CLEAR IT Up /!

Captain Of Detectives Arthur McDuffie has
been very properly reinstated, the investigation
of the attorney generals office into charges
against his competency and honesty having
failed to bring out evidence to support these
charges either before the grand jury or the civil
service commission. But the case is motor

The Advertiser, which inspired the charges
and has worked for months with detectives who
we're determined to Dust their chief, says that the
Scotch verdict Of mot proven" has been rem
dered No one but the Advertiser believes this;
il is to be doubted if the Advertiser believes it
The fact is that no real charges have ever been
brought against McDuffie. He was kept in the
dark for week even as to the nature of the .ac
cusations against him; finally, under pressure,
the Investigators gave his attorney bare out

concerning his alleged malfeasance; now, after
the reinstatement, there is published this morn

FIELD
AGAIN URGES AN
AUDITING BUREAU

H. Gooding Field, auditor and ex-
pert accountant for the Hawaii probe
commission, is in Honolulu for
short rest after soma strenuous
months chasing down Hawaii county
malefactors through the evidence of
municipal figures and bringing the
audit up to date. Field says that the
magnitude Of the work is such that he
will require considerable additional
time to straighten out the tangled &C
counts. 81
Every days work on the Hawaii
county books furnishes another proof
of my. statement many months ago
that the territory needs bureau Of
audit which will operate in coopera-
ton with the counties" said Field this
morning. The men who have gone
wrong have been tempted beyond

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin:
Sir: The following extract from
an article entitled The Worlds Good
Samaritan" in the November Issue
of The Worlds Work, which refers
to the aid given to the sufferers of
the 19l1-12 famine in China. may
prove interesting and gratifying to
many Of your readers. 49,.

aid would be expected from the

the drama combined in what was said to be
moral crusade, but that was actually financial
crusade. And now the churches have followed
suit. Nothing is too private for public discus
sion, no audience too young for admission and
participation, no vital fact too explosive for reck
less handling Upon every side we see gross
familiarity at it's deadly work. Here in San
Francisco We are about to have what its promot-
ers call Purity Sunday. Countless sermons
will be preached to audiences of young men and
young women, and with their own sex relation
ships as topic. Does any one with sane
knowledge of human nature suppose that even
the most exquisite delicaey can nentralize the
inevitable poison of those sermons? Is it not
well known to even the tyro in such matters that
here at least the most fatal and Irresistible of all
ferces is that of suggestion, and that reason and
prudence struggle in vain against it, The cure.
for this sort Of evil is reticence and not publicity
mystery and not familiarity, the home and not
the pulpit the mother and not the schooIteacller.
TO err in such a matter as this is to poison the
rising generation Indeed if we are to credit the
hysterical exaggerations of the women's clubs
the rising generation is already poisoned by a.
familiarity that presents experiment as a pleas
ing adventure in wellknown paths. E Il I,
Therefore it is time that We called a halt to
the sex fanatics. They have been at their work
for some years past, and now the air is becoming
unbreathable Every field of publicity has been
invaded. They have almost persuaded us that
sex is the one thing worth thinking about, and
worth talking about The results are sufficient
" evil upon matured minds that have learned to
government themselves. Upon immature minds
to whom sell. government has hardly occurred it
has been little short of disastrous. Every sacred
mystery Of life has been cheapened, coarsened,
plofaned. All the protective wells of mystery
and sanctity have been broken down, and in their
place We are offered statistics, hospital reports,
and iod0form. 1t is these sex fanatics that are
largely responsible for the juvenile immortality
of the day 1t is the sex newspaper the sex
drama, the sex novel, the sex refofmer, and the
sex pulpit that have created it And it has been
nourished by the apathy and the neglect of par
ents who are quite content that the policewoman
and the delinquency court shall do,the work that
has been so shamelessly neglected by themselves
"Let us hope that we are nearly at the end of
this particular epoch lest some worse thing be-
fall us. 1t is bad enough that for years past our
young people should have been forced to live in
an atmosphere of public discussion comparable
only with that of an open sewer. Things will
have come to a pretty pass if we must now forbid
our children to 60 either to school or to church
for fear of the moral contamination that must
ensuc.

TIE NEW SEX CRUSADE

1T seems that Kansas City IS up in arms,
figuratiyely speaking, against a wave of immor-
atty that threatens to engulf the youth of the
city There are horrible stories of juvenile ex5
ccsses, and the women's clubs are formulating
their demands and doing all the other things

ners and to restore the Garden of Eden. But as
the guilty young people in Kansas City do not
belong to the wage-earning classes it is evident
that we must go farther afield for remedy No
one seems to have suggested the abolition of the
automobile or the extinction of human nature, so
there seems nothing for it but the passing of a
curfew law and general closing of the streets
to young people after certain hour This is
precisely what Kansas City is proposing to do
The women and the preachers demand it, SO that
obviously there is nothing more to be said.
There will be no disposition anywhere to
treat terrible evil with levity or even with in
difference And it is a terrible evil San Fran
cisco has had her own experiences and it is quite
easy to believe that other cities are similarly sit
uated. But unfortunately there is a disposition
to resor to snap remedies and to treat the results
rather than the causes Nothing is so fatally
easy as to pass law. There is no more popular
narcotic for an uneasy public conscience. But
narcotics are not cures, and Kansas City will be
likely to find that policecohtrol is the worst pos
sible substitute for parental influences, and that
even q curfew law cannot take the place of those
elementary duties that can be performed in the
home and nowhere but the home
"But the neglect of parental duties is by no
means the only cause for the apparent extinction

The barriers Of morality and convention are by
no means so distinct as we like to suppose. Usu-
ally they supplement each other. During the
last few years we have seen the almost complete
destruction of those reticences upon sex matters
that doubtless had their own attendant evils, but
that did actually prevent far more evils than
they caused. What We call plain speaking be-
came vogue and a fashion. Literature and

THE GARDEN
IN MIDSUMMER

Back in the cool peace of April a
back yard garden seemed both eco
nomic and poetic. With a family
of sturdy corn, beans and potatoes,
one has some independence in deal
ing with the marketman. The man
who raises vegetables successfully
does not often pay dues to the l.
w. W.
Handling the hoe on a fresh
spring day is pastime to the man
tired of tinsel of theatres and
clamor of the ball grounds. He
dreams of Mother Natures kind
heart freely returning treasures OF
wholesome food for little labor
and seed.
This imaginative background has
appealed TO romantic hearts from
Horace and Cicero down.
Amid the fierce heats of July you
aren't quite so sure Of Mother Ma
lures good will. The vegetables
seem to find the soil about as ster-
lie as Labrador, while weeds grow
with tropical luXuriance and the
persistence of original sin.
Only with the most patient Guilt
walton can your plants acquire a
foot hole. Meanwhile the weeds
grow again after being uprooted, II
they are merely left on top of the
ground.
The man who frets because his
motor fell down two or three times
an hour rarely likes gardening, nor
can he wait for the fish to bite.
Another type of personality, how
ever, finds that the woods and fields
and streams are full Of interesting
voices that beguile the time while
the trout are accommodating his
flies. .-.--
So in the garden. One man
saves fret of spirit by paying his
marketman to deal with the inani-
mate perversity of weeds. But an
other knows that centuries of gar
den practice have left behind
treasure of experience sufficient
to deal with these problems. To
beat out the selfish pigsweed or the
ruthless cutworm through wisdom
and research is like sharing an old,
Uise and pamy trout.
