BY Mrs. Walter Ferguson

The National Conference of Labor
Women in England has announced
officially that motherhood is the
last relic Of slavery because mothers
receive no wages for their work"
And what cash remuneration, pray,
could justly compensate us for this,
our best and greatest labor? Or, on
the other hand, can we honestly say
that we are not paid in full for every
thing we do in maternal way?
Motherhood is its own reward 1t
wants no weekly wage, no yearly
stipend. 1t Is womans most mag
nificent achievement, her great and
gallant adventure. Because men
can know it not they must take to
other things to find thrills for their
souls.
Brings New Honor
A Charles Lindbergh started out
into the vast untraveled sky and
brings to America a new honor. A
woman filings fear to the four winds
and plunges into an ocean of pain,
emerging with a new life. Some
times, too, her venture leads to
death. 1t is a great gamble, with
mighty stakes, but no less wonder
full than the material CANDLES for
which men risk their lives so reck-
lessly.

geographer of the University of

Current History. The fact that
the worlds population has doubled

time there has been marked ad.
vance in the standards of living

To the objection that the white
