The birth of a baby girl, to Mrs. Mary J. Barton of Kelly- ville, N. H., recently made her the mother of 20 children at the age of 45. You don’t often hear of such big families in our genera- tion.

Big families are getting fewer as the years sl b The mother of 20 children is almost as much of a curiosity in 1923 as the Ormsby quadruplets were in 1901. There'd be plenty of 20-children families, however, if the economic pinch were not quite so tight, though Lemuel R. Barton, farmer-father of the big New England family, says he finds it as easy to take care of 20 as of 5. Proudly he points out that if every family had 20 children eur communities would have a great increase in population. They certainly would. There are about 20 million families in America, and if each had 20 children our population would} be around 440 millions—four times as big as it is now. ever, we'll have that population, and more, in time.
