Your Baby and Mine

usually we look everywhere except at
our own actions for the causes of q
cn1ld's behavior, but we are being will
fully blind. The reasons for a child's
good or bad behavior are, In most
cases, attributable to his treatment ut
nome and the effect of his home sur
roundinss upon him. In this case the
mother mentions the causes and the
enect, but doesn't connect their bear
ing upon each other.
MRS. e. T. Says:e"I read your column

this Is nervousness?
he VIII not go out to play like other

petite. What do you suppose would be
the cause of all this?"
There seems to be two answers to it.
Inc child is obviously being made cow
aroly and unhappy through fear. The
outdoor world seems fun of new and
strange dangers. and so he refuses to
go out and meet them. He is probably
quite unaware of the reasons for his
being, beaten, and SO ne fears almost
everything.
There is the physical side, too. He
may be anemic whether. the lack Of
appetite causes that or the snemis
causes the lack of appetite is a ques-
tom, and he would really suffer from
the cold. II you give him toys with
which he can play actively outdoors
bundle him up in leggings, overshoes. q
warm sweater and cap and coat. He
should be comfortable outdoors. II you
go out with him for a while, or talk
to him frequently from the doorway, he
will be happier out there alone and will
De more inclined to repeat the expert

Consider the sparrows. They neither

you not more precious in His sight. than
they?
Spsrrows are rated at little value.
Once two Of them sold for g farthing.
Nobody buys them now. Yet not one of
them ever falls to the ground without
the notice OF our Heavenly Father. Are
you not more important than they? Are
you not of greater value than many
Sparrows?

the following little poem

Why the anxious human beings

"Said thA sparrow TO the robin,
Friend, think that IL must be
That they have no Heavenly Father
Such as cares for you and me-"
Let those who are fretted with anx-
iOus care give heed to this reproof OF
the sparrow. Listen how the sparrows

forebo0ing They laboR not, vet they
ale fed. They cannot trust vet they
are cared for. They are of little value.
vet they are not neglected. You are
cbove them in all these respects. You
are esteemed of God to be of greater
value than SUM- moon OF star. You have
the capacity to work and trust and by
the exercise OF that capacity you can

God, be faithful In your work, exercise
normal common sense and foresight

Names of Fabrics
BY MARIE SHAI.MAR.

Most materials, like most sorts of
cheese, have derived the names by
which they are known today from the
town or province in which they were
first produced. And for much the same
reason.
Everywhere in Europe there was some
sort of local weaving, and weavers
working together in more or less iso-
lated communities naturally worked out
specialized sorts of cloth making-the
nature of which frequently depended to
a great extent on the nature of avail
able raw materials at hand.
Calico Is derived from Calicut, the
place in India where this cotton mate
rial was first used. DamaSk was first
made in Damascus, madras in Madras,
muslin in Mosul and lawn in Loan
Batiste was named after an early
French linen weaver named Jean Bap-
tiSte. cambria was first made Ia Cam
brai. France: denim was first made in
Mines, chambray in Chambray. Isle
thread material in Isle and the first
swiss. dotted or otherwise, came from
Switzerland.
Among silks canton crepe and canton
flannel were first made in Canton, China
while china silk and crepe de chine were
products of China.

attack by the Pickwick- Greyhound Bus
Line failed today before the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
That body refused to dismiss formal
complaint which the bus company has
filed against the railroad and ordered
the issue set down for trial some time
this Fall.
The Union Pacific owns the Interstate
Transit Line, bus company competing
with the Pickwick- Greyhound combina-
ton. The Pickwick complaint asserts
the Union Pacific is discriminating in
interstate commerce by rendering spe-
cial service at preferential rates to its
own bus service.
The right of railroads to operate bus
service in connection with their own
rail service is the primary issue. A bill
pending before Congress proposed to
settle the question by giving railroads
such power.
