WILL THEYHAN HER?

A woman has been sentenced to
hang in New Haven, Conn, for kill
ing her husband. The man~who con-
spired with her confessed to save his
own neck, but he, too, is condemned
to hang. If the woman is hanged, she
will be the first of her sex to die at
the hands of the state since 1886.
Before that year many women
were hanged or burned at the stake,
charged with witchcraft or sorcery
or being possessed of the 'evil eye"
The code of blue laws in effect at
that time in New England, and under
which the Salem witch cases were
tried, has never been repealed.

AS TO sex EDUCATION.

/ To what extent can sex instruction
| be given in the public schools? Wide
difference of opinion still exists
lamong school men ON the subject,
jud ging from reports received at the
United States ;, Bureau of Education
ERhsne is widespread recognition OF
what President Foster, of Reed Col,
llege, calls THE Social emergency,
and general agreement as to the need
Iof action against the social evil, but
when it comes to he question of what
part the public school shall PLAY, the
ideas range from a detailed plan OF
sex obstruction beginning in the ele,
mentary schools to determined op,
position to any form of sex education
Whatsoever.
Recently medical men have joined
hands with school men in the sex ny
giene movement. DIR. Hugh Cabot, a
distinguished physician of Boston, is
one OF the leaders in the demand for
sex instruction in the, schools. He, de-
.clares that the policy of silence and
punishment as spracticed in the past
has failed. He suggests education,
rather than punishment, as remedy
for social evils. He says: Sooner or
Eater we shall come to realize that
teaching the comprehension of the
sex Instinct is the function of the
public school, though we are far from
such realization today, Other
members of the American Federation
OF Sex Hygiene, including former
President Eliot, of Harvard, who. is
the head of the organization, holds
equally positive, views of the need for
sex instruction i ~ %,
on the otner hand, there are many,
both among educators and physicians,
yilo see danger in sex instruction in
the schools. DR., Tierney, president
of Woodstock college, Maryland, ex-
presses The fear that Is, in, the minds
OF many thinkers, when he says:

ton and temptation. Safety lies in

There are a number of reasons for

Governor Clarke. In fact the fire
waste of the country is so excessive
that it is sapping its prosperity. Re
duction OF this waste is an important
part of the campaign for the conser-
walton of the national resources.
Fire losses In the United States
Eand Canada in. 1912 were Szz5 1920 900,
most of them due TO carelessness.
Fire losses and the cost of fire pre-.
pyention in: the, United States amount
annually to $3.50, 900 900, or more than
the total American production of gold
silver, copper and petroleum in year
The cost of fires each year is one
half the cost of all the new buildings
erected in a year.
The annual per capita fire waste in
the United States is s2.51, in Europe
33c Cause: The latter has better
construction, less carelessness, in
creased responsibility.
If buildings in the United States
were as ffeproof as in Europe, the
|annual cost of fire losses and protect
ion would be only S90,000.000.
New York City spends $10.000,000
IA year for fire extinguishment and
$150,Oo0 year for fire prevention.
OF 1876 known causes of fire in Chi
cago last year, $40 were due to the
careless use of matches. Nearly ten
thousand matches are scratched every
second of the day in this country.
Over five thousand are killed and
50,0 600 are injured annually as result

and possessed books to read, and not
for parlor ornament only. As d
