Back Home Again.


"Back home from your summer out
ing?" Yes; the comparatively few of
us who al afford a summer outing
have returned and settled down to the
everydayness of life. 1t is quite pos
sible that too few Of us take a little
time off in the heated season for a
change of scene and a period of rest
Of recreation. President Taft thinks a
two or three months vacation is the
proper thing, and perhaps it is-for the
president of the United States. The
generality of mankind. not holding
such a strenuous job. cannot afford
such a long vacation. But the general
ity Of mankind. it would seem, ought
to be able to afford a week or so every
year away from work. away from

ting a new outlook. seeing something
different. doing things out of the GUS
tomary rut.
Vacations have become much more
general in very recent years. All the
great cities have nearby watering
places or country resorts to which
their inhabitants may repair at moder-
ate cost. Every town ought to have
some nearby locality that can be made
into a modest summer resort. where
people can spend their vacations with
out spending all their savings. Safe
and sane summer outings appeal to
the best intelligence of the age. 1t is

COOK SAYS HE WILL AGAIN

He Writes To Friend in New York

NEW YORK, Nov. THAT Dr..
Frederick A. Cook has finally decided
10 emerge from his retreat" and press
his claims as the real discoverer OF
the North pole, was learned today
when Capt. b. s. Osbon, one OF his
closest friends. received a letter from

was dated London, Eng, Oct. l6. and
I'm Il DR.. Cook said that he has al
most completed all OF his letters and

scientific societies.
In discussing the Knud Rasmussen
report from Greenland that Rasmus-
sen has interviewed the Cook and
Peary Eskimos, and has concluded
that neither Cook nor Peary reached
point within 100 miles OF the pole,
Capt Osbon said today:
of course there can be no question
that those hardy natives OF the north
are capable OF making astronomical
observations and did make them and
thus can positively say how far north
both Cook and Peary went. In Dr.
Cooks letter to me, he says My
case will eventually rest on its own
merits without reference to rival in

Cook are compiled and published, "a

Tell TRUTH ABOUT
FACTS Of NATURE
--DR. Was. HALL.
Purity Campsigner Again Protests
Against Stork and Bramble Bush
Tales as To Origin of Life.
-DR. WAS. HALL.

Obscene pictures, alcohol and mar.
cotics. such as tobacco. combine TO
undermine the virility aud vitality Of
boys and young men, according 20 the
statements OF DR. Winfield Scott Hall
in the course of his address before
the members OF the Pastors union in
the auditorium OF the Y. NJ. c. A.
Monday morning.
The doctor stated emphatically that
the alcohol in the drinks taken by
| young men and the narcotic in tobac-
co often benumb the will power when
II is most needed 10 overcome tempta-
lions. He dwelt on this point as a
result OF question asked by one OF
the clergymen.
DR.. Hall used the plainest kind OF
language in speaking 10 the clergy
men, explaining that he could be frank
with them because the doctors and
ministers of the gospel were looked on
as the family instructors in matters
OF social hygiene.
A decade ago said DR. Hall. 1T
would have seemed unthinkable for a
gathering OF this kind TO discuss the
sex question. We were then i'm the
nineteenth century. now we are IN
| the twentieth century II is now no
| longer considered bad taste TO speak
! OF the sex question in society. and IL
| is we'll that conditions have changed.
| The boys and girls of today must Ger.
tainly be informed OF the allurements
which beSet their every step as they
go out into the world Every city has
| its social evil and this wrong is a
menace 10 every home. Every doe
! tor and clergyman knows that the
! home is menaced by the social evil.
For the correction of this social
evil only education will be available.
! The laws OF the country won't do.
The education in this respect rests
with the parents. but here is where
the difficulty comes-the parents OF
today are not prepared 10 do the
teaching. But the mothers must learn
20 instruct their daughters and the
fathers must begin to teach their
boys the secrets OF life. The mothers
will find that IL is much better for
the daughter 10 tell her the truth
about the birth of children. The story
OF the stork and the bramble bush
SuOull no longer De lOlu. Daughters
should also be informed OF the truths
of nature and thus properly prepared
for the duties OF motherhood.
THE mother who tells her children
the truth about human development
will find that they will grow up into
fine. healthy boys and girls. budding
later into strong men and women. BY
giving the children the plain. naked
truth OF creation, the mother is only
filing their hearts with the true
thought given out by the Creator Him.
self in the beginning of the world
This kind of teaching is twentieth
century pedagogy, the sacred truths
OF nature. OF course. there is a psy-
Geological moment for the impart-
ing of such knowledge TO children, and
mothers must learn 10 detect this
period themselves II will not be hard
for them to determine when the
proper time comes. II arrives when
the child begins 70 ask questions about
human nature"
The period of adolescence was a try
ing one for boy and girl. the doctor
