"SHELTERED" GIRLS

BACHELOR JUDGE'S

VIEWS

In the King's Bench Division, Miss Constantin Wicksteed, of Nut- ford-place, Marble Arch, W., suod Major V. D. B. Cooper, of Blakeney, Gloucestershire, for £124. balance of fees due in respect of his daughter Ruth, who, when 18, did not return to the school conducted by plaintiff nour Paris.

Major Cooper pleaded that he was justified in withdrawing hin daughter, as Miss Wicksteed had not exercised proper nupervision over the girls, particularly when they went to Pariş.

Miss Wicksteed replied that the supervision was ample and ex- cellent. When the girls went into Paris they were, she said, always accompanied by a mistress, und if they were going to meet friends the mistress handed them over when they met.

Mr. Justice McCardle, in giving judgment for Miss Wicksteed for £92 14s, 2d. and costs, said he would assume that Miss Cooper had, as her father had stated, led a sheltered life. Before, going to Paris she was at an English public ach bol

"I doubt very much," said Mr. Justice McCardio, "whether ex- aggerated importance is not attach- ed at the present time to the desire to shelter girls who have renched the age of 16, 17, or 18.

Harm of Ignorance

"My own view is that to keep girls in ignorance does not help and may do harm. I think it is better for girls of that age to have a knowledge of the world and of social evils, and knowledge of sexual risks. To shelter a girl too' much is an ill preparation for the life she miny have to lead when she grows older and when she has to visit technical and art schools and other institutions of learning."

In the present case, he continued, the allegations came to this: There was a suggestion that one girl at the school collected the photographs of cinema stars of the male Mias Wicksteed at once stopped this proclivity. Another went out from time to time by herself, but Her parents had allowed it.

Бех.

Then it was said that a third girl had received a letter from a young Frenchman asking her to luncheon with him in Paris and that she went out on the day he indicated. That incident depended on hearsay. It was impossible to treat girls of their nge as though they were in- fants three years old.

Major Cooper, he added, did not mako the slightest imputation against the moral character of any girl at the school.

His Lordship was satisfied that reasonable care and supervision of the girls had been exercised, that Miss Wicksteed was a woman of the highest character and ability, and that Major Cooper was not entitled to remove his daughter without notice.

Mr. George S. Royds, chief of a prominent London advertising agency, speaking to the Sheffield Publicity Club, said that he had found newspaper advertising the most economical and effective. Mr. Royds has placed £10,000,000 worth of advertisements since the wor

"I have used advertising in all its forms," said Mr. Royds; "have advertised on tramway cars and omnibuses, on hoardings, in the sky, on the films," on the radio, and in newspapers and magazines. Without exception I have found the most economical and the most effective advertising medium to be the Press, particularly the daily and evening Press,"
