DOROTHY DIX ON MOTHER LOVE.
Dorothy Dix says: “Those of us who believe in suffrage for women believe that-che most valuable gift that women will bring to the service of their country, when ttitare permitted to serve it, is this passion of motherhood. We believe that we need mothers in politics, and that the whole human race is crying to be mothered. We believe that when women have a vote there will be no more child labour; that the life of a baby will be thought to be as valuable as that of a pig, and that millions will not be spent for the conservation of the lives of animals and nothing for those of children. “Blessed be mother love, the one love that never fails and never wearies; the love that clings the closer to us the more others turn away from us and the more we need it.-’ w
