VITALITY CONCERNS
THE RACE

The educational director of
the Oklahoma bureau of the
Public Health Service was flat
ly informed recently by a high
state official that the time is
ripe to educate the school chill
dren Of the state concerning
this vital subject; that the av-
erage boy and girl of school age
would become demOralized
through the teachings of sex
education in the public schools.
We maintain that venereal di-
seases is problem that concerns
the human race as whole and
each of us individually; that
it should be dealt with imme-
diately, frankly and intelligent
ly; that every boy and girl
above the age of thirteen years
should be fortified against the
menace by a more scientific
knowledge of hygiene than is
now possessed by the average
man and woman. The preVa-
lence of venereal diseases as
shown in the reports being re-
ceived by the Oklahoma bureau

Mrs. Rachel j. Myers
Buried at Moatsville

Mrs. Rachel ]. Myers, aged Is, wife
of Benjamin Myers, died Saturday aft
ernoon at the home of her son, R o.
Myers and daughter, Mrs. Maud Ben
nett, at 2SS Watson avenue after an
illness of several weeks duration. Mr..
and Mrs. Myers who were life long
residents of Moatsville, W. Va, came
here last fall to reside with their chill
dren. Nine children were born to this
union all of whom are living and are
as follows: Mrs. Elizabeth Compton,
of Philippi; Mrs. Bertha Bryan, OF
Moatsville; Mrs. George w. Bryan, OF
Moatsville; A. j. Myers, of Grafton;
j. A. Myers, of Monongah; r. U. Myers,
Mrs. Bennett, Mrs. Rosa Cox and Mrs.
Hyer Stalnaker, of Fairmont. There
are 81 grandchildren and 10 great
grandchildren.
The death OF Mrs. Myers is the first
to occur in the family.
The marriage of Mr.. and Mrs. Myers
took place in 1858. Mrs. Myers was a
devoated wife and loving mother and
she will be deeply missed in the home
circle. Mrs. Myers was daughter OF
| the late G. w. Frey, who bore the dis
tinction of having patroled General
Kelley to Philadelphia in the first bat
tie of the Civil war. She was devout
member of the Hopewell NJ. P. church
at Moatsville, for a period of forty
years.
Funeral services were held Sunday
afternoon at 2:3O o'clock from the res
idence and the body was taken to
Moatsville yesterday evening for in

lective brains in Fairmont are surely
sufficient to right any wrong"
During the above discourse the new
mayor sat in the back of the church
with arms folded, leaning slightly back
in his seat. When compliments grew
especially numerous, he smiled. May
or Conway listened attentively to all
the suggestions and advise heaped
upon him and appeared quite comfort
able under the weight Of his new IT,
| tie.
Rev. Bloomfield spoke of the city's
duties in equal frequency with the du-
ties of the new officials. He said, as
he had repeated before, all Fairmont
needed was two Democrats and two
Republicans you couldn't buy. But
around these two Democrats reVolVe
the whole Democratic party and
around the two Republican leaders re-
volve the Republican party. Not all
Democrats and not all Republicans are
what they ought to be. Both will line
up to prepare for positions in Fair
mont. They've been doing 1t all along
What we want to do is to serve notice
on both factions that the city stands
for its city affairs managed without
political significance only as far as
the right man does the job in the
best manner. Only as to genuine
worth will particular man stand out.
II Fairmont citizens will share the
responsibility each shall have his
share in roofing out evil here. Citi-
zens should be ready and willing to
give information when necessary as
TO gambling joints and houses of i'll
fame. Citizens by far outnumber any
group of politicians. This is your
system of defense to be built around
these four men. With this aid and
protection it will grow a habit to do
right and we'll have no selfish, impure
party politics in our midst to impede
prgress. The church life will be more
Inspiring when we have a healthy
condition of morals in the city and civ
ic Righteousness will do much to make
this city what it ought to be.
Rev. Bloomfield said he had been
enjoying the remarks made recently
regarding his having the new mayor
in his congregation. He said he felt
tremendous responsibility in the
matter He felt that Jesus was COM
ing into his own at last and he looked
for great things to happen in this new
administration.
