iieye that instinct tells them just how

In connection with the work of the
Dlet Kitchen, when a mother places
ton for Instruction on how to raise
IT the baby is first weighed and ex-
amined by a physician. a record is
made of the findings of the physician.
ana the mother is then instructed how
to prepare the milk. clothe the child
and how to place 1t in it's crib. For
ttis purpose there is small crib at
each of the stations. and Il demonstra-
tion is given the mother. The babies.
for the first ten months, are fed on
modified milk. and the mother is taught
how to prepare it, She purchases the
milk from the association. if she is
-able to pay for it, If she cannot af-
ford to buy the milk, an investigation
ties. and if it is found the mother is
in need, the milk is furnished free.
Examined Once a Week.
=; After the baby has been started on
the diet it is taken once a week by the

amined by the physician, who notes
any progress or failing in the child.
He accordingly prescribes for the baby.
When babies are two years old they
are given full quality of milk.
In many instances the stations of the
association have become meeting
places for the mothers and they have
spent many enjoyable hours while
there. At several of the stations there
is. music for their entertainment. I'VE

welcome at the stations and we are
glad to have them call. whenever they
desire. If they would only come and
said one of the officers. "Some of them
run in and want to know if they ought
to dress their baby in such manner.
If 1t is correct we tell them so. but in
many cases We find that such clothing
as the mother wants to use on the
baby is not the proper kind. Others
come to us for advice along other lines
about their babies and we are always
glad to give the information"
Owing to the inclement weather last
Monday no babies were entered at the
several stations, but thirteen were re-
corded Wednesday at Children's Hos

PATRIOTlSM-PATHOS-DOUBT
Conflicting Emotions in Germany
Shown by Letter to Local Man.


Germany is torn by conflicting emo
war, according to a letter received by
Herman Mueller, bookkeeper for the
Plankington Packing company i'm Cal
umet, from his mother, who resides in
Hamburg, Germany.
Intense patriotism. which every man
woman and child shows for the gov
ernment, even TO the making of sacri-
fees great and small is the predom-
mating feeling, and mingled with this
is sorrow and pathos for those whose
loved ones have been lost in battle.
Aside from these emotions is a feel
ing of doubt about the probable out
come.
ON this latter subject, the writer,
Mrs. Mueller, says:
Even at the start, if the Germans
are victorious, everyone here has n
question on his lips as To just what
the outcome will be. Everyone has
faith in his country. but the fact re-
mains, the odds are very great and
we must use our every effort if we are
To win in the end"
The letter just received by Mr..
Mueller was mailed on Aug. %, reach
ing Calumet Sept 23. Reference to
many subjects which have to do with
the war is Intentionally omitted be-
cause of the writer's knowledge the
letter must pass through strict CEN
sorship.

Find Themselves Many Miles From Inhabited Country and Deprived of Leave, Which Engenders Growing Discomfort.
|. OTTAWA. Nov. 2.-Canada's next contingent of soldiers will be 15,000 in compliance with the Brit
 ish war office request, completing the second Canadian army division.

SALISBURY, England, Nov. 2.- Members of the Canadian contingent are anything but happy in their camps on the lonely plains of Salisbury. They find distances to the inhabited part of the country to be great and the par simony of their commanders in grant ing leave has added to their discontent
 English born members of the contin- gent are especially anxious to visit rel atives and friends, but few of them have been granted leave
 The men also missed the glorious re- ception promised them on their arrival here. on disembarking they were hur- ried by night to the Salisbury plains, arriving there just after dawn after the Wearisome march of eight miles across the monotonous downs
 After the camp was pitched the sol diers used their few hours of leave in a general exodus to the nearest village where their celebrations became so boisterous that their new-found liberty was soon cut short by the provost guard, which cleared all the village of every man in uniform, not even the of i ficers being exempt
 The feeding of the Canadian army i has also proved a prolific source of complaint which began before the transports were out of sight of land. The soldiers assert the stewards were allowed to hoard all the dainties on board and sell them at exorbitant rates. The same complaint is being made against the mess contractors at the Salisbury plain camps
 No huts have yet been prepared for the Canadians and the small conical tents in which from six to eight men are crowded, are not proving weather proof. The men resent the idea of spending the winter on the plains and are clamoring to be taken to the front as soon as possible.
