Fresher Abuses Jill's Morals

Sir,—Who exactly did Miss Shand think she was exhorting in her advisory letter . . . the she-pups at the Kennel Club to become true lady dogs?

Miss Shand seems to be a very zoological female in the way she flaunts and advertises her animal organs . . . but even animals restrict themselves to the spring time.

Miss Shand obviously thinks that she is the maxim of modernity in this, because She has cast away her "middle class morality." The only difference between the two is that young Victorian ladies at least had the sense to keep their mouths shut about their sexual prowess. As for being modern, Miss Shand's ideas were here before the ark . . . she possesses only an ingenuous form of execution.

We congratulate Miss Shand on her advertising technique and wish her every success. As she hopes to carry her sex freedom into later life (as the notable result of her higher education) we can only hope that she is equally successful as patroness of an orphanage . . . or does Miss Shand know All the facts about birth control, too.

I am not abusing Miss Shand, but she, feeling we freshers lack her most "sophisticated" experience has taken the liberty to abuse our intellect. It is not true that a young woman can be only one of two things (as our advisors in Salient seem to think), a prude or a slut. Extremism is a characteristic of the uncivilised, and these are the two extremes. Any normal young woman, whose thoughts are not perverted by an obsession can only develop into a well balanced human being.
