“Prostitution requires for its diminution not only laws, well enforced, to abolish the traffic in womanhood; not only better social protection against harpies who seduce young girls seeking an honest livelihood; not only better chaperonage of young girls in exposed occupations; not only better opportunities for natural enjoyment of youthful pleasure under morally safe conditions; not only these - but most of all, greater power on the part of the average young girl to earn her own support under right conditions and for a living wage.” WellsLawYoungGirlOpportunitySocialNaturalPleasurePowerSupportGreaterConditionsHonestSafeAverageSeekingProtectionEnjoymentOccupationExposedTrafficWomanhoodProstitutionAbolishLivelihoodSeducingLiving WageGreater PowerHarpies Author:Anna Garlin Spencer

The only way man may become as God now is, is through fulfilling the laws of celestial marriage and the laws of the gospel, as I have just read to you the word of the Lord from the D&C.
