This is a good time Of year to play

in case you have not got the money to
buy them ready made. Even II you

make things once and a while, just
to know how.
First OF all. get a straight stick or
pole about seven or eight feet long
and stick II firmly in the ground. At
the top end tie a stout string about
the same length as the pole or a little
shorter, and to the other end Of the
string tie an old cotton glove, II You
have one; II not. any glove will
answer Inside OF this put a tennis
ball or one of rubber. II you have not
got the tennis rackets that are gener.
ally used in this game, make paddles
like ping pong bats only little larger,
out Of thin, smooth board. such as is
to be found in soap boxes.
A good place for the pole is in the
back yard, even though the yard be
quite small, for the game does not
require much space. To play It two
persons stand on opposite sides OF
the pole, facing each other with a
bat; the game is to wind the string
around the pole by batting the ball,
one person sending it in one direction
and the other in the other. Whoever
succeeds in winding it all the way
round in his own direction wins the
game.

for the Americas cup next year. A
challenge may be expected by the

BABIES
AND CHILDREN
Be Kind
BE Kind Be King
BE Kind

How to abandon foolish theories and
continue growing is the question.
Common advice is about as useful
as uncraclzed cocoanuts are digestible.
One mother confesses that the
theories which were successful with
her first three children were entirely
annihilated by the fourth.
A million babies daily cry for a
drink Of cool boiled water.
Smile on the baby just out OF nap
and show happy face when picking
it up.
Good rules may have so many excep-
tions that they become dangerous in
common use.
One mother asked another, who had
a one-year-old baby what she had
been doing the last year Her reply
was that she had been giving her
theories a respectful burial
The baby should receive discrimi-
mating attention. Foolish and unnec-
essary worry that endangers the
health Of the parent. and dangerous
eareIessness which harms the baby
are the extremes TO keep away from
A father OF a large family reported
that they used to enjoy children at
their house At one time they had a
two-year-old. a pair Of one-year-old
twins and pair of one-month-old
twins. The neighbors had 10 help a
little occasionally on sewing, but the
children grew up to marry wen snd
win independence. They were bright
and smart-they had to be to get out
OF the way of each other.
Recently one case has been placed
on record where a baby was smoth-
cred in bed While sleeping between its
parents.
At an afternoon reception, while
several ladies were exchanging baby
wisdom. these reports were given: Il
have just heard from our friends with
the new daughter their first child.
They are so afraid that something
will be wrong with the baby that If
she sleeps they think she is dying.
and they sit up and watch her, and if
she awakes and cries they are sure
she IS dangerously sick. They have
a hard time dressing her. The father
was sure the nurse put the little vest
on over its feet, but the mother sue
ceeded in getting it on over its head. ="
A baby is an appetite framed by
nature.
Almost all articles on babies take 1t
for granted that the children are to be
brought up on bottles, and yet there
are FIVE babies in one neighborhood
taking natures solution. It may be
that babies like these FIVE do not need
any editorial assistance.
Charles wife writes US this: The
Lord doesn't send any babies to this
home. / guess he thinks | don't know
much about taking care Of them. But
l do love the little folk"
Can you tell by baby's cry whether
ii is a pin. pain or spunk?
Baby's first attempts TO use its
hands are as humorous as a young
mans first attempt to use his heart
What about adopting children7
When should the childless prefer re-
sponsibility and doing to only giving
charity money? Are there principles
10 go by?
Be just as careful OF the boys as
you are OF the girls. 1t may be only
carelessness which makes It harder to
raise baby boy than it is to raise a
baby girl.
Why is 1t easier to tell your friends
all about your baby than to listen to
their reports Of theirs?
