STORY & CLARK PIANOCO. 61 North Forsyth Street, Atlanta I SCIENTISTS URGE LARGER FAMILIES PARIS, June 28 —Primogeniture con-. fers no natural advantages, according to Professor Metschintkoff. On the con. trary, all the eldest sons and daughters must consider themselves as lucky If they are just normal. The professor was asked to account for the alleged increase of criminality In France. His answer was one word, "depopulation.” He afterward explained himself thus: The smaller families are the more chance there is of the children turning out idiots or criminals, which is much the same thing. There is a much high er proportion of degeneration and im becility among first-born children than among others. The limitation of fami lies. therefore, makes for the increase of abnormal individuals. The best stock is produced only at the fourth or fifth birth. ROAD HEADED FOR ATLANTA. WAYCROSS. GA..
