EATON STAFF HONOR MEMBER PRIOR TO HER MARRIAGE The staff of the T. Eaton Company at a dinner in the Grand Cafe on Saturday, January 14th, presented Miss Fern Dulmage with a beautiful walnut Windsor chair as a token of their friendship for Miss Dulmage, who is to be married on the 28th of this month, Bill Murrell, caught in Los An- geles, didn't know his brother had been hanged, Another of the "Maternal Urge Cannot Be London, Jam. 18.~"1 say very clearly that, birth control has wrecked bers Bt (Ariages lice Haute! the sald Dr. Great Ormond Street Hospital, in Col "Birth control," added Dr. Hutchison, "wrecks marriages be- cause the maternal urge cannot be quenched so easily, If you put a difficulty in the way of that urge you will find women harboring a feeling of animosity against their husbands. 5 "There is a real difficulty at the present time because of the expense of dringuag up children, and the use of birth control ia producing that terrible monstrosity the only child. "We may come to speak mot of dvink, but_of 'only echildism' as the greatest curse of this country." Dr. Hutchison added that they wanted to see children absolutely break the tie of dependence on their mothers, . "There is far too much domina- tion in parenthood; too much in. terference with the child's devel- opment, This domination goes to such lengths in some families that the children are not allowed to contradict their parents, and they are not allowed opinions of their own. They are mot even allowed to have a different religion from their parents, "Children must be released to develop their own religious beliefs and their own way of worship. We must give children freedom of aec- tion, and the more freedom we give them the better citizens they will become." FLAPPER AGE PAYS HEAVILY FOR FADS Chicago, Jan, 17.--Flappers are paying a heavy tell for the fads which call for slender forms and late hours; causing the eating of too little nourishing food and over fatigue, and resulting in tubercu- losis and allied diseases, This, according to Director Raw- lings of the Illinois Department of Health, who says that tuberculo- sis is 42 per cent, greater among girls' and young women, 10 to 35 years of age, than among men of the same age. Mortality, he says, has declined sharply in all groups raising of the marriage age in Groat Britain Sm Sxsive I Ie "Lady Astor in a back seat!™ . "Surely not!" yes, here I am," she re- "I am a modest violet in my old age." Lady Astor accused Sir Willlam of being respomsible for the issu- ing of a very "feeble and disap- pointing circular" on the matter. "We are a little tired of Home Office circulars," she said. "We dont want to be disagreeable, Ul Sir William: "Lady Astor, you could not be." "I might be offensive, but not disagreeable," was the swift re- ply. RH ye Miss Eleanor Rathbone said it wgs true that very few individuals in Britain married under the age of fifteen, In 1924 the total was nineteen, but in 1926 the number had increased to thirty-four in the case of girls. It was regrettable that Great Britain was among the most backward countries in the matter, Even in China and Egypt the marylage age was sixteen for women and either sixteen or eigh- teen for men, The bad example set by Britain had its repercus- sion in places lke India. . 'Replying, the Home Secretary said the question was fraught with difficulties, For the last twelve years, 1915 to 1926 . inclusive, there had been no marriages of individuals ander the age of thir- teen, There had been only three marriages under the age of four. teen, thirty marriages under the age of fifteen, but 292, including male and female, under the age of sixteen, The whole difficulty was that in the majority of cases of girls un- der sixteen who married there were urgent reasons for the marriage. Tn the present state of publie opin- fon there would perhaps be an out- ery against disallowing young peo- ple to marry under such circum- stances. Fresh legislation would mean that the Home Secretary would be placed in the difficult position of having to decide who should be allowed to nifarry or who not, Sir Willlam invited the women to form a committee to con- sult with his department on the the most Teas Like luscious | tion of the Departmental Commit. tee on sexual offences against young persons, Sir William said it Was probable that he would spend his Christmas holidays drafting a Bill embodying some of the re- commendations of the Committee.
