With the first rainy days Of autumn
and threatened fogs, England is be-
coming more and more apprehensive
about ZeppeliDs. Many English mill

impracticable for German air craft to
attempt to drop bombs on London,
but preparations have been made in
the English capital AGAINST such at
tacks.

BABIES ARE COMING
BACK INTO STYLE
PAREkT-TEAcHER ASSOCIATION
TO PUT ON BABY CONTEST
IN THIS CITY.

For a good many years babies
have not been receiving the attention
they deserve. We have been reading
aDG4t pets like lap dogs, Angora cats
and IA ned monkeys. We have heard
that wo.t Of fashion, Who set the
pace for ot-o" women to follow, have

been talking much about making a
record in raising healthy babies.
Then suddenly peoples discovered
that ncglecting babies was a bad
thing for nation. Social workers
began to organize Mother clubs in
the congested districts of the cities
for the purpose Of interesting moth
ers in the proper care of their babies.
Then along came Mrs. John Hays

the Importance of making babies
fashionable It organized the Bet
ter Babies bureau, whose object was
to spread the Better Babies contest
idea all over the country. The pub

to preach this beautiful gospel was
through the state and county fair, At
which city and country mothers meet.
Last year there were Better Babies
contests at 300 state and county fairs.
one hundred thousand babies were
examined, and are better babies to-
day because their mothers learned
something of the better babies idea

pccted that 100000 babies viii be eX-

A PENETRATIVE STORY OF
EGYPTIAN SOCIAL LIFE

Stella. in Norma Lorimer's story OF
"a Wife Out OF Egypt" (Brentano's).
was thoughtlessly happy while she was
a pupil at Miss McNaughtan's school
in England. Her troubles began on her
return to her home IN Egypt, where
her fathers people, the Syrlans. were
not recognized socially by the English
masters OF the land. The story tells
a great deal about the mixed races
OF Egypt and about the varied and an
tagonistic and frequently turbulent life
there.
Stella was engaged TO Vernon Thorpe,
young English military officer. when
she finished at Miss. McNaughtan's
school In that happy time neither OF
the pair thought of racial differences
and differences of caste in Egypt. II
is at a later period OF the story that
we find Vernon saying to Stella: For
the sake OF the love / believed in once
race are capable Of speaking the truth"
This was just after the foiling OF the
plot to blow up the railroad train in
which the British Agent was travelling
TO Alexandria. Stela's cousin, Girgis
Boutros. was in the prot, but one of his
fellow conspirators had assassinated
him, believing him to be a traitor. The
story tells how the conspirators were
seized and how Girgis was shot. A
bit OF the description runs: "As Girgis
sank to the ground the man who had
