The Unborna
With Gertrude Bondhill
The thinking men and women of Laurens will welcome the oppor
tunity of seeing a picture that is an education in itself, a graphic
answer to one of the most vital questions that is agitating the
public mind today.
There is a reason why the news columns are carrying dispatches al
most every week relative to birth control. This question is looming up
as one that has got to be settled by the American people at an early
date.
Shall there be regulation of births of America? Shall the physi
cians of Iowa and other States that are indorsing the birth control
movement open wide the doors of wholesale race suicide?
"THE UNBORN" comes to assist you in making your own personal
decision in the matter. It shows you in the most emphatic fashion
what you and your neighbors can expect from the regulation of births.
It portrays the unhappiness and disaster which ;follow close on the
heels of any attempt to avoid child-bearing for any reason.
Do not miss this picture! It is a revelation! It is sensational only
in theme, not in treatment. Bring your wives and your children
over 17 to see it. They will be taught a lesson that will go with
them in the years to come.

Appeal Is to the Serious Minded
