Today's Talk
A BABY IN A WINDOW.
BY George Matthew Adams

had been riding all day in a train.
l had been looking for hours into the
lace of fields, trees, factories, stumps,
linen behind ploughs, and other things
common to the eyes of a window
watcher
But as the train slowed into a small
town, a view caught MY sight that
stamped itself upon my mind and
brought up whole volumes of specula-
ton. | saw a man, rough in appear
ance. with his sleeves rolled up,
holding little baby tightly in his
arms.
Raphael never painted picture
more beautiful than that in the window
frame.
1t is possible for that baby to be-
come President of the United States!
Nearly fifty other babies who have
been held in windows, have become
that But more likely that baby will
grow up and become part of the
millions who make up all that is good
and bad in the world. We are fervent-
ly hoping that it will form it's way
toward all that is good.
The man or woman who doesn't feel
the pull of a baby's smile, isn't worth
being part of space or time.
It's the baby that we keep carrying
around in our hearts till the end of the
journey, that keeps us human, and
kind. and generous, and strong.
If that man had been holding bas-
ket of stocks, or bonds, or gold eggs. /
would have had a lot of pity for him.
But he held baby! And SO l loved
him-and, without his knowing it, I
placed him among the great of the
earth.
Always be glad when you see baby
in a window-or anywhere else!

4 SUBSCRIBER 70 The Evening Herald who is q booster
for drainage called yesterday 70 say that he had been
reading all the articles and speeches which have been
printed in advocacy Of drainage. He said he heartily agreed
with all that has been said and thought the majority Of
persons Of English-speaking acquaintance did, but that what
was needed now was a series of mass meetings at which the
Spanishepeaking people could be told Of the advantages Of
drainage. They do not understand the proposition and It
should be thoroughly explained TO them, he said. He de-
clared he had converted several of the native people TO the
proposition and thought a big majority could be lined up for
drainage TIA little more effort is made 10 show them exactly
what Il viii do for them. The suggestion is a good one. The
time is now at hand when speakers should be sent out into
the rural districts TO address mass meetings and get all the
people in the valley behind the proposition.
