THROUGH A WOMANS EYES
The DiUine Right?
by JEAN NEWTON

Twenty seven years ago mother left
her baby on another woman's doorstep.
The other woman brought him up to
manhood and he achieved success and
fame. Then suddenly his real mother
turned up to claim her son and his love.
And some people think it is unnatural
that the only love he had to give was
for his foster mother. the woman who
had really been his mother. Perhaps
It was unnatural that he responded
not at all TO the woman who bore him.
For in every human being there is sup
posed to come with life Il natural tic
for others Of his own flesh and blood.
certainly for his mother. But it seems
10 me that the tie is quite as much one
that is knitted through those early
years of the child's dependence. by the
lasting fiber of love and parents
devotion.
We read of a girl who refused in
court to return to her mother, prefer
ring to stay with an aunt; and all
about US there are examples to refute
the theory Of the divine right to mother
love
Mother love is n privilege that has
been earned by the generations OF
mothers who have given the word a
meaning transcending any other. 1t is

She probably has comfortable enough

But her evenings!
Sometimes she goes to the movies,
sometimes she Is with another girl or

beau will take her to the theatre or
come to see her.
At those times she forgets that she Is
away from home, and the little room
has q nice, welcoming comfort about 1t

But then there are bound to be some
days when she gets home to find that
the other girls have already gone to din

an invitation.
