TIE RABY CONTEST

Doubtless the mother of every child
- the better babies contest at the
unity fair ths: does not win prize
IL be disappointed-but, If she has
stened 20 the advice of the physi.
clans who judged the little mite OF
humanity, she will have received
something that will be of greater ben
eft than medal or a few golden dol
lars.
The main object of better babies
contests is to enable the physicians
of the communities in which they are
held to advise parents of physical de-
fects in their children and show them
how they can be remedied. At a ten
der age minor defects are easily cor
rected, but if allowed to persist until
the child has grown older, they may
become a serious menace to his
health.
Correct treatment, correct feeding
and clothing and other measures fol
the good of the child are prescribed
by the examining physicians free oi
charge, and, if faithfully followed, will
result in future health and immediate
betterment for nearly every baby ex
amined-for there are few perfect in
fants, just as there are mighty few
. perfect adults

HELP SANTA'S WORK IN
EUROPE

Numerous organizations and indi.
viduals in Las Vegas are joining in
the movement to raise funds to send
toys and good cheer to the little tots
of Europe whose homes, at Christmas
time, otherwise would be desolate on
sccount of the war. The movement

ofsliberal + support OF course, the
women of the community, who usually
are the leaders in things Of this kind,
are at the head of the plan They are
busily at work perfecting a scheme
by which all persons in the city who
wish to cooperate may do so.
Here is little allegory of the
Christmas ship, written by Harry Du-

an organization of advertising men in
Chicago. Read 1t. It will help keep
you friends with yourself

COUNTY FAIR IS
INTERESTING
PEOPLE
DISPLAY OF FARM AND ORCHARD
PRODUCTS is ESPECIALLY
GOOD

Il was O'Clock last night before
the exhibits stopped coming into the
county fair. All day long they had
been arriving: cabbage that one man
cnrid scarcely struggle With, turnips
t at looked Lie great white sugar
bowls: corn that bent when being ta-
ken through the door, and other vege-
tables that would rank fifty-fifty with
the best.
The visitors found it hard to keep
their hands off the plates of apples,
they are so tempting. The grain is
as fine as any ever seen in New Mex
leo. All in all, the agricultural ex-
hibit this year is rather better than
in any former year, for scarcely in
the history of the district has there
been such a good year for crops.
The ladies have not been behind
the men in displaying their handi-
work. All around the balcony hang
bed spreads of the finest, woven lac
es, and crazy quilts, and rugs of the
most exquisite workmanship and tex
tnre; and on long tables down the
vest side of the armory are many ex-
hibits of embroidery-center pieces,
pillow tops, doilies and the like, the
siGes hand plin'eJ china and PLAQUES
and curiously mace baskets and or
naments
Today the tables are all filled with
displays. In the basement there are
poultry, rabbits and other small live
stock, In the lot adjoining the build
ing on the west are the horses.
This morning Douglas avenue look
ed like market day in the olden times,
with the herds of cattle coming in for
exhibit; the horses, finely groomed
and prancing; the riders and the gen
eral air OF activity and hustle. All
Judging took place this afternoon, too
late for The Optic to give the list of
winners today
Tomorrow night the fair will end
with a hard times farmer dance. The
floor will be prepared during the af-
ternoon, and the dancing will start at
8. 80. The idea is mat all the folks
who attend should wear old clothes
the men overalls and red bandanas
at their throats, and the ladies' such
worn-out gear as may come handy
or course this is not essential, the
costumes being planned only tc
heighten the good time A charge oi
five cents per dance will be made fol
every couple TIT dances.

For when the long vigil of Sorrow
and Dread came back to the hovel it
found new hope there and new cour-
age
The hovel had learned again that
Love lives eternal in the world.
And the world had learned again
as it has learned at Christmas many,
many times before that the bonds of
universal brotherhood cannot be sew
cred by saber or she'll
May God preserve the Spirit of
Christmas in Europe this coming
Yuletide,
But We are getting ahead of our
story.
There are, IN the United States,
many thousands of organizations ded-
icated to the principles of brother
hood. friendship and fraternity. The
organizations hold for their highest
ideal the aid of the strong for the
weak; the help of the able for the
needy
Such an organization is the Red
Roosters of America. Its members, in
business life, are advertising men.
But when they meet as Red Roosters,
no commercial labels or trade CLASH
fication exist among them. They are
lust friends and comrades, welded to-
gether by the kinship of mankind.
1t is the belief OF the Red Roosters
that if every similar good-fellowship
organization IN America fully knew
and considered the Christmas ship
project. every one of these organiza-
tions would rally its heartiest support
to this humanitarian movement.
The real sorrow and sadness of this
war fall upon the helpless who are
left behind. Fraternalism never had
better opportunity to show its sim
cerity and worth than is offered in
this chance to bring happiness and
hope into the blackest zones of an
guish and anxiety.
And there are other benefits-un-
dreamed of, colossal-that are possi-
BILE from a world wide Christmas ship
movement
For who says MIR. Christmas Spirit
has lost his merry eunningl
The good old wand that once trans
formed the crusty Scrooge into a
Prince of Benevolence may this year
soften the anger-steeled hearts of the
warning monarchs.
Come on, you good-fellow organiza-
tions, and let's load up the Christmas
ship with Christmas spirit enough to
illuminate every corner of the sorrow
darkened nations.

PHYSICIANS PLEASED
With BABY contest
THE YOUNGSTERS ARE ALL SAID
TO BE PASSING GOOD Ex-
AMINATlONS

The physicians conducting the ex-
anniations in the better babies" con-
tesst. which is arousing more enthu-
siesm than has been seen in Las We
gas in many years, passed on Il ba-
bies yesterday. The comment of all
the doctors was an expression of sur
Prise that all the little ones should
pass such a splendid examination. The
grades are all said to be high. Not
single baby has entered the lists
not well qualified to compete with the
best
Today the general enthusiasm and
activity are even more pronounced
than yesterday. Groups of mothers
have been seen about the armory COM
pairing notes, and on the streets many
a SMILING dad has shown the pride
he takes in the showing of his off
spring. The contest has real inner
ent merit that many have not realized.
Often babies have minor defects
which could be corrected if attention
were called to them, but which par
ents do not see, defects in vision or
hearing, or the beginning of adenoids
and other growths in the throat and
nostrils. These little things are all
susceptible of correction in the incep-
ton. and during the examination par
ents are having a chance to discover
them. Uei
If the mothers are happy over the
result, the physicians making the ex-
aminations are no less so. When their
hours are over and they emerge from
the examining room every one of
them is Smiling, and expresses him
self as having had the one real time
Of his professional life. The contest
probably will extend far into tomor
