss Gertrude L. Brink
haus left. l am quite certain, a lasting
Impression upon the schools of this
community. and the movement was q
credit to this already progressive and
influential paper.
Apropos of this recent contest, I
wish to call attention to several points
on school room decoration which have
since occurred to me. First. the care
ful attention OF school authorities
should be given to the walls Glaring
white walls are not only inartistic, but
injurious to the eyes, straining and
weakening them through the reflec-
ton of the light. The number OF chill
dren whose eyes are seriously affected
during their early school days Is le-
gion. and the cause must be. in large
measure in the reflection of the strong
white light on the walls. President
Elliott of Harvard University, says,
The best place to inculcate the love
of the beautiful Is In the school room.
To the rising generation the most cf-
fecttve lessons can be given. and from
the school millions OF children will
carry tho lessons to millions OF homes.h
How can xha love OF the beautiful. the
artistic and aesthetic taste be culti-
waited In the minds Of the millions of
our school children unless their en-
viron.nent be made attractive? And
