Paint and Education
Editor Statesman: !
' Without beating around the
bush let me approach ray subject
"Painted Faces and Education."
Those with a baser nature are
easily educated to things degrad
ing. Those of natural refinement
are equally easily educated to
things elevating. The schoolroom
Is not la strong medium for the
education of either. Religious or
ganizatlons are educational rned
iums for one the naturally re
fined, but cannot reach the other
those of our young people who
today are giving expression to
their baser nature by painted lips

and cheek's; yea, faces enameled
to the' cracltlng point, because but
few of this class come into con
tact with its everlasting! Influ
ences.1 As naturally as water runs
down hill so does social degener
acy seek the lowest level; no edu
cation Is necessary, but on every
hand there exists those influences
that lead to vulgarity and all its
associations. j ? 1 i
The
wise counsel at home, If
there is any, .Is but a dropln the
bucket compared to what will be
necessary ; t6 stem the tide of
failing" for this "beauty! stuff
that Is! so fast robbing our girls
of their self respect, and making
themselves attractive only-j to the
baser elass of society. !
An educational campaign of the
proportions of a community chest
drive; ior the like, is what these
uncounseled girls need to make
this "beauty stuff"; so unpopular
that it will be considered a dis
grace to even call for a. ''lip stick"
let alone, showing evidence of hav
ing used It. I '
Is there not some organization
that will come to -the rescue of
these unfortunate young girls.
and by a campaign of education
so unpopularize this degrading
practice ,that a man may waiic
down the street without constant
ly being shocked by the apparent
lack ior r ordinary decency as . he
looks into the faces of a large per
centage of the. young girls he
meets whose age suggests, that if
there is ever going to be red blood
in their veins it should be there
now.

turer said that parents are prone
to leave everything to the teacher,
who gets, the ; blame when this
should be placed upon the homes
which I too rof ten are lacking In tne
proper environment. .
"The American race nas ceasea
to be healthy, normal animals and
because of this cannot reproduce
healthy, normal children to send
to school," he said. "People dont
know ( what ails them. This is
proven by the fact that $300,000,-
000 is spent annually - for patent
medicines." I
The speaker likened the school
to a store, with the teachers com
pared to clerks. Baskets filled by
the children, are Influenced by the
clerks, Mr. Ott said. He urged
that more time be spent studying
the pupils instead of prescribed
methods of teaching.
The Increase of the criminal to
day: was held to !be duo to the
fact that' the , world is breeding
criminals and . America Is1 import
ing them. ' . ' - ' '-
"The boy problem today is due
to too much varnish in the home
and the boy is not made to feel

ment;" Mr. Ott ' said In closing
He urged great immigration re

"Go make the. world; don't let
the world make you," was the
challenge brought forth Tuesday
afternoon by Sam Grathwell of
Ohio Speaking on 'Getting By
Your Hoodoo," he began with al
lusion to the witch' craze in Mas
sachusetts. "Modern hoodoos,"
he said, "can't be burned at the
stake. We have to burn ourselves.
for we ourselves are responsible
for what we get out of life."
Mr. Grathwell enumerated a
few 6fthe direct, of present day
hoodoos, namely, pessimism, sel
fishnes's, and sensitiveness. - PesSl
mism be defined as an expression
of fear, with nothing in the world
quite so paralyzing. Sensitive
nessj he brought out, undermines
character and makes cowards out
of people. He insisted that a
large part of the world had been
kept; down simply by the Individ
ual being afraid to speak, think.
and ;act for himself. The fear of
What others will think:' has left
many a man,, a nobody.
Mr. Grathwell defined the re
THE backbone of any picture is the story
