of teaching the child to finish his
meal at once and not dwaddle over a
bottle while the milk gets cold. From
the cup feelings it is also easier to
teach the child to take other food
when he is old enough. The cup is
easier to care for than a nipple and

give the baby a bottle the yOunEster
should be taught to finish it's bottle
and not play with it. And no sucking

To give a baby a rubber pacifier is
deliberately hurting it. A pacifier
causes mouth breathing and that

Why does the Salvation Army ap
peal to emotional excitement instead
of calm reasoning in advancing the
claims Of religion?
Answer-Because the emotions are
the chief sources of religious change
and betterment. Do you suppose this
organization, which has won universal
approval for it's mission, could nave
been produced by science, philosophy
or any other pursuit dependent upon
calm reasoning?
STUDY the almy's beginnings, its
hardships, its prosecutions, ats vic
tories, it's worldwide spread in the
last so years. You will be convinced,
l think, that it's founder, Gen. William
Booth; his greatly gifted wife, kath-
crime Booth; their son, the present
general; his sister, our own Command
er Booth, and all those who aid them
have rightly gauged the deepest needs
of the sinful, the outcast, the sad and
the poverty stricken. Modern Chris
tianity has no finer religious records
than those made by the Salvation
Army. It's seeming extravaganza

of many academic circles which main

twepties l have a college education
which has resulted in giving me
rather high ideals. I have Stunned
society to a very great extent, espe-
cially that of young women None
but the better type of girl appeals
to me. to which kind l myself do not
seem to appeal.
NY shyness is further accentuated
bv the fact that my hair is getting
very thin. l seem to be happy only
when in the forests of my native
State or on some long hike across the
countryside. My social awkwardness
is something that has given me the
utmost concern.
What would you advise me to do in
order to overcome the defects which
l have mentioned above?
Answer-The first thing to do is to
divert a considerable portion of your
attention from yourself to something
external At present you are too much
occupied with your own affairs and in
danger of becoming a superior person
of rather stodgy sort. This by way
Of diagnosis, not criticism. To be

everybody you meet. and you will find
that the humblest man or woman has
something to tell you which is bene-

One reason why you do not appeal
to the better type Of girl is not
because your hair Is getting thin, but
because you are in danger of being
bald headed inside; stupid, inert,
although so resolutely highbrow.

For Winter Geraniums,

If you would like your geraniums

growth is best for the cuttings. Pull

COMMISSION
PROMOTER DURING MEAN
TIME WILL PRESENT VIEWS
IN HEAVYWEIGHT ACTIVE
TIES

NEW YORK, June 16-Another
week has been given Tex Richard
by the New York State Athletic
Commission to present his views
of the heavyweight pugilistic stu
a,ion, and a very busy champion
n the light heavyweight division
has signed to meet his most for
midabie foe on July Is.
Paul Berlenbach's willingness to
face Jack Delaney at Ebbeats Field
a month hence, undoubtedly is the
outstanding factor in the Hhg
situation, for Delaney is a man
who has knocked out two of the
present champions - BeTlenbach
and Tiger Flowers, of the middle
weight class. Many regard the
French Canadian as the ''uncrown-
ed champion"
This test with Berlenbach will
''tell the story" for it is the rub
Der match. In their first meeting,
Delaney fiattened the present
champion in four rounds. while
last winter Berlenbach won b.
round decision.
The state commission has let it
be known that the license board
will vote with it on the matter of
Dempsey-Wills contest, with
Richard expected TO present plans
for a Dempsey-Tunney bout.
A statement issued by Chairman
Farley of the Commission calls for
fair play, and reminds that Theo-
dore Roosevelt received Booker T.
Washington at the White House.
