Yet it is a ! palest blaroeable fact that govern fifients and statesmen have shut their I probing investigating eyes to the ex istence of conditions that have bro i ught about this state of things. A Government which has allowed and : sanctioned the human ramllv t<r go ion marrying and inter- marrying, sp j reading and' inflicting its people w-ith I disease deformity, mental defective, .half men. has caused more suffering 'and death than all the wars of the world. During the last world war | when the selective Draft boards were , functioning all over our country, the writer had the opportunity thrust up on him of examining hundreds and hundreds-'fcf rwrr young men who were called to service for thei^ country and it was distressing to find so many of them w bo could not qualify on ac count of some mental or physical we akness. the result of a taint transmit ted from their parents, in tact, how few of the large number of them were 10^ per cent efficient-Fit- Some wri ter has said that there are too many feeble minded in our race? A Fact. In our public schools in the Inited Stat es and especially in our larger cities too many children are eternally below par. Segregated into rooms where thev grow up to become vagrants and criminals The city of Boston had in Kr public schools 77 rooms devoted exclusively to the backward children. Their children who wlli be legion will be below par What kind of a clti- ] sen ship ran we hope to obtain from the*? incompetents? If marriage is guarded from disease and its erects, precious few children are born with distinct Inclinations for crime, but a sorry lot of them are bom every day with tc? meagre brains to make a liv ing in ttoe path of virtue Humphries says or asks how many come so far on thr Ia, to racial degeneracy without any attempt to check themselves Many he thinks becanse of a pious horror of Interfering with the rights of par enthood The place and wiy to pro tect aud prevent these conditions, save and husband our rare and family.

Mr. Wells wr iting in the Saturday Kvening Post | states in one of his articles' on the salvage of Civilization, that one of the causes of the tumbling down of our civilization, and tumbling down fast, is the failure to controll vice. The handling of infectious disease and 'the surpression of international crim inals.

I believe that as a result of the I war we are keener to oascrve and bol der to speak of and try to discover. I prevent and correct wrong. Years ago we were too modest, ashamed "to speak out in meeting as it were." The mention of Veneral disease was tabooed. spoken of with bated breatii ,The romance of marriage was heralrt ed and acclaimed to poute society the world over, but as to there being any reason why these romantic or any ot her marriage should not be censored xvr the parties contracting the bond should not be examined to prevent the transmission of evil of mind and body "Nothing doing." The improvement betterment, infact the salvation of our race rests on the shoulders of the phy sicians. teachers and our statesmen We can have a sturdy race in mind and body if we will only do the work in hand. God created ma?n iii his own image witb a mind like nls. a body like his own an<l sirrrounded him with ev erything a rfiind and. body.^apable of' utilizing these things and developing both up to a degree, that will approx imate diety itself.

Let us do it in the future with more interest, zeal and determination and try to save our race.
