Mrs. Bishop will apparently en-
counter some extraordinary difficult
ties In bringing up her curiously
diverse family in the same home,
For instance, the little Eskimo is
used to the most intense cold. His
race has been accustomed to it for
uncounted generations.
In a hot climate an adult Eskimo
becomes prostrated and Is liable to
die. Will an Eskimo baby be able
to accustom himself to the Summer
climate of Chicago?
On the other hand. people from
Central Africa and the tropical re-
gions OF the earth require q great
deal Of warmth. Exposure of the
skin to the sun and air is necessary
to their existence, but they cannot
endure such exposure in northern
Winter. How will Mrs. Bishop be
able to look after the health Of her
Eskimo and her Hottentot baby in
the same nursery2

OF Mrs. Bishops experiments is to
remove the prejudices that exist
against race mixtures.

To this mixture We might add
strain OF Chinese, because that race
endures pain and hardship so calm
ly and philosophically
1t Is interesting to know that
new mixed race has been evolved in
the Hawaiian Islands to meet the
new conditions and Is said to be
giving splendid results. According
to high authority from the Islands.
this race consists Of seventy-five
parts Japanese, forty-five parts
Chinese and ten parts Anglo-Saxon.
1t also includes n smaller touch Of
Portuguese, Korean and Porto Rican,
with slight French and Spanish in
huences.
The new people are said to be
extremely handsome and well built.
They have a beautiful, rich dark
brown skin and fine eyes. They
meet all the requirements of eli
mate and industrial efficiency admir-
ably. The climate is hot and dis
inclines white man to labor. The
work required in the sugar fields
is severe and the full-blooded Haw-
allan was unwilling to do It, The
new mixed type does the work we'll
and enjoys good health.
Mrs. Bishop believes that her eu.
genic experiment will produce many
valuable results Of this kind and go
far toward realizing that universal
peace and brotherhood of man, for
which all good people hope.

to Adopt.

MV of Chicago, has decided to
&v@ have fifteen babies Of differ.
ent races in her house.
Her principal object is to show
that children OF the most diverse
races can live In harmony together.
She is very fond of children and 1t
will give her great pleasure to edu-
cate fifteen little ones.
Her pleasure will be increased by
the great variety of her family. II
she had fifteen little American chill
dren, all Of about the same size and
color, she might have some difficulty
In telling Johnnie from Willie. but
she will never have any trouble
about distinguishing her Eskimo
from her Patagonian protege.
She says that she hopes to prove
that children of all races can grow
equally high in the scale Of intellr
gence and that there Is no such
thing as racial inferiority.
Mrs. Bishop is a noted worker in
many lines OF social progress ana
reform. She is interested In woman
suffrage, temperance and club work.
At the time she was married she
was in charge of the National Tenn
perance Hospital, in Chicago.
AT present Mrs, Bishop and her
husband are occupying a handsome
suite of apartments at the fashion
able Chicago Beach Hotel. She Will,
of course, need very large house
for her children.
Mrs. Bishop has established three
cooperative homes In Chicagos s
South Side, where women employed
in stores may live with their chill
dren and enjoy all the comforts or
private homes.
"By my experience with the
babies said Mrs. Bishop In an In
terview, "T expect TO demonstrate
the utter foolishness OF race preju-
dice. 1t will be concrete and
happy example Of the brotherhood
OF man. / believe the plan Is abso-
lutely feasible. Chicago has brought
up fifteen different races with sue

10 bring up fifteen little people OF
different race types?

believe that the children in this
new home will In a measure take
the place Of the two little girls / lost
In infancy. I had planned so much
on their early training and later
education.
Il am a firm believer that chill
dren should be allowed to teach
themselves. For instance, when ouI

proposal, so we put up little teni
