SAYS TEACHERS WAGES DIS
GRACE THE NATION.

Low wages for teachers were
characterized "as the greatest dis
grace which America bears and the
deepest insult offered to any child
anywhere" by John ]. Tigert, United
States Commissioner of Education
in addressing the New England Vo-
cational Guidance Association a:
Harvard University.
He added that "unless the Amer
lean people are willing to work out
some kind of scheme to secure suffi-
Gent revenue to pay our men and
women teachers at least as much as
they do delivery boys, laborers or
scavengers none need be surprised
If the temple of freedom is destroy
ed by babel of ignorance"
He said the average adult Amer
lean was possessed only of a sixth
grade education.

THE AMERICANP PRESS ASSOClATlON
JOCKEYING FOR POLITICAL
ADVANTAGE.

With the date for the State pri-
maries virtually settled for Septem-
Der the question of dates for the
State conventions of the Republican
and Democratic parties is next to be
determined. Right here is where
some high-class maneuvering is gen
orally exhibited, says the Baltimore
American. For each party prefers
to await the declarations of the
other, so that it may properly per-
form it's function of viewing with
alarm" the manifest and multitud-
nous iniquities of the enemy's plat
form.
Usually, in Maryland, the Repub-
licans have managed to keep their
convention date undetermined until
the Democrats had firmly tied them
selves to date of their own. This
time the Democrats apparently have
decided to go along and have their
convention whenever they please for
the party which is in control OF most
State offices has it's work pretty well
cut out.
Preliminary forecasts indicate
that the program of the Reorganiza-
ton Commission (entirely Demo
cratic as to personneD will be the
piece de resistance of the political
menu which the Democratic conven.
ton will set before the voters of thu
State. Governor Richie so desires
though the work of the specia
committee has not yet been finished
and must yet be reviewed and ap
proved, possibly with alterations, b!
the executive committee and the
full body of the Reorganization
Commission. Whatever comes gu
of the efforts of the reorganizer'
will be at least Governor Ritchie''
Offering for the approval of Mary
land Democracy.
Not that there will be no opposi
tion-already there are Questionin;
murmurs among the faithful. These
are seriously disturbed at tn
thought that good party men-ant
women-are likely to be thrown GU
of Jobs as a result of the enthusiasm
of the Governor for a program o
economy, even though it canno
possibly be put into full effect TO
couple of years or so. And
though there may be no great out
cry, lest the Republicans take to-
much comfort from the domestic
troubles of the Democrats, Their
will be plenty of button-holing ant
whispering before the reorganiza
tion program comes before the con
vention.

4.-what To Observe in a Baby.

4.-What To Observe in Baby.
CRYING. Babies need a certain
amount of crying to develop their
lungs. When children cry for
everything they want, it is the result
of faulty training. If baby is cross
or fretful and cries great deal of
the time, it does not mean rleces-
sarily that he is ill, but there is
something wrong with him. Learn
what he is trying to tell you by cry
ing
HUNGER CRY.-A low whimper-
ing cry sometimes accompanied by
sucking the fingers or the lips. If
the meal is not forthcoming il, may
change to lusty scream. Babies
are as likely to cry from indigestion
caused by overlooking as from hun
ger.
FRETFUL CRYING. The baby is
sleepy or uncomfortable. He may
be too warm or tired of being laid
in one position. A tepid sponge
bath and a gentle rub or a change OF
clothing and taking him out will
prove very restful and comforting
If the crying continues, consult the
doctor. The child may be ill.
CRY OF collie OR PAIN. A
lusty cry sometimes rising to a
shrek, with tears in the eyes. In
collie or abdominal pain, the knees
are drawn up and the fists are
clenched. A tight fist is usually
an indication of pain. If the crying
increases with moving of an arm OIL
leg when placing the child in Ger
tain position, he may have a broken
bone or <other damage calling fol-
the attention of a physician.
SICK CRY. The very sick baby
does not cry hard. There is low
moaning or wall, with sometimes q
turn of the head from side to side
SICK BABY. Learn to recognize
any change from the normal. I'm.
usual flushing or pallor of the face
sleeplessness, lack of energy, loss OF
appetite, profuse sweating, especial
ly of the head. peevishness, vomit
ing or diarrhoea, give warning thai
something is wrong. Find out
what and why.
