fornia is leading all other States
in practical eugenics."
Studies conducted by DR.. Paul
Popanoe, eugenist and financed by
E. S. Gosney, local capitalist, re-
veal that since California passed
its sterilization law in 1909, total
of $500 young men and women in
the States six insane hospitals and
one feeble-minded institution have
been unsexed. This is four times as
many as in the entire remainder of
the United States.
About one in every twelve en-
trants into the States six insane
asylums have been sterilized. Just
1000 have undergone the same

CHECK FIVE-YEAR FIRE
Rangers Work to Prevent Sawdust
Blaze From Spreading.

BIZ United Press
OROVILLE, Cal, June 8.-With
the approach of the danger period
for forest fires, rangers here are
planning a way to prevent the
spread of a fire which has been
burning in a huge sawdust pile near
here for the past five years.
E. P. Biggs, district inspector of
the State Forestry Service, has been
clearing circle around the sawdust
pile which will be big enough to
prevent sparks from leaping across.
Last year the fire spread to the
nearby timber lands and caused
considerable damage.

BRINGS DROP IN
CHURCH CROWD
Autos, Heat and Vacations
Blamed for Decrease
by Pastors.

Mr.. and Mrs. Indianapolis will at
tend church this summer, and may
be Miss Indianapolis will go to, but
Master Indianapolis-or at least one
member of the four who compose
that mythical family-will fail to
be present during the summer
months, survey conducted by The
Times discloses.
Ministers of all denominations es-
timated the summer attendance for
this year will be from 20 to SO per
cent below that for the winter. Va
cation trips, country homes, the
heat and substitute pastors are
among the factors contributing to
the decrease.
One pastor declared that summer
attendance would be hindered by
daylight time, but others did not
consider this factor important. One
very noticeable feature of nearly all
vacation programs lay in the elimi-
nation of the Sunday afternoon and
evening services.
Union Services Planned
Irvington churchgoers will be
afforded an opportunity to attend
union services on summer Sundays,
according to the Rev. B. r. John
son, pastor of the Downey Ave.
Christian Church. The meetings
will be held at the Downey Ave. and
the Irvington M. E. Church, the
Rev. j. B. RoSemurgy, pastor.
A special drive for children for
vacation Sunday School classes is
also being made at the Downey Ave.
Church during the first three weeks
in June.

Paul's Episcopal Church, emphasized

Slump In Hot Weather
During the very hottest season,
with substitute pastor in charge,
the drop is much greater" DR..
Brown declared.
Rev. Frank L. Roberts, pastor of
the Central Avenue M. E. Church,
said that a special series Of sermons
now being given on modern Qnes-
. tons was holding the attendance up.
The slump there probably will be
greatest during July and August, he
declared, but not more than IS per
cent of the winter total.
Generally speaking, downtown
churches are the heaviest sufferers
from the hot weather slump, leaders
said.
