We must all cease thinking about these things as similar in principle to the old things to which ou"r broken down laws refer. "New occasions teach new duties." We must cease to think of any of these classes of men as to blame We must come to think of all, from Louis Tikas to John D. Rockefeller, Jr., as more or less help less factors in a great web spun by all of us and by fate, all of whom are siuned against and sinning. If we are to save this country from impending anarchy and civil war, we must think.

Here is the other side: According to God, all motherhood is sacred. Ac cording to Nature, motherhood can not be a "sin." - Then, isn't it time we ceased using such words as "il legitimate," "nameless" and "bas tard"? Is any form of abuse more coward ly and contemptible than that which we heap upon the head of a defense less child which came into the world through no will of its own? Why do so many mothers abandon their babes to so-called charitable so cieties? Is our opinion of woman's nature - kso low that we can believe thousands of them incapable of loving their own offspring? No, my brothers, that is not the reason. It is because these poor, de fenseless sisters of ours shrink from the brutality and cruelty of a prudish civilization, which, hypocritically calling itself Christian, has forgotten the word of the Master whom it pre tends to serve, and who said that lit tle children were ALL "of the King dom 6f Heaven." He did not say "Suffer little legitimate children to come unto me."
