The Drawbacks to Maternity

By Mrs. FLORA I. NEFF, president cmsc County und3 ". C Tu.
~ @ long as the duties of fatherhood rest SO LIGHTLY upon
- the shoulders Of American men, 50 long as they sanction the
~ murder of one-ffth Of our boys by the rum traffic and license
OTHER MILLS OF DEATH for the slaughter annually
Of tens of thousands of daughters, 50 long as they refuse to clean up
this country moraLy-for 1t III within THEIR power to do so-just SO
long will the thoughtful women rghteously FEAR to assume the
grave responsibilities Of maternity
When man ceases to dwarf himself on tobacco and other maig-
nant vices; when he becomes chivalrc enough to admit the Justice and
necessity Of "a white life FOR TWO" for the rearing of healthy
and happy children; when he learns the economy Of spending moro
money for bread than for denominations, THEN will woman ador-
ingy arise and call him her blessed protector and will CHEER
FULLY AND CONTENTEDLY minister unto him, his chldrenl
and his childrens children forever more.
