Judges Say That Lack Of Circumcision
Greatest Cause of Defects Seen
Next Came Feeding Condensed
Milk, Causing Ricketts,.

According to the judges who awarded
prizes in the babies contest under the
auspices of the farmers institute, the
three best babies in Kenosha are:
First, Willard g. Hanson, the eight
and one-half months old son Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Anthony d. Hanson, 483 Pomeroy
street. The young man Is tally sheet is
said by the judges to be almost exactly
in accord with the measurements,
weights and other requirements printed
on the American Medical society's list
of requirements for the perfect baby
ing Of babies was done according to
the standards of the American Medical
society. Master Willard G. is of Amer
lean parentage. He is breast-fed
baby. He has never been i'll. He has
never cried any to speak of, for when
he began he was quickly changed about
and made comfortable so he would
stop. He is the fourth child in a fam.
lily in which the oldest child is fourteen
years.

The winner of the second prize is
Miss Eileen Cavanagh, who was aged
ten months and ten days when she en-
tered the contest. She is the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Cavanagh, 364
Congress street. She is of American
parentage and has been breast-fed with
the addition of certified milk. "I have
kept in constant touch with the doctor
in caring for the baby" said Mrs. Ca
vanagh. EShe has never had bad
crying spell in her life. If she begins
to fret she is Immediately attended to
and the cause Of her discomfort re-
moved. She has always slep Through
the night without being restless. :"
The winner of the third prize is
Mistress Natalie Fonk, the twenty
psonths old daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Wendelin Fonk, S67 Pomeroy street.
Her father is German and her mother
is Irish. She has never been ill and
has been breast fed.
The judges were all doctors of good

Modest or Scared?
With customary professional modesty
they refuse to allow their names to be
printed. And as one of them remark
ed, in addition to the modesty motive,
there is the feeling that the parents of
all the 800 and more babies examined,
excepting only those of the prize win
ming babies, would be greatly wroth at
the decision and would probably ban
ish the doctors from the city were their
names to be made public.
''The examining physicians" said
Miss Louise Cottrell who was in charge
of the baby welfare department. of the
institute, reported that one of the
commonest defects in the male children
examined was caused by the need of
circumcision
Babies that had been fed condensed
milk were usually marked by tend
ency to ricketts,, overweight and retard-
ed teething.
F'The babies of foreign parents were
almost unfailingly breast fed while
those of many of the American moth
ers were artifcially fed, with the re-
sultant defects which ruled them out

Il believe" Mr.. Hughes said, that
credit should be given where credit is
due, but think 1t important that no
man should claim to have done what
he has not done.
Our opponents present a record OF
broken promises. They promised to
reduce the cost of living. They have
not touched It.
Merit System Hetrayed.s
They promised to prevent waste
and extravaganza. They have been
more extravagant in the recent Con-
gress, as I am informed. on unim-
peachable authority, than any preced-
ing Congress
"Our opponents promised TO apply
the principles of the merit system.
They have betrayed the merit system.
"Our opponents promised to reduce
useless Offices. Instead they have
created useless offices.
"Our opponents promised that the
rights of American citizens should be
maintained throughout the world.
their rights with respect to life and
property. They have shamelessly
failed 10 perform that promise.
Acts are facts, and extravagant
claims cannot deceive the intelligent

ed to force. II was stated by the
Executive in his address to Congress
that the matter had been agitated
for more than a year. Why then was It
not investigated? Could not the sd-
ministration command all necessary
machinery for fair and thorough In
quiry? Not only did the administra-
ton fail TO take proper action on its
own initiative. but the business men
Of the country appealed in vain to
the administration for investigation.
Their request won no favorable ac-
ton
"rime was allowed to run, and then
came he surrender that shocked the
people throughout the land. Was the
crisis unforeseen? Why was n per-
mitted TO arise when the administra-
tion was forewarned?
Stands for Arbitration.
Il stand for the principle of arbitra-
tion in industrial disputes Labor,
least Of all, can afford to have that
principle surrendered. II Is 3 civilized
method, as opposed TO the injurious
contests OF force, which impoverish la
Dor and imperil the social order. The
essence of the matter is a fair and
reasonable hearing of all parties con-
cerned and a just determination ac-
cording TO the facts.
1T is no answer to say that the
awards OF arbitration are not always
just. The effort should be 10 improve
reasonable methods. not 20 subvert
them. Railroad companies refusing ar
bitration have been condemned at the
bar Of public opinion, and great prog
ress has been made in the direction OF
the peaceful and reasonable settle
ment OF labor disputes.
ITO say that fair and prompt arbi-
tration could not have been had in
this case Is 10 indict both the admin
istration and the American people
Principle Yielded.
Mr.. Hughes held that there was
no justification Of the yielding OF
principle" or those who sought to
excuse the administration" on the
ground OF exigency he would ask, he
said how far do you propose to- yield
to force?" Asserting that force Can
reject courts as well as arbitration,
that il can dispose with any part OF
the orderly procedure of government
which It may oppose" Mr. Hughes
continued;
when force is proposed and arbi-
tration is refused. there is but one
stand 10 take and that ia TO appeal to
the Judgment OF the country TO vindi-
cate the processes OF reason. Had the
executive, when arbitration was de-
clined at once. directed the entire force
OF public opinion as he easily could, TO
the demand for the recognition OF the
principle OF arbitration, I have no
doubt he would have won, and the ma
ton would have been his debtor"
Recltes Broken Promises.
In his address before the Republican
State Convention at Peoria this morn

Democratic party as party of brok-
en- promises. which now presents ex-
travagant claims"

Notice to National Guard

In view OF the fact that many OF
our boys are going to the defense Of
our country, we want to call their
attention to n matter that vitality
concerns them.
Many OF their Life Insurance Pol
icies provide that in case OF war, ,un-
less his policy has been properly
endorsed by the company for such
an emergency, and death occurs
to the insured while on duty, the
insurance cannot be collected.
In order To obviate such an unfurt-
innate cordition, each soldier shonll
examine his policy and ii it contains
such n provision he should have ii
properly endorsed so as to surely
protect his interests.
, If SO desired, the policy can bt
sent to the Colorado Insurance De
partment and we will gladly attent
to the whole matter.
