never do it with a bayonet; it has
been tried for thousands Of years be-

The profiteer uses the lead pencil

America last spring and fought Richie

showed the effects Of the change Of

better, but not up to his Australian

It is an evil in that it has
wrought a vital injury to the nation

maternal responsibility to the state
It underestimate home influences
and substituted legislative enact

For more than a century women
