If you had your choice, would you rather be a pig or baby? To be a pig in the United States is to be lucky Last year the United States govern Inent spent $47,O00. 900 to reimburse farmers for avoidable losses of cattle, corn and hogs. Not one cent was spent for babies.
 It is well enough when the baby happens to be one of the fortunate ones whose coming is heralded by the family and relatives, and at whose tage of the best medical advice, and the most careful training for the new duties.
 But what about the millions of babies whose advent into the world is looked upon by the parents in the nature of a calamity, and what about. the thou .sands of babies whose coming means the stamping of the brand of shame on the young mother instead of the glorification of motherhood? These are the babies that the Salvation Army is saving, and saving the mothers at the same time also.
 Last year in the 12 Salvation Army rescue and maternity homes in the western part of the Un:reG States no less than 105S babies were born. What will become of these babies and their mothers? This is the problem that the Salvation Army is being called upon to solve.

Where the Peoule
 May Have a Hearing
Some SuaGestions

Editor Republican:
 Engineer HitchcOckS article con- corning the garbage situation is a well advised one, but there is another side of the story, and he is in position to apply the necessary remedy. Recent ly I have seen garbage lay as long as, a week before any attempt was made. to collect it; for awhile We had eX- celIent service, but lately it has been extremely rotten. Swat the flies. yes, I believe we should take every precau- tion to prevent the breeding of flies as it is a grave menace to our beauti- full city. When the taxpayers go to the expense of providing the regulation receptacles for caring for the garbage. the city officials should see ~that they are protected. The collectors in mak- ing their rounds do not exercise any care in handling these cans; they never think of standing them up or placing them in the position or place where they found them and as for replacing the covers, why that would be pre- posterous and foreign to the idea of their duties. Let the city officials get busy and do their part and I am firm ly convinced they will receive the hearty cooperation of the citizens.
 Our streets should be thoroughly flushed at least once a week and more especially the business section. I am surprised that the business men of the
