planned a marriage to a man with a
noble name, has decided to become
the bride of commoner.

son, youngest son of Sir Arthur Mich
olson, the House of Commons Clerk.
has been announced. and so complete
has her victory over her mother been
that Lady Sackville has now taken
charge OF the wedding preparations,
as she intends to make il a brilliant
affair at any cost
The marriage is one which a dow
erless debutante of no particular fam
ily connections would consider brill
liant and Lady Sackville fought
against it with all the tenacity and
force Of her character.
What that force is can be esti-
mated when 1t is remembered that as
when her father was British Ambas-
sador she conceived the plan Of mar
rying her first cousin and then secur-
ing him and herself in the possession
of her fathers title and estates by
exposing her own mothers past life
as a Spanish dancer who had not the
slightest bond TO the father OF her
children and consequently no claim

, to a friend that she was now arriv-

which was to make her daughter a
great heiress and then arrange a bril-
liant marriage.

Routs Pair After Giving Them
Good Pounding Fires as

CHICAGO, Sept. 27.-John Young,
OF No. 3716 North Paulina street, Is
a man with no regard whatever for
the prophecies. He does not play
according to Hoyle. Tonight he out
ragged every rule in the book for
the guidance of highway robbers by
shamefully beating and maltreating
two poor holdup men.
And he crowned his infamy by TAX

ANONYMOUSLY down an alley and then
Sticking the police on them.
The robbers were doing their work
strictly according to the rules. Armed
with a pistol they waited for Mr.
Young near No. 529 West Garfield
boulevard, where II is dark and lone
ly. and he had no chance to get
help.
Hold up your hands" said one OF
the robbers In a gruff voice. "Keer
quiet now or I'll blow your block

All unsuspectingly the robber then
trusted himself within reach OF Mr.
Young, never dreaming that the VIC

But Mr.. Young smashed the robbeI

the poor holdup man until he lei

Disguised with his conduct, the

So violent and ungentlemanly was
Mr. Young's conduct that the pool

SEX HY G|ENE
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 II comes to the question OF what
part the public school shall play, the
ideas range from a detailed plan OF
sex instruction beginning in the ele-
mentdry schools to a 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: a.
To parents, by means of lectures;
(2) TO enlisted men in the army and
navy, where the need for II is urgent
90 to college students, both men and
women; a. to young people in Y. NJ.
c. AS and similar associations. DR..
Ballet considers sex instruction to
couese 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
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 q
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
including former President Eliot, Of
Harvard, who Is the head of the or
ganization, hOld equally positive
views of the need for sex instruction
