Boys and Girls of Today Better; Professor of Ethics Explains Why By MILLER HOLLAND International News Service Staff Correspondent San Francisco, Nov. 12.—The youth of a generation or so ago was morally worse than the youth of today in the opinion of Dr. Lynn T. White, pro fessor of social ethics in the San L Francisco Theological Sept inary of f- the Presbyterian Church. And not only that. Dr. White says, but It is unfair to compare the morSls of today’s younger generation wiA those of the generation of thirty years ago. "It is unsportsmanlike, to put it mildly,” Dr. White “for us who did not have autos, movies, ra dios, flying machines and jaxs or chestras when we were young, to huri vitnriqlic bolts at the boys and girls j who are the first generation in bis ’ tory to have these things and who have not yet learned to use them In moderation.” Generation Improved , There is no doubt about it, Dr. White believes, but that the present younger generation is more intelli gent. more thoughtful, and cleaner than the generation of thirty years or so ago. Regarding the much talked of de l generation and wildness among col lege students. Dr. White says: ' "The undergraduates In our col leges and ’universities have already been educated beyond the moral stand ards of the alumni. “A clergyman friend of mine col lided to me’ that shortly before he left California to attend the UOtb an niversary of his college in the east, he received three circular letters from undergraduate organisations beseech ing him not to adorn bis person with 0 a hip pocket flask when he returned for the celebrationSf’ Dr. Arthur Walter Scott, veteran principal of the Girls’ High -School The Concord Daily Tribune North Carolina’s Leading Small City Daily iSKELEMTIK BT STUDENTS MUST J BE UNDER CONTROL e Raleigh Police Chief En r ters Protest to Policies r in Vogue With State Col lege Students.

Nov. 12. —Although; there were many I'aings taken up at I the state convention of the North ‘Carolina Congress of Parents and Teachers, which dosed its three-day session here last night after an in i spiring address on the subject of j i “World (t ide Parenthood” by Dr. El-j ! bert Russel, of Duke University, in! w hich the principle at universal j i brothet'aood was stressed as the basis ! for more successful parenthood, it was : ; perhaps in the round table discussions 1 j dealing with child problems, met by every parent every day in the home, that the 350 delegates to the conven tion derived the greatest benefit. The j reason for this is that these discus j sions. instead of being theoretical gen eralizations. eame more nearly meet-j I ing the individual need of each par- j ' cut at the convention, than any oth-1 ! er. i And because the success or failure 1 of a chilli in school and in later life ; j too. depends very largely on the health i land physical condition of that, child, j .the discussions dealing r with child.

And while underweight is an unmistakable symptom, there are many other symp toms. Children who look tired, have rings under their eyes, round should ered or stooped, are usually in this condition because they are under nourished, according to Dr. Albert S. Root, child specialist of Raleigh, in his discussion of malnutrition and proper food for the growing tfiild. ! There are of course a large number ! of causes of malnutrition, most of j which can be included in four major I causes, which Dr. Root gave ns (1) i physical defects, (2) lack of control ; of home. (3) fatigue, due to over ex j oration in play or at school and (4) food, whether balanced or unbalanced. For the correction of malnutrition the extensive use of a vegetable diet I was urged, and the substitution of whole wheat bread for bread made from white flour was declared to be essential. Rabbits fed on bread made; from white flour, with no other food, j die yi from two to three weeks, ex-! 1 periments have shown, while if they are fed on whole wheat bread, they j thrive, become fat and sleek and live j j indefinitely.
