ARRANGEMENT is of first i'm
cJL portance. 1t is the genius and
the guiding power. The policies of an
organization as laid down by the men in
control are regarded as the foundation
of all successful business enterprises.
The strength of an organization can
be readily estimated BY the integrity and
responsibility of its management.
In looking over the Officials and d.
rectors of company it is not difficult
to determine their standing in the business
world. A company is especially secure
if its management has been successfully
guiding the destinies of business interests
uninterruptedly year in and year out. 1t
is then safe to say that such men have
been responsible for such institutions
growth and development.

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Wednesday, March 80.

Astrologers read tomorrow a rather
an uncertain day, since there are
planetary influences that tend to
thwart the completion Of plans.
Under this sway there may be de
ception and intrigue. 1t is not ia
vorable day to make investments.
The judgment should not be trusted
until the aspect changes, the seers
declare, for the planetary government
is supposed to make dishonesty and
Misrepresentation easy.
Women are well directed under this
rule, which makes for the most un-
selfish effort and the most efficient
service.
This is read as a lucky wedding day
making for mutual understanding and
real partnership.
Theaters are subject to the best pos
sible influences. and the rule indicates
that the public will more and more
support the spoken drama.
Art is to flourish in this country as
never before, and music is to receive
a great impetus.
A new patriotism is to awaken in
America. which is to make a test that
will solidify the Nation, the seers
prophesy.
Persons whose birth date 1t is may
have year of unusual experiences.
Children born on that day may have
a touch Of real genius. They may be
fanciful and should be wisely guarded

Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Before writing about treatments for
collie one feels impelled always to
sound this warning:
Is the baby suffering from collie or
just plain hunger? The actions of the
baby are much the same in both ca ses.
but the solution is reached by taking
into account the weight of the baby.
If the baby is making very poor
gain. say, only two or three ounces
weekly, is a poor sleeper, very consti-
pated and is continually whining and
crying and at some special hours cries
loud and long, this sounds much more
like hunger and collie.
But if your baby IL making an enOr-
NOUS gain weekly. to 10 ounces:
spits up lot between feelings, IL
restless and uncomfortable. and after
each feeding has "a spell of real pain,
this Is collie.
The first thing to he done is to
lengthen the time between feeding pc
RODS. A four-hour nursing period
makes less colicky babies than more
frequent nursing. Perhaps a table
spoonful Of quite hot boiled water be-
fore the nursing will help If the milk
is very rich, and certainly a table
spoonful of very hot water with pep
permint or fennel will help the real
attack.
When a baby has real collie his
hands and feet are cold and his small
stomach In hard and taut. This last
In caused by the offending gas, which
is in turn making the baby writhe
with pain. The object, then. is to
move this gas. Hot water. as said
before. will help the baby to belch
and relieve him somewhat. The fen
mel and peppermint are soothing addi-
tons to the water.
Give the baby a warm enema so
that the gas in the bowels will be car
ried off and relieve the intense pain.
Keep the baby warm by wrapping
in blankets, and after the enema and
the hot water have been administered
put "a small hot-water bottle on the
baby's stomach. There Is nothing like
hot water and heat to relieve pain.
When the attack is past the baby will
sleep well. Al the next feeding time
give water before nursing and, as has
been said before. lengthen the feeding
periods. This will remove the cause
for future attacks.

Sleeves Like Those of Days of 1865
BY MARY MARSHALL.

tight from shoulder to elbow and
from the elbow down consists of 4
fairly fun flounce. These sleeves
were really we'll suited to the mode of
1868, when frocks were closely fitted
from the neck to the waistline. with
full 1ouncing skirts below this line.
But they lend themselves just as well
to the silhouette of 1927.
One of the dressmakers has made
some. very ingenious sleeves of this
sort. The fiounce is set on an under
sleeve worn beneath the outside elbow
sleeve. When it is desirable to get
the frilling flounce out of the way the
undersleeve may he drawn up-and
with it goes the f1ounce.
Whether or not the f1ounce sleeve
of 1865 will amount to more than q
passing fancy. it is hard to say. hut
there is no longer room to question
the fact that the sleeve with orna-
mentation or elaboration below the
elbow is coming into prominence. So
called bishop sleeves are spoken of
frequently in accounts of the newest
clothes and there are little under
sleeves of pleated georgette or lace
or tucked muslin on some of the
Spring frocks.

Dressmakers nowadays find inspira-

period of costumery and amusingly
enough sometimes get most &C
Ceptahle idea from a period that to
the casual observer would seem 10
have nothing in common with the
present. So it is that one of the
French dressmakers has brought back
TO fashion sleeves of the vintage Of

moved from our own as the moon
