THE SAME CODE SHOULD BE DE
MANDED OF BOTH SEXES,
IT IS SAID,
FOR PROTECTION OF GIRLS
The Religious Educational Associa
tion Places Itself On Record as
Favoring Advance. Selfish Moth
ers Are Blamed.
CLEVELAND, Ohio.—The Relig
ious Educational Association, during
its tenth annual session here, embod
ijed in its declaration of principle this
appeal:
“We call upon all morally earnest
citizens to stand with us for the
single standard of sexual morality;
for the protection of girls from temp
tations and the punishment of the
destroyer; for every economic or so
cial measure that provides the neces
sary conditions for normal family |
life and for graded sex instruction
for all boys and girls.” |
A survey of religious progress for
the last ten vears covering the life of
the Religious Educational Associa
tion, was read by the general secre
tary, Dr. Cope, in response to a I'e-}
quest made by the association one‘
year ago.
* “The most important change,” 1191
sai! ‘“consists in ti’e national.and in
ternational recognition of the mean
ing of religious education, whereas
ten vears ago the coneeption was held
by a small group of persons.
“The aims of the association are
no lenger vague, but have bkcome a
wel! defined program. Out of sixty
three theological schools fifty are
preparing for the specific work m‘l
religious education in the Sunday
school and church, ten are doing
some work, and only three seem in
different. There are now seventy
five paid professional directors of re
ligious education working in as
many churches. Forty-eight colleges
are teaching Biblical literature.
“Politics has caught the same spir
it, and the terms ‘social service,
‘social justice,” ‘a chance to live,’
have come into current use.”
Mrs. Orville Bright of Chicago,
vice president of the National Con
gress of Mothers, said:
“The object of our schools is the
training of the young in character
and rot in the cramming of their,
minds with facts. We ought to aban
don the examination system alto
gether. I
“Our beautiful school buildings |
ought to be used in the evening forl
entertainments manual training and]
various kinds of social gatherings."‘i
Mothers Are Censured.
Philadelphia.—Many social work
ers in Philadelphia believe there is a
good deal of mawkish sentiment in
some of the disclosures made recent
ly by the Illinois state senate com
missicn, in whieh it was attempted to
blame low wages for vice conditions.
Mrs. Isabel Kennedy, assistant secre
tary of the Pennsylvania Home
Teaching Society, pins the responsi
bility for fallen womanhood upon the
selfish American mothers, who do
not teach their girls that death is
preferable to the ‘‘easiest way.”
Mrs. Kennedy has great faith in
the early home training, which, she
says, should make a girl adamant
concerning her honor.
She deplores the selfish mothers
who do not take the trouble to know
exactly what their daughters are
reading who their friends are and
where they go.
“Keep your girls innocent and
they will be protected through the
sheer strength of their virtue,” she
says. Mrs. Kennedy suggests that
orphans under 18 or girls who are
unable to live at home should be
wards of the city or state until they
reach their majority.
CENTENARIANS, : ;
The Richer the Country the F(‘\\'(‘ri
Persons Attain Old Age. :
Statistics gathered by the pains-i
taking Germans state that there were |
in Europe at the last count more than |
7.000 persons over a century old.}
The richer the country, apparently,
the fewer persoms attain extreme old!
age. Bulgaria heads the list with
3,888 centenarians, with its neigh
bors, Roumania and Servia, next with
1.704 and 573. Spain had 410 and
France 213: no other country had
over 200: England had only 92, and
the three Scandinavian states were
at the bottom of the list, Denmark
having only 2. Evidently the Bal
kans, scene of almost constant war
for the last century, are the most
likely place in which to attain old
age.

INCOME TAX TO BE FIXED
One and One-Half Per Cent Will e
About the Rate, and It May Apply
to Incomes of $3,500,
WASHINGTON. Representatives
Underwood, Hull, Peters and Palmer
met again today as a subcommittee
to study the administrative provis
ions of the new tariff bills and the
income tax plan.
While members of the democratic
majority of the ways and means com
mittee differ on what the income tax
should be it was indicated that they
would agree on a tax of from one
to one and a half per cent on in
comes upward of $5,000 a year and
might agree to make the tax appli
cable to incomes as low as $3,500,
Chairman Underwood and his col
leagues have been studying the Brit
ish system, where the lowest charge
is a fraction over one per cent.
BIG PAWN SHOP BOBBERY
Jewelry and Precious Stones Valued
at $500,000 Were Stolen, Gems
Worth $700,000 Overlooked.
A robbery whose magnitude, al
though great, is superseded by the
anxiety of the small depositors in
volved, is engaging the attention of
the New York police. It was com
mitted at the pawnshop of Martin
Simons & Sons at Eldridge and Hes
ter streets. Jewelry, precious stones
and collateral valued at $500,000
were stolen and gems valued at
$700,000 were overlooked. A panic
ensued among those who had articles
in pawn, and they nearly mobbed
the place Monday, when the yobbery
was made public. Under the law
pawn brokers are not liable for loss
through fire, burglary or moths, and
the holders of pawn tickets are los
ers. Entrance te the vault was se
cured by digging through a wall in
the next building. That the burg
lars were familiar with the situation
is proved by the fact that they clev
erly avoided the electric alarm wires.

THE DAWSON NEWS
DEATH AND DESTRUCTION ARE
SPREAD BROADCAST BY TER
RIBLE HURRICANE.
SUDDENNESS WAS STARTLING
From the Gulf to the Lakes Storm
King Raged, Killing People and
Wrecking Houses. Damage Runs
Into the Millions.
More than 100 persons were killed
and hundreds more injured, some
mortally, by a storm of tornado in
tensity which raged over Central,
Western, Southern and parts of East
ern states Friday. Property damage
will run well info the millions.
Definite advices have been receiv
ed accounting for at least 70 per
sons dead, with reports from points
cut off from wire communication byf
the storm adding to the list. |
Reports from Alabama show the'
loss of life was heaviest in that state,
the number of dead there being
placed at 60. Two towns, 'l‘homas-f
ville and Lower Peaf‘htree, were
practically wiped out. Two are deadi
in Indiana, two in Tennessee, two inl
Ohio, two in New York, one in .\lich-‘
igan and one in Louisiana. f
Accompanying the list of deathsi
‘are estimates of injured totaling
‘more than 200, with additions com
ing in at intervals. |
| Came Out of Southwest. !
Coming out of the Southwest ear- |
ly Friday morning, just as spring was!
ushered in, the storm swept with‘
startling suddenness diagonally
across the country from Northern |
Texas to Western Pennsylvania aml!
New York, bisecting the Mississippi |
valley and moving nartheastward |
across the Ohio into the great lake |
region.
Shifting winds of gerat violence, !
accompanied in various sections hyé
snow, sleet and hail, :'hal‘ar-tel‘izml}
the storm, easily the most (iestl‘u(:tive]
of the year and rarely equaled in |
the extent of its sweep and damage.
Buildings toppled before the blow in
nearly a dozen states and death lay |
all along in its wake. |
The property loss was heavy along |
the storm's track. Besides demolish- |
ing or unroofing buildings and felling
trees the high wind, rain, hail and
sleet did serious damage to early|
crops, according to reports from
some of the affected sections. Esti-|
mates of damage to property from |
Indiana and Michigan alone aggre
gate $2,000,000, about evenly divid- |
ed between the two states. Early |
reports of losses ranging from $25,-’|
000 to $500,000 or more from sec-|
tions of the storm region indicated |
that the total would reach large fig-f
ures. }
Wires Were Down Everywhere. |
Wires fell in all directions before |
the blow. Not in many years has |
there been such prostration of tele- |
grapn and telephone service. Chi-|
cago was cut off for hours fmm{
communication with points east.
Only by devious routes was connec
tion finally established. .\'ormal&.
traffic was seriously delayed in manyr
districts where wire communication
was crippled and washouts occurred.E
The wind that w’u)ed out so muchi
property and cost so many lives at-|
tained record velocities at some{
points. Figures given by the weath-4
er bureau in Washington showed that i
at Detroit it reached 88 miles au|
hour, a new record ih that city; R4i
miles at Toledo: 88 miles an hour at|
Buffalo; Memphis 64 miles an hour|
and Louisville 52 miles. |

French Market Coffee
Has Never Been Successfully Imitated
It Cannot Be
OFFEE roasted the ordinary way is only
partially roasted, according to French
ideals. The French Market Coffee way
is the scientific way, producing a perfect roast.
Slowly—carefully—the roasting goes on until
exactly the right moment arrives.
The slow roast reduces about 10 per cent
more weight than the ordinary roast.
All excess of oil vanishes. Yet the delicate
flavor and aroma is there, intensified and en
hanced.
Chilled, Ground and
Hermetically Sealed
IRECT from the roasters, the coffee is
chilled in a cold-air-blast machine. This
chilling closes the pores of the bean, thus
preventing a single breath of the entrancing
aroma to escape in the vapors.

Dawson Woman’s Club Notes
Against the deeper law it is we
wao are the transgressors. ‘‘Th2y
reason ill who leave me out,”” may
be said of Nature as well as of the
spirit. And when ‘‘the children were
left out in the planning of our cities,”
when we closed Nature's path against
the growing child, we made it mati
ematically certain thet he shouic
seek some other path or cease to
grow at,all. If opportunity for play
is dénied and by just so far as it is
denied stunting and perversion are
the absolutely inevitable results.
Group games are the best schooll
of citizenship that exists. In playing,
these games the boy is not going !
through the forms of (‘itizenship—l
learning parliamentary law, raising;
points of order and moving the pre
vious question—he is being initiated
into its essence, actually and in u!
vivid way participating in the thing
itself. He is undergoing the actual
and habitual experience of losing the
sense of his own individuality in that
of a larger whole—experiencing citi
zenship, not learning about it.
It is the thing you do the hardest
‘that produces the most enduring ef
fects; your deepest experience leaves
the deepest crease. It is not in the
'school room but on the ball field
'that the boy's real life, the part of
'iit most serious to him, is passed.

Famous for Over r
a Hundred Years ®
VEN when French Market Coffee could be
had only in the old French Market at New
Orleans, over a hundred years ago, it was
celebrated all over the South.
Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay and other fa
mous men of olden times visited the French
Market to enjoy the rarely delicious beverage.
But now you all may serve it daily on your
own table.
For the rare old French blend has been per
petuated by the French Market Mills, and the
