PUTS BLAME ON PARENTS
Writer IN Eastern Magazine criticizes
Behavior OF the Pupils Of
the High School.

It used to be that the college stu
dent was the target of criticism for
all manner of excuses; now it is the
students of u high schools. Pre-
sumably the high schools contain our
choicest boys and girls, yet every once
in a while a principal or local educa-
tional board has to speak against the
way the girls dress or the question
able social habits between the two
sexes. Principal Jackson of the Lynn
(Mass.) English High school. in ad-
dressing the 1000 girls and boys un-
der his care. charged them with
cigarette smoking, immortality and
immodesty." Complaints had been
made by the school committee of the
way things were going, and the princi-
pal was authorized to make wholesale
explosions unless there was an imme-
date improvement in conduct. Smok-
ing, flirting and improper conduct gen.
orally were referred to-. Principal
Jackson pictured a boy of the school
walking down the street between two
girls. each dressed like a fashion
plate. and he putting a cigarette. He
told the girls they should consider
every puff al insult. He referred, too,
to the immodest custom of girls call
ing up boys on the telephone and max
ing dates" for the evening.
Yet we marvel at the lack OF re-
finement that pervades our social life
today. If this sort of thing continues
among our high school students. in
the mex generation there will be no
respect for social conventions, or pos
sibly no conventions to respect. What
can mothers be thinking about when
they dress their sixteen or seventeen
year old daughters like a fashion
plate?" Or what has become of the
feminine modesty when young girls,
who ought to be spending their eve
nings at home with their books, take
the initiative and make dates" with
boys? Oh what about the home train
ing of the boy who parades the streets
with a girl on either side of him, puff
ing cigarette smoke into their faces?
II is about time we got back to some
old-fashioned standards for our boys
and girls. both in the high schools and
the homes.-Leslie's.

DegeneratiUe Diseases
Caused BY the War

The records Of all previous wars have shown
an average OF three men dying from disease to
every one killed In battle. How this happens Is
explained by Dr. Huber In another column of
tnese pages. The European scientists, taking
into consideration the advances in surgery In
aseptic treatment and improved camp hygiene,
nave cut this proportion arbitrarily down to
one man killed by disease to every one killed
IN battle. They estimate also that within three
years after the close OF the war no less than
o,oOo'ovo more men will have died of degener.
atlVe diseases caused by and through the ardu.
GUS campaigning. This is especially true, they
say, or the boys under twenty-one who have been
impressed in all the armies and the men over

ers bill" If the war lasts until January 1, 1915.
Their appalling forecasts. not only OF those
slaughtered in battle, but also killed by disease
and Of the wars aftermath, have been de-
rived from study Of official Red Cross figures
for the first six months Of the war, and also
from the various reports and estimates from
the various countries for the twelve months
just closed.
Their estimates are that II the war con.
tnues until the new year 6,212l66 men will
have been killed In battle, an equal number
will have died Of disease, exposure and the
effects of wounds. and that after the war is over
a pitiful army of at least 11,000.000 cripples,
crazy and invalids will linger.
These totals, incredible as they seem, are
stated to be conservative. It Is admitted by
the statisticians that the losses as reported by
the different countries are not always to be
relied upon, for each tries to minimize its own
and to magnify the damage inflicted upon the
enemy The only impartial figures obtanable
haev been those Of the Red Cross Society. and
these have just been prepared for the first six
months Of the war only 1t is these official
tables that haze been made the groundwork OF
the calculations.
From the Red Cross tables we see that dur.
ing this first half.year Of war; when the allies
were getting ready and Italy was not yet In
the struggle. the number of dead upon the
battlefield reached the enormous total Of 2146,
600. Russia has naturally. been the heaviest
loser, with 1888, 900 dead, 100000 slightly
wounded. $4,000 severely wounded and 1000
taken prisoner; a total loss of 34S5 900,
although the largest number are only slightly
wounded and may go back into the battlefield.
Germany has lost 49,, 900 killed outright, had
100000 slightly wounded. $1,000 seriously
wounded and $4,000 captured; total Of 1572,.
600. In proportion to the men engaged France
has suffered very heavy Losses, with 464, 900
killed in battle. 71S,O0o slightly wounded. 1885,.
600 seriously wounded and 4s6. 900 captured or
q total of 2.1l6, 0oo. Ali these are official Red
Cross figures for just the first six months of
the war
The scientists have taken into consideration
that the fighting the second six months of the
war has been even more savage and dest. nc.
tive than during the first six. During the
Spring the losses in the Carpathians and on
the Western line have been frightful. Pro.
lessor Henri Douget, one of the French scen-
lists looking into the matter, estimates that on
July close to 10000 men had been slaugh-
tered on all the battlefelds. One year OF the
war, he figures. will show 4,347, 900 dead from
battle alone

four million men ready for battle II England
has thus concealed her resources we may be
sure that the other nations have not been more
frank in their avowals Of strength, and the total
Of more than thirty-ive millions Is below
rather than above the mark
1t has been repeatedly claimed in dispatches
both from Sweden and Norway and also Italy
before she entered the war that the Teutons
have in the field and In readiness no, ten
million men. they are credited with on
paper but more than twenty million.
comparison Of these totals with our own
Civil War figures will show that their incred.
Utility Is due really to the enormous number OF
men involved rather than to the proportion of
fatalities. There served In the Union army and
navy during the Civil War 2.2l3,365 men OF
these 35952S were killed either in battle or by
disease. This is close to IL per cent But
modern invention has raised the destructive
powers Of war fully 1000 per cent-this Is an
actual estimated percentage of the increased
deadliness OF modern weapons by the famous
Italian statistician and scientist. Professor
Lorenzo Fratelli. This being 80 the percentage
OF little over 30 per cent Of the opposing
not so great
but of the 35s.52S Union men who lost their
lives during the Civil War 224586 died OF
disease-that Is, more than two men to every
one killed by lethal weapons.
This being 30 the estimate of the European
scientists does not seem to be too large.

1t is not the time to quarrel over phrases
Autonomy may mean much it may mean
little; il may also be said that self government
on colonial lines is inapplcable to India But
as a question Of practical politics one has to
look, not to words, but to actual facts. What
has happened since the Crown took over the
government of the country from the East
India Company. a little over half century
ago1 There were then no legislative councils
and Indians occupied only very humble and
subordinate positions in every branch of the
public service
The first Legislative Council was established
in 1862 on tentative and cautious basis, and

OF the councils in just about fifty years, is it
too much TO hope that in course OF time they
will be as representative of the peoples of
India as the Parliament here is of the British
