SHOWS SUFFERERS
FROM HOOKWORM

The most famous case Of hookworm
disease in medical annals. so-calIed by
DR.. II. c. Stiles, of the Public Health
Service, formed a living exhibition at
DR.. Stiles lecture last night on Hook
worm" DR.. Stiles lecture was given at
the exhibition hall of the Internai iIonaI
Congress on Hygiene and Demography.
This boy" said DR.. Stiles came from
the sand-belt district of the South. He
was brought into the government hos
pital a year ago in a dying condition
and at the time of his reception was
regarded largely in the light of scientific
material, as IT was thought nothing could
save him. His condition was IL per cent
of par Under treatment he became 81
per cent of par within six weeks. and
to-day he is IS per cent of normal. He
is now seventeen years old, and though
still short for his age, he has grown four
inches within the past twelvemonth."
By way Of contrast DR.. Stiles then
brought forward another boy still suffer
ing from the disease. This boy" said
DIR. Stiles. ''is fourteen years old, but by
the Binet-Simon test for mental develop
ment he grades only nine and one-half
years old. 1 found him in a school,
where he was in the third grade, which
contained sixty-three pupils, all told, and
II there was a healthy child among them
all I did not see him. This boy can be
entirely cured of his disease In from
four to six weeks. He is now 81 per cert
of par"
DIR. Stiles then went on 70 describe the
disease and the methods of prevention
and cure, which he declared to be both
simple and cheap.

INSTRUCT CHILD,
SAYS DR.. FOLKMAR
Washington Physician Urges Par.
ents to Tell Story of Birth
of New Life.

DIR. Elnora c. Folkmar, director of the
educational department of the Women
Clinic, of Washington, yesterday gave
the first of three lectures on sex in
struction in the home and the public
schools. The lecture was illustrated by
ninety stereopticon views and two NOV
Ing pictures of reproduction in plant life.
She said:
THE common attitude Of mystery. of
secrecy, of aloofness concerning the
birth Of a new life only intinsifies in
the minds OF children the false notions
which they receive from perverted play
mates Too long have parents neglected
their duty in this matter
a Vexing question is when and how
to tell the children. When a child is old
enough to ask a question he should have
a truthful answer within the limits OF
his understanding. Do not wait until the
first information is obtained from outside
sources. First impressions are deepest
and most lasting. They persist through
out life. They attract similar impress
sions and repel those OF contrary nature,
for 1t is a psychological truth that We
soon think in grooves.
III the parent tells the child a false
hood or gives an evasive answer about
these things, the child is apt to think
that the perverted tales he hears from
older children must be true, and that
this is the reason the mother does not
want to talk about the matter. There is
thus created a gulf between parent and
child that it is hard to bridge over later.
Do not walt for the child to seek in
formation. Teach the facts of reproduc-
tion when teaching other facts about
plants and animals Then II will come
natural. and not be a question OF Pc
culiar interest"

"Chan1ber of Horrors"
Creates a Sensation
Vernon M. Cady Makes
Warm Reply, Declar.
ing 1t viii Aid the
Human Race.

Vernon NJ. Cady. of the American
Federation for Sex Hygiene made a
warm reply yesterday afternoon to the
charge Of DR.. Ira s. Vile, of the So
ciety for Sanitary and Moral Prophy-
lcxis, to the effect that the Hygiene
Federation's exhibit was chamber of
horrors" lacking moral educational or
reforming effect and appealing to the low
ethical stimulus of fear.
The charts. models, casts. photo
graphs and SO on OF which our exhibit
consists are not placed for the sake of
frightening people into doing right, :"
said Mr.. Cady, but for the sole purpose
OF giving the truth regarding the raw
ages Of these diseases to the public We
contend that in presenting definite,
scientific and accurate information on
the subject OF social diseases we are
giving the crusader against white slav-
cry his most potent weapon.
Il take issue with DIR. Vile, also,
when he says that We shall always have
social diseases with US. Already there
has been a very noticeable decrease in
them. and I venture the prediction that
within twenty-five years there will be
little left either of white slavery or
their consequent diseases. The best cure
for these evils is the elimination OF
their cause"
The Washington herald., 1912-09-26
DR.. Ira S. Vile, of New,
York, Condemns the
Exhibit on Social Dis
oncoc

II disapprove Of this whole exhibi-
tion," declared DR.. Ira S. Vile, OF New
York, member of the executive COM
mittee of the Society for Sanitary and
Moral Prophylaxis, yesterday morning. In
speaking OF the exhibit installed by the
American Federation for Sex Hygiene at
the exposition building of the Congress
OF hygiene and Demography. His an
nouncement caused a sensation.
While addressing an audience Of Wash
ingtonians on Sex Education" he sud-
denly broke the thread of remarks, and
pointing to the federation's exhibits IL
lustrating the effects of social diseases
he cried out:
q Now, look at that-a perfect chamber
of horrors. Do you suppose for one
instant that that has q moral, or a re-
forming, or even an educational effect?
If / had my way. I would rip out this
whole exhibit and. with the exception
of the section on eugenics / would re-
model II from one end to the other.
II don't believe that fear is a high
ethical concept to appeal to. For a
single type, fear may be an efficient cor
rectional influence; but for the generality
or manhood, never. Our efforts must
be turned, not toward dragooning the
young to do right, but toward the incul-
cation OF that right-thinking which leads
to right doing.
Moreover, appeal to fear is based on
a wrong psychology. When the young
are struggling between a clash Of i'm
the desire to do an IL
Lett act and the fear Of the consequences
more often than not desire conquers
fear"

Memphis, Tenn, Sept. 25.-After q
days leisurely jaunt through Arkansas
Col Roosevelt reached this city to-
night with a record OF having made
but one political speech on a working
campaign day." His lone political ut
terance was brief. being wedged In on
his run from Little Rock here.
You ought to be with the Progressive
party because. II for no other reason.
We are trying to abolish boss rule. "
quoth the Colonel to a throng OF 500
who waited for him in the rain al
Brinkley. Ark. He went on to tell OF
the theft of the Republican nominal
tlon at Chicago and how Mr.. Wilson's
nomination was handed him by the
bosses"
That was all Roosevelt had to say
about politics to the listening populace.
But he talked to Progressive party
leaders In Arkansas and on his train.
From these men the former President
learned that he has as much chance OF
carrying Arkansas in November as the
Sunny South has OF seeing a blizzard.
Arkansas Is put down as unalterably
Democratic. While supporters OF Champ
Clark are up in arms over his turn
down at Baltimore and. according to the
signs. many of them will vote for Roose-
welt. the Democratic vote is expected
~ nc DiB tuOukH " give wilson a Sud-
stantial majority.
So Roosevelt did not waste time stump
ing Arkansas. He went to Little Rock
to talk on the improvement Of the
Mississippi River by the government be-
fore the Lakes-tc-the-Gulf Deeper Water
ways Association.
At the convention John NJ. Parker, cot
ton broker, OF New Orleans, and Pro-
gressive national committeeman from
Louisiana. evoked a round Of applause
by introducing Col. Roosevelt as the "au-
thor OF the Panama Canal. future builder
OF the Mississippi waterway. and the
greatest living American citizen"
In the audience sat Senator Jeff Davis
Of Arkansas. who on divers occasion has
hurled oratorical broadsides at Roose-
welt, calling him dictator and dema-
gogue." The militant Senator was asked
to occupy a seat near Roosevelt on the
platform. but he observed that no plat
form ever built was big enough to hold
them both. Roosevelt then lauded Davis
colleague. Senator Clark. for the latter's
efforts to consummate the Panama Canal
project.
The former President outlined the plan
in the Progressive platform
10 use the implements employed on the
Panama Canal construction for the deep
ening OF the Mississippi River.

CHILD'S ABILITY
AT AGE OF SEVEN

Here are some Of the things your child
should be able to do when he is seven
years old:
He should be able to count to thirteen,
touching an object representing each
progressive number as he counts.
He should be able to repeat the days
Of the week.
He should be able to make change in
simple sums.
He should be able to recognize the
principal colors.
He should be able to tell time.
He should be able to pick out missing
details in pictures.
He should be able to draw in the miss
ing details.
If he can't do all these things, he is
retarded in the development for which
each act. according to psychologists, is
an expression.
These details were brought out in the
Ensemble on the Work of the I.abora-
tory for Child Study" which was given
under the direction Of Miss Mary r.
Campbell. of Chicago. yesterday after
noon as part of the free course of pop-
ular lectures on hygiene and health SUBJ
jects at the exhibition building of the
Congress on Hygiene and Demography
The ensemble was attended by an
audience which crowded the hall, some
two-thirds Of the spectators being Wash
ington school-teachers.
Miss Campbell asserted that there were
certain definite, simple, and easily learned
tests of mentality which any mother
could apply to her children, and by
means of which she could tell absolutely
whether her children were making the
proper progress in school and in all
around mental growth. These tests.
which are the unrestricted property of
the world. are known as the Binet-Simon
system, and were given by their inven-
tor, the psychologist. Alfred Binet, freely
to mankind.
Periodical examinations Of the child's
physical condition to ascertain whether
he was getting his growth and main
tanning his health were also advocated

Rebels in Sonora are said to have split
