If not now, when? SUCH WAS her thinking as she wrote before the birth of the tenth ch'ld: Can you imagine anybody in their right mind leaving nine children at home and traipsing off to Europe? We heartily recommend just such inexplicable behavior to all parents of large families who haven't really been alone for 17 years; It has a very wholesome effect on the children for Mother and Dad to discover that they still love each other madly and that each child is a special part of one's family.
