CARING FOR CHILD is PROFESSION, SAYS.
BILLIE BURKE, FAMOUS ACTRESS -

AMOOS AZ lkkSS
learned by every woman who would
bring up a,healthy child to maturity.
Every woman should have the
crowning experience of motherhood,
but that does not say that every
woman, whether she is suited to it or
not, should have the physical care Of
children placed upon her.
81 say this much more for the sake
Of the child than for the sake of the
mother. A mother with the best in
tentions in the world might be an ut
ter failure through ignorance in car
ing for her child.
GAS our civilization and ethics are
now practiced the entire details Of
child culture rest upon woman.
Somehow, think we leave too much
to chance>in this important worlds
work.
1--WE should pay more attention to
the coming race than to leave it dur
ing it's most important years in mex
perienced hands, I have wonderful
ideas about the care and culture of
my little daughter have given
great deal of thought to the matter.
''These ideas may be ultra-radical,
but you can work them out to a log
ical conclusion, and my baby is too
precious to her mother to be raised
in the haphazard fashion that now
seems to- be in vogue"
Beginning tomorrow Billie Burke
will tell in The Day Book how she
will raise her baby.

WALTHER LEAGUE IS
PRAISED BY PASTOR
Rev Wilder Urges Church Work.
ers to Cooperate-To Sell
Seals.

The members of the Walther
League met at Trinity Hall last night
to listen to an address delivered by
Rev. August Wilder, pastor of the big
Lutheran church in this city. He talk
ed to the young church workers on
cooperation.
"The Walther League" said Rev.
Wilder, as just like a big machine.
Each member is a part of it and
alone is helpless. But like the machine
the Walther League can grow and per-
form it's great functions if every MEM
Der works together. Without cooper
alton the league cannot serve its pur-
pose"
DR.. Wilder complimented the men,
bers of the organization upon the in
terest shown in their work and urged
them to make an endeavor to do more
next year than they have done in the
closing twelve months.
1t was announced at the meeting
that members of the Walther League
would sell Christmas seals during the
coming holidays for the benefit Of the
Lutheran Sanitarium at Wheatridge,
Colo. This institution is maintained by
gifts from Lutherans all over the
country. Members of this faith, who
are victims of tuberculosis, are per-
mitted to go to Wheatridge and live
without debt.

company, Mr.. Hoffman said, was the
fact that law had been passed in
England compelling the insurance
companies to invest one-half of their
assets in government bonds. A num-
Der of, the large insurance companies
in the United States have agencies
in England and vice versa, and for
that reason the companies had to as
sist the government in raising funds
for the prosecution Of war.
The passage of the government
farm loan act will aid to offset the
results of the insurance companies
canceling future loans on farm lands.
the government loan is more
complicated in being secured by the
farmer, othei. advantages such as a
lower interest rate and easier pay
ments reward the farmer for taking
the government loan on his property.

BAKERIES PLACED
UNDER U.S.C0NTR0L
Standard L0aves and Ingredients
Provided in New Food
Regulation.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-Presi-
dent Wilson issued proclamation to-
day placing all bakeries under gov
eminent license December 10 and sub
jecting them to food administration
rules prescribing ingredients and the
weights of loaves. Prices will not be
fixed, but with the Standardization
it is expected that the natural compe-
tition and simplification of distribu-
ton will force down prices for pound
loaves to Z and 8 cents.
Fancy breads will be eliminated
and the multitude of rolls now pro-
duced will be reduced to four with
standard ingredients. The weights
will be one pound, one and half,
two and four pounds. The loaves
will have a crease in the middle to
permit their sale in halves. In bak-
ing only three pounds of sugar will
be allowed for a barrel of flour in
stead of an average of six pounds
now used and two pounds of vegetable
oil shortening must be used instead
of six pounds of lard or oil. BY this
the food adm illustration expects to
save 100000 pounds of sugar and
the same amount of lard. Bakers may
use only skinned milk for bread and
rolls will be permitted only if made
in standard sizes and of regulation
bread dough.
The price of English bread is now
AZ cents per pound cash and carry
This bread contains 25 per cent of
other cereals or potatoes and further
more it is subsidized by the govern,
ment, an appropriation of S200,0OO,-
600 having been made to finance the
operation.
Reports reaching Hoover indicate
that since September from IL to ii
per cent of the flour has been saved
by household economies promoted by
the food administration The bakers
voluntary rule against accepting re-
turns of stale bread is estimated to
have saved 100000 barrels of flour.

MINE FIELDS MENACE NORWAY
Ownership Of Drifting Agents Of De.
structlon !s Mattei. Of
Doubt.

Christiana.-Drifting mine fields are
reported along the whole Norwegian
coast from Listerland eastward. Off
Halo, 20 mines were seen drifting
north to Christiana ford, and from
Halyo many explosions have been
heard.
The drifting mine fields are sur
rounded by mass of drifting wreck
age. Norwegian motor boats have
salved many casks Of wine, margarine
and whale oil.
The ownership of the drifting mine
fields Is matter of doubt. Certainly
nobody is anxious to claim them, for
they do not conform to the rules of
The Hague convention, which pre-
scribes that mines shall be so con-
structed that they become harmless

Big INSURANCE
COMPANIES STOP
FARMLANDLOANS
Investments in Liberty Loan
Bonds Is Given as
Reason.
COMPANIES MUST KEEP
FUNDS TO HELP u. S.
Local Agent Ordered Not to Take
Any Applications for Farm
Loans in Future.

All loans by majority of the in
surance companies on farm ianGs and
other real estate have been suspended
for an indefinite period for the reason
that the large insurance companies
are reserving their assets and capital
stock for the purchase of Liberty
bonds when the third issue is author
lied. This was learned yesterday when
z. D.. Hoffman, a local insurance rep
resentative, received orders from his
home companies to stop negotiating
loans on any farms or real estate.
Mr.. Hoffman represents several
large insurance companies of the
country and averages about 100000
on farm land loans in fourteen coun-
ties of Southeast Missouri, he said
last night. All these loans to the in
dividuals are made by the insurance
companies.
During the last Liberty bond issue,
JIG Tile ulpdlilCo jldu
subscribed for large amounts of Lib
erty loan bonds, one taking as much
as $2,500,000 worth of the govern
ment bonds. In order to pay these
subscriptions the companies must
withdraw their surplus cash from the
banks.
Financial agents of the large COM
panies contend that a large per cent
of the private investors have already
taken as many liberty bonds as their
resources permit and the purchase of
the third issue will principally fall
upon the large companies of the coun-
try.
Another reason for the canceling of
all farm land loans by the insurance
