W'th a splendid representation of ed ucators from all parts of the state the second day of the clt venth annual meet ing of tne western division of the Ore gon State Teachers' association proved of exceptional Interest this morning at Lincoln high school. President Camp bell of the I'niverslty of Oregon, ad dressed the general meeting on "The High School Course of Study from the Standpoint of the I'nlvcrsity President." President famphrll declared that the state university was making no attempt to dictate to the hl;h schools of the state what courses of study they should follow, but that the nine and a half units required for entrance are recog nized as standard In practically all high schools. The university, he said, was disposed to accept all subjects thoroughly taught and demand mo(e of the quality of the teaching than of specific subjects. Praises High Schools. He stated that after the student has entered the university the work is en tirely elective, with the exception of one year of English composition and two years of some language not Eng lish. The only restriction placed upon the student Is that at least one-sixth of his course must be along the line of the major subject which he elects to specialize in. President Campbell spoke very highly of the high schools of the state and said that the students from them show excellent preparation. The students, he said, show energy and ambition which speak eloquently for the moral quality of the schools. Among the discussions of various phases of school life In the different sections that on social hygiene proved of greatest Interest and at the comple tion of Dr. W. T. Williamson's address on "The Pedagogy of Sex Hygiene," It was necessary to adjourn the meeting from the school room to the assembly hall, where Dr. William T. Foster, president of Reed college, spoke on "Who Is a Safe Teacher of Sex Hy giene T" Dr. Williamson showed the neces sity of such instruction in the schools and stated that It should follow ele mentary training In the home. He showed the relation of the study to the health of the school children and gave an Instructive lecture on the dis eases and abuses which follow lack of proper knowledge. ur, rosier took up the discussion by stating that there were four requisites for a teacher of this subject. He said such a teacher should thoroughly under stand the subject, should be sincere, should be earnest to the point of rever ence and should know how to teach. "The conventional attitude toward this subject la a crime against civiliza tion," said Dr. Foster. "Of all of the fundamental phases of health It Is left to be learned from the companions of the street, from the moving picture shows and from quacks whose greatest desire is to keep people in Ignorance. Teaching this subject is attacking ignorance and not innocence. The lat ter is beautiful in a babe but criminal In a boy or girl of -. or IB. "It Is a paying proposition for quacks as one. such contracted for 120,000 worth of advertising last year. No reputable physician could afford to do this. Some day the people of Portland will refuse to buy the papers which contributes to these quacks by accepting their adver tising." Officers Elected.
