excellent contributory negligence and cially and emphatically commend the stand taken by the governor of the state in considering that desertion is as serious a crime as grand larceny. It is grand larceny at least It is grand larceny upon the community when a man fails to live up to his family responsibilities and attempts to leave them behind l am glad, therefore. to be informed that eX- tradition papers will be issued for an Arizona deserter discovered in any part of the United States. I even believe that the occasional offer Uf reward in peculiarly vicious cases (Where large numbers of children are involVed) or previous brutality or assertion before the birth of a child) might be desirable in arousing the zeal of police officers in other cities, if this could be afforded by the state. We should do everything to make this crime appear as detestable as any of the more infamous.
 The probation staff is already in teTested in the proposition to pay or din2ry wages to the families of short term offenders, particularly those convicted of non-support or de- sertion or contributary negligence as a father

This would insure the getting of the right kind of standards, would even more publicly draw attention to the excellent work now done and would also insure the getting of the right kind of men in the state to take charge of the work
 If the question of a state board of charities is ever taken up, this function may be assumed by it. It should not be assigned to the board of control because the problems of that board are of an entirely different character and the two will not blend. What is finally required is body whose secretary will be constantly checking up upon the placed out children and the supervision over them and who shall assume custody of children and place them out him self when this is required and has been neglected.
 Section 2, the Feeble Minded.
 No provision has as yet been made for the commitment or care of feeble minded children in this state l note Nltli dDpIbNdI tlldl chapter 0O or the statutes of the regular session and chapter of the extra session make apparently adequate provision for the special instruction of the deaf, dumb and blind-that is, providing the coun- ties carry out the intent of these statutes.
 But nowhere is there provision for the feeble minded and this is a far more difficult problem than the other.
 You say there are not the feeble minded? I am compelled to say most respectfully that you are entirely mistaken. It is true you do not see drivelling idiots walking down your main streets. but there is the more subtitle concealed feeble mndedness which is far more difficult to handle.
 Tn your state hospital here there are two feeble minded girls, one cf high grade, housed with insane women They are drinking in the yileness, even if the vileness of un- balanced minds, of these women. The Associated Charities workers report having dealt with five or six who distinctly suspected of feeble mind edness. Tn looking over the records of the juvenile court of this county I have observed evidences pointing towards high grade feeble minded ness in some of the children commit

from time to time take further steps in anticipation.
 T am not at all sure but that the Women's organizations of the city should not unite in the formation of a consumers league so that they would feel both their responsibility and power as purchasers in the city and educate their own backward membership to a proper appreciation of the reasonable needs and rights of those who serve in our mercantile establishments And l know the Hb- eral spirit with which certain pro- prietors' would take the lead when they saw enough public opinion be- hind the movement"
 Dealing with juvenile dependents, delinquents, contributory negligence, non-support and care of the feeble minded he continues, dividing the subjects into sections:
 Section 1, Being Placing Out.
 T have gone over the statutes upon this subject and their admins tration in this county
 As to the statutes, I am firmly of the opinion that whether Chapter 63 of the statutes of the extra session be amended or not that public opinion insist that it be not permissive for any one, public official or private society to place a child in the home Of family of an opposite religious faith from it's parents.
 Chapter 63, section 10 reads purely as follows: As far as possible in families of the same religious belief"
 The four broad lines of cleavage, Catholic Protestant Jewish and Nor mon must be distinctly recognized or the whole juvenile court and proDa- tion system will be involved in end less public clamor and disrepute will come to it There should be no man ner of discretion left in this matter.
 Indeed the whole question of placing out requires a further statute which shall require that any agency or person placing out children in families with adoption in view or not, shall conform to certain requirements and be put under the supervision cf special non paid placing out com mission, with eventually a paid sec retary who himself may be further charged with the duty of assuming the function in counties which have no other agency through which to work Such a development may well be preceded by the organization of a private state child placing society,

ted to the industrial school, particu- iarly in the case of one or two cases of young girls where moral inn becility appeared to be indicated. doubt not but that an examination of the industrial school by a specialist like Dr. Fernald or pr Never would indicate many more Now, excellent as the regime of the industrial school may be, it cannot perform two jobs m one department at the same time. It can straighten out the kinks in the fairly normal boy or girl who is lncorrigible or is suffering from the lack of parental control, but if re- quires separate department away from the other and in charge of a trained man in order to workout the very special individual treatment re- quired for the feeble minded of all grades. Some of you have doubtless seen one of the model institutions of this kind IL means as you know, improvement and discharge for some. permanent custodial care for others. and serious considerations ask only for a serious consideration-of sterilization of some
 T warn you most emphaticauy to take hold of this fundamental prob lem You are leaving today all over this state feeble minded girls To be- come the prey of their passions, and of feeble minded boys to marry. and not only are you blasting al least the pathetic little of strength among the girls, those who should receive the tenderest care of the state. but you are breeding up more feeble mindedness to poison.
 My proposition may be thus sum- marked:
 T. Creation of a separate and isolated feeble minded department in the industrial school
 -. In the well constituted juvenile courts in the state, provision for thorough physical examination of every child brought into court on a delinquency charge, and the calling in of the services of the experts of the feeble minded department, whenever required, for decision.
 The services of the experts to be also extended to private organiza- tions such as Associated Charities who will often find children who have not yet come to the purview of 9 juvenile court. but whose mental condition and conduct may seem to require analysis. Indeed there are many problems of suggestion to be worked out with both children and adults who are not feeble minded but obstinate and twisted in their think ing, who have to be induced to do things they oppose. There is there fore the greatest need of having at the services of such organizations the kind of psychiatric expert who would necessarily have to be placed in charge of an institution or de- partment for the feeble minded.
 Let me give you an illustration of what I mean by this extensive service of a specialist in making sug- gcstions for family treatment. I re- call a family of patriarchal type in which the home conditions were very had. IL consiste dof mother, father and a brood of children, two of whom, brother and sister had grown up and married. Upon the inducement of their mother these two new families had taken up their quarters in the same house-each new family already possessed one baby. one baby was anacmic and stunted because it's mother part of the old stock) had

under the influence of her mother committed some foolish indiscretions during pregnancy The other was not of this old family tree but of bet ter stock was losing much of her early bringing up and the baby was receiving the most careless of treat ment Prolonged efforts exerted upon the whole family group has only resulted in inducing this fam fly colony to move into slightly larger quarters.
 Finally at committee meeting a pschiatrist was called in for advice and after prolonged discussion this plan was worked out:
 T. To let the old family alone for the time, but fight to induce the two yolng families to move away from the dreadfully hampering environ ment
 -. How to do this? Why work by suggestion upon the husband in the one case, the wife in the other, who had married into the family. Get each one alone and show by fig ure on their income just how good a house each family might occupy and how comfortably they could get on and still even help in financial way the old czarina of a mother who Was DrOfiting from the presence of the young families Accidentally but in tentionally, take one and then the other to see the kind of house which each could occupy.
 "3 By starting with the two out siders, you give momentum to the idea before it begins to strike the op- position of those related by blood to the czarina.
 4 When you have carried them along fairly well and have become allies then the three of you attack the husband and wife who do belong to the old stock Give them time and let the idea sink in and still keep everlastingly pounding at it.
 ,. When they have been won over see that the moving is actually accom- plished when the czarina is tempo rarily away from her house, but be prepared to greet her on her return and let her have her first fight with you The angrier she is. the better t will be: for the energy she eX- bends in venting her indignation upon you will mean that she will have less to spend upon her children, who have moved away when she sees them. Every sort of mental problem which no juvenile court even con siders comes up to private Organiza- tion working with families. There was no evidence which would be ac- CeBted even in a Juvenile court which would give it d right to interfere, but nevertheless there was the moral re- sponsbHity present of getting these two young families away from the immediate blighting influence of this weakening family environment
 Do not any of you remark that this is interesting, but that you do not have that kind of problem here. Not identically the same perhaps, but let me tell you most emphatically that you do have the same kind. I came to Arizona prepared to find out that your problems here were special, that some of the kind I knew you did not have. I have seen and heard enough to know you have all of the problems I know and in addition your especially accentuated tubercu- Iosis problem.

The absence of such a statute in the legislation Of every sState is blot upon civilization. I trust that Arizona will join the comparatively few states which have progressed this far from barbarism. Barbarlsm when one considers the instances where aged parents who could be maintained at little sacrifice by their own children are sent to coun- ty institutions.

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-What's the
matter with Yale? If someone will
kindly drop into New Haven and wills.
per the answer to this question they
might have a monument erected to
them, if at the same time solution OF
the problem was furnished.
Yale staggered through to the finish
of the sporting year with a clean slate
said slate being one of defeats In foot
ball, rowing and baseball, the three
leading sports, the Blue cracked and
was walloped by Harvard. They are
building an immense stadium for Yale
to play her football games in. 1t will
seat $4,000 persons, but the new bowl"
isn't going to win games, so far as
anyone has been able to figure.
The disaster which befell the Yale
navy is well remembered. Swinging
away on the English stroke with Eng
lish equipment, Yale was swept from
the river by the Crimson oarsmen.
Then Harvard won the deciding base
ball game from the crack Yale nine
in New York by score of 6 to 5. After
rousing hopes to high pitch by hold
ing Princeton to tie on the gridiron,
the Blue crumpled before Harvard and

a rumor that Yale won a chess tour

Long Time Since Victory.
Taking a look backward, it may be |
observed that it has been some tim,
since Yale kicked through with very
much to crow over In 1907 the Blue
defeated Harvard in the boat race.
That was the last, as the Crimson shell
has now showed the way to the line
for six consecutive years. Yale hasn't
won a football game from Harvard
since 1909 The Blue kicked through
hat year with an to victory. Then

LAST year Harvard won 20 to and |

CHAMPAIGN, H., Dec. 13-An en-
phatic difference of opinion between
| the highest disease authorities in two
neighboring states has been disclosed
in interviews given the United Press
by DR.. l.. M. Holm, state bacteriologist
of Michigan, and Prof. Clyde Ross
Newell, bacteriologist of the Univer-
sity of Illinois. Dr. Holm scouts all
the old ideas and declares quarantine
causes more deaths than it prevents
by the dread of unsavory publicity and
loss of work it spreads among timid
people. Prof Newell insists that the
diseases must be confined and well
persons kept away from those infected
The views of Dr. Holm are the most
radical yet expressed by such an au-
thority
Harm from Quarantine.
Quarantine does more harm than
good" he says. "In my laboratory
there are small pox, scarlet fever,
diptheria and many other germs. Why
not quarantine the laboratory? The
germs are free to fly about and spread
disease if such thing is possible,
and the laboratory is not quarantined
simply because science knows that
such thing is not possible. If pre-
cautions are taken there is no reason
70 mr. nf for, in
which disease appears should not go
about their work. Instead of depriving |
them of income and making them de |
pendent on the community, it would be |
cheaper for the city to employ nurses
@ care for patients and superintend
disease suppression. With compe-
ent person in the sick room there is
10 reason why any other person should
contract the disease That quarantine
Ices add to the death toll of the sup
osedly contagious diseases l know
rom investigation. Parents, whose
hildr0n are seized with disease,
trough fear of being shut off from
ociety hesitate to call a physician, ]
nd deaths occur before an anti-toxin
an be administered. The anti-toxin
ould do the work. In such states as
massachusetts,, where the state board
health advocates the burning of
llphur candles and other disenfec-
nts the state physicians in their own
inds are convinced it is all hum
lg, but permit the fumigations to sat
fly the public mind"
Precaution, says DR.. Holm, will
I've the problem. at is personal
intact that spreads disease. The sin
e kiss from the lips of a diptheria
tient or a tuberculosis patient can
read more disease and death than
ssing through a hundred rooms
lere persons are sick"
Newell Makes Reply.
It's the weaker persons, those
rking in laboratories and passing
'ough sick rooms without fear of
ntagion," replies Prof. Newell, "if
e is we'll"
Its the weaker persons, those
ose systems have a vulnerable point,
akened and sluggish by failure of
bodily functions-those are the
IS who acquire disease And they
be susceptible whether by kissing
diseased person or by breathing
foul air of the sick room.
f you could cork up all these germs
n of course there'd be no danger
you can't. The only sane thing
10 is to remove the healthy persons
leave the patients at home to be
tied, or remove the sick persons
leave the rest of the family, flood
house with fresh air, and drive out
germs. But when you take away
patients you are obliged to put
n somewhere-which brings us to
pest house question.
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1913-12-13

that the danger does not exist in the
immediate vicinity of the disease is
to deny the existence of the diseases
and the possibility of contracting
them. All of which is contrary to ex-
perience"
