Warfield that ho whs wasting his timo

Uy Helen C. (Inlo
Tito Titxk of ftoclal Hygiene"
Hy Huvulock Hills. Published by
Houghton Mifflin Co. (Library).
Ilatcliick Kllis is not n radical re
former, who dreams of tho better
ment of the race with unpractical
llieorirf, but he is one, who has a
hiiic, unbiased view of conditions nt
they exist in the World today, mid
his bonk on social hygiene Miows a
deep study of cuiihc mid effect. Ill
this book he gives logical ideim re
garding tho welfare of the race (hilt
could he earned out without inter
ference to natural progression ami
(volution.
"Koeial Hygiene," he says, "un
like thu old social reform, Hint at
tempted to ileal Willi conditions as
they were, without going to the
soilrrc, aims nt prevention mid is the
inevitable method, by which n cer
tain stage, civilization !h couitielled
lo continue its coumo nnd to pre
serve perhaps to elevate tho race."
Most of the ideas in tho first two
chapters, regarding the changing
Hiatus of women nnd tho woman
movement have been covered by El
len Keys and other reform writers,
hut thu chapter "Tho falling llirlh
rnle," contains new nnd advanced
ideas, exprcsxed, pcrhnps, for the
first time. Some of these ideas nre
ralhcY startling nt first acquaintance,
for they nre directly opjxjscd to the
things that we have been taught to
believe and have clung to ns snered.
However, when dissected and di
gested, they appear to have so much
of common sense in them that our
old-fashioned beliefs appear as sup
erstitions. "Increase and Multiply,"
he remarks, "was spoken on tho
thrcshhold of an empty world." And
goes on to state, giving reasons in
detail, Hint n high birth-rnto it
necessarily followed by n high death
rate. He quite disagrees with Theo
dore Itooscvclt that largo families nre
a blessing to n country. He thinks
that fewer nnd better children should
bo the rule, and that it would be much
moro seiisiiiic tor the state to pay
some peoplo for not hnving children,
than it would to pension parents of
largo families. The mentally defi
cient, the cripples mid the paupers,
that conic from these large, ponnis
ciotts families, are more of a burden
nnd expense in the long run thnn the
pension, nnd more of a menace to
race than race suicide would be. "It
can never happen in modern times
that the re-adjustment of the condi
tions of life can be mndc to keep the
mcc with a high birth rate."
Another most unusual idea is con
tained in his chapter, "Tho Effects of
Religion on tho Child." Ho contends
that a child should not he taught re
ligion until ho has reached the age
of ndoleseuce. "A child's mind is at
once logicnl and extravagant mat
ter of fact and imetic a combina
tion of nppoxities, tho inevitable out
come of the fact that tho child's
mind is working, ns it were, in n
vaceuni." Too enrly religious trnin
is apt to bo disastrous. A child is
not capable of realizing the things in
religion that even maturo minds some
times fail to grasp mid tho Sunday
schools havo many tcnclicrs that are
unfit to havo the training of children
in these most iniortiint things, for a
religious teacher should understand
the psychology of a child's miud moro
than anyone else
In regard to immorality and Jhc
Inw, his views aro moxt sensible.
"The blind hasto of over realous re
formers," ho says, "has not led to
progress, but to retrogression." In
this discussion, ho points out most
specially, the unexpected, miserable
attempts at re f onu and their results
in the United States. "Tho most ser
ious police defects in tho United
States is duo to impractical laws
mndo hy inexperienced legislators."
No distinction is made, hy tho Amer
icans, between vico nnd crime. This
is a legacy of tho early Puritans. Pe
eauso u thing is displeasing or dis
gusting to some, is no reason that It
should ho regarded nnd punished ns
n crime. "Selfishness is not living
us ono wishes to live, but in asking
othors to live as ono wishes to live."
Prohibition is regarded hy this Eng
lishman as an example of selfishness.
The Kniues lnw of New York is cited
nnd tho result of it on prohibition
and prostitution is given in detail.
This law hns to do with tho Sunday
liquor Inw mid hllis shows, giving
statistics, how this ono impractical
reform lias mndo conditions worso
thnn if no law regarding tho Sunday
closing law hud hcon mndo nt all.
It is tho old argument, that you
cannot niako peoplo good by law. Tho
study of sexual hygiene, ho holds, if
wisely carried out will do moro to
benefit morals than legislation, mid
tho mothers and teachers of today
nro tho ones who need teaching nnd
instruction in how to help the com
ing generations realize a better con
dition of affnirs than wo hnvo today.
Ellis does not divorco lovo from
eugenics, Kugouies, as regarded by
Davenport nnd others, ho observes as
u sort of higher cattle breedings nnd
bays it would bo itu-eudurablo if not pulpit.
unpractical, "l no eugenic lticnl in
not nn artificial product, but tho
reasoned manifestation of a natural
instinct." lie gives nature moro
credit than most theorists do, mid
would only aid, mid not thwart her in
hnr evolution. "Eugenics should not
plot ngainst love, hut against the in
fluences that ilo violence lo love."
Hitvclock Ellis hns no stringent
rules to follow or any plans that
would suddenly take us nut of the
natural trend of Ihn race, nil ho does
Is to point tho wny nnd ask the peo
plu to hope mid help for better
things. "No Utopia was ccr real
ized, mid the ideal, ns n rnlrngc, mnst
ever elude us, or it would rense to lie
nn ideal. Yet all our progress, if
progress there be, ran only lio in
setting our faces towards the goal
to which Utopias and ideals point."
"The Inside of tho Cup."
Hy Winston Churchill
Published by MncMillnn, Price $l.fn1
In "Kichard Carvel," Churchill gavo
us a story of CoJoninl America; "The
Crisis" was written of Civil War
titncH, nnd "A Modem Chroniclo"
dealt witli tho ever agitating divorce
problem of tho present dny. "Tho
Inside of tho Cup" might ho regarded
us a book of tho future, for it is 3
cry for a universal religion that will
meet witli the needs of the present
and coming generations. Not the
orthodox religion, that sufficed for
tho spiritual satisfaction of our
grandparents, not a mystic religion,
borrow from the eastern countries,
and not a religion based on a few
"eienlific fuels, immersed in occult
devices, but n practical, christian re
ligiou tlint will hold nnd benefit tho
doubting generation; one that inter
prets the IJiblc in such a way that it
will nppcnl to the reason nnd enable
iteoido to nssimalato it into their
lives.
John Hoddor was a young minis
ter, desirious of doing good in his
vocation, but handicapped by an
orthodox training nnd strict orthodox
views. He had chnrgc of a mctro-
K)litnu church where the congrega
tion was a most wealthy and fash
ionnblo ene: This congregation ex
pected comfortnhle sermons of him,
that would bo devoid of any sensa
tional and socialistic ideas. He
preached along tho strict orthodox
lines for a few yenrs and was very
popular witli his parishioners, but
after n while he experienced n feeling
of dissatisfaction with himself and
his work. During one of his vaca
tions he was attracted to tho slums
and there he met with conditions, ex
isting in tho very district of his par
i.-h, that were horrible and revolting.
He learned thnt some of tho wealth
iest members of his church, owned the
unhealthy tenements and collected ex
orbitant rents from tho houses of
prostitution. He discovered that dis
honest business deals, carried on by
ono of his most devout parishioners,
wero tho cause of poverty, distress
nnd suicide. These church members,
who did nothing personally to allay
the wun nnd suffering in tho world,
who caused crime and did nothing
toward its prevention, deluded the
public by giving largo sums of money
to useless charity, and hid their
guilty hearts nndcr tho protecting
clonk of religion.
"Woo unto you, scribes nnd phnri
secs, hypocrites I For yo mako clean
tho nutsido of tho cup nnd of the
plattor hut within thoy nro full of
extortion nnd excess." So thought
John Hodder, who now saw tho empti
ness of tho orthodox policy that ho
had been following. Ho began to
put his newly found religion into
prnctieo and begnn interpreting tho
teaching set forth by Christ, for the
present day needs. His fashionable
congregation wns disturbed and
Miocked; ho was accused of heresy"
and hut for tho kindly sympathy of
the old bishop, ho would havo been
forced to resign. His snlnry was
denied him but ho felt that this
church needed him moro than nny
other and so ho retuninod, bravely
trying in tho fnco of nil difficulties,
to nwakou tho peoplo to a senso of
duty to their find and man. As a
guide and sympathetic companion,
tho young rector won for his wifo,
tho daughter of thovvealthiest man in
his congregation. This man, through
his ill-gotten wealth had caused
great pain and suffering . Ho was
tho grealest hypocrito of them all
mid sought to hide his knavery be
hind n religious mask. When his
daughter became, interested in tho
now work of John Hqdder's projects,
and finally fell in lovo with him, her
father disinherited her and left tho
church taking with him tho main fi
nancial support of that church.
This hook is wondorfully well writ
ton and shows much study nnd deop
thought. Churchill, who seems to
havo put much of himself in it, tnkos
such a sincere interest in tho possi
bility of this broad, sensible and uni
versal roligion and hns so clearly
mndo his point in religious discus
sion, that one becins to wonder if ho

field of fiction and r.scending tho
