 child is born without habits, good or bad and it rests with the mother to teach him proper habits in regard to eating. sleeping. bathinP, and the taking of fresh air and ex- ercise. Good habits should be started during the early weeks of life In or- der to establish health and incidental ly to insure obedience and self control. A badly trained child Is us- ually the lack of backbone in the mother.
 Must Have Fresh Air
 baby must have fresh air. light and sunshine in order to grow, and should be encouraged to sleep all he can, but watch must be kept to see that he does not turn night into day. He should be trained to sleep at least six unbroken hours at night. Tho child should be allowed to sleep dur ing the morning hours but not in the late afternoon, because this will break his night rest.
 baby should be taught early -he right food habit by putting before him the proper food, at the proper time and see that he takes it. A bath every day IS necessary, at least until a child is trained in personal habits.

NET GAINS MADE
 DURING WEEKON
 COTTON MARKET
Active Buying in Spot Depart ment and Unfavorable Crop Reports Bring Much
 Higher Prices
By AssocIated Prena

New Orleans. May 2S.-Although something of reactionary tendency was shown by the cotton market in the early sessions of the week just ended, the later sessions brought pressure to buy, and strong advances to new high levels for the upward movement in prices which has been under way for some time past. Much of the buying was done on bulllsh an- ticipations regarding the first condi- tion report of the season from tho government, but some of it was done on continued unsatisfactory weather over the belt, and on a continued demand for spot cotton, which was met by increasing evidence of dimin- ishing supplies. Highest prices came on the closing session, when July touched 20 S9c and the list of active months was 55 to 96 points higher than the close of the preceding week. Last prices were at net gains of 41 to S3 points, with July at 20. 76c.
 July strongest
 July was, at aill times, the strong est month and there were occasions when 1t pulled the rest of the list up with it. Covering by the short in- terest was responsible for much of the pressure to buy July, and this covering was induced, to a great ex tent, by the growing strength of the statistical position. According to the weekly statement the visible supply of American cotton is now down to 2,943,1S4 bales against 4,2S0,497 a year ago. Stocks at the 30 counted in- terior towns have been reduced to 634,717 bales against 1.271,107 a year ago, and stocks at all ports amount to only s96,277 bales. against 1.5S2,- 196 year ago.
 While weather conditions over the belt were regarded as showing some improvement, they still were looked upon as being far from satisfactory. and crop reports were constant sup port to the market. The first condi- ton period of the season ended Thurs day, and expectations regarding it's percentage of condition run very low. Private bureau estimates Of condi- ton that attracted most attention ranged from 65 to CT per cent of norr nal, although there were reports of 6S and 69. and one as high as 7I.S. A great deal of discussion followed a bureau report of 65 for condition, which was accompanied by an esti- mate of per cent as the increase of the acreage. pointing to crop of 10,- 243,000 bales, according to the gov ernment formula

Individual towels and wash cloths should be used and the room in which the bath is given should have tenn perature of from 70 to 75 degrees, the bath water 100 degrees, gradually de- creasing to 90 degrees at the age of six months.
 Wnshing Outfit
 A simple washing outfit should be selected for the newborn infants clothing. with additional wraps. when he is aired indoors or taken out. The baby should be kept clean and spot lessly neat; frills will not make him any sweeter. Nature provides plenty of exercise for the baby In crying, kicking his legs, tossing his arms about, and in learning to crep. If these movements are not restricted by too tight clothing, swaddling or pin ned down in bed no other form Of exercise is needed in infancy.
 A mother should plan daily schedule for her baby. considering first what is best for him, and next what arrangement of hours fit in with her duties. It is not necessary or wise for whole household to re- volve around the baby. The first de cision to be made is whether the baby shall be fed at three or four hour interval, and how many feedinGs shall be given in 24 hours: next. at what hour the early morning feed ing shall be given.

To have a definite goal upward, to aim at success, but not as the world views 1t. and to have faith in the future was the admonition given graduates of the Birmingham South ern college by Rev. John W. Frazer, of Pensacola, himself an alumnus of this college, who preached the bac- calaureate sermon at the First Meth odist church Sunday morning to a large congregation. including the fac- ulty and senior class of the college.
 Rev. Frazer took his text from Philippians 3:i3-14, as follows: "Bresn- eren. I count not myself to have laid hold: lAut one thing I do. for getting the things which are behind and stretching forward to the things which are before, I press on toward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus"
 Cites PauI's Love
 "St Paul loved the church at Philippi perhaps as he. loved no other church and there is note of kindness in his letter in appreciation of their kindness. courtesy and hos pitality he had received" said Rev. Frazer, in part, "He is writing to people who are his best friends and so we may expect to find some secret In this letter we do not find in his other letters. And we do not have to search very close to find 1t.

Indianapolis, May 2S.-(Special)- Jimmy Murphy the Irish Flash, from Los Angeles. will have the pole at the start of the international 5oo-mile race to be held at the Indianapolis motor speedway next Tuesday. Tool ing his Murphy special at an average of 100.50 miles per hour for the 10 qualifying miles, he was the best of the 19 pilots who made the required speed on the opening day of the trials. Drivers qualifying from now on will fall in behind those who qualified the opening day.
 Little Harry Hartz. the toy driver, making his first start at Indianapolis, gave the big throng that saw the practice the thrill of the day when he broke the track record for single lap of the 2 1a mile oval for cars of 1S3 cubic inches piston displacement, averaging 102.65 miles per hour, shutting off on all the turns with his Dusenberg. His average for 10 miles, however, was 99.99 miles per hour and he will start beside Murphy. The third car in the first row will be Ralph DePalma's cream -colored Dusenberg. The best the darling of the speed fans could do was 99.55 miles per hour.

Birmingham babies will soon come into their own, as June ushers in what Is to be known as Baby Week." being sponsored by the Axis club, and the city board of health.
 During the six days of the cam paign. 14 centers will be established throughout the city, and every mother who has a baby is requested to visit the center nearest her home and have the baby examined, weighed and measured that she may ascertain the physical condition of her child and be given the opportunity of cor recting it's weak points.
