Letters To The
Editor.
Holyrood, °' Ontario;
March. 17th, "1947
Dear Editor and Subscribers:
I am „writing to say I heartily
agree ,with. M. Paterson about
•
the. { wanton pictures of girls` in
the :newspapers) • . .
Something h e overlooked,.
,though, is some a of ' the comic
strips , which are; .equally
licentious.; Although a Christian
can Try a d"Wertlook these- .pic-
tures, I am beginning to realize
that practically `'every child in_.
the ,nation. that has ever ,seen a
newspaper. is poring: oyer every
comic, Off'; so Cate every day..

Some are; quite f ne,tithe s
. . �'
• What kind of :.a. nationis this
-going til be? What children :read
and see' will' be .their standard of

in detail` arid pictures, he 1

runt yconiic strips for his child-
