COLD WEATHER GOING TO STICK
 ALONG WITH US
Reports Say That There Will Be Still Colder
 Weather Tonight

Severe cold weather continued to hold the city within it's grip today. Auto traffic was very light through out the morning and early after noon and pedestrians ambled along bundled up heavily in an effort to avoid the wintry blasts as much as possible.
 At midnight, last night, the Democrats recording thermometer showed the mercury to be ten de- grees above zero. At noon today, the reading was above. The low est reading was at 10 o'clock this morning, the mercury being seven degrees above the zero mark.
 Many automobiles were frozen up, giving added work to garage men. Plumbers and fuel dealers were also kept on the go today as calls came in from householders and business buildings in all sec tions of the city.
 The weather man promised no let-up in the cold snap for tonight or tomorrow. However. there were hopes expressed that the temper ature would be milder tomorrow despite the weatherman's predic- tions.
 Thermometers in unprotected spots this morning showed read- ings as low as two degrees above zero. In outlying districts resi- dents reported that the mercury went bleow the zero mark. Troll ley cars and busses were patron ized to a great extent today by ordinary walkers or auto owners who decided to leave their vehicles at home.
 Superintendent of Water Thomas J. Fleming stated today that his department is keeping constant check up on weather conditions so as to have emergency crews ready at moments notice should me- ters burst or the pumping stations become crippled because of the intense cold.

ed in the morning indicates that
he needs all the sleep he is getting.
Many parents have discovered, this
winter, that listening to exciting
radio programs at night, following
a thrilling serial dn the movies or
newspapers, has interfered serious
ly with the children's sleep. There
was published this year an inter-
esting and comprehensive study
book entitled, "Our Movie Made
Children" published by the Mac
milan Co., 1888. Henry James For
man, author. It was distracted
serially in McCall's Magazine last
year.
For an easily excitable child, any
stimulus to emotions, such as hur-
ry and confusion, anger, leaving the
hardest homework for the last, or
exciting reading, Is undesirable,
but reading a very carefully chosen
book for a while after going to
bed often helps such children to
fall asleep more readily.
Other measures that parents have
found Of help are: a relaxing, tepid
bath just at bedtime (the skin to
be patted dry instead Of rubbed, so
that circulation will not be stimu-
lated); warm milk or some light
food just before going to bed II It

possible. On cool summer even
ings, when the intense heat Of the
day is apt to be still lingering in
the child's room, even the fodder
may stay up beyond his usual bed
thine to enjoy the general cooling
Off process.
Sometimes we think It takes long
er for our child to go to sleep than
1t really does. If we take notes
each evening for week or two
weeks on how long 1t takes him to
go Off to sleep, we will have an
actual record to compare with
those made by psychologists on a
great many children.
Often parents have the notion
that a healthy child drops to sleep
the moment his head touches the
pillow. But the study of children's

Masters and two members of Troop
rs are members OF Co. M. and went
with the company when 1t was call
ed out last week. The Scouts were
further represented in the person

who is Captain Of Co. M and who
we understand served as battalion
commander during the time the
Guards were on strike duty.
Cub Pack No.
Our Cub Pack is continuing to
show the same old pep and en-
thusiasn and are keeping things
humming In clubbing circles. There
are twelve achievements in clubbing
that form the hurdles that all good
cubs seek to pass. When five Of
these achievements are passed the
cub received a pin. To date our
Cub pack has six Of these pins
which goes to show that these
cubs are not asleep on the job.
Pack meetings are held every
other week under leadership Of Cub
Master Butler. On the weeks be-
tween, den meetings are held under
the leadership Of the den leaders.
After school let's out it Is planned
to hold pack meeting only once a
month during the summer.
The big event right now that
every Cub Is looking forward to, Is
the big overnight hike which will
be held next month. Only cubs who
have passed ten achievements will
be eligible to go on this hike and
needless to say, things are sure
humming around the Cub camp.
The way 1t looks right now, there
won't be very many Cubs left In
town that day.
Last week the Cubs enjoyed a
short hike out to the old tourist
park. Games were played and
some Of the Cubs passed their
achievements. A. good time was
enjoyed by all and many more Of
these hikes are looked forward to.
A few of the Cubs have uniforms
and some have part Of their uni
form. The rule is that each cub
must earn money for his uniform
and with this depression on, the
cubs are having their troubles as
well as the business men and
farmers. It Is a most commendable
project and we certainly hope the
cubs will find some way Of getting
around the hard times and getting
the necessary nickels and dimes to
buy uniforms.

Don't some children require less
sleep than others" mother writes.
1.-THE school tells US that a child In
such-and-such a grade should be in
bed at such-and-such an hour, but
what If the child can't go to sleepi"
my twelve-year-old son goes to
bed at nine o'clock regularly, but it
Is an hour, sometimes two, before
he gets to sleep. I have recently
had him examined by a physician
who says he is in excellent physical
condition; he advanced at school,
he eats well, and has no trouble
that I know of. Shall I let him
stay up until 10 or 1880? In the
morning I always have to waken
him."
Children's sleep needs do vary
greatly, even in their preschool
years, and sometimes, ID q child
awakens early mornings or takes
long maps in the daytime, 1t might
be advisable to allow him to stay
up a bit later at night. But we
would want to make sure first that
he was In good physical condition,
and that there was nothing worry
ing him.
The fact that the twelve-year old
boy Is still sleepy when he is rous.
