SEES AMERICANS
LOSING V|R|L|TY
MEDICAL PROFESSOR DECLARES
PEOPLE AS A CLASS ARE
BECOMING EFFEMINATE.
Says Rights Of Persons, Not Duties,
Are Too Strongly Urged.


Charles w. Burr, professor of men
tai diseases at the University of
Pennsylvania, has stirred up consid-
cradle interest among members of his
profession by an article in the New
York Medical Journal on "Adolescent
Insanity and National HEALTH" and
in it he declares that Americans as
class have lost their virility and
are becoming effeminate.
1--WE hear too much Of the rights
OF the people, but too little Of their
duties," writes DR.. Burr. 1--WE spend
untold millions in money and effort
in trying to remove the stresses and
strains of life; we spend relatively
little in training youths to withstand
stress and are becoming effeminized."
According to DR.. Burr the little
groups of so-called serious thinkers in
the country are calculated to serious
ly affect the health Of the nation as a
whole by reason of their fads and
follies, and he compares the usual
well-bred social reformer to "a
puppy chasing its tail"
"a nations breakdown" writes DR..
Burr, ''is foreshadowed by increasing
degeneration in its citizens. FIRE.
quently the degenerates themselves,
overrefined, overcultured, oversensi-
tive, mistake disease for health and
interpret as signs Of progress things
which really prognosticate racial
| death.
"There is more social and mental
| unrest today in America than there
has ever been before in it's history,
and as much as there has ever been
| anywhere at any time in the worlds
history. This unrest is interpreted
to indicate robust national mental
health, great independence of mind
and superior intelligence or neu
roticism and hysteria, according to
the point of view of the observer.
DR.. Burr states frankly that Adde'S
cent insanity is increasing; that as il
threatens seriously the nations
health, it behooves physicians tt
watch it carefully. Hard drinking
he says, is danger, not because o.
tho effect of the drinking, but be
cause of the fact that the hard drink
er has allowed himself to become
such through degenerated menta
traits. Urging that school course
should be made harder. DR.. Burr set
forth:
II am forced to the conclusion tha
school work never causes insanity.
. have seen not a few indifferen
scholars go insane while at school
but they became insane for the yer.
!, reason that they were indifferen
scholars, because they were in
herently weak. Really, our publi
| schools need stiffening in their sc
verify, not a greater laxness."

Sunday School Lesson for March
8, 1918: Joshua, Patriot and Leader"

Sunday School Lesson for March
8, 1919: Joshua, Patriot and Leader"
Golden Text: "Be strong. and of
good courage; be not affrighted,
neither be thou dismayed: for Jeho-
yah thy God is with thee whither-
soever thou goest." Joshu %.
NLessou: Joshua 10.
Leading Questions:
What is your life motto?
What is Christian courage?
How can man know that God is
with him?
1. Taking Up Great Mans Work.
If you had your choice in business
would you rather follow success.
full or an unsuccessful man? Why?
Joshua was severely tested because
he was called to follow Moses. Prob
ably great many people were tell
ing how things were done when
Moses was alive. They may have
been among the severest critics of
Moses yet in looking back on his
WORT %hey talked as though it was
the finest work ever done in the
world. There are churches in which
people can be found whose largest
service consists of praising the lead
ers Of the pastl They have no loyal
ty for the present pastor and officers.
Their commendation of the things
that used to be is discouragingly
constant. .cS
III. The Choice of Leaders.
When Moses died it was difficult
to hRd some one to take his place.
After Joshua was chosen they made
hiea fine promises. Joshua learned
to BE- a good leader by obedience.
When Moses said 60" he went; and
when Moses said Come" he came.
Therefore, three times he gave his en-
couragcrnent.
1t is worth great deal for a
chu n or any Christian institution
to have leader who has courage
The, source of courage is in God.
Take Joshua | % for your life motto
and you will face all the dangers and
discouragements which may come to
YOU with brave readiness. After
Joshua conquered the Canaanites he
had to conquer the inner enemies of
his own soul and Of the people. The
helo's,n of the camp often demands
more from us than the heroism OF
the battle.
k'ang Yu Wei, the Chinese reform
er who had to flee for his lifa from
Peking in 1893, was once asked what
seemed to him the most striking
quality in Jesus. His courage" he
replied.-"the manliness which could
so quietly and dauntlessly face the
hatred OF so many of his fellow
cOhtrymen, the fierce ennity OF the
pwIud Pharisees, and, above all, the
certainty of death, and of the out
Ward failure OF his mission; the
constructive, the valor which could
courage which undertook a work SO
make. and could ask for others, such
large sacrifices"

Waman's Bull Terrier Said to Initiate
Words Like a Parrot.

the conversation to show the manager
the dogs ability as conversation

"Whom do you love?" she next
asked.
"Love my mam-ma," came the an
swer with amazing distinctness.
"Wha. do you want for dinner?"
"Lamb." the dog answered loudly.
"And what else?"
"AIore lamb" it returned.
"Where is your co.lar?"
"Don't know" came the reply.
"Where do you want TO go?"
"Home, mamma"
The dog answered many other quos.
tions, but these were it's most distinct
utterances. Its "mam-ma," lamb"
and "lenl-on" were enunciated as
clearly as tho 1t were a person an
swering. and the other words were
sufficiently clear to be understood
readily.

the whole verdict was reversed. 1t

they became confirmed partisans of
America and became converted to our
ideals. That is the fundamental fact.

TO WITHDRAW FROM RUSSIA

American troops will be withdrawn
from Russia at the earliest possible
moment, Secretary Baker tells the
Military Committees of Congress. Di-
rections to this effect were received
by cable from President Wilson,
through Gen. Bliss. But 1t Is not ex-
pected that our troops can get out Of
Russia until late in the spring. Rus
sian ports are icebound at this season.
Our troops, with others of the AL
lied forces, went into Russia to pro-
tect American life and property.

LINGERIE BROCK IS REVIVED
Garments Made of Nets, Organdies, Georgettes, Chiffons, Crepes and
 Batistes for Summer.

The revival of the lingerie frock is an assured feature of summer.
 These frocks, made of sheer tissues such as nets, organdies, geOrgettes, chiffons, crepes and batistes, are most engaging, almost invariably combined with faces or embroideries and some times both. Some show beautiful hand embroideries or real faces, others ma chine-made laces or embroideries-the choice rests with the purse of the pur- chaser.
 Many all-lace afternoon frocks are being shown. Some are white and oth- CTS are in colored faces and nets, the colors being the seasons favorites- salmon, flesh, orchid, citron, straw and jade.
 Ribbon sashes are worn with most of these frocks. Parasols in chiffons or laces, together with lace or georg- ette hats, help to complete these beau tiful frOcks.

Many people were enormously inclined to connect the census with taxation. We hope to avoid any such confusion this time" |" The proper tabulated figures of the census are given out nowhere but here in Washington, and then only upon the express authority of the director of the census bureau.
 Actual work by the enumerators in the various census districts will begin on January 2, 1920. It is expected that the population statistics of all cities and towns will be gathered in approx imately two weeks. Final figures for rural districts, however, can hardly be gathered in less than a month.

gon eight miles, and this tract, the
only redwoods in Oregon, should also
be made public park.
Grants Pass, in accordance with
its location, will be on the Park to
park highway and should be an out
fitting point for the redwood parks.
Madison Grant is head OF the Zoo
logical society OF New York, trustee
OF the American museum, president
Of the Bronx park commission, trav-
eler, writer and lover of nature. His
interest is to save the natures won
cerland to posterity and he is inter-
esting men of influence and commun-
tiles to see the Importance of the nat
ural scenery. The purchase of the
redwoods he says, would require an
amount less than the price OF a bat
tleship. yet would bring tourists to
the west who would spend each year
a fabulous sum.
The need for speedy action is very
great as in some instances the own
ers of small tracts are taking ad-
vantage of the highways to log off
their timber and in short time the
highways will extend through a will

derbrush, unless measures are taken
to prevent.
