LET'S LISTEN TO sAsTs APPEAL

Why do we-every last one OF us
want to kiss the baby? And why do
we invariably do 1t unless the mother
has courage enough to protest?
Perhaps it's because all of us-even
the worst OF us-have a deep well OF
love in our hearts for that which the
baby embodies-purity-a our i'm
pulse is to express our worship by u
kiss. .
And we rock the baby until his lit
tie stomach rebels in nausea.
We dance him on our knees until
his little brain is added.
We pin him into tight bands and
then wonder why he cries.
We put q nasty "pacifier" into his
when he needs to cry and expand his
lungs. Then he has collie, and aden-
ODDS later.
We raise him on cows milk or baby
foods, and fret because he's not SO
strong as Biddys, fed as he was
meant to be fed, on mothers milk.
And why do We do all these
things? Just because we're crazy
about baby, OF course. But we really
want to do the best for baby, and we
are beginning to see things as they
ought to be seen.
Women all over the world are
waking I'D to their own motherly
selfishness and the baby's real needs,
and We are going to have healthier,
happier babies in the future.

Daniel Boone, Kentucky pioneer
was on his way to the stake to be
burned alive. But while his body
was, seemingly, at the mercy OF the
Indians, the spirit Of the old hunter
would not down.
With the eagle eye OF trapper
who knew every tree, bird, flower
and animal In the woods, Boone watch
ed for his opportunity. He bent and
strained the great muscles Of his
arms. and wrists. The thongs which
bound him snapped like twine.
Quick as a fash the sturdy hunter
overpowered the Indian guard. With
his head he butted another redskin
In the stomach and sent him spinning
in the dirt. Another Indian he kicked
and tripped. Before the startled tribe
could comprehend his lightning move
fnents, he dashed to the chiefs wig
wan and grabbed his own rife.
Loading the weapon as he ran, he
paused and confronted the enraged
Indians who had started In pursuit.
Quick as the doe Boone sprang be

OF the Indians whizzed about him. He
levels his rife with deadly aim.

One Indian falls.
On he runs. Again he pauses to
confront his pursuers.

Another Indian drops.
The Indians close In.
Again and again the rife shots rims
through the forest until eight dead In
dams point the trail back to the In
dian camp.
In the meantime, Boone's two
daughters, venturing outside the set
Element stockade, had been captured
by another party Of savages.
