/. Sufficiency.
2. Cleanliness.
3. Vitamin content.
There are other things which
must be watched, but these
three come first.
That the baby should get
enough applies to breast-fed as
we'll as to bottle-fed babies. Of
course mothers milk is the best
infant food. If that is impos-
sible the next best is cows
milk. The prepared milks-
eVaporated and dried milks-
are quite as satisfactory as
fresh whole milk.
Babies usually will not eat
more than they can tolerate.
Some babies will not take much
at each feeding but if they con-
tinue gaining weight and are
happy and contented they are
getting enough. 1t is better to
have the bottle too full than
too empty and let the baby de-
side. If the baby accidentally
gets too much it easily and SIM
ply regurgitates the overflow.
Cleanliness is obtained by
boiling the milk. Dried and
evaporated milks are likely to
be cleaner than dairy milk.
Sometimes the underfeeding
is found to be due to lack of
accessory foods or vitamins.
Cod liver oil or viosterol is be-
gun about the second month,
and orange Juice earlier. These
contain the only Vitamins neceS.

WASHINGTON FASHIONS

Now that the world has gone
velvet mad, that velvets are so
low in price that they're within
the reach of everyone, that they
are made in every imaginable
way, the one and only way to
get particular distinction in
your velvet gown, is to sponsor
one of the new dull textures.
Newest velvets are uncut, are
crinkled, embossed, or are sten-
ciled. They have something
done to their surfaces to make
them different, and to assure a
certain amount of exclusiveness
if you buy one of them. The
newer types are luSterleSs, too,
and usually SO thin and supple
that they can be draped as
easily and closely as a chiffon.
Black as Night
Chief among these new vel
vets is "bagheera," made by
Condurier of France, a marve-
lous fabric that really doesn't
look like the velvet you're ia
miliar with, at all. 1t is quite
thin and easily draped, is uncut
and has a very dull surface, and
is sometimes spoken of as messy.
1t is very luxurious, and can be
made into the most beautiful Of
gowns. It's smart in both black
and colors, and will be seen
about town quite a bit, later,
though very little of it has ap.
peared so far. The colors are
luscious and deep, and because
of its dulness, the black is
blacker than midnight. It will
make hats, shoes and bags, as
well as dresses.
In WOmen'S Sizes
The gown sketched is of ba-
gheera, in the most luscious
winey red, not too dark to
brighten the occasion and the
wearer. It makes a dress that
is formal because it is of velvet,
but is simply made, SO that it
will do for those many in-be-
tween, or rather informal after
noon occasions. The waistline
is adjustible, with a sash that
may be worn tight or not, and
ties in the back. The draped
neckline is becoming, and the
clip is matched by the buttons
on the cuffs. Moderately puffed
sleeves look wider for the tight
ness Of the cuffs. This dress
comes in women's sizes, is of the
superior quality that more of us
will demand this year, and is
priced $49.50.
For further fashion infOrma-
tiOn, or for the name of the
store where you can find this
dress, write Miss LaviIle, enclos-
ing a Self-addreSSed stamped
envelope, or call District $3.50,

The Beauty
Box

It is impossible to create an
infallible standard Of weights
and measurements, because of
the difference in bony construc-
tions of the body. If girl
is 10 pounds overweight accord
ing to the charts, she needn't
worry. Not if she is in good
health and the excess adipose
baggage is evenly distributed.
Line and proportion mean more
than the number Of pounds
the scales report.
When the beauty budget
looks lean and the complexion
needs a bleaching pack, save
your sour cream. Mix with
oatmeal to form a mixture
that will spread easily over the
skin. Battle the face, apply the
pack, let it remain on for Is
minutes, or until it begins to
flake. Lave with tepid water,
apply witch hazel with absorb
ent Gotten. The complexion
will emerge with a fresh, clear
look; discolorationS of the sum-
mer season will gradually van
ish.
Give your hair the air. 1t
needs ventilation, especially now
that the finger wave keeps it
smacked down flat to the scalp.
The best time for airing and
scalp friction is the night before
shampoo when the wave is weak,
doesn't care what happens to it.
Begin with a brushing, strand
by strand, holding the hair
straight up away from the head.
Rub the scalp briskly, running
the fingers through the hair as
if they were the teeth of a
comb. A bit of hot oil or tonic
helps along the good work.

In days to come, that wait far
out
Beyond the limits of our sight,
Beyond the tumult and the
doubt
Our lives will all be glad and
bright.
All shadowless, all sweet, serene
Will be the hours Of those
days,
And in each new, auspicious
scene
We shall find only peace and
praise.
Oh, after troubled years like
these,
Whose joy is brief as wave
tossed foam,
How sweet will be those har-
And hopes.made-true of days
to come!
Yet from these dim, dark days
CndC are
We weave the glory and the
glow
Of that fair future like a star,
That lovelier realm which we
shall know.
From this dull moment in our
hands
We fashion all-the bluer
dome, Q
The clearer air, the brighter
lands
That we shall gain in days to
come!

infants diet.
Cereals can be begun with
most babies during the fourth
month, certainly during the
sixth month.
The symptoms of underfeed-
ing include most of the symp-
toms usually ascribed to diges-
tive disturbances-constipation
and, in many cases, diarrhoea.
When these symptoms arise the
mother frequently thinks the
formula should be changed.
when, as a matter of fact, all
the baby needs is more food.
Diarrhoea in a baby should
never be treated by home
methods, but requires the ad-
vice of an expert.
Lack of gain in weight, is, of
course. the outstanding indica-
ton that the baby is not get
ting enough food. Restlessness,
sleeplesSness and irritability are
also symptoms of the same
thing.

When Manners
Are Correct
The Lady's Coat

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
What is the proper etiquette
in regard to a young man carry
ing a young lady's coat and also
her umbrella?
I have a friend who does not
object to carrying a lady's UNI
brella, but objects strenuously
to carrying her coat. T main.
tain that he should carry her
coat, while he says he feels
ridiculous doing so. w.
I agree with your friend
about this. Of course, if man
wishes to carry a woman's coat,
he may with gallantry ard pro-
priety to do. But see no spe-
cial reason why he should do
this. If 1 were a man am sure
that I'd admire a woman who
carries her own coat and her
umbrella. and who would in
siSt on carrying these if I sIg.
gested that I'd carry theml

2 made an opening bid Of
1-Club, intending later to show
his spades. A bid 1-Spade, and
Y overcalled with 2-Hearts. B
passed. z shifted to 2-No
Trumps, to show his weakness
in his partners suit and to dis
close his ability to several
times stop spade leads from his
left. A passed. Y held poor
support for his partners clubs
and he realized the strategic
advantage that z would derive
from the opening lead go up to
him instead of having the lead
go through him. Y could have
rebid his own good five-card
suit, but he held a stop in the
unbid diamond suit, so he
wisely decided to bid 3-No
Trumps. Everyone passed.
A made a false lead Of his
Two of Spades, as if he held
only four cards of the suit,
but z paid no attention to
such nonsense. He did not
believe that A had bid four
headed by only King-Jack.
When Dummy's Seven held
the first trick, it's Jack of
Clubs was led back, and it
won the second trick, plainly
showing that the holder of the
missing Ace did not have four
cards of the suit to the Ace
Ten. The Three of Clubs was
led next, and the Queen won
= the trick. On the first two
leads of Clubs the Four and
Seven had fallen at Declarer's
right and the Eight-Five had
dropped at his left, leaving
only the Ace-Ten missing.
Fully convinced that the two
missing Clubs must drop to-
gether on the next lead, the
Declarer led his King of that
suit. BIS Ace won the trick,
and the Five of Spades came
through rs hand. His Ace
won the trick and A played the
Three, marking the King-Jack-
Eight as still held by the lat
ter, and that B held no more
Spades.
Before losing Y's diamond
entry, z had to try the finesse
in hearts, but first z gathered
IN his two good club tricks. A
discarded one diamond and one
spade. Dummy had let 60 one
heart upon the third lead of
clubs; now another heart and
the lowest diamond went. B
dlSgarded two diamonds. z led
his top heart, AS 9 covered, and
dummy'S j held the trick. B
played the 2. In case A held
both the Ace and K of dia-
mondS that player could win
only those two tricks and take
his good spade. Y felt perfect
ly safe in laying down dummy's
Ace of hearts, confident that
A must drop the missing K, as
he did. Then dummy's 8 of
diamond was led. B played the
9, and rs 10 lost to AS K.
That player took his K of
spades, hoping that dummy
would be squeezed for dis
card. But the declarer knew
that unless A held the Ace of
diamonds, that B held that
card mad the 10-6 of hearts. A
had no heart to lead back, and
B could not afford to discard
the Ace Of diamonds, if he held
that card; B would have to let
go his lowest heart, so dummy's
j of diamonds was discarded,
leaving only the Q of diamonds
and the Q of hearts.
If A led his j of spades, rs
Q would win the trick, so A
led his last diamond. BIS Ace
won the trick, but he had to
lead back a heart, giving w
their ninth trick and game at
no-trumps.

Advice to the
LoveIorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Dear Miss Fairfax:
You seem to give others such
good advice that I am almost
sure you could help me with
my problem.
I have met a very nice boy
and would like to go out with
him, but I don't know how to
go about it. He speaks to me
and is quite friendly, but fails
to make a date. What shall
] do? BETTY.
He's probably one of the shy
kind and is waiting for you to
take the first step and invite
him. You might invite him to
call, and if you don't want it
to look too pointed get up a
card game or some sort of lit
tie party for two or three
friends.

Too Hasty a WoOing

Dear Miss Fairfax:
This summer at the beach I
met a young man at 3 in the
afternoon, by 6 we were in love
and by 9 that evening he pro-
posed marriage. I accepted him
in more or less of a joking
fashion, and we had a crowd
up to celebrate. I had to go
home early the next day, and
so did not see him; but he
called my home when I was
out. Would you write to him
or call? Incidentally, Miss Fair
fax, I am interested in him.
UNCERTAIN.
Marry in haste, repent at
leisure" seems to have escaped
your attention, my dear. The
kind of lark you describe may
be all very well for a vacation
prank, but for an acquaintance
Of a few hours to propose mar
riage-surely you can't be in
earnest.
