"To date, and the month is not over, we have had thirtyâ€"four babies born, which is the largest number recorded in any month since I became superintendâ€" ent of the local hospital in 1931," said Miss Marjorie Ibsen.

"Let us suppose, for example, that it is sometimes good for mind and body to take a walk. Before there were means of mechanical transport, men walked because they could not do anything else; they committed naturally good acts. Toâ€" day, a man has to choose whether to use his car or walk. It is possible for him, by using the car on an ocâ€" casion when he ought to walk, comâ€" mit a morally wrong act, and it is quite probable that he will. It is despair at finding a solution to this problem which is responsible for much of the success of Fascist blood and soil ideology." This is the opinâ€" ion of the angry English poet, W. H. Auden, who dips his pen in carâ€" bolic acid in an attempt to save his generation from the melancholia and exasperation that drove the senâ€" sitive Coleridgeand Ruskin insane over the sadistic imbecilities of everyâ€"day society.
