Six other sUites and the National Eu genics society have adopted the idea, and the numlicr of certified men and women seems destined to giw rapidly. .! Why not? There has liocn too much talk alout "blue jlood" and not enough nlwut red blood.' too much emphasis in family tradition and not enough on present soundness jtnd vigor and the means of promoting them, j This is a practical kind of eugenics, settinj; up a new jind worthy source of family pride to add to' traditional' falucs, and promoting a wholesome interest in good physi cal heredity.
