Impossible to imagine what really Is

In the six expressions Of the Com
missions 'oplnion" there Is hardly a
single statement that is not wonderful
TO behold.
1. In view of the brutal and vul-
gar language used by the court to the
girl II Is difficult to believe that the
Judge was actuated by n sincere de-
sire TO help the girl"
9. Is II kind and considerate" TO
attempt TO compel a girl By physical
force to undergo an examination for
which there IL no warrant In law
3. The statement that the examina-
lion was first suggested by Emily
Knox, has been proved To be untrue
by the girls own declaration and the
fact that she screamed and fought
against II with all the strength she
possessed
4. The examination was conducted
with the consent of mother and daugh-
ter, but was not conducted In the
manner ordered by Brown.
3. Children may have been ex-
cluded from the room. but " persons
not connected With the court were
asked 10 retire, what about the notori-

Emily Knox a question that would
