train he hoped she wouldn't
insist on big wedding :. or if
she wanted orange blossoms and a
veil she should have them all ready
and the date set SO they could be
married right away. Then he said
that the cases were working out bet
ter than he had expected and his
commission was a fat one. He wasn't
doing anything but working :.
That picture on the beach sud-
denly came floating before Sue s
mind. That picture which a news
paper cameraman had caught. And
the half hidden face of the girl in
the dropping hat seemed to come
near, and then withdraw, hooking
ly, provocatively.

But of course that was true. Sue
didn't doubt Jack. Not at all, she
told herself. But maybe he didn't

told herself honestly >. We're of

Somehow the letter didn't satisfy
her. If she hadn't seen that picture
it would have. She would have
gone to sleep will the wind blowing
across the room and half-remember-
ed memories drawing her red lips
into an unconscious smile.
Still, the letter helped. And
everything would be all right some
day, she told herself. Things always
worked out all right. Or did
they?
She heard Sarah come in, but she
tried to breathe quietly and regu-
larly so she would give Sarah the
impression that she was asleep. She

when you were not in mood to
count your own particular blessings.
But in the morning she had to
listen to Sarah. Sue had awakened
with a rather strange, puzzled feet
ing. Something had happened. SE'
couldn't remember just what in the
first moment Of Weakening. Then she
knew. The cloudy gray feeling that
had baffled her the night before
came stealing back.
Sarah. too, had awakened with Il
sense that something had happened.
Something that she could not quite
grasp as she lay there half asleep
and half awake. But it was some
thing lovely, something happy
She was almost afraid to wake up
for fear it would go drifting away.
For fear it had been a shining mir

Your
CHILDREN
BY Olive Roberts Barton
@IosI 81 NEA SERVICE INC:


Does a baby have feelings? Is he
born with the mental impressions
that we call emotions? Or do they
develop later as he begins to expe-
rience life?
This question never has been def
initely settled, but DR. j. B. watson
assures us that two fears are born
in a baby, or show themselves very
soon after birth. These are aversion
to sudden loud noise and the dread
of falling. By association OF IDEAS
the baby soon learns other more
complex things based on two facts.
Rage probably is an elemental emo
ton present at birth, and-this Is
open to dispute-love also.
However, let us go to the chart
and observe in general way how
the average baby's feelings do de-
velop. From a very small beginning,
his emotional growth spreads out
like a fan, or a pedigree, or a prob
lem in arithmetic progression, or
compound interest. 1t would be
impossible to present all the baby's
rapidly accommodating impressions
and his reaction to them, but few
will show the regularity with which
they appear.
How They Develop
FEAR: ! to 6 weeks-a convulsive
reaction to loud sounds.
II to Is weeks-signs of fear on
seeing strangers.
RAGE: to 6 weeks-the child
struggles and cries If compelled to
lie down when he wishes to sit up.
LOVE, or what we know as love:
to 6 weeks-he smiles and shows
signs of contentment when touched
on the lips.
At 7 weeks he smiles in response
to the voice and nodding.
BY the Sth week, and from then
on, he shows signs of interest and
pleasure in looking at new objects
AT ~ to 16 weeks-he laughs
aloud when played with or gently
rumpled.
At u weeks, he laughs aloud at
explosive sounds if they go with
quick motion (provided his fear of
this sound has not already been es-
tablished).
When he is or s months old, he
clearly shows signs of joy at the
sight of his carriage or cap and
coat
Please mark this: cat months
he probably will show signs Of
shame if his funny sounds are imi-
tated or he is made fun of. He will
stop and not go on. At this age he is
likely to cry or fu"s i' strangers pick
him up-fear again." .rt
At this age, go, he expects his
mothers undivided attention -
very important time to do a little
gentle but definite training.
BY the time he is months old he
cries when laughed at-a decided
beginning of inferiority and unhap-
piness. Watch out for it.

Can You Be Cool as a Gu
cumber at a Luncheon?
MY Florence La Ganke

1t was hot day. Nancy was CIV
ing shower for a friend of hers
She had been undecided as to what
to serve. but she made up her mind
that she would base her menu on
the traditional phrase "cool as Gu
cumber."
She decided she would combine
that idea with the matrimonial

worked out this menu

The tomato juice cocktail had a
bit of onion juice, a dash of horse
radish and lemon juice added to 1t
after it had been sailed to taste.
Just a few grains of sugar mellowed
and smothed the flavor.
The cucumbers were chosen of
uniform size. They were cut into
halves lengthwise and followed. The
cucumber pulp which was taken out
was used with celery, fresh peas
and chicken cubes for the salad.
At serving time the mixture was
put back into the we'll chilled Gu
cumber boats. Some hostesses may
want to add tiny flags but Nancy
resisted the impulse.
In mixing her chicken salad she
marinated or added French dressing
to the cooked, diced meat of the
chicken and to the diced celery. She
did not add the cucumber until
serving time,

Per Cent Beer in Closing
Session of Convention.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oc-
tober 16.-The American Federation of
Labor has handed an of1cially approved
unemployment relief program to Amer
lea and ended its fifty-first annual con-
Vention here.
In q seven-point program to deal with
the business depression the convention
yesterday reafflrmed its stand for modi-
hcation of the Volstead act to permit
the sale of 2.75 per cent beer. Resolu-
tons advocating repeal of the eighteenth
amendment and the Volstead act were
sidetracked.
william Green, reelected president
of the Federation by reclamation. is
pledged to go to Congress and demand
appropriations to relieve every hungry
man. woman and child In the country
II the Nation fails to reduce unemploy-
ment in other ways.
Chief Points Of Program.
Here are the chief points in labor's
program:
l. Maintenance Of the United States
wage standard to keep up purchasing
power.
2. Shorter working hours. on the
ground that industry should share the
benefits of the machine age with labor.
3. Prohibition Of child labor
4. National planning to balance pro-
duction and consumption.
5. Employers to take on more work
ers, the idea being that industrial lead
ers should care for their men as a
father cares for his children"
g. Creation of work through public
building and construction, on the theory
that the Nation is obligated to look 10
the welfare of all its citizens, although
the convention voted down emphatically
the unemployment insurance or dole"
system.
7. Strengthening Of employment
agencies, equitable distribution of all
work, more even distribution OF wealth
through taxation in the higher brackets
and stimulation of industry by re-
sumption of brewing OF mild beer.
Detailed System Of Relief.
Besides these salient points. the fed
Grafton approved a detailed system for
relief, divided into temporary and
permanent aid. Relief through public
appropriations and private funds was
the outstanding suggestion for i'm
mediate aid.
In offering the program. labor
leaders denounced capital and industry
for failing to offer Single idea for
unemployment relief and depression
