Care for the Bpbv

In the heart of the foreign distric:
in Philadelphia, Pa, where hundreds
If families are crowded together in
narrow courts and babies spent the
lot summer sleepless nights in suf-
locating little rooms. the Southwark
Neighborhood house at Front and
Ellsworth streets. opened a roof gar
den in July where some of those
mothers and children might find
nights of peace.
One morning last summer the head
worker of the settlement opened tile
door to a tired Italian woman with Il
liny, crying baby on her arm. The
woman sank down on the step, and
lifting her dull eyes, told in broken
English how she had walked the
streets at night trying to put Ter
iaby to sleep.
a bed and crib were found for
the woman and child. Soon after
equipment was obtained for the roof
garden and an invitation sent broad
asst to the mothers to come and
bring their babies to the settlement
during the summer nights. Many,
mothers, especially those who had
lick children, took advantage Of the
Cffer; and so well did the plan work
that the equipment was increased
end more cots provided to care To-"
the increasing number Of applicants.
Above the roofs of the surrounding
houses the open air dormitory was
right in the path of every breeze that
blew. however slight, and babies that
cried and tossed in the stuffy tene-
ments slept peacefully on the roof of
the settlement, while a trained nurse
lowered about their cots and watch
ed them through the night, In many
cases She mother, with the self-sacri
flee which seems to be the first in
stinct Of every mother in all walks
0i life, sent two of her children in
stead of going herself.
At I o'clock in the evening the bG-
bies began to arrive. Miss Bette
Chodowski, the nurse, dipped them
into a tub of warm water then whisk-
ed them into their cool little night
les. Before she tucked them under
a light cover in their cots, snc saw
that each tot had bottle of milk.

Terrors of Modern Life.

Two calamitieS are threatening

insanity. and the other is the de-

aged by one headline writer, the fu-
:urc presents spectacle in which
nobody will be born and everybody
will be out Of his mind. Fortunate

the brunt of the battle throughout
Carpenter is working out every aft

is no tame affair. Carpenter is a
man who hits to hurt but it has not
yet been demonstrated here how

Neither Fred Sax or Montana Kid

WILSON C0NSULTS
PARTY LEADERS

Washington, March 26.-President
Wilson hopes to do most of the fight
ing for tariff revision before congress
begins its work early in April. The
president is of the opinion that it is
better to do the talking and the fight
ing-if any is eCeSsary-before the
special session is far along rather
than allow differences of opinion to
crop out as the tariff bill progresses
through congress.
He expects to give the administra-
tons backing to a tariff bill that will
represent the views of himself and his
cabinet leaders of both the senate and
house and of the country at large as
well Within the next few weeks he
will consult with party leaders fire.
quently, and as soon as the schedules
Of the Payne-AldriCh bill have been
changed to conform to democratic
standards he will get together with
there leaders to determine upon the
plan that is TO receive his support.
The president wishes to see the forces
of the White House and those of
congress united in an effort to pass
the tariff legislation on which they
all are agreed.
Not only will the president consult
democratic leaders. but he will talk
over with disinterested business men
representing all sections of the coun-
try the proposed changes and their
probable effect on various industries.
The president does not intend to
hold any hearings on the tariff but
from time to time he will confer with
friends familiar with particular
schedules He already has held sew
eral such conferences and more will
follow before April 7. He is anxious
to get the ideas of the country upon
tariff revision, as upon other subjects
and will not hesitate to call in men
not in public life to obtain this infor-
nation.
The tariff is foremost in the presi-
dents mind, He has no present in
tention of attempting to confine the
activities of the special session to
tariff only but is inclined to the be-
lief that it is better not to make out
in advance amy administration pro-
gram of legislation which might be
disarranged by unexpected complica-
tions." IF the tariff sailing is
smooth currency reform and other
subjects regarded by the president as
less important may be taken up and
put through their first stages at least
before Adjournment is taken.
