This is the law OF the Yukon.
And ever she makes IL plain.
That surely the weak shall perish
And only the fit remain"

fact that not only should babies he

Of reproduction on the part Of people
whose physical condition, or inher-
lance, makes the question of healthy

This is one of the solution offered
by Dr. Mabel Ulrlch Of Minneapolis

Christian association assembly hall
yesterday forenoon.
THE great principle of the science
Of eugenics," said DR.. Clrich, lis the
study Of all influences that will i'm

We are facing today the condition that
all civilizations have faced in times
past-the multiplication of the unfit IN
Il startlingly larger proportion than the

with an awakened self consciousness
that demands to know why, that seeks
a remedy for the mediocre the crimi-
nal, the feeble minded
In England the feeble minded are
increasing twice as fast as tho normal
population and while the ratio has not
reached that proportion In this coun-
try there is serious reason for active
measures TO decrease the number of
feeble minded, sub-normal children
born every year.
The study OF eugenics is STILL prac-
tically. in it's infancy; but q number of
definite facts have been established.
We know that feeble mindedness is
a lack Of positive factors, or determin-
ate factors in the germ plasm, and

WILSON AND THE NAVY

By his wise and patriotic support Of
three battleship program, President
Wilson will command the approval Of
the great bulk Of the American peo-
pie, Irrespective Of party-except, Of
course, the Socialists, who for reasons
best Known 10 themselves, steadily
oppose every policy or proposal that
seems to make for the ability Of the
government to enforce law and order
and maintain our political and social
fabric against foreign or revolutionary
assault
