TRAINING THE YOUNG WOMAN

All are agreed that young women should be
trained in producing articles of diet, dress and
home decoration; but we have not been quite 50
quick to see the Importance Of training in spend
ing. Our women do the greater part Of the
household buying, and they have to do it with
ont any training. Perhaps this is the most diff
ficult matter that has to be adjusted in begin
ming married life.
In schools and homes of Britain, Belgium,
France and Switzerland. this training for scien-
tific household expenditure is given to the Young
women. 1t results in greater happiness and eff
ficiCncy in the home
One of our greatest needs is the formation of
a family financial consciousness. Girls should
be trained to make up just and welI-balanced
family budget. This training should reconcile
their views and wishes with the condition of the
home resources. Foreign girls are trained to
apportiOn the family income among the various
necessities, to purchase the most suitable ar
ticles in the different classes, and to get dol
lars worth for a dollar j.
The result of this training is ability to rccog-
nize and choose the necessities before the luxur-
les, and to stay within the allowance The girls
dress more simply and suitably, and the glaring
defects in costume too frequently seen in our
country are not often seen abroad. The same
principle determines the table supplies and the
home decorations.
Another result of this training in economical
expenditure is it's tendency to foster a spirit of
true democracy. The daughter of the richest
and most aristoeratic people takes her place be-
side the daughter of the poor, wearing the same
cap and apron and producing tn same articles
of dress and diet She may be called later to
preside over a more pretentious home, but the
use of similar home equipment and material is
still an equalizing factor
Again this training in values gives the young
woman highly developed ethical sense. She
learns to obey as step in learning to command,
and she Yields obedience with the same show of
respect that she will require in others In these
things she learns to distinguish between the es-
sentials and incidentals, and to discern the de-
gree of respect with which her commands are
obeyed.
The difference in training between the for
eign girls and ours may be indicated by the diff
ference in the terms we use to designate the kind
of training: We teach our girls domestic sci
ence and art foreigners teach theirs house craft

DOES THE DEPARTMENT IN
DORSE IT? - ,-

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,
Sir: Following up DR.. Wilcox's
very able and timely article in your
paper recently on the subject Of
engenics, / would like to ask some
questions about a publication called
the Hawaii Educational Review. /
would like to know when, if ever, the
people of Hawaii or their represen-
tatives decided that eugenics in its
most absurd and repulsiye form was
a doctrine to be taught by the depart
ment of public instruction. In the
monthly sheet referred to, published,
as it says, "by the Department Of
Public instruction and the Extension
Department of the College of Ha-
waii," and given the widest kind of
circulation among parents and chill.
dren, is appearing a series of articles
of most outrageous character. ]
would like to cite a few extracts.
Introducing an argument for the
elimination of the unfit, there is the
following: .-.<..
who are the Unfit? ........
AS used by eugenists, at the, pres.
ent time, the Unfit are those men and
women who are incapable of provid-
6ng themselves with food and shelter.
under favorable conditions. ~ . ".
For further definition, study the
chart fellow; and, look about you.
This preposterous definition leads
to Appealing conclusions. It makes
a successful robber quite as fit as An
drew Carnegie a., calls the Rarents
of Abraham Lincoln unfit and IN the
invitation to look about you" in
vites us all, children included, to size
one another up with a view to judg-
ing fitness for parentage apparently
solely by standard of wealth. =:
The article is by a professor in
local school, supposedly Christian.
With all the power of one-sided stat
istics, he cites the WORKOUT Jukes
argument with more than an intima-
ticn that all would have been very
fine if the mother had died before
she became a mother" Are We pre-
pared to have our children taught
to look about them and apply this
monstrcus doctrine?
Here are some more statements
from this article circulated by our
schools and among our schools:
THE most intelligent fathers and
mothers of today-those who feel the
responsibility. of bringing conscious
ness to human flesh, are limiting the
number of children in their families.
only the Unfit reproduce their
kind without limit. And they do this
simply because they lack the intelli-
gence to feel their responsibility"
The question is, who gave the de-
partment of public instruction of the
territory of Hawaii authority to teach
this kind of stuff? There is a lot
more Of 1t. Read this:
There never was a family line so
strong but that at some time in its
history, in some way, individual
members became degenerate. And
what has come to individuals of 9th
er lines will come to your line, to my
line
(which kind of elimination for
these unfortunate ones of yoAr line
do you prefer-elimination by sci
ence, or by natural laws? There is
no escape from choice. Which
shall it be-"
OF course, the first part of this re.
flutes the general argument Of the
eugenIst, for naturally the reverse
must be true: There never was a
family line so weak but that at one
time in its history, in some way, in

CHILDHOOD TODAY
 IS ONE TRAGEDY
So Declares Speaker at o. teopathic Convention, and
 Explains Why.

Philadelphia, Pa, Aug. 4.-"Modern childhood is one continual tragedy declared Dr. R. w. Ford of Seattle, Washington. today at the eighteenth annual convention of the Amerlcal Osteapathic association.
 'fPoets and se2timentadsts and other impractical uniformed people :, prate of the joys of childhood, but they know not the children of today nor the conditions in which they live. In my opinion, few thigs are harder than the first ten years of life and consider them far from being happy for any child. He is constantly try ing to adapt himself to his environ ment, frantically struggling, hoping to learn the game of living, subpect to the whim, command and conven- fence of parents, grandparents, varl- ous relatives, teachers, most any older person he meets and no sorrow of adulthood can begin to equal the griefs endured in ones early years before he has learned relative values of things ia geenral.
 "The Chamber of Commerce doesn't begin to meet the issues nor solve as many problems as come to the city girl of twelve. She must make her grades at school, belong to danc- ing clas, practice few hours dalIy on the piano, have private French lesson, ride horseback Saturday morning, roller skate little. have her shines, shampOOs, manicures, facials, etc., and always keep her appointments, while her twi nbrother is just as busy with his things equal ly as important. These girls are too busy to attend to the daily physical needs-cut short their sleep, are all ways tired, nervous, constipated, growing into anaemic neurasthetfc, unfit wives and mothers, mater with the degenerate, sporty drinking, smoking male of her own class. If there were time in this mad rusn of the years of childhood, osteopathy could do much for the diseases inci- dent to it, but dose of medicine is so much cpeedier to take than is an osteopathic treatment. Cant we somehow create public sentiment to prolong childhood, to simplify its oc- equations and demands and to endow it with more leisure?
 Much of osteopathy's best work for childhood is preventive and the day is not far distant when thinking parents will have their children ex- amined osteopathically every six months and heed our warnings if they have time.

GERMANY GIVES
 NOTICE TO U. 5,
Evades Declaration, Say ing Estate of War;
 Exists.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The German embassy served notice on the United States today that a "state of war; exists between France and Germany It is tantamOunt to a declaration of war. but technically different.
 The notice from the German coul- selor at Newport is practically the same as announcement in Berlin last night by the German premier, in which he sought to place upon France full responsibility for the beginning of hostilities.
 The notice justifies the United States and other neutral countries in the issure of formal proclama tions of neutrality, and set in motion all of the legal machinery necessary to enl- power the German government itself to proceed as in the case of an actual dclaration of war.
 The only difference noted here be- tween the two forms is that the "ltate of war" announcement still re- lleves the German government of liability for the initiation of hostili- tics, such as would be carried by the issue of a formal declaration of war, l point which will figure largely iii the negotiations which must close hosilitleS in the end.

BARNEY DREYFUSS
 WRITES TO BLOOM
Manager of Pirates, Says He Will Send Scout to
 Clamp" City Leaguers.

Pine Bluff will be host to big league scout within the next two weeks, according to letter receiv- ed yesterday by Mayor Simon Bloom from Barney Dreyfuss manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates.
 Mayor Bloom, who is personal and lifelong friend of MT. Dreyfuss addressed him letter several weeks ago urging him to send his scout to Pine Bluff and look over some of the fast material in the city league. He made special mention of one young ster, who, he is sure will make good if given a chance in faster coriptny.
 The exact date of the arrival of the scout will not be made known as Mr. Dreyfuss wishes to keep his com ing secret, believing that if the boys knew that he was "eying" them from the grandstand they would be overcome by stage fright and not be able to put up the article or ball which they usually display.
 Speaking of his team and the hard luck in which they have been play ing for several weeks, Mir. Dreyfuss write:
 Our boys certainly have been going badly for the past six weeks. but it is all due to a severe batting slump, and if they can only get up to their normal strength in batting with out any further waste of time, we may yet get in the running"
