BETTY WITH VICTROLA
What does the working mother

What does the working mother
do with her baby?
Mrs. Clara Nicely, superinten-
dent Of the day nursery at
Neighborhood House, can answer
the question. The kindly grey
haired woman with her staff Of
capable assistants has 20 chill
dren, ranging in age from a few
months to 5 or 6 years. in her
charge. All are children OF
working mothers.
The youngsters are delivered in
Mrs. Neely's care in the morning
and the mothers call for them
when their work is done. They
pay what they can afford. And
sometimes. when the budget is
extremely limited they charge 1t.
Oh yes. they will pay some time.
but until then their babies are
properly fed and cared for by
trained teachers under the guild
ance of a woman who loves babies
beyond anything else in the
world.
Little Disciplining
Mrs. Neely has very definite
ideas regarding the training and
disciplining of children. She be-
lieveS they are better off with as
little discipline as possible and
that they learn the rules of good
society from each other. In deal
ing with the individual, she takes
into consideration the background
of the child. She can tell at
once, she claims, upon seeing a
child, whether it has been prop
erly cherished in its home en-
vironment.
Laughingly she says:
"Of course, most of the
mothers love their babies. But
we love them too and they
learn in q day or two that
the NeighbOrhOOd House is as
much home as their mothers
apartment or house"
Case of One Child
Growing grave she tells of one
case, however. which is the
exception to the rule. The boy,
disliked by his mother, has been
with Mrs. Nicely since he was
five months old and, she hopes,
will remain with her until other
arrangements are made for him
at home.

the standard of living in the

rector of employment, yesterday

success Of his plan as practiced

A demand that Deputy Sheriff

and that Mr.. Garrison's action,
If any, was made upon his own

GROWTH OF ALLIED
CLOTHERS

Twelve years ago a half dozen
clothiers Of the Northwest banded
together for the purpose Of making
their purchases together. At first
this group was so small that no
buying office was necessary, but as
time went on the organization
grew to such an extent that 1t was
necessary to open an office in st.
Paul, which at first consisted Of a
desk and chair.
The Allied Clothiers continued to
grow until larger offices were nee
|essary, additional personel was add
ed and a jobbing department es-
tablished. A few years later they
established their own overall and
play suit factory. This. spring they
purchased and equipped their own
building the purchase being at
such a favorable price that both
rent and insurance have been re-
duced as compared with those
charged in the old quarters, which
were inadequate. Today the AL
lied Clothiers Buying Office and
Jobbing Department Is one Of the
most modern wholesale plants in
the Northwest. The Allied Cloth
Ter maintains in st. Paul a corps
Of expert buyers and merchandise
men giving the member stores
every price advantage Of the largest
chain store system. This has been
possible because there are today
I257 Allied Clothiers purchasing as
one store, bringing lower prices and
better qualities to the ultimate con-
lsumer.
The Allied Clothier in Sank Gen.
tire is The Model. Take time to see
the pictures Of the new Allied
Clothier Buying Office in st. Paul,
now being shown in the windows
Of The Models store.-Adv.
