"Nations may have oppor- tune reasons for encouraging births at all costs and hazards. We are not yet, thank God, in An opportune position,"
The Countess of Limerick said that birth-control clinics should be an integral part of "any she population policy,”
"It is a curious reflection on our modern" cavitation," she added "that the State takes more care of and spends more money on the unfit than the fit."

The Duke and Duchess nt Windsor, anxious to bring the English spirit of Christmas to their chateau in the South of France, has invited a typical Lon- don family over for the holiday.
For some time they have been planning their special. Christmas party. A fist the Duchess wanted to invite a children's party of six or eight from a London Orphanage. She wanted to welcome kiddies who needed sunshine and rest.
