THE MISSING RING
Sir-As one of the modern generation, may I protest at the slur cast by your Christchurch correspondent on our moral code. Our code is at least as clean as the Victorian code to which your ‘correspondent perbaps adheres. A baby almost invariably is washed before being put to bed each night, and a mother’s wedding ring is very often reraeved for the safety of both the child and the ring. The absence of the ring in this case seems to be proof of a care-
ful mother.-
A MODERN MOTHER
(Hamilton).
