STRIKING LINES FROM HALL
GAINES NOVEL
SEE THESE SCENES IN THE
u PICTURE

Think what marriage means to a
woman--a young girl especially.
1t means the beginning of a new
known world on voyage from
which there can be no return.
Do you know that the man to
whom you are going to marry your
daughter is profligate and a rep
rebate. If you do know this you
are deliberately selling her, body and
soul, to crafty your rotten aspira-
tions.
Thus in my youth, my helpless
ness, my ignorance and my mex
perience I became engaged to the
man who had been found and
courted for me. Love had not
been spoken to me. sex was still
asleep in me. and my marriage was
arranged before my deeper nature
knew what was being done.
A married widow! The worst
condition in the world for a woman
especially IL she is young and at.
tractiye. and subject to temptations.
Something held me to the spot on
which stood. caught the sound
of rustling skirts and found myself
listening to voices in my husbands
bedroom. There were two voices,
one a mans loud and reckless, the
other a woman's soft and cautious.
No need to tell myself whose voices
they were!
When a woman has been forced
into loveless marriage, and 1t Is
crushing the very soul out of her,
and the iron law will not permit her
to escape from 1t, what crime does
she commit il she fees to man to
whom she is married in her heart?
Once in a hundred years there
comes great POSTGRADUATE and
Beatrice, Petrarch and Laura. The
woman meets the right man too
late. What a tragedy! What a
daily and hourly crucifxion! I'M
less she is prepared to renounce the
law, reject society. and live her
own life with the man of her heart.

Selling him by the throat, Martin
thrashed him as he would have
thrashed a vicious ape. Thrashed
him while he fumed and foamed,
and cursed and swore. Thrashed
him while he cried for help, and
then yelled with pain and whined
for mercy. Then he flung him to
the ground, bruised in every bone.

1t seemed to me that, while God
in his gracious mercy was giving me
my child to comfort and console
me, to make me a better woman
than / had been before, man, with
his false and cruel morality, was
trying to use it as whip to pun
ish me.
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1920-03-04

Then came the great miracle. Ny
child awoke and began to cry. It
was a faint cry, oh! so thin and
weak, but It went laundering and
laundering through me. A mighty
torrent of love swept over me. 1t
was motherhood.

Oh, you good women, who are
happy in the love that guards you,

portionate amount.
Survey Hospital Needs.
As q result of its careful survey
of the situation in regard to hos
pital and homes, the interchurcn
finds that the Protestant churches
are very far from having made
adequate provision for the sick. On
the basis of one hospital bed being
required for every 400 of popula-
ton, the interchurch figures show
that only 43 per cent of the Prot
estant church membership is pro-
vided for.
A similar situation is found in
regard to orphanages. The inter-
church survey estimates that one
destitute child for every five num-
bred church members needs this
type of institutional care. On this
basis the required Protestant ca
pacity would be 4s,72S. whereas the
actual capacity of Protestant
homes for children is only $4,000.
Set Aside Fund.
As first step towards adjusting
this adverse balance. the 80 demon
nations cooperating through the
interchurch have set aside the
SIS, 0O0, 900 budget above referred to
to be applied to institutions Of this
kind. A sum of about five times as
great, it is said, would be needed
within the next five years to bring
Protestant institutions up to tht
standard set by the Catholics.
