Teacher Holds
Boys Need Curb
Much as Girls

STEPHEN E. KRAMER, as
~ sistant superintendent of
schools, is worried. He
thinks we pay enough atten-
ton to the habits of the girls
Of this generation, but why
neglect the boys and their
cigarette-smoking habits? He
puts the blame on the par
ents.
He is very serious about it,
and says he could write a
book on the "Insincerity Of
Modern Life" He says. for
instance:
"A man tells boy he
shouldn't smoke, and then
goes off and smokes himself.
A boy smokes because he
wants to ape a man and he
thinks it manly. but why not
initiate the good qualities in
a man?
"A man. or a father. tells
his boy he mustn't do this or
ID that With M intapti0y ~
doing the same things him
self. ! wish we could get
away from putting things in
the Santa Claus class in the
instruction of children"
Mr.. Kramer offers the sin
| gle standard Of morals for
girls and boys as the solution
of unmanly habits.

ing to 1880 Eighth street northwest
in answer TO an emergency call on
"a cutting case" yesterday evening.
The white-coated physician grasped
his instrument case and dashed up
the steps two at a time and asked
where the person was that was cut.
He was met by brother physician,
DIR. V. II. Riley, of the Emergency
Hospital, who told the doctor that
there had been no cutting, but that
he would very much like to have his
trunk moved in the ambulance from
the house to the hospital. He gave
that as his reason for summoning
the ambulance.
The police who arrived in the pa.
troll wagon seemed amused at the
novel method of DIR. Riley, but De-
tective Sergeants Fowler and Fla
