and dogs as Rand Carver and 0.
/ Y. Ina recent issue of the Courier,
Journal, ''Bab" has the following
to say regarding these human and

my dear woman, teach your
boy or your girl to love God hes
cause He is good and kind; TO love
his mother because she can tell
him all about whatever he wants to
know; and to respect and honor his
father because he is a man, and
God made man in His own image.
According to ii new prophet, you
have got just two years to do it all
in, but you are II mighty poor wo*
man If you can't gain that boys
love in d week, and You are not fit
to be a mother If you can't mold his
opinions ia a month. Not with
helfire and pitchforks- oh, dear,
no But with love and c0nSidera-

worked up whenever l see a dog or
child hit, and feel like making a
big break down to the Capitol,
making them stop their ldiotic
talk, letting the women suffrage

the two,legged and the four legged
children.
You needn't scott at the four
legged ones; they are mighty good
friends-they know how to keep
your secrets"
