PROSECUTION.

PROSECUTION.
Literary pretenders who write sex
novels and magazine stories today
are guilty OF producing septic litera-
ture.
such authors are as menacing To
the public health, especially in this
age of shifting moral standards, as a
typhoid carrier. Our mental and ply
seal health is endangered"
That is the burden Of an editorial

director the Life Extension Institute,

said:
Books and magazines of this sep
tic sex type appeal to an evfl appetite.

morphine: normal. healthy people do
not crave it, but many become ment-
ally infected md develop abnormal
tendencies. Clinics and hospitals re-
cord the terrible effects.

genius of these cowardly attacks on

Young people get the wrong view OF
life from these extreme stories. Nor

emotion OF love is dragged Town into
the mud Of materiality. This is the
wrong kind of sex education.
1--WE possess a reserve of energy
and emotion which must nave an out

terry and detective stories. People used
to condemn the dime novel as spec
