Despite the hardships their
missionaries undergo in Ethiopia,
Seventh Day Adventists are nego-
tiating for establishment of an
additional hospital in the war
torn territory of Halle SelaSsie. it
was revealed at headquarters here
yesterday.
Already in possession of four
important medical centers which
'have brought health and happi-
ness to the natives" the Seventh
Day Adventists have been asked
by Ethiopian leaders to accept
still another. Two Of the four
hospitals established by the in
ternationally known religious
group are gifts Of Emperor Sc

FIRE SW EEPS
AID STATION

An electric iron, careleSSly left
connected, was blamed by firemen
today for hree-alarm blaze which
swept through District relief
station at 1926 U st. N. W., shortly
after 2 o'clock this morning.
Before firemen could extinguish
the stubborn flames the two upper
floors of the three-story brick
structure had been gutted. The
relief unit, Station 3, occupies the
two floors. The first floor is oc-
cupied by the Cook Composition
Company, printing firm. Water
and smoke damage to the printing
shop was heavy.
Bernard Killmer, 715 Quincy
st. N. W., watchman, who dis
covered the fire and sounded the
first alarm, said he believed the
fire started in front room on the
third floor. In this room firemen
said they found the connected
electric iron.
Damage to the building and its
contents had not been estimated

PUNISHMENTS
FORM NEEDED
PHASE OF LIFE.
Only Reason for Penalty Is
to Avoid Repetition of
OffenSe.

There is only one good reason to
punish a child. That is to make
him understand that he must not
do the naughty thing again.
But before you punish, make sure
that what he was doing is really
naughty. 1t is not naughty for a
child to be noisy. 1t is not naughty
for him to want to move about. 1t
is not naughty for him to want to
get hold of things.
Some punishments are better than
others. A wise mother does not need
to spank her child often. She does
not shut him in a closet. She does
not scream at him or scold. She
does not keep him from outdoor
play.
She knows better ways than that.
She may send him into his room
and shut the door and let him stay
there alone. She will send him to
bed if he is tired. She may pay no
dGCSIlU1OI W Il1IIl. Die Inlay IS1uS
to let him have some pleasure or
treat. Those are better ways of
punishment.
Children can understand that they
must be punished when they are
naughty. They know when pun
ishment is fair.
They know it is fair to play alone,
if they have been teasing other
children.
They know it is fair not to have
new toy when they have been care
less with the old one and broken it.
They know it is fair not to be
given dessert when they have not
eaten their vegetables.
They know it is fair not to be al
lowed to go to town with mother if
they have not stopped playing in
time to get ready.
They do not like these punish
ments of course, but they do know
that they are fair.

BIG MUSCLES SHOULD
BE DEVELOPED FIRST
Finer Hand Movements Should
Come Later for Baby.

Let the child use his big muscles
as much as he will in romping and
doing simple things, but do not try
to train his smaller muscles until
later when the big ones have grown
strong and skillful.
A child may be prepared to learn
the finer hand movements by first
learning the coarSer ones. Let him
first learn to hold a cup, then to
handle a spoon and fork, then to
unbutton and button his clothes, to
unlace and lace his shoes, then to
string buttons and beads.

BABY'S CHART
SHOULD RECORD
MANY DRAMAS
First Tooth, First Step
and First Word Are
MiIeStOneS.

The baby's first tooth, first step
and first word are hailed with an
excited entry in the baby book. But
there are other less dramatic mile
stones for which a mother watches.
Here's a chart for the average
baby's progress. Since no mother
would admit that her child is mere
ly average" she need not be alarmed
if the baby doest fit this chart eX-
actly.
Two to four months-holds up
head.
Three to five months-laughs
freely.
Five to seven monthS-reacheS for
and holds toy.
Six months-teeth begin to appear.
Seven to nine months-sits alone.
Ten to II monthS-StandS.
Twelve mOnthS-SayS few single
words.
Eighteen to "a months-says short
sentences of two or z.lore words.
Eighteen mOnthS-abOut II teeth.
Two yearS-16 teeth.
Two and one-half years-20 teeth.
One of the surest ways to keep up
with the baby's progress is by weigh
ing him every week at the doctors
Office or on home scales which are
known to be accurate.
There is a good deal of variation
in children's development, SO this
table of gains can be only general
average.
From one to three months of age,
the baby is expected to gain five to
eight ounces a week.

Let Him Battle Self

The child should learn as early

So great was the rush that police

SPOT
HASCHARMS
GALORE
BY LARRY WILLIAMS

The very thought Of the in
tensity of the heat in the sur
rounding cities fills the vaca-
tionists at Colonial Beach with
sympathy for their less-fortunate
fellowmen. True, we have no ice
bergs cluttering up the stately
Potomac, nor is there any scarcity
of stoves.
We are not bothered by daily
billiards., nor do the summer
guests find it necessary to get
their winter clothing out OF
storage. AS q matter Of fact. the
thermometer climbs high. To be
even more accurate, we are having
our share of dog days" But
and upon this the story depends
we have our consultations.
Cool Costumes
During the day it is a rarity to
see our patrons in any but the
coolest and most comfortable OF
costumes.
Of course, bathing suits are by
far the most popular as the cool
greenness of the salt water makes
one forget even the possibility OF
a heat wave as unpleasant as this
one,
The beach is crowded with
visitors who have discovered this
fact and who daily make us Of 1t.
For tennis, there are all kinds
Of shorts, practical and gay and
air-conditioned.
And, for general wear, there are
outfits as colorful and as varied
as the individuals who wear them.
But all of them cool and com
fortable-and that, you wearers
of coats and collars and hats and
gloves-that, you must admit, is
something!
And, at night, there is the
frosty whiteness of the full moon
reflected thousand times in the
black ripples of the river.
And anyone who cannot forget
the heat with all that to look at,
and the music from the two or.
chestraS and the broadcast sta
ton going out over the river, is
entirely beyond any assistance.
The concessions, all of which are
on the waterfront, afford easy
access to the river breezes and
offer diversion besides.
Join Us Here
Enthusiastic merchants are
planning for the Labor Day
crowd.
Enthusiastic equestrians refuse
to be daunted by the heat and
the horses from the riding
academy are out almost con-
Stantly. The local motion picture
offers an almost daily change of
program.
So, you see, we are hot down
here but we forget about it most
of the time because we are so
busy doing the things we most
| like to do.

NEW YORK, Aug. Is U.N.S0.
Social life among the foreigners
living in Adds Ababa has come
to an abrupt end.
Horse races, polo games, tennis
matches, dinner parties, picnics
which go to make up a pleasant
existence among the diplomatic
set and business representatives
in that delightful city have
stopped.
Because of threats Of war with
Italy; the ever.growing number
of unfortunate incidents and
atrocities against foreigners in
various districts in Ethiopia; the
danger of food supplies being
cut off; the influx of half-dis-
ciplined feudal chiefs and their
thousands of retainers into the
capital, foreign women and chill
dren are leaving Adds Ababa
as fast as the uncertain trains
will take them.
Many have had to wait for pas
sage on the crowded boats going
to Europe for several weeks as
hundreds of wealthy native fam
lilies are leaving the country as
well.
Rains Slow Up Travel
The torrential rains are current
and this always makes travel
from the interior difficult.
Adds Ababa reminds one Of a
Southern California foothill city
in many ways, and in peace times
is a delightful place in which to
live.
With its purple mountains, eu'
calyptus trees, bougainyilla COW
cred white homes, pleasant Gil
mate together with its colorful ma
tive bazars, pageantry of court
life and international features it
has a distinct appeal.
Dinner parties in Adds Ababa
are most formal a11alrS.
An ordinary dinner means
dinner jacket, while a diplomatic
function requires long tails and
all the buttons and badges and
stripes and ribbons a man can
muster. The farther they extend
across the chest the better.
The women wear lovely gowns
from Paris and are very smart.
There is champagne and many
many courses and marvellous serv'
ice.
Motor Cars Are Few

cars, and there are only some 500
odd cars in Adds Ababa today,
