Continuing, in part, she said: HH "We must guard our young from HS being caught In the veritable whirl- Hfi pool of iniquity that whirls in so HB many city streets and especially in Bn segregated districts where even the HH young children are corrupted. The HK parents should shield the huddling H5 soul of the daughter committed to their care. The bloom of maidenhood is being brushed off by so much pawing over each other and lally- Kg gagiring. We must teach our youth to avoid such physical contact. Too Rfc many do not realize the danger till Br' tbey have been burned."
