BARES SOCIAL EVIL
IN TALK IN SLUMS
Illinois Suffragist Tells of Vice
AIIurementS, and Urges Sys-
tematic Fight.
Raps Women of Culture for
the Silk Hose Displays
ON Streets.

Speaking in the slums of Washington
last Monday night, Mrs. Jessie Hardy
Stubs of Illinois, chief of the publicity
division of the congressional committee
of the National Woman Suffrage associa-
ton, said women of the underworld, by
following in the footsteps of vice are able
to make from SIS to $500 week.
Such prospect, " continued Mrs.
Stubbs, is a great temptation to the poor
girls compelled to toll long hours in
sweat shops at So, 81 and S. a week"
Mrs. Stubs said: "Now that we have
taken the question of prostitution out Of
the secret hiding places, and are deter
mined to let the light play upon it, we
may count ourselves on the lower rungs
of the ladder Of its solution.
"The causes which underlie its presence
among us are tourfold; economic, social
pathologic and false sex teachings
When it is known that a large percentage
Of misguided young women who enter
this trade come from the ranks of the
poorly paid its economic aspects stare
us in the face.
THE lack Of social opportunity by a
large group, the false standards of coll
duct and dress established by the para
site class and the desire to obtain the
seeming comforts without the sweat Of
the brow-these constitute a social prob
lem.
How shall we make it plain to women
Of culture and refinement that deep
responsibility rests upon them in the
wearing Of extravagant clothing The
deadly influence Of even a pair of silk
stockings displayed upon the streets of
our cities is contributory negligence.
The appalling figures given out by
our correctional institutions should stir
us to action.
Our double standard of morals which
winks at Is 600, 900 visits made by men
in a single year in the city Of New York
to houses Of prostitution wherein we're
some $4,000 women, speaks for itself.
This fearful trade with its still more

in session intermittently for the past
several months, took another adjourn

day About forty of the sixty claims
have been taken up and it is probable
the testimony of claimants for the plaiu-

the plaintiffs in the actions, their coun-
sci will submit large amount of docu-
mentary evidence and expert testimony
as to rainfall and conditions during the

addressed the teachers upon the "Psychol-
ogy OF Attention" Psychology in n broad
sense Is a study OF life In the narrow sense
psychology is how the mind behaves. Mind
and body are one and the whole life princi-
pie we term the soul. There Is n physical
side to attention rs well rs q mental side,
Powers OF attention are largely based upon
the physical condition. Teachers can not
create brains, but 1t is their duty to deyel-
ope them.

ANNUAL COUNTY
TEACHERS MEET
I [BY Leona Winter. Secretary

y
The annual County Teachers Institute
opened Monday morning with Dr.. Byron
King, of Pittsburg, Pa, and Dr. Lowden,
of the O. 5. T., as instructors. The
first session was called to order by Presi-
dent Krugh After singing by the insti-
tute, led by Mrs. LeFever, the devotional
exercises were led by Rev. Lance.
Music by institute
Prof. Lowden addressed the teachers
upon the Personality of the Teacher.
Greatest thing in the world is man, and
the greatest thing in man is personality.
The chief factor for influential environ
ment in school is the personality of the
teacher By personality we mean the
sum total of all the life of the person.
External and internal conditions are
part of personality. Itis worth while to
cultivate personality for the sake OF
yourself and those about you.
After a short intermission DR.. King
addressed the teachers. Each teacher
should get the spirit of helpfulness. Ask
the children S help in making the school
room a kingdom beautiful. Set them to
help keep the school room clean and sur
roundings pleasant. Make the little
things count The greatest poet in the
world is the one who makes the lowest
things beautiful After Dr. Kings talk

Afternoon Session

After singing by the institute the teach-
ers listened to Dr. Lowden sadress upon
Rivers on the Standpoint of Civiliza-
ton. There is nothing more impor-
tant than the preparation of the lessons
you teach. He gave several methods of
presenting some of the interesting facts
about river. In the primary grades
the river may be taught in a concrete
way. There are many advantages in the
use of the sand table in the study of river
systems and mountains. We, in this
country, have not yet come to appreciate
the rivers. Go back to the beginning
of civilization. Ancient civilization be-
gan along the Euphrates and Tigress
rivers. The rivers and rock-ribbed hills
attest to the fact that the human soul is
immortal, and it should be taught i'll a
logical way.
Dr.. King then talked to the teachers
concerning the hea1h of the teacher and
pupils Learn to keep well and be
ready for work Teach health, plenty of
fresh air and pure water are essentials
for good health. When you walk well
you breathe we'll There is nothing so
vital as fresh air Health is a priceless
jewel.
