LONDON, December 14.—Lady ‘Walburga Paget urges that a race of beautiful people, free from physical defects, be created through parents shaping their in- fants’ faces soon after birth.

There the great Spanish families call in an old ‘mammy’ when a child 1s born to shape its plastic head, features and limbs. “The many women who are sculptors or draw would at once know where to correct baby de- fects.
