Around the Citv

A young man waited under the avn
ing of a department store while his
wife was inside shopping.
You could tell it was his wife because
he held in his arms baby with a bald
head and legs that were bare except
for wool bootees-white and pink. The
baby cooed and kicked. And the young
man looked down at 1t and smiled and
chirruped the way fathers have done
since Adam-Lord love them-and the
two made a picture of purest delight.
This Washington of ours Is alive with
sensible women. All of US know them
by the dozen. But they didn't seem to
be f1ocking around conspicuously just
then. Many people. of course. went in
and out of the store without feeling
called upon to consider the young man
and the baby. but-there are always
others. And it is the irresponsible ex-
ception that makes itself heard, for In
stance:
One woman, who looked as if she
really ought to know better, suggested
to the young man that pin might be
sticking into the little darling; it
kicked so.
It wasn't pins. 1t was the JOY of
living.
Another considered 1t her bounden
duty to warn him that when a baby
chewed it's fists it was a sign of
hunger.
Now, you know right we'll that when
a baby is hungry the surrounding
country is going to know it.
Several women-no, to do the sex
justice, only two women-felt called on
to snicker ostentatiously. as if the
young man were doing something he
ought to be ashamed of and they had
