DANGERS OF BIRTH CONTROL
PROFESSOR AND RACE-SUICIDE.
Dr. Loisa Meltroy, professor of ob stetrics and gynecology at the University' of London, delivered the inaugural address of the session to the York Mediosl Bociety recently Dealing with the quer tion of birth control, she complained that psycho-analysis had attracted communal charlatana, who used "methods of the muck-rake to sex," and frequently sug gested sex to patients in cases where there were no questions of sex at all. If they studied history they found that the downfall of Greece and Rome was due to the practice of race-suicide, and if that practice obtained headway here. it would mean the downfall of our Empire. Our greatness was built on home and home surroundings, and it was regrett- able that, with higher education, women were going more and more from the home, and the homes were beginning to die. We must (Dr. Mcllroy, urged) be alive to these dangers, and it was up to educated women to stem the tide of race-suicide.
(Cheers.) By employing birth-control methods, she asserted they would make venereal disease more pre- valent, increase prostitution, and torn women in, the home more or less into thei line of prostitution, making them slaves of the husband more than ever. The word "control" was used in birth control pro- paganda, but along with the measures for preventing conception there was no nd- Instead, they control;" vice as to pointed to the delights of married life, which could not be confined to the mar- ried, but must spread to ranks of frail! human nature outside. These control methods means self-deerption, brought controversy into the home, and would bring disharmony into marriage, and that often meant infidelity and the divorce court. (Cheers.) She had never yet met an obstetrician, or gynecologist, who ad vocated it, for they knew bow harmful were the results. Its supporters in the profession were among physicians and medical officers of health, who might fa vour it for economic reasons. The re medy was to teach the young community what life and marriage really meant, and they must insist that sex union was not a physiological necessity to the male the most degrading doctrine women ever accepted. If they got that out of their heade they would have done a great deal for the moral education of the race. (Cheers.)

Langely, not the Wrighta, who was the first to fly The trouble with you, Orville," said a banker, "is You don't that you are too taciturn. aesert yourself enough. You should preeangentize more." "My dear friend," Orville Wright answered, "the best talkor and the worst flyer among the birda is the parrot."

SQUARE-TOED
GLASGOW.
Observant visitors to Glasgow cannot help moving the prevailing fashion for men of square toed boots and shoes of an extreme pattern. The style is so pro- nounced that manufacturers are actually making special designs for the Glasgow market. Travellers from the North with a Scottish accent and quare toes" may now be safely reckoned as Glaswegians without recourse to the older test, as to whether they carry a cockscrew or not. The dictionary defines "square toes" as a precise old-fashioned person. It would be interesting to know if the new M.P. from Glasgow follow the fashion and ac copt the definition as applying to them selves. It is a curious fact that sculptors almost always represent persons se weari ́ing square-tood shoes
