WEEKLY BOOK REVIEW
Wars Stink-Pots Pictured In No More Parades'

But this is no handicap, because
the style of Ford enables him to
project successfully the mental re-
action of his characters.
1 assure you that If you are weak
hearted and hesitate to become ac.
quainted with war as it exists in
foot and in the brain box of fight
ingemen, then have nothing to do
with mo More Parades."
On the other hand, if you read
books a good deal like going to the
theater, then you will welcome an
opportunity to study this new Ford
novel.
Here is an extraordinary book,
vital, powerful and at times over
whelming in it's dramatic action.
War with all OF it's beastly attributes
come to you in this story.
The author is not Intentionally
dirty. He knows war and he rea-
Lies the mental and passionate
flights of fighting men. Here is
not libel, as 1 see it, but an hon
est attempt to picture the mental
side of the war game.
mo More Parades" is for the
adult, mature mind-the mind
which is capable Of looking fact
square in the face.
The more that 1 consider this
book the more convinced 1 am that
we have one of the outstanding
dramatic works of modern fiction.
Those who desire honest and sin.

Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Here are some questions which are
perplexing very new. young mother
and no doubt they have been asked by
numerous mothers before her and will
be again in the future. It's sometimes
SO hard to fit the new life into the old
one and do justice to parents ard
baby. Says this little mother;
should a month-old baby have
callers in it's bedroom after its Z
o'clock feeding in the evening, when
it is wide awake?
can he be talked to too much when
he is awake?
should he be taken up every time
he cries?
should he have water between
feelings and If so. how much
To the first, emphatically no. not
even the babys own father. When a
baby is put into his bedroom for the
night he should he left alone until he
goes to sleep. In this way he comes
to understand very early in his exist
ence that this is sleepy time and
nothing else but. 1t is SO easy when
a baby Is new and n novelty in The
household to want TO show him eff.
but the baby's show-of time. if there
is such a thing. should coma between
the hours Of and 5, and If his inter-
ested relatives and friends want to
see him that IS the time to call. The
baby's bedtime should be as fixed and
sacred as the clock. That is the one
and only way to establish Ialua BILE
regularity.
Babies should be talked to when
they are awake, but that doesn't nlea n
