GREAT IMPORTANCE
OF THE LEGISLATURE.

The member Of the legislature is a less imposing personage than many of the other officers who will be elected next Tuesday, but there VIII be no other force set in opera ton at the institution Of the state government that will be so potent for good or evil as the majority ir the legislature. No majority that viii ever succeed it, will be able to ex ort such an influence upon the af fairs of Arizona It does not make so much difference what our sena tors and representatives in congress may do 50 far as any direct effect upon tbe people of the state is con cerned. The governor and the courts will be less powerful to accelerate or rotard the development Of the state

The allusion of the executive com mittee Of the American Federation of Labor, at this late date. to the kidnapping" of the McNamaras, sounds strange. It cannot matter in the light of late events how they were taken just so they were taken. All this talk about Kidnapping" is apt to be interpreted SIS an expres- sion Of regret that the McNamarzs have been brought to justice

Sex instruction in the Schools

Journal Of American Medical ASSOC }
At the recent annual conference Of
the American School Hygiene Associa-
ton a paper was read by DR.. Charles
W. Eliot, expresident of Harvard
University, on school instruction in
hygiene. DR.. Eliot devotes consider
able space to the problem Of education
in sexual matters, coming to the con-
clusion that under present conditions
it is desirable. that such instruction
should be given in the schools. The
direction that the subject is an un-
clean one and unsuitable for such
public discussion he answers by point
ing to the disastrous results that have
obtained in the past from allowing
this objection to govern our policy.
Another objection is that the subject
is such a sacred one that it can prop
erly be discussed with children by
their parents only. To this DR. Eliot
replies that, while the instruction of
children in this subject by parents is
most desirable when possible, a great
majority of parents possess neither
the necessary knowledge nor the pow
err of expression to instruct their chill
dren properly on this subject.
The general outline for such a
scheme of teaching consists of a pro-
longed course of natural history be-
ginning early with botany and pro-
crossing to an elementary considera-
ton of zoology, using every possible
means of illustration both indoors and
out. Children should be thoroughly

SerVedlI.

Here the cooperation of the family
physician will be of the greatest val
ue. The physician may not often
have the opportunity Of instructing
children and young people; indeed,
many physicians have no special APP
titude for the task. The opportunity
of enlightening the older members of
a family, however, must often come
to every general practitioner, and he
has only to use it judiciously to ac
complish much good, since on these
matters advice which would not be
tolerated from a layrnan will gener-
ally be received with respect from
physician.
The need for more widely diffused
knowledge of this nature is so great
that the experiment Of introducing
the subject in the public schools seems
to be urgently demanded, though
there is no need to forget that it is
an experiment 1t would be foolish
to regard the difficulties in the way as
insuperable; it would be equally I'M
wise to minimize them. While SO
much Of method remains to be work
ed out it would not be prudent to
demand work along this line from
any educators except those best quail
fed by wisdom. experience and the
confidence of the communities in which
they labor. We hope that some Of
these may before long produce results
that will justify others in following
their lead.

acquainted through means with the
principles of the various modes Of
Transmitting life before any sex emo
lions begin to stir in them" Later
the course should include physiology
and should teach something of the
causes of disease, by no means omit
ting, though not unduly emphasizing
the venereal affections. One OF the
dangers to be avoided in such instruc-
tior- as we have remarked before, is
the placing of disproportionate stress
on the negative side of the subject.
The plan outlined is not a new one,
but the fact that it enaanates from so
an authority in educa-
tional matters entities it to fresh con-
sideratiOn. No one competent to
nudge the question will attempt to re-
flute DR.. Eliot's two fundamental
propositions the evils which result
from the '.world-old conspiracy Of si-
readiness-of a large proportion of pa
rents to instruct their children in sex
hygiene To admit these two facts,
however, will scarcely be, for many
perplexed eduncators, to see the way
clear to the introduction of the sub
iect in the public schools. From the
nublished abstract of DR.. Eliot's pa
which he gave to the
not inconsiderable amount of pioneer
work which must first be done. 1t
may be that the practical difficulties
which loom large to those working at
the bottom of the educational struc-
ture dwindle in perspective when view
ed from the top.
Parents who are unfit to give in
struction to their children cannot
therefore be regarded as negligible
ia ctors in the educational scheme. 1t
would be rash to attempt to instruct
children in the fundamental facts of
life without first soberly and tactful-
lv educating their parents, carefully
avoiding undue shock to prejudice and
affront to custom. No
one engaged in this task can afford
TO forget that at present the unvary-
ing decent concealment or avoidance
of certain subjects almost usurps the
place of morality in the esteem of
many people, both the overdainty
and ultrarefined on the one hand and
the densely ignorant on the other. 1t
will not do for the school to disturb
in the minds Of children ideals still
respected in their homes. The con-
f1ict of authority that is sure to re-
suit will be detrimental to the inf1u-
ence of both school and home; but
the school will suffer most, and de-
