More Babies Like These
These nine little tots are all sound, healthy stock. The generations
behind them had unconsciously been practicing Eugenics through the
process of natural selection. By luck, as it were, no strain was bred
into the several families that would have caused these children to be
unsound mentally, morally, or physically.
It is through Eugenics that we shall have more babies like these, and
shall eliminate the possibility of children like those shown in the
other illustrations to this volume.]
