M. Engle officiating. She died at
the home of her parents where she

four children living, she was the
Oldest. she leaves behind her par
ents. two sisters and brother. Her
kindness, her sympathy and her
earnest life in the home will long
remain as a pleasant memory to the
family bereft of one who had the
affection of all.
To those who felt the touch OF
her outer life, she was known to
hold a high regard for the right.
But to those who felt her inner life
and who knew her best, her walk
was one Of faith in God. She VIII
be missed greatly by those who
have hard to part with one dearly
loved. Just in her bloom, the life
was snatched away and the light
went out.

Obituary.

Abraham M. Engle was born In
Lancaster county, Pa, August 2S'
1881, and died at the family home
near Moonlight, Kansas, Thursday,
March IA, 1918, aged 81 years, D
months and 16 days. With his de-
cease there remains but one OF the
family of twelve of which he was
a member-Mrs. Anna Musser Shirk
of Sedgwick, Kansas.
In 1854 he was united in mar
riage to barbara Niesley who SUR
wives him. OF the twelve children
resulting from this union seven re-
main: Henry s., of Parsons, Wyo.;
Jesse N, of Emporia, Kan; John
b., of Philadelphia, Pa, and Mrs.
Hannah Bert, Mrs. Elizabeth Kelley,
Mrs. Sarah Burkholder and Miss
Alice, all of Dickinson county. They
were all present at the funeral.
There are 20 grandchildren and IL
great grandchildren now living.
The deceased was a brother Of
the late Bishop Jesse Engle and was
an influential member of the River
Brethren colony that came to this
county from Pennsylvania just thir-
ty-four years ago this month. For
over half a century he served the
church of his choice faithfully in the
office of deacon with an unwaver-
ing fidelity to the doctrine and
traditions of these simple-mannered
and industrious people. He was
well and favorably known through
out the church, both in the United
States and in Canada.
The large attendance of people
gathered from great distances at the
Bethel church Tuesday, in face of
the incIement weather, bore testi-
mony to the esteem with which he
was regarded. The services were
conducted by Elder NJ. G. Engle,
Rev. VIM. Page and Rev. NJ. i. Hoff-
man, who preached the sermon. The
tributes by these speakers and the

ing recent weeks and for many years
before. we're fitting and impressive.
Every act Of his life bore definite
relation to his religious principles.
He possessed striking native intelli-
genee and was a born student; he
was an omnivorous reader and in

sage Of his community; he was given
to experimentation and demonstrat-

Sir William Crookes.

London, Dec. 6.--The recent election
of Sir William Croolxes as president of
the Royal society-the highest honor
that can come to a British scientist
was all that remained to complete the
story of a we1l-earned reward.
Sir Williams star first appeared
above the horizon as far back as 1861,
when he was enabled to announce the
discovery of thallium, new element
In the domain of pure science he has
also added much to the worlds knowl-
edge of X and other rays. His was the
suggestion that what called "ele-
ments" may really be compounds de-
rived by gradual condensation from
some more primitive material: for
which he suggested the name Pro

Applied" science is in his debt; for
he added greatly to the knowledge Of
dyeing and calico printing, artificial
manures, and the disposal of sewage.
Further than this, he is one of the
great champions of Spiritualism He
was knighted In 1897; he holds the
Royal. Dayy and Copley medals of the
Royal society: while scientific socie-
ties and institutions in many parts OF
the world have showered rewards up

AGAINST SEX HYGIENE TEACHING
Principals of Various Schools Express Their Views on
Topic Which Has Assumed Nation Wide Impor
tance; What They Say of Conditions and What Some
Other Schools Are Doing

If the study OF sex hygiene were pro-
posed for the public schools, to be
studied systematically, much like
arithmetic for instance; if the advisa-
bility of teaching the subject in the
public schools at all were submitted to
you for a referendum vote, would you
cast your ballot for the affirmative or
for the negative?
Negatives Would Win.
Judging from the replies THE TIMES
received in interviews with educators
in the public schools in Hammond, the
negatives would win by a unanimous
vote. provided the question were sub
mitted with present conditions in view.

preparation of the teachers, and the

them 1t is no longer a question as to
whether it should be taught but rather
