MORAL EDUCATION WILL CURE WORLD
Public education and Christian civilization offer the only solution for the many problems now confronting the United States and the world. Prof. Karl Knopf, formerly of the Fullerton Junior college, now connected with religious educational work of the Methodist church, stated in an address at the assembly of the Fullerton high school this morning, Prof. Knopf brot with him a number of lantern slides with which he took his hearers on an imaginary trip around the world, vividly supplementing picture for the conditions in various parts of the world.
He showed that human slavery is still being practiced in parts of Africa and South America under the approval of white men and white men's governments. He particularly flayed the British government of South Africa on this score for counteracting the working of slaves in the mines of the Johannesburg district. Comparative pictures show conditions a few generations and centuries ago are not greatly improved today except where the touch of Christianity has been felt. Pictures comparing conditions where the missionaries have been fortunate enough to obtain influences over the people with places where they have not were shown.
One half of the human race, he declared, is without a knowledge of medicine, surgery and sanitation. The greatest opportunity for those of every class who desire to work in foreign lands and are prepared for the task is here, he said. There is famine in China and in India where the most primitive methods are used in irrigation and yet by the American methods of irrigation the land could be made to sustain 17 times as many people, he declared.
He told of the deplorable condition of women in the Orient. In the Mohammadan world they are kept cooped up all their lives and cannot go even on the street without a veil over their faces so that no man except their husbands may behold their faces. The woman is believed by these to have no soul and to have been made only for man's pleasure and convenience. It is not unusual in those countries for a man to litch his wives and daughters to the plow and make them drag the plow like oxen. In India which is not Mohammedan but as bad or worse, girls and boys are often married at the age of four at a girl reaches marriage she these girl will bands by dead committed so brot upon them are held slave family of the It is not for a man to wife for three prettiest one no "say" in.

age of four and five years old and if a girl reaches the age of 11 without marrying she is an old maid. If these girls wives lose their boy husbands by death they are said to have committed some sin that this was brot upon them and for this reason are held slaves all their lives by the family of the deceased husband.
It is not unusual in the Orient for a man to be able to purchase a wife for three or four dollars, the prettiest ones, too, and the girl has no "say" in the matter.
But coming back from foreign lands, Prof. Knopf found that conditions in America are far from being everything that they might be. For instance, we have a large foreign population that has never been educated to the American methods of thinking. Then, we have the poor people of the cities, the inhabitants of the slums, the textile workers and the men out of work who must be dealt with. New York city has a population larger than that of the 11 western frontier states, including Cal., and many of the inhabitants live from hand to mouth and in the worst housing conditions imaginable. Bred in such conditions and brot up in back alleys what can be expected of them?
"I believe I am safe in saying there is not a criminal within the sound of my voice," Prof. Knopf said, "but if you were placed in such conditions there are a great many within the sound of my voice who would become criminals—not all of you, but many of you." Boy bandits should be educated, as that is the only way out of the entanglement.
"The world is not what it was before the war—it will never be again. It must be remade. And all of us must put our shoulders to the wheel and assist in making it a better world in which to live," he concluded.

MUST STOP AT CROSSINGS
Drivers of all of the Fullerton high school buses will be required to stop at the railroad crossing whether or not there is a train in sight. L. E. Plummer, principal of the Fullerton high school, said this morning. This has been decided upon because of the recent fate of the Anaheim high school bus which fortunately was not loaded, and is strictly a "safety first" measure, he said.

CONFESS SWAPPED LIFE WITH DOUBLE
DENVER, Feb. 18—A strange release only to be re-arrested by Boulder officee on similar charges.
He is now in jail in Boulder.
In her confession the four-day bride, who is only 17, says she is not Mildred Gardner, whom Kelly believed he was marrying, but her "double," Dolly Green, a New York chorus girl with whom the real Miss Gardner "traded lives" last November.
According to the confession, Dolly Green, the real Mildred Gardner, is now in San Francisco, employed by a theatre magazine.
Miss Green swears her love for Kelly and declares that Miss Gardner does not love him.
"My name is Dolly Green," she confessed. "My home is in Okron, O.I met Mildred Gardner in Dallas, Tex., and we looked so much alike that we decided to change names, sweethearts—in fact, lives. We were tired of the lives we were living."
