TEAGHING OF SEX TOCHILDREN URGED Unitarian Association Speak- er Would Instruct Boys and Girls as Young as Six. Teaching the principles of sex to children as young as 6 years was | urged today by Robert C. Dexter, sec- retary of the department of s T lations of the American Unitarian As- sociation, which is holding its second biennial conference at All Souls’ Church here. Dr. Dexter, who spoke at a group conference on socal rela- tions, scored “the stupidity of people who 'want to go back to the social jtandards of an outgrown genera- tion.” The trouble with the older genera- tion, he declared, is that it was brought up to regard sex as some- thing sacred that could not be dis- cussed naturally. The younger gen- eraton is wiser, and more wholesome, he said. The disappearance of artificial ties | that bound families together is a good | thing, he said, becatse it leaves fam- ily life dependent on affection alone. As for divorce, the increase means only that people have ceased to live together who ought to live apart, he | asserted. Would Quit Controversies. Dr. Dexter urged the church to| abandon controversies over atheism and other isms and to concentrate on ethics. Next to the home, churches are the places to learn about sex and social relatlons, he said. Cultivation of a love of beauty as the basis of an ethical system was ad- vocated by Carl B. Wetherell, head- master of Proctor Academy, Andover, N. H., In the conference on the re- ligion of youth. “A standard of living centered ‘upon authority or upon a mere cholce of right or wrong is dead- ly, he said, “but a standard fostered and maintained through a love for | beauty will mean a_complete living.” Young people will go to hear a | minister who “has the goods,” but | they won't go to church through fear of consequences, either in_this world or the next, Frederick T. McGill, jr., vice president of the Young People’s Religious Union said. They have too many respected uncles and aunts who ‘| don't go to church, he added. ‘The psychological sin of puritanism is that it distrusts expression of the inner life, Rev. Dr. Eugene Rodman Shippen = told the conference on pageantry and dramatics. Religious pageantry meets a hitherto unsatisfied craving for beauty and promotes religious unity, he said. This afternoon the :delegates and visitors to the conference are guests of All Souls' Church on automobile sightseeing trips, and tonight the Young People’s Religious Union will give a dinner at the church. Chiet Justice Taft will preside at the sessibn tonight, at which George W. Wickersham will be the principal speaker. Sces Peril in Future, The anti-evolution agitation on the part of the fundamentalists is a “pathetic expression of the fear lest the spiritual view of life perish from off the face of the earth,” Rev. Dr. Horace Westwood, chairman of the, general conference committee, de- clared at last night's meeting. “Modern man is coming to the question whether or not religion has {any place in modern society, whether or not it is a good thing in the prog- ress of mankind,” he said. “The tragedy i3 not only' that men have ceased to believe, but that they have ceased to care. This is not simply an aftermath of war. It is the fruit of the process that began with the dawn of a scientific era.” Dr. Westwood declared there was a deadiy peril for the future in the de- cline of faith in spiritual values. No group is better equipped to serve in the crisis than the Unitarians, small as they are, he said. Other speak last night were Rev. Dr. Louis C. Cornish, president of the Unitarian Association, and Rev. Dr. Samuel A. Eliot of Boston.
