IMPORTANCE OF RILEY
HOSPITAL TO NATION
TOLD BY DR.. SMITH

The Importance of the Riley Me.
mortal hospital for children in the
work of stamping out the scourge OF
mental detectives in the state and ma
ton was emphasized by DR.. S. f.
Smith, superintendent of the Eastern
Indiana Hospital for the Insane, at the
meeting of the Richmond Ministerial
association in the reading room OF
the Y. N. c. A. Monday.
Dr. Smith stated that much of the
disease which is responsible for feeble
mindedness is contracted by the vic
tim in infancy and is preventable If
treated in its early stages. A stronger,
more intelligent race will result from
the work of the great Indiana hospital
for children when it is completed and
its work has been effective for per
iod of years. said Dr. Smith.
The speaker also stressed the i'm
portance of law which would require
all applicants for marriage license to
place their applications two weeks
prior 10 the date the license is to be
granted. In this way, he explained,
the marriage of many mental defect
ives could be prevented and rapidly
decrease the large number of children
who come into the world each year
with no possible opportunity to be
/ given medical assistance.
/ DR.. Smith also stated that the two
weeks period which the law would re-
quire would also give plenty of time
/ to report cases of applicants who are
mental detectives This phase of the
/ Legislation would operate we'll in con
nection with another law already made
which prevents the issue of marriage
] licenses to mental detectives if they
are known to be such, but, 1.-The doc
tor stated, 1T is sometimes difficult
to determine whether the applicant is
sane or not and a union of this kind is
usually made on the spur of the
moment"

GOING TO UNIVERSITY
(Bv Associated Pressl


TOLEDO, Ohio, Oct 23.-"Preach-
ers can peter out. go stale, become lax
in intellectual methods and habits" de-
clared Rev Allen A. Stockdale in his
farewell sermon at the First Congre-
gational church here, before leaving
for years study at Oxford university,
England, and an extended tour of the
holy land.
Mr.. Stockdale said that while it is
probably true" that a minister can
open his mouth and the Lord will fill
it, under purely natural processes the
minister himself fills it with wind"
He asserted that the American pull
pit must be kept alive in mind as well
as in heart, and that he believes this
can be done only when periods for new
study are provided for ministers as
sabbatical years are given to college
and university professors.
Must Be Prophets.
Il believe that preachers must be
prophets and that pulpits must be the
opportunity for seers," Mr. Stockde.e
said
The tendency of the age is toward
propaganda, instead of prophecy, we
are slaves to money, and methods, and
ate liable TO forget that eternal truth
and eternal life are the foundations OF
JOY and service and character.
People are getting tired of mate
r1allsm and are ready to turn to con.
structRe idealism and the interpreta
lions of fundamental spiritual life. !
believe that the needs of the next %
years demand more fearless intellec
tual and cultural ministry"
With such personal believes and
ideas, Rev. Mr.. Stockdale asserted
there wasn't anything left for him tC
do, but go TO school again"
