The moulding of public opinion to the view that something must be done to prevent undesirable parents from bringing children into this world was mentioned by the Rev. John Lamb of Hyndland Church, Glasgow, when he spoke in Glasgow at the annual meeting of the Royal Scottish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty.to Chil- dren.

́ARCHDEACON'S PLAN
Those who treat marriage "as a social function" rather than a re- Uglous service were criticised re- cently by the Archdeacon of War- cester: the Ven. J. H. F. Pelle, when he delivered his charge to the clergy and laity of the Arch- deaconry.

He suggested a compulsory State civil marriage with a "separate Church Christian ceremony for those who seriously desire it"
"I hope I shall not incur the penalties which attach to contempt of court," said the Archdeacon. "when I venture to say that Mr. Justice Swift appears to have adopted the popular error that the

possible, to those engaged profes- sionally in playing the uncdifying game, according to the rules."

It was that the State should require in a civil marriage cere- every case mony conducted by a State off- clal, and that on the completion of the civil contract "the Church should offer Christian marriage to those who seriously desired it and were prepared to abide by the ob- ligations which it imposed.

The great difficulty was the at- titude of so many people in the Church to marriage. They seem--" ed to regard it as casually...and materially as any worlding could, and to treat it more as a social
