there has been no word to the ef- feet the drive will close at the end of the week.
 More food and clothing was sent to Hartford today and it is expected another shipment will go out some time tomorrow.
 In reviewing the drive for funds, now in it's l4th day, Mrs. Ladd said this morning the campaign here was the same as any other. "An ap- peal for funds" she said, needs the proper impetus at the start or 1t will not be successful. We owe the success of the present drive to a radio program conducted by Sta ton WATR, managed by George Duffy, Friday night, March 20. It was this program, on the first night of the drive, I feel is the thing which really got us started"

Your Baby's Health
Quiet, Darkness, Comfort, Fresh Air
 Important For Baby's Sleep

living in modern city apartments to put the baby outside, the best substitute is to put him, dressed as if he were going out, in his car riage in front of an open window. Then the door of the room should be closed to prevent direct breeze or draft from blowing over the baby's head.
 If the weather is very cold, some cold cream may be rubbed on the face of the baby before 1t is taken outside, to prevent chapping. There is little to be gained if the baby is put outdoors, swaddled in heavy clothing, and its face covered with a veil.
 A veil over the baby's face keeps out the beneficial rays of light and keeps in the moisture from breath ing. Under such conditions, the child soon becomes damp and un- comfortable.
 Among other causes of disor- dered sleep is obstruction of the nose by adenoids, infection, or a cold. Obviously, these conditions will prevent a child from sleeping, and certainly should be called to the prompt attention of a doctor.

 Rock Garden

How charming a rock garden can be-nestling against the foundation of your house. Now's grand time to start one--when vacation gives you helping hands.

Fill the gar- den this first summer with cacti, fastspreading sedums and semper- vivuins, which aren't fussy about growing conditions. Set low-grow- ing plants in front-never tall ones. The rocks settle the first winter, ready for permanent planting in the spring.
 YouIl love this fascinating garden artl Our 32-page booklet tells how to get enchanting effects with rocks and lovely, easy-to-raise plants, in sun or shade. Step-by-step direc- tions for simple lily pools, too.

morning although she was on deck when the passengers left the boat at 10 o'clock to take the tender that would carry them to the boat train. She stood by the railing, watching the little boat go away into Q gay morning, advancing steadily among the fishing tugs with their battered sails of red and blue and yellow.
 Phil was on that boat, and a girl named Camilla would meet him when he reached the low green coast. odd, Marcia unused, that she didn't know how Camilla looked. She hoped that the other girl wouldn't bring her Austrian count to the boat. That would be lnkind. Almost, Marcia could see the narrowing of the blue eyes, the tightening of the muscles in a lean, tanned face. Phil would say little. He would be sanctuary to some woman - but he would love a woman, quite probably, who did not seek sanctuary. Life was that way.
 
 By the time the boat went up the coast to Southampton, where she was disembarking, Marcia was be- ginning to feel excited. She went through customs, chatted with fel- low passengers on the boat train, went to Claridge'S where rooms had been engaged by her father = and sat down. She was alone. She had not minded being alone a few months ago. That was before she had found Boh-before she had charted the rest of the way with him. Now she thought of him as she

NOISE IS NEEDLESS
 STRAIN ON MOTHERS
BY OllYe ROberts Barton

Something in summer air gives Q gratifying quality. And heat except to Q scattered few, has an irritat- ing effect on nerves. Nervous people raise their voices; thus we have a formula for bedlam.
 The radio adds to the general din, and to outShout it the children do stunts with their vocal chords. Even baby learns to express himself above the general ruckus about him.
 I feveryone's happy about such a state of affairs and likes it that way, the shout-sIam-bang day of a happy family, I'm not going to spoil any fun. But on one of our recent Dutch-oven spells, I beheld a young mother having near-hys- terics.
 Noise Trays Nerves
 If I had stayed, I'd have been biting people myself. So I cleared out. She is young and she has to learn that 1t is boise that does things to her.
 Sometime she will discover, I think, that a radio tuned on fifteen hours a day is no bromide. Also that telephone and doorbell are entirely too loud to put up with, when they amount to gunshock each time they ring, as hers do; that a bit of rubber glued to the screen door edges muffles the bangs and still keeps the flies out; that 1t is Q simple thing to reduce the chatter in the kitchen by showing her mothers helper how to set pans down without initiating a jazz band.
 Then too, this over-strained mother may learn to talk less her. self and, when she does, lower her voice to somewhere around middle e" and keep 1t there.
 Won't she have to admonish the children, too? Isn't 1t the young sters who make the most racket after ali? This is in your mind, of course.
 No Need to Scream Oh, yes indeed. They don't have to screech when they want a drink. They certainly must learn to talk in 8 moderate tone. Raising voices constantly is 8 bad habit. But chil- dren react amazingly to the quiet atmosphere of @ house. The normal voiced mother and her controlled personality rchects itself in their whole beha" or. If she is not ner- vous, they won't go to extremes.
 On hot days, light, too, plays @ part. Darkened rooms are sooth- ing. Order is a balm. One can- not keep things perfect where growing children live, but with their cooperation 8 certain effect may be attained.
 Things never work out by book, of course. Baby will yell when he wakes up, Kitty scream that Jimmy has hit her, and Tommy tease the dog to make him bark. There will be noise enough. But those mothers who find themselves suddenly an- nouncing that they're going mad, might prevent a relapse if they re- duce house-sounds to 8 minimum. Copyright, 1936, NEA Service, Incl

 Authorities agree that the amount of sleep you get and the kind oa food you eat have more to do with your beauty than most women seem to realize. You can't look your best if you don't feel well. You can't feel well if you always are in need of more sleep or if your diet lacks important properties.
 For clear skin. free from blefn- ishes and sallow tones, everyone should consune plenty of green vegetables and green salads. Water cress, spinach, prtines and raisinS are rich in iron. Eat these regu- larly. Iron makes your complexion clear and gives you natural color.
 Add to these Q variety of dark green, leafy vegetables, such as broccoli, also cucumbers, straw berries, figs, asparagus, apples, cel- cry, cabbage, onions, radishes, tur- nips, carrots, parsnips, and the con- dition of your hair as well aS your skin, will improve.
 Lack of calcium often leads to defective teeth. Drink 8 quart of milk every day for month--a pint e day from then on-and watch your teeth, nails and complexion improve. When you feel hungry between meals, drink milk, butter milk, tomato or fruit juices instead of appeasing your appetite with sandwiches or starchy foods.
 If, in spite of well balanced menus that include practically alk of the above mentioned items, you still have bad skin, dull hair or brittle nails, see your family doc. tor. Perhaps your body continues to lack something. Or 1t may be that you should eliminate certain items which are good for almost everyone, but bad for you. Whatever you do, don't under-e estimate the importance of proper diet. Many skin problems of women of All ages are due to incorrect food.

For babies, as for grownups, the conditions of sleep make a great deal of difference. Everybody knows that two factors most necessary for sound sleep-darkness and quiet are exceedingly hard to achieve in our modern times.
 Use of artificial light has become 50 universal that 1t is exceedingly difacult to find places to sleep in which there is complete darkness Even tiny rays of light may be sufficient to serve as a stimulus to awaken sleeper.
 It is even more difficult to se- cure quiet. We have one motor car for every four or five people, and at least one radi ofor every family. This means plenty Of noise.
 In the large cities, the rattle of street cars and the roar of rail- road and elevated trains all serve to make sleep difficult, even for those who can easily adapt them selves to disturbances.
 One specialist has even recom- mended the use of nightcaps, to serve the double purpose of Keep ing the head warm and shutting out noise.
 The mattress on which the baby sleeps should be firm, but soft enough to be comfortable. The baby should be covered lightly, but well enough to be warm.
 4. The clothing should be suff- ciently loose to permit the baby to move freely, but tight enough to keep the child from falling out of bed or getting into trouble. Pil- lows usually are unnecessary for small babies,
 ' If the baby's feet become cold, If it is not warm enough, if there is too much clothing, or if there is 2 lack of fresh air in the bedroom, 1. the baby's sleep will be disturbed. Most mothers now know that babies ought to have fresh air, but z few of them know just how much fresh air the baby should have, [ and for that matter, may have no idea of what constitutes fresh air. Al
 Babies ought to be put outdoors : Co sleep at as early as two weeks ine age, if born in the summer mcnths:; if born in the winter months, they should be taken out side at six weeks of age.

Paris Styles
By MARY FENTRESS

United Press Stan COrreSp0ndent)
 Paris (UP)-Short hair is here to stay, according to Monsieur Denis, director of Eugene's, one of Paris best known hairdressing establish ments.
 The. modern woman is too fond of sports and is too active to be willing to put up with the incon- venience of long hair, he explains. In addition, short hair provides in- finitely more resources for change of hair styles.
 Styles in cultures follow the old adage that there is nothing new under the sun, says Monsieur Denis. The present trend, he points out, follows classic hairdressing styles of the past. Two years ago, when flow ing Grecian robes came into style, women's hair was dressed to coin- eide with small sculptured curls placed closely over the head.
 The most recent trend has been to mimic the styles in the day of Queen Margot. This style was brought about following the tremen- dous success on the Paris stage of the play "Margot" and its subse- quent influence on feminine fash ions.
 This hair expert has created a new coiffure which has become pop ular here. He combs the hair back from the forehead in two fiat rolls across the top of the head. The side hair, similarly, is brushed backward and rolled loosely, while the hair at the nape of the neck is turned up into two rolls of loose curls.

 There was no letter from Bob, though. She found 6 message from the Parts representative of her fathers firm, and because she was lonely, she called him at once. He was elderly, staid.

 Our dear friend the late Will Rog- CTS, at a Oh m b CT of Commerce meeting, here in Juneau, spoke vol tunes when he said they were all making more money but they hated to have to make it under the Demo- crats. The money barons are the ones who are wailing. Of course we hear peep or two out of the deposei Republican office holders but no one pays much attention to them.
 Why are the money changers wailing when they are reaping the fruits of the new deal? It is because they can see that by 1937 the colln- try will be beck on it's feet with everybody making money and they know they cannot harvest that new crop of wealth unless they have con- trol of the Government.
