Perhaps you do not know that the babies you know of as Annette, Yvonne, Cecile, Emelie and Marie really have three names besides Dionne. Each is named for her godmother and each also is named
 Mary for the Blessed Virgin.
 On the occasion of the Christening, they were dressed in their best white embroidered
 madeira frocks and were carried,
 each one by her white-gowned
 godmother. through a ceremony
 that lasted for an hour and a
 half.
 Christmas shared with their
 little sisters and brothers was a
 great festival with the babies
 because of the bright lights and
 tinsel on the Christmas tree.
 They were just beginning to mo- tice such things and they reached
 out their little arms to the lights
 on the trees with such endearing gestures that you felt as if you
 wanted to give them the moon. I was ever entranced by the incomparably graceful and en- dearing movements of their pink tipped fingers and hands, trying to grasp a new toy. exploring the tabletop or our faces or the sur face of their brightly colored quilts with absorbed interest. Or

 The progress of the babies after we moved to their new home was phenomenal. As soon as the little girls were sufficiently acclimatized to the new surroundings we started sun treatments. A sort of box ble had been built with an Nupstanding ledge of seven or eight inches run ming along the edges. The bottom was well padded and 1t was placed by a window paned with glass al- lowing blue ultra violet rays of the sun to penetrate. On this the babies at first passed almost all their walk ing hours. To see the five, sprawl- ing about and learning to move in their new airy freedom, reminded us all of little birds in nest.
 The indoor sun treatments were part of Dr. Dafoe's cautious regime of conditioning the babies, of build ing their resistance against ans fur ther onslaught of disease or infec- tion. Also we began to take them outside, well tucked in among soft blankets.
 At first we kept them out ten minutes. then fifteen, and went on increasing the time by five minutes each day until they were used to sleeping outside two or three hours every day, whatever the weather. A generous friend sent us five beautiful draught- free carriages. In these we could | safely take the little girls out all during the winter. They had their outdoor maps even in tenn peratures as low as twenty de- grees below zero. Danger of frost bite was eliminated by careful ap- plication of protective creams and oils to the little faces.

characteristics as have observed them over their first year of life. h think it Is absurd to try to pre- dict what they will become from . what they are now. Nevertheless, while wish to avoid extravagant statements, each little girl is a definitely-nnarked individuai--with characteristics all her own. have often been asked if any one is my favorite. I answer that the last of those babies you pick up is your favorite, but perhaps I picked up oftenest Annette and Emelie. I do not know why the law of attraction, suppose.
 Annette is never afraid of any, thing, not even of new things to do. She is interested in every- thing and likes Innovations. She is also intensely interested in the effect on others of what she does. I should say that she is the most coy of all the babies as well as the prettiest.
 Yvonne is the imp of the fam | fly. She was .the first to learn to wrinkle her nose and once she had found new trick, she would practice 1t all by herself. She is initiative, too. Make a face at her and she will make one back at you. She is one of the most energetic of the babies. What ever she does is done with all her might, from tantrums to pat-a- cakes.
 Cecile is the quiet. peaceful one. If any of these non-crying babies can be said to have cried leven less than the others, she is that one. Even when she is sick, she doesn't cry. Cecile is ab- sorbed in problems which she is always trying to work out. AL most the most upset she ever got was when she couldn't pick the red roses off her quilt. She likes to study thing and follow 1t through.
 Emelie is extremely lively and always wants to do what the oth- CTS are doing. She is certainly the athlete of the crowd, very active and fast in her movements. She never needs more than the merest invitation to play. She screams with laughter at the very suggestion of frolic.
 It has been said that Marie is the madonna. This is truer than many of the things that have been said about the babies. Marie is the aloof one. She never fol- lows suit readily but does every thing in her own good time. She is rather imperious and wants what she wants when she wants it. She is contemplative by na- ture and will occupy herself for hours simply looking at bright lights or bright objects. To make her laugh and frolic was a hard job but We succeeded in doing 1t.

EACH year, on June 10, the peo- I pie of Portugal honor their great epic poet. Luis Vaz de Camoens. So famous is this man that, in 1924, Portugal issued a set of seven picturesque stamps commemorating the fourth cen tennial of his birth, and depicting important elements in his career Great as Camoens was as a poet, he also is known in history as lover. fighter. adventurer. and soldier. Involved in brawl with a court official. over the love of a lady of the court. he was ban ished from Portugal for a time. He went to Africa. and there. in a battle at Ceuta, he lost an eye.

Lacked Needed Equipment

All of this progress was made under rather primitive conditions at first. When we moved, we had no beds or bedding (except for the babies), almost no cook ing utensils and worst of all no washing machine and no clothes lines. yet a daily washing of two hundred pieces. The Dionnes kindly loaned us their washing machine for the first few days un- til our new one came, but 1t was a month before we had adequate clotheslines. Imagine the ,chore of the housekeeper who had to carry out basketsful of wet dia- apers and hang them on ropes temporarily put up between trees, fences and unsteady poles. Her patience was more than once taxed to the limit when a beauti- full white washing was dashed to the ground by a sudden gust of wind.
 Little by little, however, equip- ment came in. Presents contin- ued to come, too, for the babies. Every item, large or small, was carefully listed in the thick gift book of the Dafoe hospital, to- gether with the name and ad- dress of the donor. Many articles which could not be used by the babies were given over to the parents for the use and amuse- ment of the other children across the road. All the worn-out and outgrown clothes of the babies were carefully put away in moth- balls in large boxes as souvenirs for the mother.
 One of the most interesting social events in our new home was the babies official christen- ing in October of their first year. This was attended by their par cnts, their sisters and brothers.
