point but were fatal to discipline or
the troops None the less subvcrsire

serted created an extremely dangerous
quality of power.
The general maintained that after
publication by the government Of the
declaration OF the rights Of soldiers. all
respect toward leaders disappeared. the
officers becoming veritahle martyrs and
having to pay very dearly for the often

markable illustrations Of this. On one
occasion. he said. when an attack was
being launched the forces which ad-

non commissioned officers and two SOL

The general declared 1t would be
impossible to carry on the war to a VIC
torious conclusion unless the strongest
possible efforts were made by the pro-
visional government and by the troops
themselves to re-animate and resener-
ate the army.

My dear Mother:
/ sent down to THE BISBEE STUDIO for the
proofs of Betty's pictures and you will be
prOuder than ever of your grandchild when
| send you her beautiful photographs
There was little gift ready for Baby
Betty the other day Just after her picture
was made and / ann so delighted with it that
1 must tell You all about it,
1t is little record called Baby's Book,
so very dainty and unlike any / have seen
before, for Mrs. Bisbee wrote the verses and
planned the arrangement and copyrighted
both book and verses in the name of the
studio. | told her l felt it was a distinct
compliment to Betty and all the other ba-
bies, bit Mrs. Bisbee said the smiling pat
ronage Of so large a percentage of the ba-
bies of the Twin Falls country is an equal
compliment which THE BISBEE STUDIO sin
cerely appreciates.
We thought for quite a time,' she said
about what we could do for the babies
what we could give them that would be dis
tinctive and more and more valuable as the
years 90 by. And Baby's Book seemed the
very incest thing we could think Of so here
1t is with spaces for entries about Betty I'M
til she is three years old. And, of course'
Mrs. Bisbee added eve have many more
pretty baby books, one for every little baby
we photograph"
You may be sure Mother that I'll take
pleasure in keeping all the records suggest
ed through the quaint little pages. For in
stance, just imagine the ceremony we are
going to have on Baby's first birthday when
we want data to write above this little verse
"We're trying to weigh the baby today,
How can we ever do it?
What scale can value the silken hair
With the sunshine playing through it?
What scale can reckon the soft warm hands
With all the dimples they hold?
Oh, Baby, dear Baby, whatever your weight,
You are worth it all in gold.
When [ 60 back to Iowa to visit you, year
after next, I'll take Betty's baby book with
me and we will read it together
Lots of love,
Ruth.
