LOST BOY
No Trace of Boy Who Disap
peared West of River

Camp Crook, Nov. l3.-The report
that the body of Percy Webber. a
Camp Crook hoy who has been mys-
teriously missing for some time, had
been found in a gravel pit some
miles from his home, and that u
negro had confessed to his murder,
proves to be without foundation, al
though it was given general circula-
ton throughout Harding county. As
a further development in the case of
the missing boy, Edward and James
Lake. uncles of the boy, have offered
a reward of 800 for any information
as to his whereabouts. As not the
slightest trace of the boy can be found,
it is believed in some quarters that
be has been the victim of foul play
and that his body has been concealed
at some out of the way point where il
may neyer be found. The disappear.
ance of the BOY is the greatest mystery
with which the authorities of Harding
county have ever had to deal.

SEX STUDY
In the Schools-Taylor Method
Meets With Favor at
Purity Congress

Sioux City. Nov. t3.--H. L. Hough-
ton, general secretary of the Associated
Charities bureau, who returned from
Minneapolis, where be attended the
national purity congress meetings,
stated that as a result of the meeting
he would advocate the establishment OF
the Taylor method of teaching sex IN
the schools method of Induction.
Charles K. Taylor, who framed the
method. was a speaker at the CON
gress and will go through Sioux City
Saturday on his way to Kansas City.
where the Taylor system has been
adopted by the schools. Mr.. Houghton
said that after supt. Clark and him.
self had opportunity to study the
methods used by Mr.. Taylor in detail
that the author would be asked to
come here for two or three days and
discuss his methods with those inter
ested in education and the movement
to explain sex in the schools.
Cndar the Taylor method secrets of
life are told naturally through study
of plant and animal husbandry In the
lower grades and through lessons cal
culated to inspire boys and girls with
desire to attain physical perfection.
Domestic Science Is an avenue to the
early explanation of sex mysteries
under the Taylor meth ID.
Boys and girls, as they go through
the grade schools, are prepared to
face a physical examination that all
must undergo before they become high
school students. Students are barred
from entrance where found physically
unfit to do the work required and,
where immoral conditions are found,
disbarment from tine high school re-
suits.
The Taylor plan, Mr.. Houghton
said, had been worked out satisfac-
torily in the Philadelphia schools,
where desire to meet the requirements
of the physical examination brought
about a marked degree of physical and
moral perfection.
Mr.. Houghton brought with him
from the conference data that he
turned over to Supt. Clark. Nj.
Clark has expressed himself as inter.
ested in the project of introducing
sex study in the schools.

make his filing thereon, thus giving
him the choice Of picking out . farm

ment. The first prize has been valued

seems to have been that rrior to regis.
tering for q chance at the Nebraska
land, he had previously exercised all
his rights to file upon COVER nment land.
Stromberg's disqualification consisted
of being already the owner of too much
property, nnder the provisions Of the
ruling of the government land officials.
He owned and had title to an excess
of 100 acres of land at the time Of regis
tering.
The two capita. prize winners Ia the

Calico Rock, Dec. 8.-As a re- suit of recent heavy rains that have fallen in this section dur inc the past week, White river is rising at rapid rate, and ln dications are that it will reach a higher stage than has been known for several months
 The public ferry at this place has been froced to cease opera tions on account of the sudden rise of the river, hence trans portation facilities are almost cut off from the opposite side ot the river. Many inland points that depend on the White river road for mail and freight, which has to cross the river, are put at a disadvantage.
