For years the Valley In general and Port Isabel in
particular have hoped for q causeway connecting the
mainland with Padre Island.
advantages Of such q causeway are numerous and
wei realized by the entire Valley section.
The rub has been, as Is usually the case In such
matters, the matter OF financing the construction. At
various times 1t has appeared that individuals or cor
porations had succeeded In making the grade, and
that actual construction Of the causeway was assured.
But sooner or later all plans have failed. and the
eausewhy Is still very much on paper.
Latest move for its construction, the sponsorship
OF the proposal by the city Of Port Isabel, would ap-
pear to be q most sensible proposal. one that should
bring about success in the undertaking. II there is
any possibility at all OF getting the causeway.
Mayor George Seaman and his city officials may
be sure that the Valley at large will do what It can
do to help further the undertaking. Probably the
support that can be given by the Valley will Of neces-
sty be mostly Of the moral" kind. but such as It Is
and for the good II viii do. Port Isabel may be as
sured that the Valleys help Is available when called
for.
We all want to get TO Padre Island and we are all
willing to DO what we can to further our own in
terests.

Away back in 1874 the legislators OF Pennsylvania
passed q law providing fines or Jail sentences for per-
sons found guilty Of using profanity.
Trials and convictions under this ancient statute
are rare. but the law Is stIll on the books: and q few
days ago G Pennsylvania woman was hailed before
q justice Of the peace IN the town OF Trevorton and
sent to jail for II hours after pleading guilty 70 a
violation Of the law.
Now the interesting thing about this revival Of an
old blue law Is the fact that the complaint against
this woman was brought by her own daughter. The
fact that Pennsylvania keeps the law on its books is
odd enough: but odder yet Is the fact that there Is
In existence o woman whose conception OF her duty
Is 30 twisted that she would have the law applied
against her own mother.

In justice to the people Of that territory who have

Perhaps the president thought this
was q delicate way to warn the pri-
vate utilities that he wants their
scalps. But he was really making
up for a blunder OF his own. though
he was unconscious or 1t at the time.
Danville had agreed TO borrow PWA
funds at a time when the government
gave only 30 per cent OF the total cost
and loaned 10 per cent. But on the
day that Danville voted on issuing
bonds for the project. Mr. Roosevelt
announced the new arrangement for
grants OF 45 per cent. Naturally the
voters defeated the less favorable
proposition

Babies feel the heat more than do grown-ups. In
the first place, the childs heat regulating apparatus
Is not as well developed rs that Of the adult. Be
sides children are more active than are grown peo-
pie. and SO they generate more heat.
Summer, therefore, brings about special child prob
lens which demand careful consideration BY every
mother.
Every child should have a bath each day. II the
bath Is given In the morning. a lukewarm sponge
may be given again In the afternoon. II the child
complains Of irritation Of the skin. 1t may also be
given a sponge before it is put to bed for the night.
During the summer clothing should be light rs pos
sible. Food must be watched for evidence OF spoil
age, and milk must be kept cold q tall times.
II ice is not available the milk bottles should be
wrapped in q damp cloth and put in water on q
shady window ledge. The water will evaporate from
the cloth and this viii serve to keep the milk cold.
If there is any question at all about the safety Of
the milk. 1t should be boiled.
Insects are a nuisance and can cause a good deal OF
irritation to the child. They should be prevented
from coming in contact with the child by the use Of
mosquito netting and screening.
Everyone knows now that sunshine Is OF greatest
Importance for the child. Therefore sun bathing has
come into vogue. However, overexposure to the sun
may be harmful.
The sunbaths may begin when the child Is quite
young-perhaps at the end OF the second month.
The child should be exposed for Just a few minutes
at first and then as the skin becomes somewhat used
to the rays OF the sun. the length OF the exposure may
be increased.
Like good toast" says one doctor, you brown
them but never burn them"
After the baby has had its bath. It may be placed
on a blanket or In a bed near an open window so
that the sun viii fall directly on its body. The eyes
should be protected.
At first an exposure Of one minute on the chest
and one minute on the back is This
time may be heightened by one-half minute for
each side Of the body every day.
If the sunbaths are started in winter, the exposure
Is made in a different manner. First just the legs to
the knees are exposed for five minutes. Later the
thighs may be exposed and still later the rest Of
the body.
Sunlight which passes through ordinary vim
dow glass does not contain the beneficial ultraviolet
rays. Therefore. in sunbathing the suns rays should
reach the child without interference.
