ans of the State Industrial school,
last tevening at a banquet addressed
the representatives of eight men's
clubs of that many ohurches in Hf
city, Mr Simokln talkiug on the
question ot "Our Duty in Regard to
the Declining Moral Standard" and
Mr. Gowans addressing himself to
the subject of "Sex Education " Theri
were about sixty people in attendance
and all were well pleased Rev. W
V Fleetwood of the Church of the
Good Shepherd acted as toastma6tei
"The Declining Moral Standard
topic was recentl hi ought up at the
meeting of the Associated Boys' club
in Ogden and the lastor considered
that Ii was proper to again discuss it
Mr Simpkln called attention to the
many ells of the day that lead to h.
lowering of the moral standard, stat
ing that they were found in the dance
hall and in the afes where laxity pre
vails and loose practies are indulged
In.
Me laid great stress on the fact
that habits of dress of today have
reached a point that is alarming In
their Influence toward moral degrada
tion and that there ihould be a cor
I rectlou in some forcefnl w-ay, if the
people of the world wero to hope to
rise to a higher plain or morality
Briefh he said:
"The title is terrific, terrific be
cause of its suggestion that in the
freest land on earth, in the country
of common culture and privilege, tn
a nation whose- history began in one
of the mo9t remarkable religious
communities of all time, a history
that has been marked by outbursts i
and sacrifices of the truest altruism.
I in a great Christian republic, we
face the suggestion of a declining
! moral standard.
I "It Is alike terrific in Its other
I suggestion, that we have a duty re
! gardlng this condition, a dut that
' has urgency, not alone because of
the individual Hcs that are worth
I so much more than our best esti
j mates, but that nothing is surer in
j all the written experience of the
world lhat this that an ascendant
I and enlarging morality is the sole
i guarantee of the permanence of lib
erty and government. Personally
there Is no question In my own mind
as to the truth of the grae charge
that lies In the subject allotted to
me. It Is not my task just now to
prove the church Neither In this
I hour can we follow the rootings of
the tendencies that have flowered In
J the things that lend sanction to the
: saddening fact we note in the de
cline of a moral sense and, that Is,
of a moral standard
"The problem Is not the reforms
I tlon of society alone, it Is the vision
I that see6 a generation trained in the
i old ideals of honor, purity and In
tegrity. Of course that comes pri
marily in the restoration of the home.
' We must bring parenthood to see
I that of patient, loving and courage
ous sacrifice or tne winnigueos
J gaze with breaking heart on the mod
j ern Moloch fire that greedily de
I vours our fairest, most precious thing
"No Sundaj school, religion class
or other institution can take the
place of parenthood In the formation
of character."
"The school needs, too. the touch."
said Dr Simpkln. "I am a believer
in a separate class with women
teachers for the girls and men for
the bo.is Our school life, too, should
be stripped of everything excepting
the simple work of education, wimple
and modest dress, and there should
be tho banishment of amusements,
with the most careful supervised play
and athletic hours."
He spoke of the "tremendous de
cadence of modesty moraled In the
apparel of the up-to date woman and
in her new habits the realism of the
stage, the emergency or rather the
reversion of degrad.ng and barbaric
forms of the dance, the life that re
vels In the cabaret and the saloon
cafes of our cities, the alarming pre--alence
of youthful d?pravlty and sex
ual pollution, the persistence of tnat
materialism thaf counts life lo be
only svorth while a:i It Is spent for I

asked
' We had every reason to believe
we could earn out these negutia

would have been to take care of the
Frisco's condition for some time to
come These negotiations involved
the sale of a half interest iu the Chi

l6...ctory to the management. It would
have tided us over, together with the
good prospect e had for a satisfac
tory deal for Arizona and Now Mexi- i
co lands, and everything pointed to
a deal for six or seven millions dol
lars, which would have solved tho
trouble "
Mr. Yoakum said that the Chicago.

heavily by the deal through which it
acquired control of the 'Frisco In
