Hints To Parents.

Heating an infants milk so as TO slay
all possible germs Is important. He will
collect more germs from handling his
high chair. his shoes, the rugs, his toys,
his clothings, etc, etc, Immediately
thereafter putting his hands into his
mouth but II his milk Is poured into
him at temperature OF 27s degrees the
fluid will destroy the microbes before
they have obtained a footing in the
stomach. Boiling the infant himself
each evening before he Is put to bed is
effcacious, but many mothers object, as
1t gives the children somewhat old and
weathered look and no woman likes to
be accused OF wearing a last years baby
after the new models have come in.
Teach baby to crawl across the room
toward you when you whistle. Begin
by trailing a piece OF zwieback attached
to a string about the floor a few inches
in front of the infant, whistling the
while. Always. after a few minutes,
give him the zwieback. Later. baby can
be taught to crawl In any direction in
obedience to whistles. The sound OF
small animal crawling toward him
through the darkness. guided by
whistles from an unseen source. is very
terrifying to a burglar. A baby has the
advantage over a watchdog. that he
cannot be lured from his duty by pieces
OF poisoned meat; he knows that after
a certain amount OF whistling he will be
given the zwieback.

and the ordinary metal clasps designed

through being chewed or are eaten out
right In a couple of weeks. The ideal
method is to fasten the cover firmly
at the foot of the bed and attach strong
cables 20 the two upper corners Of the
cover; these cables are in turn attach
ed to the tails of two elephants. who
stand at the head OF the bed, pointing
away from 1t. Just a couple OF inches
beyond reach of the trunk OF each ele-
plant stands a parent with a red APP
pie. The elephants stand throughout
the night straining forward to get the
apples, pulling the cableA taut and keep
ing the covers drawn tight over the
baby.

What Hughes Would
Do If Elected

We do not propose to tolerate
any improper interference with
American property, with American
mails or with legitimate commercial
intercourse.
No American who is exercising
only American rights shall be put
on any blacklist by any foreign
nation.
We porpose to protect American
lives. American property and Amer
lean trade according to ou- rights
under international law. This is
a policy of peace. not of war. 1t
Is a policy which assures respect.
We desire to maintain the integ-
rity OF international law and the
rights OF neutral states.
But we shall achieve nothing in
service to humanity unless we
maintain our self-respect and the
dignity OF American citizenship.
That Is the true path of national
peace and security.
The Administration asks for a
vote of confidence, but it, defen-
ders cry out in protest when its
record Is critically examined. When
its humiliating failure to safe
guard American rights is held up
to deserve condemnation, II seeks
to escape by asserting that it's
conduct had no alternative but
war: that to disapprove its con-
duct Is to favor war.
We all desire peace, but we de-
sire peace 10 be honorably main

A GREAT PENNANT SERIES

The first two games in the worlds
pennant series have overturned the
forecasts. 1t was confidently an
ticipated that Boston would have
the better of Brooklyn in pitching;
but the best pitching that has been
done in the two games was by
Smith, of Brooklyn, and the next
best work was by Marquard, also of
Brooklyn. In each game the Brook
Ign finger distinctly bettered his
opponent.
1t was expected that Boston
would outfeld Brooklyn; and this
has been the case. The composite
score of the two games gives Boston
a fielding record of .999 per cent,
against a record of $50 for Brook
Ign. Moreover, the Bostons have made
the more spectacular showing In
fielding, for they have to their credit
five double plays, as against two
made by Brooklyn. In intield double
plays, Boston has made four, while
Brooklyn has made only one.
When it comes to batting, Brook
Ign was supposed to have a con-
siderably better chance. 1t pos
sessed the better individual players,
and on the seasons batting record
was entitled to lead at the bat.
But the two games have reversed
anticipations. The Bostons have a
batting record, for two games, of
.219; while Brooklyn's stick record
is .203. Probably the average of
judgment, in advance of the test,
would have just about reversed these
figures, and assumed that Brooklyn
would make the .219 and Boston the
.203 percentage.
With two games slowed away to
its credit, Boston is, of course. a
long way toward the pennant. It
needs to win two more to carry off
the flag; Brooklyn, to win the series,
will have to take four games out of
five. With the best pitching talent
of Brooklyn exhausted in losing two
games, it looks decidedly like the
Red Sox'S series.

insistence on known rights, by de-
serving and holding the esteem
of the world. We have not kept out
of war; we have not enforced our
rights; we have sacrificed our
honor.
Has America forgotten Carrizal?
What was that-peace or war?
Again the Administration lamenta-
bly, failed to perform the primary
duty to safeguard American lives
referring TO the submarine war
fare). The Administration was not
convincing, Its words were many,
but ineffective. because II was not
believed that they would be backed
by deeds.
Had this Government. by the use
of both Informal and formal diplo-
matte opportunities. left no doubt
that when we said strict accounta-
bility" we meant precisely what we
said. and that we should unhesitat-
ingly vindicate that position, am
confiden. that there would have been
the sinking OF the Lusitania.
What Is the purpose Of this at
tempt to make the public believe
that this bill (the eight hour measure)
fixes an eight-hour workday? Mani

tify this extraordinary action OF the
Administration In its abject and hui

demanding and securing this legis-
lation without any proper inquiry as
the price of peace.-From Charles f.

AN ACT OF DESPERATION

In attempting a blockade Of the
Atlantic ports Of this country, Ger
many is making war against the
United States in the most effective
way open to her. It will be inter-
esting to see how effectively the
German foreign office will string to-
gether the various loose and unfortu-
nate concessions that Washington
has granted to her submarine meth
DDS, and make them appear as a
warrant for blockading our coast
and sinking ships that. attempt to
run the blockade. e..
Is there any record of great ma
ton permitting such an ighominious
insult? We went to war with France
when we were in the very swaddling
clothes Of national infancy, for less
cause. We fought the war Of 1912
for less cause. Germany, taking
stock Of our wealth, our potential
power, the absolute certainty that to
add us to her array OF enemies would
mean her ruin, nevertheless conf
IDENTIFY assumes that we will not re-
sent this latest attack.
Germany has decided that one Of
two things is reasonably certain.
Either she is sure that no possible
cause would make the United States
go to war; or else she has decided
that Germany is destined to be de-
feated in this war, and that she
would prefer to be defeated by the
whole world. The newest submarine
atrocities constitute the supreme in
suit to the United States or else an
act of sheer desperation; or both.

NEARBY DEMOCRATS
ASKED TO RALLY HERE
Arrangements for Big Mass
meeting on October 20 Be-
ing Completed.

Arrangements are being completed by
the officials OF the Wilson Marshall As
ISOLATION for a big mass-meeting at Con-
vention Hall on the night Of October 20.
Delegations from adjoining counties in
Maryland and Virginia, as we'll as DEM
ocrats in the District are expected to
attend in large numbers.
1t had first been planned to have
President Wilson speak at the meeting,
and a committee was appointed to in
vite him, but word came from Shadow
Lawn indirectly that the President was
not accepting invitations of the sort,
and the plan apparently has been aban-
doned.
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, and
other labor leaders will address a meet
ing to be held next week at the National
Rifles Armory under the auspices OF
the Wilson Eight-Hour League.
At its meeting last night at the Ebbitt
the Wilson Marshall Association made
plans for comprehensive organization
Of Democratic sentiment in the Dis
trlct on much wider scale than ever
before.
Speeches were made by oliver p.
Newman, chairman of the District Com
missioners; Charles w, Darr, president
OF the association; Col. r. N. Harper
and others.

myriad Of warm, glowing

into a myriad Of warm, glowing
colors.
Over the river hung haze, just
the slightest suggestion Of haze,
but enough TO catch and transform
the suns early rays into prismatic
colors. The shaft Of the Monument
and the tower of the Postoffice
seemed suggestions, rather than
material things, far away in the
mysterious low-hanging clouds. Ur-
ban could not rival such colors;
Bakst could not produce such COM
binations.
Isn't that comparison an indica-
ton of our artificial ways Of living?
Once we used to liken pictures to
the forests, and trees, and rivers,
and mountains. Now the best we
can do when a natural wonder pre-
sents itself is to say, $50 like
Corot," "colors like Turner'S" "gives
you a suggestion Of Blakelock."
Living in cities, with art galleries
and theaters all about, we get things
sadly twisted sometimes. Mornings
like this, perhaps, are natures anti
dotes for that sort Of thing.

Yet Another New Art Movement.

Did you walk to work this morn

Days like this, why should you
trouble whether cars are crowded?
