Shannon, of Deleware, Ohio, president of the' Practical Eugenics Movement and editor of Eugenics Magazine, who has been lecturing in the city all this week under the aus pices of the City Y. M. C. A., gave a very forceful talk in chapel Wednesday morning February 21, on the "Double Standard of Mor als for Men and Women." Dr. Shannon explained how this "Women do right" and "men do as they please" idea came into being in the primitive ages, when man, as owner and master of his physical inferiors, found ibprofit able that she be good. He showed with connection, how in modern times this prevails, and is foster ed by that powerful force, called public opinion. "Change public opinion in regard to those things, " said Dr. Shannon in part , "aid you will have solved the prob lem." The faculty and student body enjoyed the speaker's taik very much. "Don't call me professor; just plain 'Mister'," Prof. Clarence Perkins of the department of European history at Ohio State tells his classes. "The word 'pro fessor' has such a doubtful mean ing.
