viii THE NEXT GENERATION 



depend on what the young people of the land know and do not know 

 concerning certain diseases which are so closely connected with evil 

 that, until recently, their names have not been so much as mentioned 

 except by scientists, doctors, and nurses. 



ADVICE FOR GIRLS 



The following was written about girls in England and for their special 

 use, but it applies equally well to girls everywhere else. I quote the 

 words as given. 



" No girl can afford to accept attentions from any unknown man, how- 

 ever well dressed or well mannered he may be. This is especially true 

 when girls are traveling from city to city, or from one part of a city to 

 another part of the same city. 



" Many girls have been entrapped into white slavery in England 

 during the past months through the most diabolical methods. A woman 

 dressed as a professional nurse has trapped a number. Men white slavers 

 with drugged handkerchiefs or drugged flowers have trapped many. 

 One large telephone company has issued warnings to all young women 

 operators, telling them to pay no attention to messages received over 

 the wires calling them to certain places on account of the illness of a 

 relative or friend, etc." 



One society has sent out printed warnings. Every girl in every 

 country should give heed to them. The following are the warnings : 



" Never speak to strangers, either men or women, in the street, in 

 shops, in stations, in trains, in lonely country roads, or in places of 

 amusement. 



" Never ask the way of any but officials on duty, such as policemen, 

 railway officials, or postmen. 



" Never loiter or stand about alone in the streets, and if accosted by 

 a stranger (whether man or woman), walk as quickly as possible to the 

 nearest policeman. 



" Never stay to help a woman who apparently faints in the street, 

 but call a policeman at once. 



" Never accept an invitation to join a Sunday School or Bible class, 

 given by strangers, even if they are wearing a clerical dress. 



" Never accept a ride offered by a stranger in a motor, a taxicab, or 

 a vehicle of any description.
