RABBIT TERM

MOTHERS
Special to The Washington Times

TORONTO, Ontario, Nov. 1s.
Despite an overnight snowstorm
and freezing blasts from Lake
Ontario, leading Stork Derby
mothers today remained hotter
than anything ever seen on the
sands at Bali Bali.
Visits to their homes revealed
they were still blazing over the
statement Of I. F. Hellmuth, K. c.,
dean of Ontario barristers. who
characterized them as "a lot OF
rabbits"
She's No Rabbit
A reporter yesterday visited the
home of Mrs. Lily Kenny, who Of
fered to "sock" the 82-year-old
Hellmuth. He asked:
Pardon, Mrs. Kenny, but I
have a question. Are you or are
you not a rabbit"
Three blocks away helmeted
bobby deserted his traffic tending
and started on a dead run. A
startled truck driver narrowly
missed a taxi. Mrs. Kenny'S reply
could be heard all over the neigh
borhood. She shouted:
mo, 1 am not a rabbit. Neither
Is my husband a rabbit. He is a
decent hard-wOrking man. And
my children certainly are not
rabbits. They are fine children,
and it is like our lawyer said
yesterday, they are the kind Of
children even Hellmuth would
be proud to be the father Of"
LIKE PIONEERS
Mrs. Arthur Timleck, who also
was present when Hellmuth as
sailed the marathon, was equally
outraged but not so vehement.
She said:
''It is the most atrOciOuS state
ment / ever heard. How can
they allow him to say such
things? 1t was like our lawyer
said-the pioneer mothers had
large families and everybody
hOnOred them. Now because we
have lived as nature intended
and been blessed with many
children, we are called rabbits.
"A lot of people have said
nasty things about Mr.. MiIlar
because he left his money to
the woman having the most
children in the 10 years follow
ing his death but I think they
should be ashamed of them
selves. 1t is fine thing for a
young country like Canada for
people to have lots Of children"
