 The father. she continued, should teach the children that they can- not be law unto something su- perior to their own desires and that this is a law of abiding uni- verse.
 The husbands relationships to- wards his wife will have much to do with shaping sons attitude toward women and a daughters idea of what women may expect from men. It will be the key to their happiness is married life. Miss Lewis declared.
