CENSORSHIP OF POSTERS.
Amidst all the discussion about Remarque'* book it seems to me, as a woman, that there is a worse evil under the sun. There is, at the present time, on hoardings in city and suburbs a disgusting picture of a practically naked woman's figure. It is passed daily by hundreds of boys and girls, many of them very young, on whom it cannot fail to make a very (to say the least) undesirable impression. One has only to go back to one's own childhood to realise the shock it must bring to a child's sensitive mind and the evil train of thought it sets in motion. Is it not time some of these posters were censored? DECENCY.
