HINTS FOR W. S. S. CAMPAIGN
Worker Gives Suggestion to Make
Pledge Week Success.

Minnesota can exceed her quota Of
$47,0O0,000 in the War Stamp Pledge
Week drive beginning Thursday,
June 6 by observing the following
hints, said prominent worker:
Aiding the w. S. S. campaign is
giving help to the Allied cause and
to U. S. soldiers;
Buying stamps is mailing a plank
in the nations ultimate victory over
the enemy;
Pledging purchases to be made
throughout the year means support
for those engaged in forever putting
down regime that glories in the
murder Of women, children and other
civilians;
Creating interest on the part OF
others to buy w. s. s. is helping to
build monuments for those heroes

Director D. 8. Culver Of the Mime
sofa War Savings Committee today
set aside the week starting June
9Th and ending on June 18th,
as Minnesota pledge week
for the purchase of war savings
stamps. In making the announce
ment, he evinced confidence that the
loyalty Of people in this state will be
manifested by pledging themselves ID
make purchases during the balance
Of this year which will result in over
subscribing the states quota of $47,-
100000.
All county chairmen are now pre-
pairing for the drive that will soon
start. In messages sent from state
headquarters in the Metropolitan
bank building, Minneapolis, a few
days ago. sub-chairmen were asked
the probabilities of their respective
counties going over tho top in the
coming drive. Practically all replied
that they expected to exceed tho
amounts allotted to their counties.
During Pledge wee4 ell citizens in
Minnesota will be asked to pledge the
purchase Of War SAVINGS Stamps dur

Vice Director J. H. Meyering, head
ing the sales forces, said the purpose
Of the campaign is not solely to ask
immediate cash purchases. On the
contrary, he explained, the pledges to

will probably be on a monthly basis

Questions and Answers.

Boy and Girl Love.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
am girl sixteen years old, and
am in love with a boy seventeen
years old. We both work in the
same office. and he is always telling
me Of his love for me. and love
him dearly. Now, what l want to
know is this: Will it be considered
al right to give him a present at
Christmas. end II so. what shall I
give him? OF course. it is rather
early to think about Christmas
but / want to ask your advice.
just know he will give me somc-
thing. BROWN EYES.
You and your boy lover should,
OF course, both be in school, and
you are much too young for love
affairs. But as you developed this
affection without asking grown
up advice, a thing which has often
happened before. | will admit that
/ see no harm in your giving your
friend a present at Christmas.
How about a book on a popular
science, something about animals,
or electricity, or mechanics? Or
would you like to make him some
thing. such as a knitted silk
cravBt? hope you wont give
him jewelry.

can also be determined.
So II an old record says that AZ
the time Of q certain memorable
event, In q certain place, there vas
q miraculous darkness, at a cef-
tain hour OF the day, Without spe-
cially mentioning the sun, and II
astronomicaf calculations snow
that at that place and hour a total
eclipse Of the sun occurred 30
many years, or thousands Of years,
ago the chances are very great
that this coincidence Is no mere
accident, but q true determination
OF the date Of the event in ques-
ton. Too often, however, the rec
ords fail to give sufficient clues as
to time and place to make identi-
fication possible.
Some Old.Timers.
The earliest eclipse certainly
identified BY means OF contempt
rary records is, I believe, that
which occurred at Babylon 1910
years before the Christian era
The next notable one was record
ed at NineVeh on Assyrian tablets
7e3 years B. c. Modern eomputa-
lions show that the path Of the
shadow on that occasion ran At
least one hundred miles north Of
the city Of NineVeh. Then comes
the most celebrated Of all, the
Eclipse Of Thales," so-called be-
cause that famous Greek philoso-
pher predicted its occurrence, and
when II did occur, on the 18th Of
May, SIS B. C., It put an end to 9
great battle that was being fought
by the Modes and the Lydians, and
permanently terminated the war
between them. Thales' prediction
Of this eclipse was regarded BY his
contemporaries with both admira-
ton and amazement, and Il has
been said that the worldwide fame
which he enjoyed in his day was
due to this more than to anything
else that he did.
Not only do astronomical calcu-
lations Of eclipses serve to AZ his
torical dates, but, in return, the
historical records are Of use In
verifying the correctness Of the
astronomical data concerning the
motions Of the moon. Where the
point Of observation Of the ancient
eclipse can be definitely fixed from
the records, . test is thereby Of
fered OF the accuracy Of the calcu-
lations which locate the path Of
the eclipse shadow. But II the
point OF observation is uncertain.
the test fails. Thus. as astrono-
mers know, the so-called eclipse OF
Agathocles, August II, $40 B. c..
would possess exceptional value
for them but for the fact that
Agathocles, who observed the
eclipse, was at sea in the Mediter-
ranean, and his exact location Is
unknown.

Fairfax Writes Problems Pitfalls of the War Workers
Especially for Washington Women

n ABLY gardens have so far
X blossomed only here and
- there. But 1 believe that in
ten years from now cities and
towns will be abloom with them.
They are going to do away with
nursemaids, and also with the
overworking Of older sisters. They
are going to simplify life enor-
mously for distracted mothers.
Yet their real object is quite diff
ferent from any Of these.
Baby gardens are planned to
provide the best possible condi-
tons under which little children
Of from one to three years old can
be happy and comfortable and de-
velop naturally in health, strength
and intelligence.
Some mothers won't like this
idea-until they really understand
it. They will say that they prefer
to take care Of their own babies,
thank you, and that they have no
intention OF allowing them to be
out of sight and reach for an en-
tire day at a time. What in the
, world did they have babies for, il
they are going to deprive them
selves of the opportunity to love
them as much as they like?
How to Convince Mothers.
Perhaps the best way to con-
vince a mother who talks dixie this
is to show her a baby garden in
actual operation.
A couple of large, sunny rooms
is the indispensable setting, sup
plemented, OF course, by bathroom,
kitchen, sleeping porch and out
door playground. Three persons
at least will be in charge-a spe-
cially educated woman who loves
and understands babies, a trained
nurse and scientific cook who
knows how to prepare food for
young children.
In this environment there may
be as many as a dozen babies.
Somebody will have brought them
from their homes in the morning
and somebody will come to fetch
them at night. During this time
they will be fed properly, they will
take long maps on the sleeping
porch and they will be encouraged
to play as much as they like, out
doors or in, according to the
weather, and either alone or with
each other. Children who wish to
be alone are given a floor space
set apart BY screens.
Best of all, they don't come into
collision with grown-up life and
grown-plans and grown-up fur
niture-things for which they
are perhaps punished at home.
Comfort For the Very Young.
Nothing OF this sort can hap
pen, you see, because there are
absolutely no grown-up furnish
ings in a baby garden, no up
holstery, no bric-a-brac, none Of
the fragile things that adults are
always so frantically engaged in
protecting. Neither are any of the
highly dangerous objects that ba-
bies often encounter in a kitchen
The Washington times., 1918-10-12

your particular child nodded and
trained?
It's probably true that a mother
who can give her baby all he needs
at home doesn't need to send him
to baby garden: But how many
can?
Home Conditions.
The mother who employs a
nurse, or that underlined and totally
unequipped creature called a
nursemaid, for her babies surely
isn't doing much for them. A
nurse can keep children clean and
take them on more or less melan-
choly little walks outdoors, but
only a supernurse is At to be en-
trusted with all the questions of
their health, happiness, and gen
eral training.
The mother who cannot afford to
hire anv relief for herself, and who
has to combine baby-tendinV with
cooking, dishwashing, sweeping,
sewing, and the personal demands
made by her husband and older
children, may love her baby very
much, it is true. She may cuddle
him passionately whenever she has
time AID she may love to feel him
clinging to her skirts and delight
in the sound Of his questioning,
trustful little voice.
But isn't he missing a great
many things that baby garden
could do for him?
There is a mother now and then
who combines in herself all the ele-
ments of the best baby garden,
who in herself is archine tree
and streaming sunshine and run
ming brook and blooming rose. II
mothers of this bountiful sort
would only start and manage baby
gardens for the help of all the
other mothers of the world!
The Washington times., 1918-10-12
TODAY'S TOPIC
BABY GARDENS

"make" things is as far as posi-
bic encouraged - whether with
blocks or clay or pencil. And
even the tiniest ones learn to run
and jump and climb.
. A baby who is well and interest
ed and who isn't slapped and
scolded doesn't whine or cry. So
these are happy babies.
Start Your Own Baby Garden.
A mother might admit that all
these conditions, were desirable
and yet feel that the whole ques-
ton was settled by the fact that
no baby garden fiourished within
reach Of her own family.
But it is perfectly easy, if not
for one mother, then for half
dozen neighboring mothers, to
start their own baby garden. 1t
will be immensely interesting to
work out the details of it them
selves. And they will learn a
great deal while they are doing it.
In any case, don't dismiss this
idea as a mere fad or "frill." Did
you know that it is a great deal
more important to provide the
right conditions for children who
are too young to go to school than
for the older ones9 did VOL, know
that the time between nursing and
school age is really the critical
period of his ife7 That if you

with his health and education, you
ought to do it then, even though
he hasn't reached the reading,

These years make up the most
impressionable period in the life
of a human being. In what way
are you going to choose to have
