That is the point of view of the matron of 1933, and there is a lot of sense in what she enys. Those of us who are middle-aged, ap- proaching the half century at a gallop, or sitting suave and satis fied on the further side of Afty, can tell the world of 1030 something

Somo women are afraid of motherhood, except limited mother hood-a very large percentage of modern women, I think. They are afraid of not being able to give their children a fair citance in life. because of the economic chaos in Some of these this generation. parents-husbands shirk parenthood more than their wives-have had a good education and do not like to think that their children may sink in the social scale. This motive may be called restriction of family from fear of society.
