that fabric has the advantage of pro-
tecting from the cold, and yet carry
ing off the body p~erspiration in such
a way that in hotter weather the
baby is not too warm.
A knitted part-wool band (after
the tight binder is discarded at one
month or six weeks)-diaper, skirt,

baby. After three months during
the day nothing but the band, shirt

clothes can be added as the tempera-

Babies are better off when they
can have free use of their limbs, and
to weigh them down with clothes is
to hamper their development. Babies
have a good circulation and for this
reason are more easily chilled, as well
as more easily overheated. If the
child perspires one car be sure he is
dressed too warmly. If he has warm
feet and hands, no matter how few
his clothes, one can be sure that he
is warn enough for comfort, and
warm enough to keep from catching
cold.

BE A GOOD SPORT

Sportsmanship is the king of qualities. It is the mark Of
the blue ribbon. The sign of the thoroughbred.
heard the criticism once that the reason women were less
fair in their judgments and more given to petty Jealousles
was because they hadn't grown up playing baseball. They had
not been taught to play the game. There is something In 1t.
Think it over.
Sportsmanship is demanded just as much in the business
world as on the tennis court or the golf course.
The women today who are winning their way in the bust
ness world, and their number is constantly increasing, are the
good sports.
No two of us were ever born with the same amount or
kind of brains. Use your own. Don't stand around with a
crouch on because the girl next to you is a winner. If you
can't win in one thing try another.
Babe Ruth would now be lost in obscurity if he had wasted
his time in vain regrets over not being able to give Jack
Dempsey a knockout, when he can hit a baseball better than
anyone.
Find your game and play it. Don't be afraid of taking a
beating now and then. Be game. Be a good loser. Put out
your hand to the winner and smile. There is plenty of work
that needs to be done well.
You will never climb to the top by whining, fault-fnding,
envying and singing mud. Play the game and play it fair.
Be a good sport. Smile You'll be a winner every time when
you do.

Bare Hands Across the Sea

What disturbing news the cables
bring us from Europe at times!
Here's a dispatch that brings tears
to our eyes and sorrow to our more
or less impressionable heart,
"By failing to wear vests and
gloves, men tourists are said to be
corrupting masculine styles in Paris.
They go about the city with bare
hands, floating ties and coats" so
reads the complaint.
Isn't that just like EN-?

There's probably nothing the mat
ter with what he has on except that
1t needs pressing: that a freshly
~laundered shirt wouldn't dim the
splendor Of the occasion, and that

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Sixteen agencies exist today to
perform the work necessary for the
advancement of our agricultural in
dustry. These could be more effici-
emily combined into seven divisions,
under the Commissioner of Agricul-
ture.
The seven proposed divisions of
this department would be as follows:
Division Of Information and Statis-
tics; Division of Animal Inspection:
Division of Insect and Plant Disease
Control; Division of Foods, Drugs,
and Diaries; Division of Marketing;
Division of Fish and Game; and Di-
vision of State Fair.
Every functi of the existing
agencies would thus be reformed
properly, with a minimum of waste
in salaries, and without cumbersome.
disjointed methods.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1923-03-22

The proposed consolidation in this
department is expected to save
$191, ,239.0O yearly.
Similarly, in the proposed Depart
ment of Mines, five agencies now ac-
tive in work for the state would be
consolidated and reorganized with
but three departments; Metal Min
ing, Coal Mining, and Oil Shale In
vestigation. And, since the public
receives no benefit from the use of
the Metal Mining Fund, now collect
ed by the state, it is proposed to
abolish this useless agency.
An estimated saving of S26, ,94S.0
would be made by this reorganization.

Code of the State of Colorado, written
