Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.
Feeding Intervals.

~ NE of the things always hate
to do Is to pull to pieces q
schedule which seems to be
~ working no matter how poor
I consider 1t to be. But one
must have convictions. and one OF mine
is that poor schedule inevitably will
not work, so that what harm there is
in upsetting 1t Is balanced by the fu-
ture benefits
Mrs. @. M. asks for criticism, good or
bad. of her schedule, and though she
takes her baby for monthly visit to
doctor. she wants my opinion, which
she deems good and sensible"
Baby Is 8 months old, weighs 81
pounds weighed 8 pounds IL ounces
| at birth, and has two lower teeth
since 512 months old, and the uppers
now nearly through.
Her formula consists Of Is ounces
of grade A milk, ounces of boiled
water and 2 tablespoonfuls Of syrup.
This goes into four bottles as she
stopped taking the 10 pm. bottle at 4
months.
"She has always slept the entire
night. She doesn't drink a great deal
Of water. Can I give her sieved ba-
nanas in place of the cereal? Here is
the way feed her: $50 am, bottle;
am, three tablespocnfuls of cereal;
8 am, orange or tomato Juice and two
teaspoonfuls of cod liver oil; 10 am,
bath and bottle. Maps until nearly l
o'clock. l pm, two tablespoonfuls of
vegetables or vegetable soup; 2 pm,
bottle; airing in good weather until
or 4:30 pm; $50, egg yolk; 6 pm,
bottle; in bed at 7 for the night"
Baby may not be exhausted by this
continuous eating pep6srmance, but
am. Feedings at $50, 8, 8, 10, l, 2,
$50 and 6. Eight times a day, when
the baby from birth can get along nicely
with but four meals a day. The foods
your baby gets are perfectly proper
ones. but you are forgetting that they
are foods and keeping the baby's stom-
ach in a constant turmoil Of digestion
from waking until sleeping.
Sieved, ripe bananas may be offered
at the same hours in the same amounts
as the cereal The baby Is capable
of taking 80 ounces of whole milk, but
this amount may be worked toward
gradually by an increase of an ounce
each day and a similar decrease in wa
ter content. Here Is the way the baby
should be fed.
$50, eight ounces of milk; $50,
orange juice and cod liver oil; 10:30,
cereal or banana and second bottle;
2:30, vegetable. egg yolk and third bot
tie; $50, cereal and fourth bottle. In
bed for the night at the present hour
and with maps at approximately the
same periods Your work will be cut
in half and baby's stomach will get a
much needed rest.

AMERICAN RAVEN.


Corax Principals.
! LTHE bird of iu-omen" is famous
- in song and story. He is
mentioned in the oldest book
i in the world and In the
Bible he Is the first bird who
is supposed to have left the Ark. The
Norsemen gave him a place in their
| religion. They placed one on each
shoulder of their god, Odin: The
| ravens were named Thought" and
| Memory" and each night they were
supposed to whisper into Odin's ear
| the secrets of the world as they had
seen them on their daily flight. In
battle the Morse warriors wore an en-
| blem of the raven and felt confident
of victory with this talisman.
There are many stories, some of the
good luck the bird is supposed to bring
but as harbinger of doom and mis-
fortune, he holds first place. Many
say he calls corpse, corpse" and when
heard at night they are sure,
The ravens hoarse note, from the boush
Poe. the poet. claimed the bird said
"Nevermore.' One thing that is GER
tain, the bird is famous the world
over, and while he is never seen in the
South, he is often seen in the frozen
barren places of the extreme North.
Down the ages the bird has been
feared, respected and revered. He be-
longs to the crow family and is its
most important member. His coat is
glossy, and in the light it has beauti-
full blue and green tints. In size he is
fully 26 inches long and measures over
yard between wing tips. On his
throat and chin he has tuft of long,
loose feathers, sort of goatee. You
may mistake crow for a raven, but
you would never mistake a raven for
crow. They fly by making two flaps

world that causes as much
- worry and trouble as
small house and a large
family? I think not! I like to invite
my friends in to play bridge, sometimes
at least, but there is always the ques-
ton of where mother and dad Will sit,
or where the two younger children Will
study their lessons. (2) And we haven't
any clothes closets except those In the
to bed (eventually?), then the guests
wraps are tucked away with their slum-
bers and the whole house is awakened
If 60 In to get them. This problem Is
even too much for magician to an
swer, guess"
NV answer: One solution to your
problem is very simple, If you have the
wherewithal to furnish your bed room
as sitting room. The bed would have
to look like a sofa. This Is not hard to
contrive out of any narrow bed which
has a low head and footboard, with
slip cover of cfintZ and five pillows
covered with chintz, three against the
wall and one at head and at foot. A
bureau could be made to look all right
II the mirror is framed and hung on
the wall, if the top is bare and sitting
room ornaments take the place OF
toilet articles. Of course, If you could
get a very small secretary it would
take away the bed room effect entirely.
Also, three fiat cushions put on top of
the beds mattress will complete the
appearance of sofa. In such sit
ting room, no matter how small, you
could probably manage card table and
spend perfectly tranquil evening, and
also insure one for your family.
This suggestion may not be impos-
sible. Chintz is not expensive. Pillows,
good enough for sofa-back and ends,
need not be feather filed. A bridge
lamp might be spared from the living
room. If this plan is beyond your bud
get. then can only suggest that the

Blending Alcohol
 Bill Is Opposed
Gov Cross Registers Disapproval at Washington
 Blend Alcohol With Gasoline

Hartford, Conn.,, April 28-Op- position to bills designed to re- ouire the blending of 2 to 1O& of ethyl alcohol with gasoline for use as motor fuel which have been introduced in congress was voiced today by Governor Cross, who sent the following telegram to the president: My attention has been called to the fact that various alcoholic interests seek federal legislation to blend alcohol with gasoline (stop) What small bene- ficial results may obtain from this legislation are in my opinion greatly outweighed by most serious effects on legitimate industries and in turn the ultimate motoring pub- lie (stop) For these and other reasons I am opposed to the pro- posed legislation"
 This telegram was also sent to United States Senators Augustine Lonergan and Frederick. Walcott and to United States Congressmen Herman P. Koppleman and Fran cis T. Maloney, and to the chair man of the committee of agricul- ture.
 The bills which purport to pro- vide relief for the farmer are being strongly opposed by motorists and the gasoline and automotive indus tries throughout the country. The Connecticut Petroleum Industries committee states that, if any of the new bills were to become a law, motorists of this state would find themselves being compelled to pay q higher price on gasoline for the benefit of the large corn-growing states of the middle west, and that the increase in the cost of motor fuel based on 10Go blend and present corn prices would add to the general costs of operating cars

Reports from merchants who cooperated in yesterdays Water bury Day program and Chamber of Commerce officials indicated to- day that the event was one or the most successful venture under taken by business here in long time. All cooperating merchants were enthusiastic in their com ments upon the results of the day. Frank J. Green, secretary Of the Waterbury Chamber of Commerce said it was a red letter day all around. Reports of pessimistic na- ture that had been occasionally been received at his office were changed to a high degree of optim- ism as the employees in his office re- ported checkups on cooperating stores. John E.. Bulger, chairman of the committee in charge or the event, reported the day as FIX ceedingly satisfactory"
 Leading merchants were poth surprised and elated at the wop- derful turnout in all of the various type stores and business establish- ments. The other side of the pie ture, the shoppers side, showed gratifying result. The shoppers came, saw and purchased because they knew they were getting worthwhile purchases at phenom- inaIly low prices.

 Washington, April 2S-(UP)- Jim Farley, the lord high execu- tioner of democratic patronage, is accustomed to seeing about every one among the throngs asking favors from the new administra- tion. But he was slightly taken aback when one of his visitors turned out to be a Hoover cam paign manager.
 The postmaster general has adopted a new system of dealing with patronage hunters. At about 4 D. m. daily, he comes out of his private office and makes the rounds of the congressmen, job seekers and well wishers as- sembled in the waiting room. J. A. Latimer. Farley's secretary, does the introducing.

 The mayor said that yes, he had, and that he'd just dropped in to say hello, and see how Jim did 1t.

throughout the United States something in the neighborhood of $5,O00,000 or about 2ORo more than it is now.
 The blending scheme. according to Alan Levine, secretary of the committee, is regarded by many economists as nothing but an un- necessarily expensive way or burning surplus corn products. Diverting corn to this new market, he says, would not increase corn prices to previous levels, Iowa State college estimates that 8 136 in- crease in consumption raises farm prices only 28o.
 According to MT Levine, the far mers consume about 25eo of all gasoline used and. in buying blend ed fuel would be paying about 25D6 of the increased bill. Reduc- ton of consumption usually fol- lows increase in prices of gaso- line. Blended fuels would provide an enormous potential supply of alcohol at gasoline prices for the bootlegging trade, if the bills which the governor has opposed were to become law, MT Levine says. Blending alcohol with gaso- l'ne will blend liquor bootlegging

The campaign for the signing of pledge cards for Waterbury's new Mutual Aid Unemployment Fund drive maintained high speed proportions today. Seven new firms were added to the honor roll up to noon and it was expected that many more would report 100 per cent success during the afternoon.
 The seven firms reported today as having turned in their pledge cards by Charles J. Allen, drive director, are the Lux Clock Com pany, J. F. Smith and Company, General Manufacturing Company, Swift and Company, Clark Broth CTS Company, The Lux Laundry and the Waterbury Steam Laun- dry.
 MT Allen took occasion today to give credit to Charles A. Babin or the Waterbury Steam Laundry, whom he said has done a fine Jop in getting the employees of laun- dries throughout the city to pledge support to the fund.
 All pledge cards are supposed to be in MT Aliens hands by next Monday morning and he urged all, who have not signed cards to do so at once. He reported that those in charge of collecting the cards in the city's largest factories nave about completed their work ana that their cards will soon be in his hands. All reports indicate. MT Allen asserts, that the factory employees will be practically 100 per cent enrolled behind the fund in this drive as they have been since the fund started. AS has been the custom these fac tories will again contribute dol lar for every dollar contributed by their employees.
 MT Allen again today made an appeal to the people of Waterbury to turn their discarded jewelry over to the Mutual Aid Fund; Stressing the need of additional funds to adequately take care or the demands for food and em- ployment on the part of the city's unemployed, the drive chairman stated that if persons will only bring in their discarded watches, stickpins, silver goblets, etc, etc. the fund will be given a big boos-.
