RoMPINC AROUND THE
RADIO DIALS
by GARDNER MACK.
ENGLISH SLAM 7
On CONGRESS
On A|R

Almost anything was available
IN fI,e IOud speakers on him who
tuned carefully last evening. There
was = BIT Of crashing noise now
and then, some fading and con.
siderable code interference. But
recentiOp. ON the whole, was clear
ana in good volume from all Sec
tions Of the continent.
How Congress looks through the
monocle of an English journalist
the scientific management that
operates q music canning factory
and bit of old Welsh troubador-
ing. from the Radio Music Club,
were all waited through loud speak
ers to the living rooms OF the ma
ton as first.cIass entertainment and
enlightenment last evening. Incl
IDENTIFY, Cotton and Morpheus sang
a swan song, busted up old hector
iodine" and bowed the air weaving
program off the wave lengths for
q brief vacation. Likewise the syn
thetic Eskimos celebrated the first
day of spring by turning them
selves into a Tuesday evening fea-
Wilmott III. Lewis, correspondent
in washington of the London Times,
was the chief speaker of the Voters
Service weekly compendium Of in
formation, told all and sundry that
the American Congress has changed
bit in the last few years--but so
has the country and Congress is
but a reflection of the country. He
made no comparisons with pther
legislative bodies OF other countries
but on the whole indicated that the
House and Senate were jolly well
organized and representative of the
people-indicating that the Senate
is more representative since the be-
ginning of direct election days than
1T used to be.
HOW CANNED
MUSIC GETS THAT WAY
Turning out canned music by the
buzzer system is the method fol.
lowed by the leading photograph
record makers. IL one is to take
seriously the hour of exposition of
photograph methods staged during
the Everready hour. The genial
announcer did not have time to
tell the multitudes that photograph
records are now made through mic
rophones-althoug he indicated as
much-thus giving sort of switch
board operator opportunity to
amplify or reduce volume while a
record is being made. very much as
one does with a radio receiving set
tubes, coils, condensers ETC.. being
used in much the same manner.
This is one of the things that en-
ablcs the studio 10 be operated on
factory methods and records run
off In rapid succession as listeners
heard last evening.
With a little of this and that
and the other kinds of musical
entertainment-and not too much OF
any OF 1.-THE Radio Movie Club
delivered one of the best programs
of it's history from WMAL during
the late hours. The particular stars
of the evening were Wesley Eddy
az a violinist. and Ben Davies.
Welsh singer of ballads. Eddy's
violin playing was big feature
which most OF US hope will be
given prominence In future club
entertainments.

she had about as clear an eye and
about as pleasant a smile as any man
ought to want for everyday company.

facilitates the speed with which such
gifts can be made Wee bits of ribbon

appear prinly in somewhat martial
array across a sachet, the effect OF
which is quite the reverse of prim.
Ribbon interviewer with the same or
contrasting pale shades may form the
entire sachet or serve as a decorative
insert in an otherwise plain one. Lace
forms no part In such a ribbon sacfet.
That is confined in its use to the sachets
Of organdy, silk or chiffon. The very
sheer materials are most acceptable
for the outside. When chiffon Is used
it should veil a soft silk Organdies
may be used over either very fine ba-
tiste or sill. China silk combines well
with them. Particular stress is laid
upon the materials used, but that does
not mean one may not resort to ones
silk-piece bag and salvage whatever
most nearly answers the description and
devise something dainty without ex-
penditure.
In the treasure trove of many house
wife are pieces of lace too exquisite to
be lightly disposed Of. yet too small for
use on gown or lingerie. Here is the
very use for such long -prized pieces.
To many OF them sentiment attaches,
and If there is anything into which
sentiment may rightly be put 1t Is into
the gift for bride or graduate.
The notable thing concerning the
sacfets Of the moment Is the absence
OF embroidery. as has been stated. yet
there Is an exception to this in the silk
sacl1ets which bear tiny quilted motifs
OF ribbon IN flower design upon them.
In some instances 1t is these very
motifs which contain the sachet pow

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Mrs. NJ. J. w. writes: You have
helped me solve several problems: now
will you help me again? My l1-month-
old baby weighs % pounds. made a
mistake when weaving her and allowed
her to go to sleep with the bottle. Now
am trying to break her, and when
take her up to be put on the bottle
at 10, she won't go TO sleep without a
bottle
"At 6 she takes only few ounces
and goes to sleep again. Does she need
five bottles daily? When can / give
less maltese? She takes three rounded
tablespoonfuls to a quart Of milk and
some cereal water. Can plain milk be
given at one year?
"Scraped apples give her the collie
although other babies have no trouble.
For month have tried TO train her
to her chair. putting her on every halt
hour Does it always take them so long
to tell you? She says several words
plainly.
why does baby hiccough when she
laughs?
do you think it all right to put
sleeveless shirts on this Summer? Where
/ live 1t is never very hot. I hope your
column long continues"
Answer-Four bottles day IS enough
for that splendid big baby. no night
feelings at ALL But don't try TO kill
bosh birds at once. When baby has
learned 10 sleep through the night with
out bottle and has forgotten 1T, then
start the training for dryness. You
have long pull ahead Of you, as few
babies are dry at night until lS months
or later
With no night feelings she viii take
her morning feeding az sne saould
which VIII start the day out right.
She can have whole. uudiluted, un-
sgcetcned milk at one year. The sugar
is taken out gradually beginning the
tenth month. Try baked apple or apple
sauce instead of the raw apple. / don's
know why the baby hiccoughs. put fire.
qIently following the taking Of f,od
hiccoughs may result from slight irri-
tation to the throat caused by the baby
splitting up partly soured milk. A drink
OF water and change of position II
usually sufficient to end them.
Don't expect the impossible with an
/ -month~old baby. Keep up the regli-
lar habits Of putting baby on the stool
and eventually mot now she'll know
her desires far enough In advance to
tell you. Sleeveless shirts by all means
or none at all. Just the thin weight
cotton and wool band Is enough for the
Summer The baby Is absolutely ador-
able. you are quite right.
