MY CREED

l believe that the country, which God made, is more beautiful than the city which man made; that life out of doors and in touch with the earth is the natural life of man. I believe that work is work wherev- CT We find it, but thaat work with Nature is more inspiring than work with the most intricate machinery. l believe that the dignity of labor depends on not what you do, but how you do it; that opportunity comes to q boy on the farm as oft en as to boy in the city; that life is larger and happier on the farm than in the town; that my sue cess depends not upon my loea ion, but upon myself-not upon my dreams. but upon what 1 actually do not upon luck, but pluck. l be- Ieve in working when you work, and in playing when you play, and in giving and demanding square deal in every act of life.

The robbers were doing their work
strictly according to the rules. Armed
with a pistol they waited for Mr..

help.
Hold up your hands" said one Of
the robbers in a gruff voice. Keep

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

But Mr.. Young smashed the robber
in the eye, a clear violation Of the
ethics of the game. Then he seized
the pistol with one hand and mauled
the poor holdup man until he let

Disguised with his conduct, the

LONDON, Sept. 27.-Never crossed
in her life before, Lady SaclSville, who
recently established her right after a
sensational suit to q major portion
of the immense fortune OF Sir John
Murray Scott, to-day faces being
baked in her highest ambition.
Her only daughter, Miss Victoria
SaclSville- West, talented and beauti-
full. heir to her mothers millions. for
whom the ambitious mother had
planned a marriage to a man with a
noble name, has decided to become
the bride of commoner
Her engagement to Harold Nichol-
son, youngest son OF Sir Arthur Mich

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 It a brilliant
affair at any cost.
The marriage is one which a dow
erless debutante OF no particular fam
lily 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
a girl in her teens in Washington
when her father was British Ambas-

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
schuolmen on the subject, judging
from reports ctived 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, the
ideas range from a detailed plan Of
sex instruction beginning in the eie-
mentary schools to a determined op-
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
CD to enlisted men in the army and
navy, where the need for II is urgent
CS) to college students both men and
women; 90 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. DIR. Hugh Cabot,
n 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-
tension Of the sex instinct is the
function of the public school, though
we are far from such a realization
day" Other members of the
American Federation OF Sex Hygiene
including former President Eliot, OF
Harvard, who is the head OF the or
ganization, mold equally positive
views OF the need for sex instruction
