Corbeil, Ont, Aug. 7-Oliya Di- onne settles himeslf into the buggy, Shakes the reins, and is on his way to Ca1lander.
 It is early morning, but Dionne's house is already a-bustle, full of a purposeful and efficient stirring. Dionne has to meet the morning train at Callander-it is bringing him a consignment.
 Dionne is the father of the most famous babies in the world, the quintuplets whose birth on the night of last May 28 drew the sym- pathetic eyes of the world to Cor bell. And the precious freight that is coming to Callander is a gallon of natural mothers milk, shipped in special containers from hospitals in Chicago, Toronto and Montreal. World Sends Gifts
 When he has received the con- tainers, Dionne drives back over the rough road to Corbeil, two and a half miles, to find the day in full; swing for his five tiny daughters.
 Here, in what had been a plain frame four-room cottage on the edge of the wooded wilderness, is a veritable children's hospital, cre- ated overnight by the kindly inter- es of neighbors, the Red Cross, the Canadian government, and the gifts and encouragement of a world that has seen wonder and wanted to help the somewhat bewildered and simple people through whom it came. @
 From dawn to dusk, and often far into the night, hard-working nurses and concerned doctors bus tie about. Dr A. +. Dafoe, the "old- fashioned country doctor" whose skill, devotion and practi- cal wisdom brought the quintuplets safely through the unlikely chance here.
 He will be back again at evening. Twice each day he comes to attend the tiny-girl-children whose sur. vival Is modern miracle.
 Each One in Incubator
 The babies lie in a spare room off the kitchen, each in her wood en, glass-covered individual incu- ! bator. Every morning at eight they are taken from the incubators and given an oil bath, the oil gently swabbed on skin that it too tender to stand soap and water. The beds in the incubators are given com plete change.
 Every three hours the babies are fed with dropper equipped with a rubber nipple on the end. The nurses gently force the feeding if the babies do not take the pre- scribed amount of warm mothers milk which constitutes their ration every "A hours. The troopers are like an eye-dropper, but with a barrel about the size of banana. Mostly, the quintuplets sleep. For 16 or IT hours of the 24, they sim- ply sleep. Even now, after moro than two months of life, they are

mai health after several terrifying relapses, and today goes about her usual household tasks. The bur- den of caring for the famous babies largely has been lifted from the parents by the volunteer services of neighbors and well-wishers all over North America, but the Ca- nadian Red Cross and by the Ca- nadian government itself.
 Red Cross Pays Bills l
 The Red Cross has assumed the cost of food, medical attention and clothing for at least two years longer if necessary. The Ontario provincial government has named four official guardians for the tiny girls for two years-lifting from the father the burden of business proposals and arrangements that have flooded the cottage.
 The Red Cross even plans to build a small hospital structure near the Dionne home, fully equipped with the most modern children's hospital equipment, and its own power plant to provide heat and light, neither of which Is available in the present Dionne home. Once removed to such q special building, better and more orderly care could be assured the quintuplets, and life could get back to something like normal in the Dionne home, where five old CT brothers and sisters of the quintuplets must not be forgotten. A sixth child died.
 Guardians Appointed
 The appointment of guardians for the quintuplets was a step talk en by the government to relieve Dionne from business negotiations to which he was not accustomed, and to prevent any contracts pro- viding public appearances or other demands on the babies that might have endangered their safety.
 British common law sets up a principle that the king is nomin- ally the father of all his subjects, and that therefore his representa- tives can step in to safeguard in fatherly capacity the interests of any subject which might be threatened. Thus, Father Dionne consenting, the provincial attorney. general named four official guardi- ans with full responsibility for the babies and full authority to nego- ttate for them. This step took from Dionne's shoulders the horde of promoters and proposals that flooded down upon him.
 The four official guardians are: Oliver Dionne, father of Oliva and grandfather of the quintuplets, Dr. Dafoe, who brought them into the world, Kenenth Morrison, 8 Callan- der merchant who has known the Dionnes all his life, and w. H.

ODE TO A CRICKET

Of what do you sing So gayly each night? Is it good tidings you bring For your song is so bright? Surely you must chirp With some reason in mind. Come, translate that chirp For wondering mankind. Or do you but croon A song without words? Alone meath the moon Taking the place of the birds. Who long since have gone To their feathery nests. Leaving you to go on Till the whole world rests. Whate'er you endeavor Not a thing do you lack. Your program is clever Oh minstrel in black.

 Several very direct appeals have been made during the past week or two and only a few concrete returns have been received. II appears to us that the move' de- serves better consideration by the public as a whole, than what 1t has already received.
