    SOCIAL HYGIENE IN
STATE IS REVIEWED
Oregon' Society, in Session,
Hears Reports and Talks
on Future Work.
GOOD RESULTS ATTESTED
Kdueators Favor Teaching Subject
to Children in Homes Katlier
Than" Schools Speakers
Are Prominent Men.
A review of the past efforts cf the
Oregon Social Hygiene Society and a
prospectus of its future work were
presented at the annual meeting of the
organization at the Benson Hotel Mon
day nisht.
Heads of various connnlttees in
charge of the several branches of the
r-ociety's activities repurM on the
progress of their work.
Tha most extended address of the
evening was that of Thomas M.
Blliet. dean of the school of educa
tion of New York University, who ad
vanced some interesting views on the
proper method of teaching social hy
tiene. It Was the OOinlon Of eVerv snenlrof
that this subject should be taught to
the children., by their parents rather
than by their teachers. It will be
necessary first 1o teach the teach
ers themselves before they can be ex
pected to impart this knowledge, prop
erly, to their pupils, explained Profes
sor Balliet.
Compulsion Not Idea. ''
Other speakers emphasized the fact
mat tne Oregon society does not advo
cate compulsory and universal, instruc
tion on this subject in the schools. On
the other hand, it was pointed out, the
organization has been active to restrict
the efforts at promiscuous teaching.
rr. W. T. Foster, president of Heed
College, and president of the society,
acted as toastinaster, the speaking pro
gramme following an informal recep
tion and a dinner.
W. F. Woodward, chairman of the
committee on public education, in his
report emphasized the need of further
extension of the society's activities. He
declared that the suffering due to the
lack of knowldge on the subject is ap
palling, and said that the principal dif
ficulty in the way of spreading knowl
edge among the young men is the In
difference of their fathers.
Dr. William House, chairman of the
committee on publication, enumerated
the numerous books and pamphlets that
have been distributed and of the help
ful influence that they have had. He
called theso publications "soldiers of
instruction."
Homes Are Visited.
A. F. Flegel. chairman of the state
extension committee, reported on the
activities in the various communities of
Oregon outside of Portland, on the in
terest that the people throughout the
state are taking in the movement, and
of the house-to-house visitations that
recently have been started to interest
the mothers.
Rev. W. G. Eliot, Jr., discussed school
co-operation. He declared that work
In tlie schools is necessary because an
investigation has proved that 90 per
cent of the parents refuse to instruct
their children on social hygiene. He
does not believe in introducing -the
subject as a separate course of study
in the schools, however. It should be
brought out in. the regular course,
natural science, biology and physi
ology. Mayor Albee. of Portland, told of
some of his personal experiences in
instructing boys on the subject, and
lauded the benefits of such work.
Knst Looks to Oregon.
J. C. English explained the advan
tages of lectures among the men em
ployed in various industrialplants and
reported that on a recent trip East
he learned that the Eastern states are
looking to Oregon for advice in the
work, inasmuch as this state has taken
the lead.
W. J. Kerr, president of the State
Agricultural College, asserted that it
is necessary to start the education
along this line with the parents.
Similar views were expressed by J.
IT. Ackerman, president of the State
Normal School. He told of some of
the difficulties experienced in. teach
ing the subject at the normal college.
He said It is inadvisable to teach it
in mixed classes of boys and girls.
Experienced teachers of rare tact are
required to lay the subject properly
before the pupils.
Brief one-minute talks were given
by I., s. Hopfleld. of McMinnville. who
praised the society for dispelling igno
rance among the people, and lauded
the address of Dr. .7. A. Gilbert be
fore the Oregon National Guard at
Uearhart last Summer; by Leslie But
ler, of Hood River; by J. II. Albert, of
Salem, and by W. T. Fletcher, prin
cipal of the James John High School
cf Portland.
-F"or Children." In Appeal.
Adolph Wolfe, treasurer of the so
ciety, declared that no work that he
ever has done has given him more
pleasure or satisfaction than has his
work with this organization. He ap
pealed to other bustness men of Port
land to join in the society's activities
'for the sake of our children"
Dr. Calvin S. White gave a brief
account of the early work of the so
ciety and its difficulties. Dr. J E.
Snyder, who has done much work" for
the organization in outlying districts,
spoke of his experiences in distant
parts of the state, and the encourage
ment that the people had griven the
movement.
Professor Balliet replied to the re
cently published criticisms of Br
Munsterberg. of Harvard, that this
movement is "all wrong" by. declaring
that Dr. Munsterberg knows nothing
about, it.
"He is always on the wrong side of
every .question." he said.
He declared that the idea among
some that the sex instinct in the
young should be checked is erroneous:
it should be directed in proper chan
nels, he said.
"There is nothing normal in human
nature that is wrong." he asserted, and
urged that the natural instincts can be
controlled through the senses of fear
shame and self-respect.
He pointed out that one objection
against teaching the subject in the
liomes is that some mothers have not
,nvePrP,Cr.iUCRt'on' and some fathers
, c th ProPer faculty for clean
InlliKing.
Americans Empowered to Act.
.w'A.S,11NGTON' Kov" 2 After con
sultation yesterday between the White
House and the War Department it was
decided that the orders given to Ameri
can troops on the border last Jlav to

your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and

MRS. LYON'S
AGHES AND PAINS
Have All Gone Since Taking
Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg
etable Compound.
Terre Hill, Pa." Kindiy permit m
to give you my testimonial in favor of
Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Com
pound. When I first
began taking it I
was suffering from
female troubles for
some time and had
almost all kinds of
aches pains in low
er part of back and
in sides, and press
ing down pains. I
could not sleeD and
had no appetite. Since I have taken
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound the aches and cains are all crone
and I feel like a new woman. I cannot
praise your medicine too highly. Mrs.
Augustus Lyon, Terre Hill, Fa.
It is true that nature and a woman's
work has produced the grandest remedy
for woman's ills that the world has
ever known. From the roots and
herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave to womankind
a remedy for their peculiar ills which
has proved more efficacious than any
other combination of drugs ever com
pounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound is recognized
from coast to coast as the standard
remedy for woman's ills.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass., are files containing hundreds of
thousands of letters from women seek
ing health many of them openly state
over their own signatures that they have
regained their health by taking Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound;
and in some cases that it has saved them
from surgical operations.
