Care Of
the Baby In
Summer
Out of Door Life.

Out of Door Life.
Prepared By the children's bureau. Unit
ed States department OF labor.1
Keep the baby out OF doors. It IS
almost as important to feed the lungs
on fresh air as It Is to feed the stom-
ach on fresh milk. Stale air is almost
as harmful as stale food, and there Is
far less excuse for 1t. Fresh air and
sunshine at all times OF the year are
essential to the baby's health and
growth, but mothers too often fail to
realize this fact Babies are frequent
" kept on a starvation allowance OF
these two things, sometimes from
unhappy necessity, when the home Is
In a crowded, unventilated apartment
In a large city. When this Is the case
the mother must do her best for the
baby by taking him as often as possible
to the parks, recreation piers, play
grounds and other public open places
provided for this purpose by the city.
Outings for mothers and babies to the
country or seashore are often given by
churches and other organizations dur
ing the hot summer months in large
cities. Many an infants life has been
saved by even a brief stay in the coun-
try, but where this Is not feasible even
brief changes Of air such as are Sc
cured In the parks are Of great benefit
to a baby, as well as to the mother.
In the smaller cities and towns and
in the country there can be little ex-
cuse for depriving a baby OF outdoor
life and a constant supply Of fresh air.
In fact, in suitable weather the baby
may practically live out Of doors. In
the hottest weather, when it is cooler
In doors than out, the baby should be
kept in until the heat Is over, but at
night and in the morning he may be
out for several hours. A screened porch
on the shady side Of the house, where
he may play and sleep, win afford the
baby many hours Of outdoor life. A
sick baby especially needs fresh air,
and when possible the crib should be
set up on the porch, provided the baby
can be protected from the hot sun and
from flies and mosquitoes.
Experience has shown that sick ba-
bles stand a much better chance OF
life and recover much more rapidly II

all matters where the baby is con-
cerned, and she will realize that II a
high wind Is blowing dust about or a

The young baby may be taken out

hour II the weather Is warm and pleas

stays out. Remember that the baby's
eyes are very sensitive and must al
ways be carefully shielded, not only
from the sun, but also from direct
light. Babies are often wheeled about
In their carriages staring directly up
into the sky. Try It yourself for a
few moments and you viii realize the
cruelty to the baby, who may not even
be able to relieve this strain on the
eyes by turning his head to one side.
When the baby Is sent out with
nurse she should be instructed on this
point and also how long she Is to keep
the baby out and be warned Of the
danger OF allowing strangers to play
with him or kiss him.

MIDSUMMER CLOTHES.
Autumn Presses Closely Upon the Heels
of Summer.

Autumn Presses Closely Upon the Heels
of Summer.
Midsummer Is usually the signal for
changes and notifications In the SUM-
mer fashions. Spring clothes begin TO
show wear, and to demand renewal,
and our tickle minds begin to look for
something different.
Does II not seem strange that Amer
lean men should not have adopted long
since a more suitable August attire
than blue serge and tan shoes? How
ever, II men persist In conservatism In
this respect, women make up for IL, for
no woman I'm the world INDUCES In
summer clothes to the same extent as
the American woman.
The women OF other nations from
reasons connected with climate or tenn
permanent, or an Unborn sense OF econ
omy, may wear silks or thin wool, but
we insist upon our ephemeral materi-
ais, and every year produces new ones
for Us. This, Of course, Is a taffeta
season, and we are all wearing 1t &C
cordingly. In order to cater to both
parties we combine It with net, lawn,
muslin and Organdie in the form OF COL
ored basques, coates and the sleeve
less jackets, which It is now possible
to buy separately In the department
stores. What are called porch frocks'
are sold In great variety.
1t is a good thing for one OF the prin-
cipal products Of our own country that
we so generally adopt the cotton fab
rics for summer wear. But regard we
this, as the French say. Some months
ago an active cotton crusade to help
the south" was Inaugurated with great
blowing OF rumpets. 1t was demon
strated to us how many varied articles
were made Of cotton, and endless were
the surprises Of finding, for example,
that ones white London IVORY comb
was really made OF southern cotton.
We were urged to give up linen bed
coverings and take TO the less frigid
cotton ones; even the superior light
ness and washableness Of cotton blan-
kets were pointed out to Us. Ardent
crusaders implored Us to relinquish the
silk petticoats. which widened skirts
had Just caused Us to adopt, and take
to cotton substitutes. Everybody talk
ed cotton for a few weeks, and then
the whole subject died a natural death
until the Partisan designers, who know
nothing about the south and care les,
suddenly revived It with the decree Of
two washable petticoats under the sum-
mers nounced gowns.

A New Way to Play With the Sea.

A New Way to Play With the Sea.
The traditional way to play with the
surf is to dive through the breakers.
There is, however, another game that
Is still more riotous fun and gives the
waves a fairer chance.
The bather wades out to the Line
where the breakers begin to curl ana
the water is about shoulder deep and
stands facing out to sea with his eye
on the coming wave. Just before tne
wave begins to lift to form the break
er the bather throws himself on MS
back and floats in that way-head To-
ward the shore, feet toward the sea
II he has judged time and distance
correctly the curling breaker Will PICK
up the bather, feet first, turn him heels
over head and leave him standing on
his feet. ready for the next wave. II
he misjudges the timing or the as

Half a dozen jars Of jam packed into
