HAND THAT ROCKS CRADLE
Science Frowns ON the Rockers and
Pushes the Hand
Away.

II Is a well known fact that the hand
that used to rock the cradle isn't doing it
very much. We are making no reference
to the problem of race suicide, says tho
Philadelphia Record, but to the fact that
among all the Congratulated things to
which modern science is hostile the cradle
occupies conspicuous place. There are
still babies-that is. there are occasionally
sim babies-but rocking is no part of their
regimen where thoroughly up-to-date
methods of rearing infants prevail
The socolologists are divided on the
question whether this lack Of rocking is
cause or an effect. There are those
who hold that because the hand that
rocked the cradle has been thrown out OF
employment by progress, just as stage
drivers and hand spinners have been, it
is seeking the ballot in order to escape
complete idleness. There are Others how
ever who believe that the remoS al OF
rockers from cradles is not the ce2se OF
the political activity of women bat is the
result of profounder unders landing OF
the effect of perpetual motion upon the
interior arrangements of the infant.
However this may be, the issue between
the scientific and the traditional method
Of soothing infants is squarely Joined i'll
Chicago, where an 6fficial of the health
department says savagely: 'Self-rocking
cradles are the devils own DEVICE To
which an overworked mother retOrts:
They're a grand invention. l can't cook
dinner and rock baby at the same time.
used to have to just let the baby bawl
away. Now the clock-work cradle stops
its crying"
It would seem to be obvious that If the
babies are TO be rocked the self-rocking
cradle is entitled TO the respect given to
all labor-saving devices. but that is not
the opinion of Health Commissioner
Young, who declares that he rocks his
babies himself and allows no one else to
have anything to do with the rocking of
them, White the assistant health commits
sioner says no kind of cradle is good for
child a cot is far better.
The cot is undoubtedly driving out the
cradle in the cast. and its influence will
soon be felt universally through the west.
But SO long as the rocking continues We
believe the weight of scientific opinion
is that clockwork can do 1t just as well
as mothers foot.

military authorities by being given a
thorough understanding OF the work OF
the regular army in time of war and
peace. They enter into the spirit of the
camp with enthusiasm and company
commanders return home with a much
more efficient corps OF militiamen than
when they came TO camp
In order TO make the efficiency Of the
national guard as complete as possible
the commanding officers plan long
hikes" 60 harden the muscles Of the
young soldiers to the rigors of camp
routine. Sometimes there is a low note
OF protest I'm the ranks on account Of the
length OF the marches, but these protests
never reach the ears OF the thirty-flve
or forty officers who accompany them
on spirited horses. bought temporarily by
the state.
Il is the between the 'non-coms' and
the privates that the line OF discipline
often wavers for being usually late, of
the ranks and often familiar with the
men these unsabered officers experience
the real difficulty in securing prompt
execution Of orders.
However, the officers OF Camp Mickey.
who wear the chevrons of the non
CONS, report no inclination on the part
Of the 1000 young men present TO fight
against discipline. The desire to be
"woll drilled" IN the eyes of the general
OF the camp actuates all companies and
each member Of every company Is quick
TO take up the precedent set by their
officers and lend assistance in enforc-
ing rules and obtaining order. Perhaps
the fear of being called a rookie" also
prompts many who might otherwise be
insubordlnate to conform to the general
demand for decency and strict obsory-
ance OF military regulations.
Camp Has Good Tone.
Concerning the general moral, tone Of
camp John II. Mickey, Bishop George
A. Beecher has made a special investiga-
ton and declares the ordinary looseness
Of such camps is absent. He has made
it his one idea to see that this tone
was absent ana has succeeded in a
great measure, although he admits that
there are those who will act in a dis
graceful" manner IN spite OF the strict
est military discipline and the most
favorable environments
To uphold the citizens Of the state who
believe that tho National guard is a wor-
thy organization and TO dispel II possible
the belief that has In tho past obtained
strong foothold that only the tougher ele-
ment OF the country enlisted In the guard,
Bishop Beecher has gone about among
these cncampments for the last seven
years and has found them consisting OF
clean, earnest and enthusiastic young
men, who are not prone to rowdylsm, but
are patriotic and eager to acquire a
knowledge Of things militory.
Camp Most Successful.
Those who have seen many camps of
national Busrdsmen are willing to con-
cede that Camp John II. Mickey is not
only one of the most interesting. but is
also one of the most successful and has
been OF greater benefit to young Ne
braska than any other effort that has
borne fruit in. recent years. Much OF
this. is due to Bishop Beecher, who has
placed a magic lantern" 10 the camp

use OF firearms, in the ethics Of military
manners and the science OF war.
Two regiments OF the Nebraska militia
the signal corps. the engineering corps
and the field hospital corps comprise the
various wards of this city OF tents.
To police this city requires more skill
than to administer the government Of the
ordinary town of 2,O0O inhabitants, for
at Camp Mickey the Euardsmen are
brought in close contact and with no re-
strain but that imposed upon them by the
commanding officers.
And yet Camp Mickey Is one OF the
cleanest. most orderly and pleasant
places in the state To bring II to this
STANDARD has required the personal skill
and interest OF the company and regl-
mental officers and the personal super
vision of Brgadier General John A.
Storoh
The guardsmen are called at $40 in the
morning. and II they have not responded

al 6:l5. The call TO quarters formerly
sounded at 10 o'clock. is blown at II
o'clock at Camp Mickey. and fifteen min
utes later the clear notes OF the tattoo
ring out over the camp and at 1880 the
mourpful taps announce that all lights
must be doused and that any guardBman
thereafter caught out of his tent without
agood cause and an acceptable excuse Is
liable to extra duty on the next day.
The miltiamen at Camp Mickey have
been unusually enterprising this year
and none OF them sleep on the ground
with nothing but blanket between them
