Last Sunday Rev. A. Il. White, rep.
resentative of the Purity Civic
League, gave two very interesting
and instructive discourses in this
place. In the afternoon he spoke at
the Baptist church where men only
were admitted and what he has to say
will not be soon forgotten by the
large number of men present. He ex-
planned that the league was endeavor-
ing to arouse the people of this state
to an active campaign against moral
vice in all its forms and to secure the
passage of laws that will make it easy
for the citizens of the state to do
right and hard to do wrong. Among
the laws that they want is better
divorce law, because the majority of
the children of divorced parents go
wrong. Also law to compel every
man to pass an exacting physical ex-
animation before he can secure mar
riage license; laws against the white
slave traffic in all its ramifcations
laws to compel mayors and other Of
flcials to enforce the statutes or get
out of office; laws to abolish the Gig
arctic. He gave fathers the advice to
be chums with their boys and mothers
with their girls. He also advised the
father not to allow their boys to
sleep with or associate intimately
with older boys or men. He also out
lined a plan whereby the people of
this place can organize a local league
and become affiliated with the state
movement. 1t Is hoped that such an
organization will be possible here
and that their influence will correct
some of the condition in even q small
place like Fredericktown.
