SEX HY GENE
NEW FIELD Of
SCHOOL LABOR
Educators of Nation Declare it Is
Necessary to Reduce the
Social Evil.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 27.-To what
extent can sex INSTRUCTION be given
In the public schools? Wide differ
ence Of opinion still exists among
schoolmen on the subject, judging
from reports received at the United
States Bureau Of Education. There
is widespread recognition of what
President Foster. Of Reed College
calls The Social Emergency" and
general agreement as to the need of
action against the social evil. but
when it comes to the question Of what
part the public school shall play. tine
ideas range from detailed plan OF
sex instruction beginning in the eie-
mentarY schools to determined OPP
position to any form OF sex education
whatsoever.
Prof. Thomas NJ Ballet, of New
York University. outlines several
points OF attack in sex education. He
believes sex instruction can now be
given to the following groups: %
To parents. by means of lectures;
90 to enlisted men in the army and
navy where the need for ii is urgent;
90 10 college students, both men and
women; a. to young people in Y. NJ
G. AS and similar associations. Dr.
Ballet considers sex instruction to
college students particularly valu
able; because it will enable them to
impart sex knowledge in turn to
pupils in elementary and secondary
schools, as soon as the public is pre-
pared for this step.
Recently medic almen have Joined
hands with -schoolmen In the sex
hygiene movement. DR.. Hugh Cabot
a distinguished physician OF Boston,
is one OF the leaders In the demand
for sex instruction in the schools. He
declares that the policy, of silence
and punishment as practiced in the
past has failed. He suggests educa-
ton, rather than punishment, as a
remedy for social evils. He says:
Sooner or later we shall come to
realize that teaching the compre-
hension OF the sex instinct is the
function Of the public school, though
we are far from such a realization
to-day" other members of the
american Federation of Sex Hygiene,
rcluding former President Eliot, Of
Harvard, who is the head of the or
imitation, mold equally positive
Jews OF the need for sex instruction.

CHICAGO, Sept. 27.-SociAl well

she had lived six months on meals
which food experts said we're suf1-

her act was given in a note:
wages too low. Life not worth

weekly expenditures, showing that

were entries which stated that her
daily diet consisted of the following:
For breakfast: Coffee and rolls.
For dinner: Beef stew and milk.

The menu in the girls diary was
submitted to an expert on food values
who asserted it contained all of the
elements necessary to support life.

was once enabled to dispose of as
many as SO calls in one day, and her
average number was 40.
Asked for a time schedule of one OF
her calling days, Mrs. Marshall smiled.
II never kept a record. Usually
left the hotel at 3 o'clock and re-
turned at 6 o'clock The Vice Presi-
dent informs me that the car made
an average of 80 miles day. Then
there was usually sufficient variety to
make the visiting highly interesting.
For example, enc call would be at
the home of a hostess in Chevy Chase.
a nearby suburb IN Maryland An
other would be in Georgetown, a
third across the Potomac on the Vir-
ginia Heights at Fort Myer. At such
times, of course, the number of calls
would necessarily be limited"

Farmers to Operate
Cooperative Laundry
AericuIturists Organize Concern to
Do Their Washing
and Ironing.

ROCHESTER, MINI, Sept. III
The success of the cooperative
creamery and farmers laundry at
Chatfield has aroused the interest
of farmers residing near Byron, and
a movement has been started for the
organization of a similar concern at
that place.
The Byron farmers propose to go
their Chatfield friends one better,
however, and include in the co-opera =
tive plant a feed and grinding mill.
Byron has no creamery. but it is in
the center Of a prosperous dairying
community. 1t has been learned that
in two months over $500 went to the
railroad and commission houses for
cream shipments, which, it is being
argued, should be divided among the
farmers as well as the dividends of a
cooperative plant.

BY HASSAL SULLIVAN,

AS the end of the season approaches
the Giants and the Athletics are be-
ginning to look forward to the world S
series. Both teams have practically
nailed the pennants of their respect
i've leagues to their own flag poles.
Both have strengthened their lead by
playing aggressive, consistent ball, SO
a change in the remaining three weeks
of the season looks like an impossi-
bility.
Last week the Giants opened with
an eight game lead Starting on their
western trip, they beat Brooklyn on
Monday, and took three straight from
Pittsburg. Their winning streak was
broken, when they lost the second
game Of Saturdays double header,
and were beaten by Chicago Sunday.
They came back Monday, taking a
thirteen-inning game from the Cubs,
McGraW's Pitchers Good.
With the Giants pitchers working
we'll only a bad break Of luck and a
wonderful winning streak for the
Quakers could rout New York from
first place.
For McGraw, Mathewson, Tesreau
and Demaree are pitching unbeatable
ball Demaree is tied with Humph-
ries, of Chicago, for the lead OF the
leagues twirlers who have taken part
in twenty or more games. He is cred
tied with winning twentythree games
and losing three.

BATTING AVERAGES
OF QUAKER TEAM
Light Hitters, but Walters
and Fast Infield Bring
Success.

The Richmond team this year has
not been hitting the ball hard, so its
excellent showing has been due to the
pitching of Walters and the fast work
of the infield. Sixteen games have
been played on the home diamond, in
which the team made 102 hits, fifty
five of which they converted into
runs. This makes the batting average
of the team 1877.
Meyers and Sommers are the only
members OF the team who have been
hitting in the 800 class. Meyers's pace
is 1882, while Sommers has been hit
ting round .317. Supp is making a bid
for high average with a percentage
of .218.
