THE SOCIAL HYGIENE BILL.
TO THE EDITOB. Sir,—Would you kindly correct the mistakes made in my letter on the Social Hygiene Bill. _ In the paragraph re the age of consent, it should read that the Government protects a woman’s property until she is 21 years of age, but refuses to protect her honour over the ago of 16 years. Also the paragraph dealing with the notifying of wives of their husbands’ condition of health should road “That the W.C.T.U. have insisted that innocent wives should be notified, etc.” Thanking you in anticipation. —I am. etc,. P- CRABB.
