Dear Mrs. Post: Is a lovely Italian
all-lace tablecloth, with napkins to
match, suitable for use on my dining
table for an afternoon tea? II so,
what color should I put under it?"
Answer: The lace cloth is entirely
suitable, but do not put color under
it-nor anything. Put it directly over
the bare table.
Dear Mrs. Post: Because of a new
building next to us the sunlight in our
living room has become twilight. Can
you give me any suggestion as to how
to increase its light? 1 thought of
painting it green, but friend tells me
that she painted dark room green
and it made it darker"
Answer: The color that produces the
nearest substitute for sunlight Is very
pale and slightly lemon yellow. More
over, high gloss finish will increase
the light. Also. there is a Special win
dow glass which greatly increases light.
Any builder can tell you about it.

mand ways of increasing the
child's consumption of some special
article of food. Sometimes there are
good ways of so doing; often 1t Is better
not to force anything and to let the
appetite increase naturally.
In the case to be considered today
there are some very trivial changes
which it is wise to make, and they ap-
ply to many other appetiteless cases.
Mrs. z. A. has baby of 9 months
who is practically weaned from the
breast. but refuses to take sufficient
milk TO keep up her gain in weight.
The trouble" writes Mrs. E. A., ''is
that she does not care to be nursed,
but she takes very small amounts Of
other milk. She is losing weight now
lost two ounces last week and several
the week before. She weighed only six
pounds 13 ounces at birth, and now
weighs 16 pounds.
IT took he. to the doctor and he
said to give her undiluted, boiled milk
He also advised custards and junket
and gelatin but she takes no more
than a spoonful of those and then
pushes them away. have always re-
moved the food when she pushes it
away
"She gets the following menu: 8
am, nursing; 8 am, two ounces of
orange juice. one teaspoonful Of cod
liver oil; 10 am, four tablespoonfuls of
cereal cooked in milk, and one to two
ounces of milk; pm, one-half can of
baby vegetables. one egg yolk, one or
two teaspoonfuls Of fruit and one or
two ounces of milk; pm, two ounces
Of orange juice and a zweiback; 6 pm,
four tablespoonfuls of cereal, one or two
teaSpoonfuls of custard, and one-half
to one ounce of milk.
/ Some days she will not taste her
milk. This morning at 6 am. she took
four ounces before she nursed and
seemed to enjoy it. Can you suggest
any way of getting her to drink her
milk? She has not started to creep,
but pulls herself up. She has no teeth" !"
There are no very drastic changes
to be suggested, but 1t is possible that
even small ones will be effective.
Give all orange juice at one feeding,
say three ounces at 8 am. and none at
pm. The zweiback should be in
cluded with the pm. meal. That may
easily be taking the edge of baby'S 8
pm. appetite.
Give the custard also at 2 pm,

which meal will then be vegetables, egg
yolk, zweiback and custard. Offer no
milk at that time.
If your milk is very rich in cream,
skim most Of it before boiling. Rich
milks are very often inhibiting to
good appetite, especially in hot weather,
when we do not need such rich and
heating foods.
II she takes her milk better before
the solid foods, offer it; then otherwise

Give it by cup instead Of bottle. That

UNCLE WIGGILY'S FOXY

Uncle Wiggily was standing in
the snow house which he had

white flakes at the end of the path

house if it were not for the Fox,

are not so nice I surely must play
a foxy trick on him"
1t was the late afternoon Of a
day when Uncle Wiggily had gone
out to the snow house after the
rabbit children had been playing
in it. Mr.. Longears wanted to be
sure that the snow house was all
right for the bunny boys and girls
to play in next day.
But. no sooner had Uncle Wig

than the Fuzzy Fox, who was
watching his chance, slipped
around to the back door and, piling
a lot of snow around it, closed it

HELP THE BLIND


0NE of the pleasant things about writ
" ing this column is the opportunity
presented now and then to say a good
word for some worthy undertaking.
There is none more pleasant than to
urge cooperation on the part of the peo-
pie of Ell Centre for the annual fund in
aid of the American Brotherhood of
Reading for the Blind, which will be
held here on Saturday.
For several years past the people here
have been given an opportunity to help
this most worthy work and each year
the response has been most generous.
The results of their work are shown
in the volumes of THE Winning of Bar
bara Worth = Imperial Valleys own
book, which have been printed in the
Braille system and distributed through
out the country, thereby enabling the
blind to read the story of the valley.
There is no need to dwell on the need
for helping the blind. 1t is only too ap-
parent. None can refuse the silent ap-
peal which these unfortunates make, and
if there is ore class of dependents which
has the fullest sympathy and consider
alton of the public, it is the blind.
The opportunity given local people to
extend this sympathy and consideration
III d LldltlIdl way, VIII IlOl DS ONSI
None is asked to give a large sum of
money. 1t is collected by local COM
nittee and forwarded to the headquar-
ters of the brotherhood in Los Angeles,
thereby eliminating any overhead. The
solicitors are Ell Centro school young
sters, glad to help in a worthy cause.
The committee in charge of the Saturday
collection is composed of women whose
standing in Ell Centre is known to all
and their presence on the committee is
sufficient guarantee for the credulous
who shy away from the over-emphasized
drive"
No matter how the pinch of depres-
sion may have been felt, all of US have
odd dimes or quarters which we can
spare. These will go far toward making
the local collection as great a success
as it has been in the past.
It's deserving the full support of the
people and they will not turn it down,
we are sure.
With all those ukuleles strumming, it
is surprising something worse didn't hap
nen wears ago.

of gang leadership. while he went
about the prosaic tasks of a bak-

thinking it over.
Krok, IT, saw a gangster picture
and it all looked so easy in the
movies. It seemed child's play to
use a "gat" and stage holdups and
flaunt the police.
With money won in crap game,
Krok purchased gun. One night
he went into a speakeasy. He had

LOUISIANA HOLDS
MAN WHO ESCAPED
FROM LOCAL JAIL

Ending an intensive manhunt
along the Mexican border and
through the southern states, q tele-
gram was received in the sheriff's
office late yesterday that George
Goban, 25, whu escaped from the
county Jail here December Is, is
in custody in Monroe, La, where
he was arrested on a charge OF
breaking and entering.
Violating the trust placed in him
by iailers, Goban took advantage
of his position as a trusty and
"candy boy" to ship out of the jail
after he had served only six days
of a six months sentence from the
Calexico police court for assault
and battery.
Goban was arrested in Louisiana
as James Anderson. His finger

the foxy trick he was going to play,
perhaps you would like some
candy"
What kind of candy?" asked the
Fox, curious like.
What would you say to marsh
malloW candy?' asked the rabbit.
oh, if there is any one kind of
candy I like better than another,
said the Fox, 1T is marshmalloWs.
But have you any here?"
Listen to him. chuckled Mr..
Longears, pretending to be talking
to someone he did not sec. He
asks if I have any marshmallow
candy. Why look here!'
Mr.. Longears pointed his paw to
a box which the rabbit children
had brought into the snow house
to pretend it was a table. On this
box were some round, white things
just like marshmallow candies.
Help yourself!" invited Uncle
Wiggily.
"Oh, what a lot of candy!
howled the Fox. Greedily he filled
both paws with the white things
and stuffed them into his mouth
The next moment he gave loud
howl and yelled: "Oh, my teethl
How cold! How cold! Oh, I'm
freezing!' and he danced about
inside the snow house. What kind
of marshmalloW candies do you
call these?" asked the Fox.
Those aren't marshmalloWs!
chuckled Mr.. Longears. They are
chunks of snow my bunnieS made
to look like candy! You ate lot
of snow instead Of marshmalloWs
Mr.. Fox Ha! Ha! That was the
trick I was going to play on you
and I did,
Then, as the Fox hoped around
in the snow house, holding his
aching, freezing teeth, Uncle Wig
gily jumped over his head, out OF
the front door and ran safely into
his bungalow. He had tricked the
Fox and everything was just fine
and dandy. And if the tooth brush

gave his name here as Goban.
1t was probably the fact he was
wanted in North Dakota that
caused Goban to take an oppor-

Jail here before officers had a
chance to check his record, it is
believed.
A queer coincidence was shown
when it was discovered Goban es-
capped from the North Dakota jail
