and mothers classes in food prepar-
alton, household and baby hygiene
are used to spread child knowledge.
Occasionally baby and child con-
tests for prizes are held, such as the
one instituted by the city milk sta
tions during the recent milk exposi-
tion week. The standard of per-
fection in this contest was 1000
points, and two of the New York
Diet Kitchen Association babies took
prizes as 1000 points perfect.
Naturally, the stations are all in
crowded districts, but their atmos-
phere varies greatly with the en-
virons. Down in Mott Street almost
all of the applicants are Italians,
though occasionally an almond-eyed,
stolid, Oriental doll-baby adds a
picturesque touch. This is the dis
trict of little mothers"; many of
these hardly-more-th baby sisters

hips in the good old Italian wav)
come for the milk before school
time. The matron is Italian and for
the benefit Of visitor she asked one
such "little mother" why she did not
leave the baby at home. She an
swered: "He cry for me. | fix his
milk and get him to sleep, then he

tots, bred to motherliness, make pitt
fully early marriages and still look
like children when they are mothers
themselves.

Pay for a
Patriotic Piglet

The Farm and Garden Association
is urging, through it's members
community pigs and club pigs; it is
authorizing these groups to issue
"Piglet bond" patriotic piglet
bonds" might make them perhaps
bit more fetching.
In view of the still serious food
shortage, the plan of the association
is to put real pork in the pork bar

G. S. Bangs Steward, chairman of
the land service committee and dele
gate for agriculture to the peace
conference, will make 100 pounds
of pork. If seventy towns in each
state should raise one 300-pound
hog, this would mean an increase
of 1,008,000 pounds of pork pro-
duced from what is now thrown
away as waste.
The plan is as follows. 1t sounds
a little like a genealogical chapter
of Genesis: State chairmen appoint
county chairmen, county chairmen
appoint town and village chairmen,
town and village chairmen appoint
committees. This committee buys a
hopeful young porker more than
three months old, weighs him, finds
patriotic person who will arrange
decent and suitable place for his
worthiness to live, either in the vii
lage or on its outskirts. His

The Bright
Brown Babies

There's a "black belt" station
where the bright brown babies are
almost exclusively the callers. Col
ored babies, who are mostly breast
fed, are an exceptionally fine lot
when very young, but statistics show
that they tend to develop diseases
due to wrong feeding when they
reach the runabout age. Hygienic
education of the mother is very
essential in this race because they
have so lately come from a country
where fresh milk was a matter of
course that they seldom realize the
dire effects of weaving with patent
foods or ordinary ''bulk" milk. For
this same reason they find it hard to
adjust themselves to city conditions
of housing and the cold climate and
much home supervision is essential
to their community wellbeing
They are especially subject to
tubercular troubles. 1t is hard to
make them realize how essential
proper food is to the child. A

months-old baby propped up at the

Joe was one of the four White Sox

on the Cinci team to escape without
being charged with a bout. Leibold

field position for the Sox, played err

putouts without muff while they
were collecting only 10 putous.

PRINCETON NAY Be

College Football Championship
Now in Dopester's Eye
Roper Has Fine Machine-Is
seth Year for Princeton.

Now that the football season is on,
westerners are watching not only the
college teams Of coast and mountain
sections, but the big eastern elevens.
For an interest akin N that which at
tends the world series in baseball is
held by the New Year championship
game between East AMI West to be
played on the coast.
First attention is demanded by the
"big three" Princeton. Harvard and
Yale All have had their gridiron
warriors at work for nearly month
and the early practice games have
started the line of doIe which serves
to balance the merits of the schools
until the more important part of the
schedule is reached.
At Princeton. William H. Roper is
head coach, with Keene Fitzpatrick.
the trainer, as right hand man. Harold
BALM, who was cartain of the team
IN 1914. is the only~other coach. Coach
ing staffs as large as the teams them
selves have lost favor somewhat this
year, especially at Princeton.
But this trio is a good one and knows
Princetons strength and prospects.
Roper was in charge in 1906. 1907 and
19HS, and helped out now and then
with the instruction last year. but was

has lectured his team in the open with
q crowd of spectators, who shared in
dcvouring the blackboard work No
executive session" has been held up
To the time of the contest with Ro-
chester this coming Saturday, at any
rate.
In personnel Princeton has, like all
colleges, a skeleton of former veterans
who have returned from the army. In
addition she has q quartet or more of
rev stars in prospect who were de-
veloped in 1913 under Fitzpa trick The

training last year with what material
could be found among the 700 or more
undergraduates who remained In
school and In the :. A. r. c.. and may
reap this year the benefit of her ac-
tivity over her chief rivals.
If Princeton does win out in the
East and come to the Pacific coast for
the New Year game, it is probable
that special semi-centennial cee-
bration will be held. Fer it was just
30 years ago that Princeton and Rut-
gers played the first game of collie
giate football.

To my mind the final moment in
the recent world series stands out as
the most dramatic one in the whole
classic.

the ninth.
The score 10 to in favor of the
Reds. The series in their grasp.
Two down.
Murphy on third and Eddie Collins
on second.
Joe Jackson at bat
Hold Eller winding up-with the
smile of victory on his face
And Jackson waiting grimly for the
next offering.
The chances were thousand to one
against the Sox winning. Jackson had
grabbed two hits that day and 500 fans
in thousand said he had got them all
out Of his system.
But Jackson stood up to the plate.
His left heel paved a hole in the sand
as 1t always does. A home-run clout-
a ghost of a show-nothing more. And
Joe was after that clout.
He put his heart and soul into the
next swing, but he hit bit over the
center of the ball and 1t bounded to
Morrie Rath for an easy assistant
