Urge Social Code Reform at Massachusetts Episcopal Convention
At the 1224th annual Massachusetts Protestant Episcopal diocese session, a committee urged parents to instruct children on personal purity and health, mothers to warn daughters about marrying immoral men, and parents to know their children's companions. Clergymen should enforce a single standard for men and women and push social code reform, noting rising living costs and later marriages contribute to immorality. The report cites the century shift in men's average first marriage age from 22 to 27 and praises couples who endure poverty to establish homes.
