ment to children. Growth Is the great
business of childhood, and normal
healthy growth should proceed in or
derly fashion, day by dry without
cessation. But IL a child must give a
few days or few weeks now and then
TO an illness, I'm the course OF which
he suffers from fever, pain, or Il de-
bllltating cough, or an Irritation OF
the skin, or sore and swollen throat,
or an aching ear, II may be, normal
development will be interfered with
for the time being.
Even IL the child's life is saved
as It too often is pot-the net results
of such conditions, including often
complications of differing degrees Of
severity, cannot, by any stretch Of
the imagination, he considered bene-
fetal to him. When to all this is add
ed the work and worry Of the mother
her sleepless nights and anxious days
and, to put 1t on the lowest plane, the
cost of doctors and possibly nurses
and medicines, the sum total OF the
cost of the common diseases Of child
hood is past calculation.
The wise mother, abreast OF the
current of modern scientific thought,
strives to keep her children well. She
does not permit them to suffer from a
single hour of Illness that IL is possi-
BILE for them to avoid. In this effort
she does not allow them to play with
children who are coughing and sneez-
ing; she does not allow them to 90 to
the houses of sick children, nor to at
tend public gatherings of any sort
when the more dangerous con-
tagiOus diseases are about On the
other hand, she remembers that she
has a duty to all other children Of the
neighborhOod, and If her own child is
ailing she isOlates him until the nature
Of his illness is determined, and strives
by every means In her power to mini
mize the danger for other children.
When more mothers thus make them
selves morally responsible for the lives
and health of all the children we shall
have the beginning of the end of the
spread of the contagious diseases.
A periodic examination of all chill
dren by physicians would do much to
prevent the development of many |
and defects, or to secure
their early and more hopeful treat
ment. This is practically secured for
babies in the infant welfare stations |
now in operation in many cities of this
country. 1t is secured to a limited
extent in the medical examination of
school children, also but too little at
tentiOn is commonly paid to the chill
dren of the pre-school age who are no
longer babies and yet are hardly more
able to do without care than babies.
It is to these children of the neglect
I'd age" that mothers are now turning
heir attention and interest particu-
arly.
A Baby Week campaign will have
many good results, but none more inn
)Ortant than bringing to light many
,hiIdren who need care of some spe-
,ial sort, and showing mothers how
Detter to meet this demand upon their
esources of knowledge and wisdom.

Perhaps no better illustration could
be given of the paralysis of teaching
power which is inevitable if mothers
are overwhelmed with cares or with
interests which leave them no time
for slow, patient observation and
training Of child's activinLs.

exquisite colors, says fashion corre-

and, of course, black and white, are
the favorite combinations. A model of

embroidered in ''tete de negre" shows

novel feature. They are about six or

as possible. BY chewing what you do
eat to as fine a pulp as possible you
will be able ito get a greater amount
out of little food. Also you will not
want to eat us much and your stomach
will not have to work hard to digest
it. Eat plenty OF fresh fruit and green
vegetables They are non-heat pro-
ducing articles. Meats should be
avoided. Fat pork. butter oils and
starchy substances are essentially heat
producing articles. Fried foods also
should be avoided for they have a
tendency to prevent proper elimination
of the body's waste. When this &C.
ours the body easily becomes over
heated.
In hot weather one should drink
twice as much water as at other sea-
sons Of the year. This produces per-
sniratien which helps to cool the body
when it goes through the process OF
evaporation upon the surface Of the
skin.
The daily bath is essential when the
weather is warm. 1t helps to wash
off all waste matter secreted upon the
| skin by the sweat glands. If this coat
| ing is allowed to remain upon the skin
surface II causes the body to over
heat.
Cool off by taking a cold bath just
| before retiring. It will enable one ia
drop off to sleep despite the heat. A
good nights sleep is one OF the best
means of preparing for n hot day.
Do as much of your work In the
shade as possible. Take the trouble
to walk on the shady side Of the
street. Work hardest during the COOL
est part of the day and ease up when
the heat becomes oppressive.

who lives in New Haven township, was
held up by two men on East Oliver

ground with all it's contents Sunday
morning. The loss is partially covered
by insurance.
The origin of the fire is unknown
No one had been in the house since
o'clock Saturday afternoon. when Nor
man Franz, who lived there alone, left.
There was practically no fire in the
STOVES at that time, however. Between
2and o'clock Sunday morning, how
ever, Glen Bignall, neighbor, saw
flames shooting from the roof of the
house. He spread the alarm, but it was
too late as the house was practically a
wreck. The flames started on the first
floor apparently, and worked upward.
The house could not be replaced now
for less than $4,000. In addition to the
building, which belonged TO the elder
Franz, Norman Franz lost about $3.50
worth of furniture and clothing.

WILLIAM FOX'S MASTERPIECE
A WINGED VICTORY
At Strand Theatre, Owosso, Monday
and Tuesday, February 8 and 6.

Art lovers and "movie" fans Of
this city will soon have in common,
one great topic of conversation. The
feature which is called the "picture
beautiful" could not well be any
thing else, with Annette Kellermann
in the title role; but Miss Keller
mann, with William Fox IS producing
genius and ample strong Ibo back Of
her, is the radient joy Of picture
that is Incompatible. This Triple
Alliance has swept every other So
called superlative feature from the
motion picture field and gained
position that is well nigh invincible.
1t is so far in advance of anything
that has yet been produced that we
urge every progressive citizen to make
a happy holiday for himself and en-
JOY this phoenix of the films. "Phoe-
nix we consider happy metaphor,
for William Fox literally burned the
American gold eagle in focks as his
tribute to the altar Of Art.
About 100000 went up in smoke
in one scene alone, when torch was
set to the Moorish city, to get a pic
turesque background for the great
battle scene, and the evacuation of
the Sultan s capitol.
The story is one of enhancing in
terest and displays Miss Kellermann' s
individual skill and wonderful figure
to undreamed-of advantage. This
slip Of a girl, who nevertheless car
ries the palm as the most perfectly
formed woman in the world, should
also be given a. prize for talent and
IL Carnegie medal for bravery. One
IS at a loss to know in which guise
she is most admirable. We see her in
the sapphire Caribbean, as graceful
and mysteriously alluring as the sea-
anemone; she flies like gull through
the air in 100-foot dive, and on
earth mergcs herself with the forest
as naturally as Diana. In the mad
sultan s palace, she dances with the
inspiration of pagan angel, and lat
er, astrlde war-girt steed, rides like
a Crusader at the head of her army.
If you want to see what q real mil
lion dollar picture looks like, and
where every dollar of that million got
its return in beauty, talent and set
ting, you will have that opportunity
one in a lifetime-if you go to see
"a Daughter of The Gods'' at the
Strand Theatre next Monday and
Tuesday.

Michigan Day Celebration.

The celebration of Michigan Day
by Shiawassee Chapter Daughters of
the American Revolution was held in
the social room of Carnegie library,
Friday, and was pleasant affair. The
members made all guests feel quite at
home, the receiving line including the
regent, Mrs. A. NJ. Hume, and other
officers and past officers.
The regent presided in her usual
graceful manner. First was heard
the reading of essays on Michigan by
Leon Willoughby, John Kelly and
Mis-" Clara Kaltrider, three high
school students. All were we'll pre-
pared and forcibly presented and
were very creditable from every
standpoint. The judges latef awarded
the first prize to Mr.. Willoughby, and
was divided between the other two,
hence no distinction was drawn.
The Woman s club sextette render
ed two numbers very acceptably and
Mrs. F. F. Hoyer and Misses Mitchell
pleased the company with a selection.
Miss Kaltrider also rendered a diff
cult piano number.
Mrs. Maude Thompson, of the Wo-
man S club, spoke interestingly of the
society she officially represents, and
extended greetings to the. d. A. r.,
commencing it for the splendid work
being done for the promotion of pat
riotism and education in all its
phases. The work Of the two societies
is similar In many respects and both
are working for the good of society.
Geo. #. Campbell was introduced as
the only Owosso member of the Sons
Of the American Revolution and he
spoke briefly and in closing present
cd, as he was requested to do, Major
M. j. Phillips, late of the U. S. army,
but now retired by virtue of a dis
charge issued him as well as other
representatives Of the 31st Michigan
regiment, lately returned from the
border. Major Phillips had been ask
ed to speak Of army life on the bor-
der His remarks were informal and
Hume s infrmary company of twen-
interesting. He complimented highly
the personnel and service of Capt
ty-five Owosso men and Co. II, 33rd
regiment, made up of sixty-fve men
from 0wosso and vicinity. He in
tcrested his audience by telling in de-.
tail some of the routine life of camp
and work in the field.i Appreciation
was extended for the generous Christ
mas boxes and contributions made by
Owosso people through the ID. A. r.
Following the program light. re-
freshments were served and a social
time INDUCED in. Altogether the oc-
casion was most enjoyable.
