GRANDMoTHERs IDEAS SANCTIONED.

1t is a shocking and an amazing thing, but
here comes a New Orleans doctor-a child spe-
ciaist in fact-With the admission that babies
need certain amount of petting. "The exercises
and stimulus he says, "are heathful."
That is such od-fashioned doctrine, and CO.
incdes so exactly with what every grandmother
knows that nobody would have dreamed it could
possible come from modern doctor. In recent
years mothers have become accustomed to bring
ing up their babies according to "The Book. And
THE Book" was always severely Spartan in its
rules.
The baby must be fed on schedule time If
he was so unlucky as to have to resort to BOTTLE
the milk must be modified by formula; just so
much milk and so much cream and so much steri-
lized water and so much lime water, brought to
a certain temperature for just so long. Between
feelings he must be left alone in his bed-not in
a cradle, horrors, no with no one to disturb
him. If he should set up wall, and grandmother
should start to take him up to comfort him, she
was to be gently but firmly reminded that the
child was not to be spoiled" that crying was
good exercise for the lungs, and that when he had
exercised his lungs sufficiently he would stop
crying and go to sleep. There was to be no kiss
ing and no petting. AT the regular hour he was
to be put in bed the light turned out and the door
closed. Nobody was to think of rocking him or
humoring him in any way.
Many grandmother has rebeed against
the modern mechanlcal rules Tor child rearing.
Many young mother has been told by her moth
er or her mother-in-law that she and her husband
were petted and kissed and rocked when they were
babies, and that it didn't do any harm. But gen.
orally the teachings of "The Book" have prevail
ed, and grandmother has been told that she didn't
know the real modern method of bringing up
babies.
And now comes the admission that a baby is
not as well off in hospital, where the mechan-
cal methods dominate, in the home, where a
certain amount of cuddhng goes on. Not too
much you understand but just limited amount.
Even that is tremendous concession.
Grandmother always knew that sooner or
later she would be vndicated.
George Washington. Thomas jefferson, Rob
ert f. Lee, Woodrow Wilson and other great men
were rocked to sleep by their mothers and grand
mothers If their brains were "added" by the
movement of their cradles, it would be we'll if
more babies brains were "addled" at the present
time.

COLUMBUS CENTENNIAL

Everything in regard to the big
Centennial and Homecoming week
at my home town, Columbus, Miss,
scheduled for October 1922, is bomo-
ing. At least it was when | left
home a short time ago to take lit
tie vacation in order to be able to
do the tremendous amount of work
which must be done before the Cen
tennial opens" said Mr. r. f. John
ston, chairman of the Columbus, Miss,
Centennial and Home Coming week,
who was a visitor for a few hours
to Birmingham en- route home from
Virginia and other points, where he
has spent the past two weeks.
81 have never seen anything like
the interest that people are showing
in the Columbus Centennial" Mr..
Johnston continued. "Not only in
Columbus proper, but all over the
South. Everywhere | have been peo-
pie have inquired all about our plans
and l am really quite happy over
the interest and cooperation which
is being shown
"There are so many ex-Columbus
people who live in Birmingham and
whom we want to have with us dur
ing the Centennial that I'd like to
pay a personal visit to and extend
an invitation, but that being impos-
sible the invitation must be consid-
cred already extended. From the
Birmingham Age-Herald.

TO VOTE TAX
LEVY SEPT. 28TH
School Districts Outside of Columbus
Separate School District to Vote
Additional Tax of One Mill.

One week from today. Wednesday
September 2Sth, the people who are
qualified electors in the school dis
tr;cts outside of the Columbus Sepa-
rate School District will be called
upon to decide by ballot whether or
not they desire to tax themselves an
additional mill to insure full-length
school terms for their respective dis
trlcts. From what we could learn by
taking with men from the country,
we have formed the opinion that the
vote will be favorable to the addition
al levy. The one mill tax will in
crease the tax burden only one dollar
on thousand dollars, and the mat
ter of the education of the boys and
girls is of too great importance to let
few paltry dollars interfere with
something that will affect the entire
future Of hundreds Of bright young
Scutherners.
1t has been estimated that the ad-
ditional levy of one mill will produce
revenue amounting to approximately
$1,000. After this levy has been
made, the state will give the dis
tricts $1,000 more. This will enable
the country schools to continue for
the number of months they have here
tofore been conducted.
1t costs the county about five thous-
and dollars a month to maintain the
schools outside of Columbus. A sharp
reduction in the enumeration of edu-
cable children brought about a cor
responding reduction in the money
received from the state. The make
up the deficiency it is proposed to
vote an additional tax levy of one
mill.
While it ts generally understood
that the voters in the country are in
favor of the levy, they having petit
toned the Board of Supervisors to
call the election, it would be well for
all friends of the schools to see to it
that every voter who favors the pro-
position is reminded of the fact that
next Wednesday is election day.

RATES
FOR CENTENNIAL
Southern Railway Makes Con.
cessiOn in Rates in Interest
of Ome-COming Here.

rates Of one and half fare for the
Under date Of September 18th, the
Southern Railway announces reduced
round trip for the Columbus Centen-
rial and Home Coming from all sta
tions on their lines in Alabama, also
from Memphis to Chattanooga via
Corintb and all intermediate points;
also from Chattanooga and interme-
ldiate points on A. G. S. RR., via
Birmingham; also from Atlanta and
intermediate points. Date of sale,
October 10th, 18th and 18th, with a
final return limit of October 23rd.
The M. & o. RR. and the C. e. G.
RR. have already announced the
same rates as the above on all their
lines
Inasmuch as railroad companies do
not grant a reduction in rates unless
justified by the Importance of an
event, it may be taken as conclusive
that the above named railroads re-
gard our Centennial and Home Coming
as an occasion of widespread inter-
est and great merit.
The granting of reductions in rates
is usually the occasion for consider
able advertising on the part of the
railroads, and it is safe to assume
that the Centennial will be advertis-
ed by posters at all stations and by
newspaper publicity. The Centennial
will serve to put our beautiful city
on the map in larger letters than
have been used heretofore.
