The Life Of a Baby

The chance of life of baby grows
sppsllingly less as the fstner's earn
ings grow smaller This il shown in
the results Of the Investigations OF the
Children's B1reAu, made puollc in It's
fifth annual report
The BGreau's studies of infant NOR.
tslity were made among %, 900 bahies
in eight American cities Johnstown,
Pa, Montclsir, N j., Manchester, N.
H., Brockton, Mass, Saginaw, Mich.
New Bedford, Mass, Waterbury,
Conn and Akron. Ohio. One fourth
OF all the fathers earned lsss than $3.50
year; in these fam lies every sixth
baby died. Only about one-eighth of
the fathers esrnedsSi0. 90 or more; of
their labies only one in sixteen died.
The rise Of prices and the disorganiza
tion of social and industrial life with
the war accentuste the importance of
this persistent relation of income to
infant morCslIty
these studies show that to provide
mothers care ana decent home cOndi-
tions, the fathers must have ADEQUATE
income. In Manchester, N. n nearly
tnree-fourths Of the mothers whose
husbands earned less than $3.50 year
were ganfully employed; only about
tenth when the husbands wsge wss
$1,000 or over. The babies OF mothers
who went out to work died at more
than twice the rate Of more fortunate
children.

"THE PRINCESS PAT +"
Coming To The Colonial Theatre De-
cember 27

On Thursday evening, December
9th, at the Colonial Theatre, the No.
l Cort Theatre, New York production
of Victor Herbert and Henry Bios
som's greatest musical play, THE
Princess Pat" will be presented.
From its opening in New York it play
ed with unabated success for over six
months and after a short road tour,
it will return to the metropolis where
it is safe to assert it will prove as
great a favorite as during its original
run. For "The Princes Pat" Mr..
Blossom has, it is said. written book
that is very bright and humorous and,
what is more, has given to it con-
sistent and interesting story of the
manner in which Irritation may be
employed to win back the warm love
of a husband by his charming, but
neglected little wife. In evolving this
plot to it's satisfactory conclusion, an
almost continuous chain of odd COM
plicaticns are met with.
Combined with a book that fairly
scintillates, are a score of numbers in
Mr.. Herberts Enthusiastically happy
style. There is rather wide range of
music.

seven grand-nieces and grand
nephews. With the present of the

the Importance of saving money, es-
pecially during this war. The chill

At Asbury Church Yesterday

Or. Riley's Ode, "Oh Lord of Hosts!
Their Leader Be-" was sung last eve
ming at the regular services at AS
bury Methodist Episcopal Church,
Rev. e. S. Williams, pastor, by the
Surpliced Choir of that church, Miss
Carrie Brice, leader, and Prof r.
Newton Moore, organist After a
choice singing service, the vested
choir, with slow and solemn step. en-
tered the church and proceeded to
the altar and choir loft rendering
with emotion, Come ye faithful.
raise the strain of triumphant glad
ness" Reaching the chancel the
choir chanted the Greed and after an
extemporaneous prayer, the singers
also chanted the Lords Prayer. Then
followed I'm the cross of Christ
glory"
At this point the pastor announced
that the new Ode would be sung
Rev Dr. Hughes then read the hymn
and the choir sang it, The musicians
brought out in splendid form the
original tune, "Columbia's Supplica-
tion,' which has been composed for
the Ode by Miss Lille E. Henkel, Of
this city. The words and the music
ran on all four" The fine technique
of the choir sang the music into the
words, and revealed the unity of the
song and the notes, and produced a
delightful harmony of sweet sounds
and melodious combination The
L.. ,sr...
with the sentiments of the Ode, gave
to the hymn clear and ringing
meaning, and produced a delightful
effect well pleasing to the ear, and
arousing most patriotic feelings.
DR.. Riley, accompanied by his
friends. Mr. and Mrs Joseph NJ
Armstrong, who are deeply inter-
es'ed in bringing public attention to
the de, were present At the con-
clus'on of the hymn, at the sugges-
tlGn Of the pastor, the author rose
and said in substance that he was
profoundly grateful to the pastor and
the choir for having rendered his Ode
in such splendid form. He could
find no language to express the deep
feeling of appreciation that it had
aroused. No people sing like the
colored people. He was greatly
moved to have his own hymn sung
by his fellow-citizens and his Metho-
dist brethern
This Ode will be sung at the Christ
mas entertainment of st. Mary's
Parochial School on Thursday after
noon, at O'Clock.
It was sung few Sunday evenings
since at Trinity Methodist Episco-
pal Church, South. at the West End,
Rev. Mr. Fielding, pastor.

CHRISTMAS AND THE CHILD.

You little children in whose eyes
The undimmed light of heaven
glows,
Whose dreams are bright of paradise.
Whose thoughts are whittier than the
SHOWS,
From holy lips and undefiled
Breathe your soft prayers like Christ
the Child.
And you whose thinning locks are
spent
With unreturning autumns's rime,
Whose forms, like wind worn trees,
are bent
Beneath the heavy storms of time.
Take Christ the Child to be your
guide
Past the dim shoal where shadows
bide,
Oh, saving hands; oh, thou that hears
An earthly mothers lullabies,
Who shares all our doubts and fears,
Whose bosom trembles to our sighs,
Teach US thy gospel pure and mild!
Make us like thee, o Christ the Child.
