And met duty with resolute mind and

THAT TAGS AN INNOCI
Dear Day Book: Please permit me
to tell your correspondent of Thurs
day, Rudolph Bismark Won Leibich,
that DR.. Dickinson not only heartily
agrees with him when he says that
1.-The social creed is heartless that Wis
its the sins of parents OF U~noffending
babes" but that she is strong in the
belief that the annulment of the
adoption papers. by Judge Owens in
the case of the baby of Vida Hagen
is another evidence of the heartless-
ness of that creed.
MI. Won Leibich asks in your Day
Book of Thursday, why do so many
mothers abandon their babes to o
called charitable institutional" Per-
NIT me to ask him why so many faith
ers abandon not only their offspring,
but the mothers, too?
Then he asks, rs our opinion of
mothers love so low that we car be-
Heve thousands of them incapable of
loving their own offspring" l should
answer emphaticaIly-NO! Mother
love nests MIN months and nurses
nine months, while father love is mo-
mentary only and then he goes scott
free" Father love is cOwardly and
contemplate enough to make it i'm
possible for mother love to nest and
nurse his offspring in these thou
sands of cases he wilfully deserts.
Which parent then is the more
heartless? Who put the social
creed" upon the law books? Certain
ly not woman, because she cannot
vote and be a member of the law
making bodies called legislatures.
Man values property more than his
child, OF why has he tagged the word
bastard" to his child in the law
books?

critical, in calling itself Christian and

Who only has the opportunity to

Motherhood cannot be a sin" But, .
what of it, I would ask him. The
same can be said of ~Fatherhood, but
what of it? Mr.. Leibich's answer is
then is it not time we ceased using
such words as Legitimate, nameless
