How to Dress Your 'Bener Baby" In Summer
;S"s SS
ey Or. MARGARET vAUPEL CLARK

Although OF late years the mothers
vanity In the matter OF baby clothes
has given place TO the comfort OF the
child In a great measure, yet We still
find mothers who do not dress their
children properly. Either through ig-
norance or pride they still put too few
or too many clothes upon them
Remember a baby's flesh is as easily
hurt AS a rose leaf and, while EN-
broidery and laces may look beautiful.
10 YOU, they do not feel at all good
10 baby when they chafe his little
neck and arms with their starchy
freshness.
Use the softest fabrics you can af-
ford when you make your baby
clothes
In summer don't dress your child
with lots OF clothes. A diaper. sort
flannel or outing flannel skirt and a
slip is enough 10 keep your baby COM
Portable.
Make the skirt to slip over his
shoulders, leaving him free from any
tight bands. Don't have his diaper
too big. as that will make him bow
legged
Never dry a diaper that has been
soiled and allow II TO be used again.
Diapers should be washed carefully
and allowed. IL possible, 10 dry in
the sun Be sure they are perfectly
dry each time they are used.
Never allow your baby TO wear any
garment at night 1t has worn during
the day When II sleeps, II possible,
let II be outdoors or al least in
Ioom with the windows open.
Don't allow fly any nearer your
baby than you would a rattlesnake.
II your house is not screened keep
baby under a piece OF netting all the
time.
Don't put clothing on your baby that
Is not perfectly clean. Although we
have been told that cleanliness is next
TO goodness, e sometimes seems to
me that some Aothers think IT is next
to impossible
Put all your efforts on the cleanli-
Eess and hygienic care OF your baby
and never mind the frills on its
clothes.
Some time when you are not busy

GOODRICH TIRE ADS.

ventiOn Of Advertising
Clubs in Baltimore

The series OF striking advertise
ments Of Goodrich Tires which mas
been appearing In The Times Is 70
form a conspicuous feature OF spe-
cha display at the annual convention
OF the Associated Advertising CUBS
OF America, which is held in Baltimore
from June 9Th to 10Th.
Three national advertisers have
been selected as qualified 10 make
complete exhibits OF their advertising
campaigns. and the B. +. Goodrich
company Is one OF the three. That
such selection should have been
made Is high compliment not only 10
the advertiser but to the advertising
ieself The newspaper advertising
which has been pronounced by ex'
perts the most distinctive and erec-
tive that has been published In recent
years. was prepared by the Mahin Ad-
vertising company. OF Chicago. under
ton OF Mr.. f. G. Tibbitts, Advertising
manager OF The b. +. Goodrich com
pany.
"Of course, We feel rather proud
that our advertising should be select
ed as an example" Mr. Tibbitts said
but we are more interested In the
thought that advertising campaigns
are coming TO be considered in the
light OF their constructive influence
upon the public. Our display at Balti-
more will be surprisingly large to the
ordinary person who may see but one
or two different phases OF our cam
raign. We will show the newspaper
campaign. the magazine campaign, the
billboard and other outdoor work. the
Goodrich guide posts or road markers
which now cover over 10000 miles OF
American highways, and other forms
or publicity. In addition TO these, we
Will display that part OF our advertis-
ing which carries out the Goodrich
service idea-that is, the part which
amplifies our principle that all adver-
Using should be a part OF the manufac-
turer's service TO his customers. we
will make complete showing Of our
route books. booklets which give In.
structions for the proper care and use
OF tires OF all kinds, and all our other
supplementary literature which Is the
result OF years of experience and
which has only been possible through
much research and expenditure We
try 10 show our idea OF business d.
rectly connects service with sales. We
find that this is a principle which
DEMENT'S us, our dealers and our pat
rons."
The Goodrich display will have a

CARRICk.

The second week Of the Lyman H.
Howe pictures In the Garrick theater
attracted large audience, Sunday
evening, and the variety OF the pro-
gram thoroughly entertained and
amused the houseful Of spectators.
The Howe pictures are accompanied
by unique and realistic effects.
A trip through the quaint little land
OF windmills and dykes. and an init
mate view Of the rural and urban life
Of the Dutch, proved one OF the most
popular travelogues the Howe pictures
have yet presented The comedy and
the tragedy OF the recent floods In
Ohio and West Virginia were shown
with a startling fidelity. The building
OF huge skyscraper in New York
was an intensely interesting Aim. and
the blowing up OF a mountain with
dynamite was as thrilling and sensa-
tional as any similar picture shown
on the Howe screen.
The Howe pictures are shown In the
Garrick every afternoon and evening,
except Sunday afternoon.
