U, HOLDS ANNUAL MEETING Local Organization Holds Out door Meeting at Paxtang Park Members of the Harrisburg W. C. T. U. held their annual outing at Paxtang Park to-day. A specially fine out of doors meeting was held this af ternoon im the theater of the park with Mrs. W. H. Cooper county super intendent of the open air meetings presiding, and Mrs. Violet Hollar Bol lan, Mrs. John De Gray, Mrs. Harry Leonard, Mrs. Charles King and Le ray Bowers Harnish as participants in the program. Mr. Harnish, the principal speaker of the afternoon and State superintendent of the Pennsyl vania Federation, took as the subject of his address, "Leper Spots," in which he describes the work of World's Purity Fed eration in overcoming the white slave traffic . In an Inimitable and eloquent speech he plead for sex instruction and an uncompromising attitude against this terrible and systematized crime. Mr. Harnish said, in part: "The World's Purity Federation and the committee out of which it grew have been at work since 1900, and represents the first real organized ef fort in North America, In a national and international sr>nse, for the eradi cation of the traffic in women, the white slave traffic, the annihilation of public vice, for a. higher and single standard of morals, and the safe and sane instruction of our young in so cial hygiene. The slogan of the World's Purity Federation is that, "The white slave traffic and public vice can and must be annihilated." The federation employs three meth ods of attack on this problem: Edu cation, law enactment and enforce ment, and remedial work. By means of education the feder ation aims to have the parents teach the child sex truths properly before he is taught the vile and uglv espects of these truths by his ill-taught com panions. It aims to have the State provide a man and a woman to teach these truths to the parents of the next generation, now in the colleges, nor mal N schools, and academies, they bring the instruction down into the high schools as soon as the public is willing to sympathize and co-operate with such a plan. The principal cause is the double standard of morals. The boy must 1 not see a fallen woman ostracised and a man whom he knows to be immoral admitted to the hearthstone, invited to tea, allowed to take the daughter to the theater and finally marry her. Such conduct on the part of the par ents says to the boy, "You can be and may do just as you please, but your sister must be as pure as an angel." Another cause is dress. Would that parents would see to it that their chil dren were properly dressed. The good and virtuous girls and women are not different in appearance than that great cosmopolitan company of those gone wrong. Many good and virtuous girls and women are accosted for denizens of the underworld because of the similarity of their dress, paint, and earrings. The child does not know the pitfalls and dangers, because of lack of sex instruction. Toung girls who dance at home are attracted by the great white way, the blazing lights, gaiety, and apparent happiness of the immoral dance halls, which in many instances lead to the girls' downfall. At dances given by lodges, charity halls, literary societies and National Guard fairs, the speaker has seen the modern dance danced in that same indescent, ill-positioned, sin-tempting way to hell through the door of the dance. The man who believes in a segre gated district, let him invite the dis trict to be placed next door to his home, rather than in the slums among the poor people of the city. Any man who favors segregation is one of three things: he is ignorant, misinformed, or vicious. What right has anv man to say whose sister shall be compelled to live that life?
