We are agreed that it may be blessed by knowledge and light. Most of us who are of any use whatever in the world are trying to reduce the sum total of hu man ignorance and find the path way of light. Notable among the banner bearers of an all-conquering knowledge must be reckoned the little group of men and women who have named themselves “The Social Hygiene Society.” They might have found a better name. They could hardly be engaged in a better work. Tha membership of this society includes merchants, lawyers, workingman, physicians, business men and women, preachers, teachers. One looks in vain for fanatics, freaks or faddists, for cranks and cantankerous per sons who are anti-everything. Now, this society has been or ganized for the purpose of broad ening the pathway of light, and for the purpose of inducing youths and girls to walk in it. In mat ters the most vital, most vital to the individual and to the State, ignorance is most dense. * * * Boys and girls ought to know. No good comes from forbidding knowledge to them. As a mat ter of fact, they will know, soon er or later. The trouble is that they may know too late. They will learn the facts of life, Noth ing but imbecility or death can prevent them learning. It is a question solely as to whether they shall learn in a sweet and gracious way from good and wise teachers or in a prurient, disgust ing way from evil companions, charlatans and quacks, the ghouls of our cities, the vilest of the vile. It is the view of these earnest men and women that parents ought to teach their boys and girls the things they need to know. They believe that the best teaching can be done in the home. They are not anxious that the schools should be used for this purpose. They are not asking that teachers should be compelled to qualify and that social hygiene should form part of the curricu lum of the public schools. Fa thers and mothers, theyv think, ought to be anxious, lovingly anxious, to teach their children as much of the meaning of life as is necessary to defend them- Little Bobbie’s Pa THINK the love of a dog for a man [ is beautiful, sed Ma to Pa last nite. 1 was reeding here about a poor old dog .that was found starved to deth beeside his master, a old miser. 1 suppoas, Ma sed, that the dog dident know the master had mun ny to buy all kinds of food with., I suppoas the dog thought that the old man was vary poor, so he stayed till the end. The dog was moar of a man than the miser, sed I’a. The dog lived and died for his master. The miser lived and died for his miserable gold, Gold, the biggest tragedy and the bhiggest joak in the wurld. We ought to have a dog, sed Ma. Neerly all the ladies of our set has nice littel dogs. We shall nevver have a dog as long as we live in a flat, sed Pa. - A person that lives in the city, cooped up in a flat, ain't got no rite to ask a dog to leed that kind of a life & 1 want you to keep on beeing a old fashioned wife & mother, Pa sed. The love of a dog for a man is butiful, as you say, but the love of a woman for a poodle dog is the limit, Pa sed. Every time | see a big fat blonde woman git on a street car with a littel dog under her arm and hear her saying to the dog Wopsey Kkiss mama I ask for a transfer & get out at the first cross town line, sed Pa. If I dident git out, 1 wud feel like throwing Wopsey and mama out on thare ears. Well, you doant need to git all worked up, sed Ma. 1 doant meen that T wud like a poodle dog any way. 1 guess I wud rather not have a dog while we stay in the city. That is a sensible way for my deer littel wife to talk, sed Pa. | know How to Shave, Safety ra2ors liave been but a mixed blessing; they have made men forget how to shave, Apart from that, even a safety razor can only he used in one way if the best results are to be obtained, Which ever kind of razor you use, you shou!d be careful always to shave with the run of the beard, Never shave against the grain; it is bad for the skin, the beard and the razor, A safety razor should be pressed flat against the face, and the action of a scythe should be imitated. That is to say, iustead of running the razar selves against evil persons and against themselves. If parents are to do this, they themselves must learn. And, learning, they must learn to teach. Not every father knows exactly how to begin talking to his boy, nor every mother how to talk to her daughter, in such a way as to safeguard every deli cate feeling and avoid starting the mind along tracks which it is not yet capable of following with intellectual and spiritual profit This society will help parents to help their children. * * - The tiny booklets published by the society are of priceless value. It may be said witah unfaltering conviction that no good father or loving mother, however well in formed, could give an hour to the reading of these “tracte for the times” without learning some thing. And no human being ex cept the depraved could read them without entertaining feel ings of the warmest admiration for the tact, discretion, judgment displayed. Could anything be bet ter to put into the hands of a boy than “The Four Sex Lles?”” Or anything more jpractical for par ents than “When and How to Tell Children?” lls it possible to im agine anything sweeter and saner than “How one mother told her child the secret of life?” Read these little booklets! The address of the society is Phelan Building, San Francisco. A pack age of literature will be sent free on application, L . . Social hygiene will have to be taught in the schools. It may be admitted that the teachers of the present day are not competent to teach. They have not been train ed for it. Another course is open. Medical men and women shonld be appointed to deliver addresses in the schools, medical men speaking to the boys, medical women to the girls. And these spe cial instructors should be chosen with a view to their fitness for the task. They should be ap pointed and controlled by the Board of Education. Their work should be properly paid for. Not very much will be accomplished until something of this kind is done. Before it can be done a body of opinion favoring it will have to be created. Men and women who are properly instructed will one day demand that city and State broaden the pathway of light. By WILLIAM F. KIRK. ‘you wud nevver be so silly as to make a speshul pet of a littel pup and neglect our littel Bobbie. [ rote a poem the other day, sed Pa, when 1 was setting in my office & doing nothing else. It was about this saim foolish love of a woman for a littel pet dog, & this is how it goes: When littel Johnnie was all washed up He washed his face in a china cup; The bathroom was locked and barred his path For littel Fido was taking a bath, When littel Fido was all washed up And asked for his morning bite and sup, He was given some dry old Johnny cake For littel Fido had speared the steak That nite, wen he wanted to go to bed “You must sleep on that rug!’ his mother said. “And don’'t wake Fido,” the boy was told, “Fido's in your bhed with an awful cold.” And littel Johnnie salid with a =igh “l wish I could catch a cold—and die.” Why, husband, sed Ma, I dident know you cud rite so well, You nevver reely appreshiated my geenyus, said Pa. [ have rote a lot of things that you made fun of, so I stopped showing my riteings to you. Pa, I sed, vou know you dident rite that. I saw Doc Brittain hand that to you & he told you he rote it. This morning 1 asked Pa for a quarter but 1 dident git it straight down the face, use a semi circular motion, Perhaps the mosi unportant part of a shave is the lathering. The more the heard is lathered the softer it will become; it is false economy to scamp this part of the performance in or der to save time or trouble, An ordinary razor should always be stropped before and after use, and the soap should be thoroughly taken off of it by hot water. A razor is all the better for a rest occasionally, Learn how to use & strop properly. The razoy strop should hang from a point not higher than the waist line, Shaving, and the care of a razor, is a science; and the man who can keep his razors in good condition is a man e be envied, especially in the winter, 15
