I SEXEQUALITY No Equality Until Girls Are i Welcomed Like Boys 1 London (United Press)—"When the average mother really wants a baby daughter as much as a sou then we shall have equality between the sexeses. Until that happens Pari la me nt ary ( measures will be of no use at all." ( This statement was made by Dr. ( Srichton Miller at u conference of Health Visitors and School Nurses at Bedford College for Women. He declared that effeminacy in a man is often due to his mother’s wish for a daughter instead of a son. ‘ A case like that, which is rare, is tragic from the point of view of the boy." he said. "1 have seen one of the most hopelessly effeminate persons in a boy of twenty-four years as a result of this. "He was a fourth son and his mother had wanted a girl, and so tried to make him into a girl. Some day an unfortunate young woman may be persuaded to marry that young man. and she will awake to the realization that she has married a wife instead of a husband. “Then we have the far more common case of the girl who was to have been a boy Otten enough in our civilization the girl feels a sense of inferiority for being a girl. You try to alter all this by giving them the vote and admitting them to the Bar, but that is futile. "The chief concern is what the mo ther has four-a qio’SHRDL T mother values most. If the mother has four daughters and wants a son. there is bound to be inferiority. Probably out of that batch of four number one will escape. Sometimes number four will escape because she is the youngest, but numbers two and three are almost certain to incur that disappointment on the part of the mother, and the children get to know this and immediately feel that sense of inferijrlty” o — PREPARE FOR CONFIRMATION (CONTINUED FROM TAOR ONE) I an Palm Sunday, April 10.

It is the function of the kidneys to filter impurities from the blooxl and ; cast them out in the form of urine, but in many instances the bowels ere1J ate more toxins and impurities than l.the kidneys can eliminate; then the blood uses the skin pores as the next ,'best means of getting rid of these 'impurities, which often break out all '[over the skin in the form ot pimples. • The surest way to clear the skin of . ■ these erup'aons, says a noted author- , ’ity is to get from any pharmacy al»out four ounces of Jad Salts and take a 1 tables-poonful in a glass of water each • morning before breakfast for one week.
