Dunno Opposes Sex
Hygiene IN Schools
Governor Tells Teachers Of Illinois Home is
Proper Place for that Subject-Warns
of It's Dangers.

SPRINGFIELD H., December 81.
With straight-arm Jolt at the
teaching of sex hygiene in the public
schools, Governor Edward F. Dunno
opened the Illinois state teachers
meeting. After urging the Importance
of teachers to every line OF endsavor,
Governor Dunno criticised the teach
ing Of sex hygiene as follows:
"On this question hold firm views
as husband and father, which
think 1t will not be amiss for me to
state to this conference. The propo-
sition to teach young children in open
class the secrets of sex hygiene, the
methods of reproduction Of the spa
cies, the mysteries of the organs of
generation, is to my mind. as hus,
band and father. horrible mistake.
The teachings of the christian anG
Jewish religions inculcate chastity
and modesty.
"Modesty is the GROWING glory of
girlhood and womanhood, and the
teaching of such subjects, even in the
most chaste and guarded language, In
open classroom, where children be-
tween the ages of and Is years are
gathered, in my humble judgment,
will rob girlhoodt Of its modesty and
boyhood of It's decency.

father or mother can address his

the dangers that may result from in
timacies between the sexes.
ITO talk out In the open in the
public schools In the presence OF
girls and boys Of the same age. in
my judgmen emit, will not be productive
Of protection to the young, but will
on the contrary induce at that age
prurient curiosity for further infor-
nation, which the children will obtain
in way that violates all modesty
and decency.
In my view the teaching of sex
hygiene should come direct from the
parents of the child at that age when
such instruction becomes absolutely
necessary, and should, not DE commit
ted to any one else, particularly to a
teacher In the open classroom | favor
instruction upon sex hygiene to the
mothers and fathers of the land

treatises and that they be placed in

the land
Says Parents Should Know Facts.
Il favor educating the parents to
inlpart this knowledge at the time
and under circumstances when 1t be-
comes absolutely necessary. This can
be done without violating the rules OF
modesty and deeency. The teachers
Of the state have enough in their cur
riculum at the present time to fully
occupy their time and to pace upon
their shoulders the responsibility OF
inparting sex secrets to children in

would be a blunder and mistake"

RUNAWAY
Boys From Shelby Are
Caught In Mt. Vernon
And Are Sent Back There
By The Officials
shelby Citizen)

Truant officer ELAN Hines received
word this morning from the probation
officer at Mt. Vernon that Windy"
Roush, Sam Armstrong, and Leonard
Koontz, who ran away from school,
were held there, awaiting instruc-
tions. They were sent back to Shell
by on the b. Il o. train, arriving here
at 4:20 this afternoon.
They were noticed as strangers in
Mt. Vernon and when questioned by
the police, gave their names correct
ly and their address as Shelby. A
telephone message this morning con
firmed the belief that they had left
town.
The three boys probably went down
to Mt. Vernon some time Tuesday af-
ternoon or evening and stopped there,
expecting to find something to do.
They were arrested, however, so
soon they were quite surprised, and
are now back in Shelby and will con-
tinue to attend school here.
They never thought that the law
compelling boys to attend school until
they reach the age of sixteen, works
as rigidly in Mt Vernon as it does in
Shelby. There is no place to which
truants may go in fact, without run,
ming up against the long and strong
arm of the law.
