The Blindness of
Virtue"

When will we acknowledge the
terrible tax that morality has
paid to puritanism? Prudery is
the mother OF vice. not of virtue
This is an epoch OF sanitation
and prevention, but we need
more than fresh air and sewers
to insure a wholesome genera
ton.
Prophylactic science will ac
complish little of worth until the
sunlight streams as fully into our
souls as it pours into our rooms,
and openwork plumbing is IN
stalled as generally in our brains
as in our homes.
Ignorance is mans greatest
enemy, and ignorance of sex re-
sponsibility is the most brutaliz-
ing and terrible form of ignor-
ance with which we are called
upon to deal.
Truth will out. Every boy
and girl must eventually learn
what parents in criminal false
pride refuse to teach.
A great play recently appeared
in New York, 1.-The Blindness OF
Virtue by Cosmo Hamilton.
Hamilton is a distinguished
novelist and dramatist imbued
with.a splendid purpose.
He dared to challenge the an
cient hypocrisies, he has torn the
SNUG mask from the cOwardly
mother and father There is not
an offensive line nor a salacious
situation in his drama.
New York came, saw, and con-
demned. The able critics of the
Times and the world devoted col.
umns of eulogies to the product
ion and welcomed the advent of
eugenics before the footlights. but
night after night empty houses
greeted the actors. The public
would not tolerate an assault up
on it's beloved false modesty.
What an Indictment of our mas
ty niceness! For years the vel
kin has rung with protest again
st the stages glori6cation OF
wanton woman and specious leb-
ertines, but the throngs continue
crowd wherever the marriage tie
is ridiculed and illicit love ennob-
led. Surely, the rest of America
cannot be like this. Civiliza ton
has counted for little if mothers
are still ashamed to disclose the
noblest of all facts-that children
are born out of vast love, and
that such love is the hottest thing
under the stars.
How much better to teach a
decent and uplifting phase of the
sex relation than to submit boys
and girls to inevitable demoraIi-
cation.
You can't hide it-you are up
plumb against life itself in this
equation.
There never was more immOr-
atty pro rata to population.
There never was a higher per
centage of venereal disease. 1t is
all the result ofignorance. Foul
ness cant infect clean brains,
You probably say that yours
are in no danger-that they are
too well reared,
But that is what the mothers
and fathers of the bad boys and
bad girls and the diseased boys
and the diseased girls thought

's's< 4 b the growth and pro-
of succeeding crops.
ash land is usually rich in po-
Vand ~phosphoric acid and poor in
frogen (organic matter.) Alfalfa
appears to correct the lack of nitro
gen by the cultivating effect of it's
wonderful root system, but the be-
lief that it adds large amounts of
nitrogen to the soil for other crops is
erroneous. Exhaustive studies have
shows that all thought is capable of
manufacturing its own nitrogen
when this element is lacking in the
soil, it is also great feeder on nit
rogen and deposits very little excess
Of soluble nitrates. Therefor the
benificial effect of alfalfa seems due,
not so much to the addition of mira
ties, but rather to the loosening and
penetrating effect of its roots, and
to whatever organic matter may re-

1t should be borne in mind, that
while it can supply its own nitrogen,
it must rs do other crops, get its po-

BeIlicose gentlemen like Mr.. Roose-

sometimes broken there is no wide
spread demand that the punishment
Of burglars be turned over to the

good deal better than the ruling force
of that nation. especially in the case
