The only remedy for the vice
evil is immediate repression and
ultimate complete humiliation.
The greatest menace to society
today, physically and morally is
commercialized vice.
Why does the boy go wrong9
When we can answer this question
can tell you why the girl goes
wrong.
Woman suffrage may not bring
the millennium or bring many
changes to the body polite, but
all real women will be unanimous
in their opposition to the liquor
traffic.
The immodest dressing of some
women today is the answer to the
question, Why do our boys go
wrong?v
We shall never reach even the
fringe of the solution Of this great
problem until women demand sim
gle standard for men and women
alike.
A man must say, II will bring
to my wife as pure life as l
expect from her.
Nearly three hundred people heard
Dean Walter Sumner speak on "The
DaWning Consciousness of Sex Loyal
ty,n at Guild Hall last evening, given
under the auspices of the Kenosha
County Equal Suffrage League. When
introducing Dean Sumner to the Keno
sha audience, the Rev. Fred Ingley
spoke of him not only as dean in the
church who had magnifed his office
by effective social service outside of
the church building, but as the chair
the first commission of it's kird financed
by the treasury of city, and as a
member Of the board of education.
Citizenship, said Dean Sumner,
81 is measured by efficiency and the
requisites for efficiency are knowledge
of conditions in your city, loyalty to
your country and community and the
action which should accompany them.
The problems which demand these
things of us are the result of conges-
ton in our cities resulting from the
weekly arrival Of thirty thousand I'M
migrants to our shores, the intensity
and speed of our industrial life and the
lack of controlling ideals. = He describ-
ed the mad pace at which we are going
by saying that Martha was the patron
saint of women, st Nitus Of the men !;
that our national disease was nervous
prostration, and that leisure was a
word for whose definition we should
have to look in the dictionary.
Probably the most vital message
which he had to give was in regard
to eommereialized vice. Dean Sumner
spoke from practical knowledge Of that
institution whose only excuse for ex-
istence is its antiquity.
A moral viewpoint and full informa-
tion is the only method by which the
problem of the social evil can be APP
preached, and the conclusion reached by
most people is that complete repression
of prostitution should be the goal of
all effort. Segregation does not segre-
gate and regulation gives a false Sc
curity against disease. He appealed to
the sex loyalty Of women who are so
concerned with these human things
which destroy or preserve the child and
the home. He said, all societies for
social betterment in Chicago had been
conceived by women, were administered
by women, and financed by women.
What they have done by indirection
they can do ten times better by the
direct method Of the vote. y

The committee in charge Of the

portant matters have been disposed of,
it will be brought to the attention of
the people in a way that will secure
results.
