SAYS LAWS DO NOT
MAKE SEX DISTINCTION

| PASADENA, Dec. S.-LEditor Her
add: It has always puzzled me why
some people, such as T. K. G., insist
that in one certain virtue-sex purity
there should be one code for men and
another for women. Why in this only
The law of the land makes no sex
distinction in regard to murder, torg-
cry, robbery, cruelty, fraud, etc.; the
church sets forth one standard for
both sexes in love, kindness, mercy,
generosity, peace and forbearance;
and society at large insists on the
same degree of honesty, reliability,
truthfulness and punctuality. Why,
then, in the one virtue that of all
others affects most the future physical
and moral salvation of the race should
there be a dual standard?
Consider the unborn babe, who If 1t
lives and grows will surely commit
some certain wrong act, for example,
theft. Who would be foolish enough to
insist that the sex of the child, must
be known before determining whether
that future act of theft would be right
or wrong? Yet according to T, K. q.
it would be impossible to lay down a
standard of morality for a human
being unless the sex is known.
For the common thief of both sexes
T. X. G. would make one law, but
would offer excuses for and offer i'm
munity to the male thief who squan-
ders his own life forces and who robs
his future wife and children of what
is theirs by all that is holy because,
forsooth, of 1.-THE great basic distinc-
ton of SEX"
The solution of the sex purity prob
lem lies with our mothers and daugh-
ters and sisters. Many men will lead
impure lives so long as they can find
pure women who will marry them
Let the women insist on a declaration
Of purity with the declaration of love
We need more women like Vera Fidelia
and Marion Martin. YOUNG MAN.

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 12.-[Editor
Herald: In today's Herald appears an
article headed aged mother weeps as

One hundred days on the chain gang

to me severe punishment How about

MARY BAKER G. EDDY

Fired with the zeal OF the prophets
AS they stood on the ramparts Of old
And told of Christ and his coming,
OF the hocking Of all to his fold.
A woman stands in the ardor
OF faith from a source that is high
And tells to the world Of the dawning
OF a day that is better and nigh;
A day that shall show man his oneness
with Him who rules Ger the spheres,
That shall send the sounding hosannas
Down the long line Of the years.
This woman has lifted humanity
Up from material groovesi
She has tested the Infinite Spirit
And every its potency proves.
She teaches the merging OF all Things
In the ocean OF Infinite Mind,
THE union OF all with Creator
In bonds that shall evermore bind.
That Jesus is now and forever
The model by which we must build
Our lives, our thoughts aud our actions
If we with Gods love would be filed.
Bringer Of peace to the people,
To the weary rest that is dear,
To the hopeless Joy out Of sorrow
To the seeker faith that's sincere;
Bright be the path as 1t opens
TO you as you go ON your way,
Dispensing TO loving believers
Hope and joy for their day.

EMMANUELISM

TN REVIEWING a new movement in
the life of the United States,
II Michael Williams, a magazine
writer, SAYS "It is at Emmanuel church
that we find exemplihed in the most
striking fashion that characteristic
feature of the new life that is dawn
ing, more particularly in the first of the
studies of the regenerating force which
is building up America, namely, the
working and harmonious agreement
which science has reached with mysti-
cism (using that word as betokening the
attempt to attain to actual knowledge
of the creative principle of all things.
Science until very recently trudged
sturdily but slowly along the deeply
dug out road of detail, of fact, OF the
document, in its search for knowledge.
Mysticism Ito use a comparison of
Huysmans) followed a parallel path
way in the air-where it often lost it's
way in the fogs, and sometimes took a
tumble. In New America, science is
now willing to look upward for guild
ance from mysticism, realizing that
from its elevated position mysticism
can look at once farther ahead and
farther backward; while mysticism is
equally willing to look downward for
guidance from science. realizing that
science provides road which mankind
in general finds easier ind safer to
travel than the parallel pathway in the
air. More and more viii this alliance
between inspiration and fact-hunting
prove useful as time goes on. The sue
cess of the Emmanuel movement has
been truly tremendous. It has spread
from Boston to New York and to other
cities.
1T has been taken up by clergymen
OF other denominations than Episco-
palian, and has deeply affected many
who do not openly put it's principles
into practice. Indeed I think I may
say that here today in New America.
we are witnessing a great revival OF
primitive and pure Christianity-the
distinguishing feature Of which revival
is the total absence of bigotry. We
find the leaders OF the Emmanuel move
ment acknowledging what they find
good and commend&ble in Christian
Science and the New Thought cults"
We think, as knowledge of the new
movement becomes more general, we
viii hear less and less Of that sweeping
kind of general denunciation of Chris
tlan Science to which The Herald has
had occasion, with extreme reluctance,
to call attention. There is so much in
common between-shall we call 1t EN-
manuelism ?-and Christian Science that
it is almost impossible to denounee one
OF them roundly and unreservedly with
out denouncing or attacking inferen-
TALLY the other.
Let us all hold our minds open, with
out prejudice, to the results Of the new
movement called by the writer from
whom we have quoted, "a great revival
of primitive and pure Christianity"

Equal suffragists in Los Angeles

not good form to call the citizenesses
"suffragettes." In England the leaders

Much of the time of the Southern
California delegation to the legisla-
ture was occupied in hearing
pleas for the retention and enforce
ment of present laws. After all, when
a law is on the statute book, it might
perhaps be the part of good citizen
ship to enforce it. But in California
and many other states certain laws
are distinguished for breach and not
observance. 1t might be a good idea
to make a law to the effect that all
laws enacted by the state of Califor-
mia say what they mean and mean
what they say. and should and must
be obeyed. This might be called a
general enabling act.

NAGOON SAYS He
DID GOOD WORK
CLAIMS THAT CRITICISM IS MAS
TIERS REPORT ~ BLAlsDLLL
CASE ARE Hi FOUNDED.

The matter OF the trusteesnip OF j.
Alfred Ma COON TO the j. l.. Blaisdcll es-
tate, was to have come up before Judge
De Bolt this morning but was crowded
out by a divorce case and was con-
tiuued until tomorrow morning at TO
o'clock. II is predicted by court Off
cials that the case will occupy the
better part of the week.
The trouble broke loose as result
of the report of John Marcalliuo, mas
ter who reported on Magoons ac-
counts adversely, recommending that
/ they be not approved, and the trustee
be surcharged with the amounts of
certain alleged improper investments,
moneys loaned him as trustee, and that
he be required to make good certain in
| vestments which turned out poorly.
/ Kinney & Marx as attorneys for the
heirs, on Saturday filed objections to
| the approval of the final and supple
mental accounts of Magoon, as trustee,
and also a motion to confirm the mas
ter's report and asking that the sur
| charges with interest for the amounts
alleged to be improperly invested be
made
/ j. Alfred Magoon filed a lengthy bin
of exceptions this morning to the re-
port Of John Marcallino, master
which criticized his management OF
the affairs of the j. l.. Blaisdell estate
rs trustee. Magoon, in his exceptions
/ declares that the masters report is I'M
fair, prejudiced and biased, and that
it fails to give any credit for his I'M
firing efforts in protecting and guard
ing the property, rights and interests
of the three Blaisdell minors during
the twelve years and over that he has
/ had charge of the trust estate"
/ He then points out that he has dur
/ ing the time accounted for S37 OPS. CT
in interest on the principal fund OF
SIG, 232S0, which income now exceeds
said entire principal fund by $40, 1885,
81. He has paid out OF this income for
support and education of the chill
dren, S1S,653.65, and after paying all
expenses has added to the principa
$l21O9.12. Out of rs mortgages only
two have been foreclosed by forced
sale.
Magoon declares the report made il
/ 'aith, and In ignorance, and tina
matters which the master approved
warmly in March, 1907, he now con
dennis.
That the master, while criticisms
this trustee for transferring to tn,
trust, securities originally taken il
the name Of J. Alfred Magoon, utter
ly fails to show that the said trus
suffered any loss or damage by rea
son of such transfers"
On the whole Magoon sets forth tha
he has made record breaking work il
handling the Blaisden property, ant
that he does not merit any criticism.
