 Your Children
By Ollve ROberts barton

I have . problem to solve today for one worried mother. It occurs to me that might think 1t out in this column. Perhaps other mothers with 3 or 4-year-olds who can't sleep may be interested.
 It appears that oil ordinary methods of beguiling the eand~ man have been tried in her case. But Dolly, or Lucille (the child's name was not given) still pulls the stufing out of her doll or talks to herself in bed for hours i after she should have crossed the borderline of Nod.
 The doctor says she "should" sleep, and finding nothing wrong physically has let it 90 at that. But Dolly's motHfer feels that there must be another answer, and think there is.
 Exercises May Be at Feult
 First of all, this little girl may not be getting enough exercise. If this sounds like an old story, let me say that there is & big differ ence in the amount of exercise 1t takes to tire certain children. The strong, active type of child can do twice as much as the more sensitive one, and still not be physically tired. I say sensitive" rather than "weak," because dis- position has . great deal to do with fatigue.
 Contrariwise, another matter has to be understood also: that . really nervous, too-highsStruHig child will lhecome still more OK" cited and wide-awake with in- creased exercise, especially If it is of 6 too stimulating nature.
 Actually, the, worst enemy of sleep is lack of sleep. Men in emergencies who have had to lose sleep for nights on end, reach stage where sleep is impossible. To get themselves into condition for slumber they 90 fishing for . day, or 90 absolutely alone on a sylvan hike with only the birds for company.
 Moderate Home Conditions I believe this may be the case with the object of my letter and the subject of this article. She very probably excites herself with very simple experiences.
 If this diagnosis is right, I should do several things--that is, if she were my child, I should keep her away from people until routine of sleep was established. Even if my own friends had to stay out of the house for Q few weeks, I would mako the sacrifice. Next, if there happened to Do any trouble in the family, as, for in- stance, occasional haro-upB with other members, the nervous ono should be kept out of car.shot entirely. Third, she would have exercise, but only the simplest. should not over-burden her with talk, either, or threaten to punish her. And certainly would never mention sleep to her. myself would try to be calm, for ner- vousness or excitability is conta- gious. Voices, ct my request, would never be raised. House. hold routine would run on oiled wheels, without confusion. And even after regular sleep was es- abolished I should continue to practice at least three-fourths of these theories.

She's forever munching fruit and candy. Her frilly dress is out of place where traVel-wisc women wear neatly tailored clothes.

& friend seems always more affectiofl- ate when I'm dressed unusually we'll" As a matter of fact, real love has little to do with physical attrac- ton, 1t is an irresistible magnetism which draws two people together through mental, or physical appre- ciation. Though many of us are familiar with the various reactions of love, irfatuation, or whatever you want to call 1t, there are few psychologists who can accurately define love. But of one thing every woman is certain. And that is the fact that beauty and gfnartness are the two great allies of Dan Cupid. A trim, well-tailored figure, or a glamorous dance-frock have set more made hearts duttering than all the plain, intellectual fronts iIl tho world. of course like every other rule, there are many exceptions to this. But look over the picture Of the present season, the Spring bride in all her youthful appeal. One and all they are slim and willowy; their gowns of satin or diaphonous Mous- sellne, sheathing Q figure of flowing streamline grace. The faces, radiant under the tulle and blossoms, are not always beautiful. In fact, oft- ener than we want to admit, nature was not as kind in lending beauty of face, as science Is in preserving the lines of flgure-beauty. And so, in tho race of romance many Q girl has won by Q neck and 8 hiplif1e. Speaking of the close relation exist- ing between love and beauty, 1t IS interesting to every woman and girl of rather generous proportions, that this figure consciousness is now 1n" terpreted by leading corSetierres, and body conditioners, in the one word posture. With this in mind, women of Waterbury will appreciate the free demonstration and exhibi- ton to be held at the Women's Club on next Monday afternoon and eve- ming.
 Tn this flgure-conditioning dem. onstration 1t will be graphically brought to our attention, what hap pens to women's figures when vari- ous types of foundation garments are worn. Right at the opening of the warm season 1t will be well for every woman and girl, looking for- ward to Q stimulating romance or just for the purpose of looking her best, to witness this free demon- stration by one of the leading corset manufacturers in this country. Listen in on Saturday and Monday morning at ll:l6 to ll:45, when l will explain further details about figurc- grooming. Life begins when you're in love: and love begins with Q streamline figure.

HOW EMINENT SPECIALISTS
 GET THAT WAX

OEL 1HA4 WAX
 On 0 letterhead impressively em- bossed, let us say for the purpose ol this narrative, John Jerimiah Doe. M. D., r. A. A. P. and in one corner Diseases of Children, the candid Dr. Doc writes: ...
 Dear Dr. Brady:
 Your comments on the special ist racket in Yankeeland warm my heart because 1t Is truer than perhaps you know. The pedlatric racket is the snobbies of them all.
 Originally the American Pedi- atric Society was composed of Q group of the wealthier practi- tioners. It is a closed corpora ton. When the American Acad- emy of Pcdiatrlsts was formed I joined 1t. as did most run of the mill pediatrists of the country. l thought 1t might help make me Q better doctor.
 know now 1t was only Q me- thod of gathering funds to h- nance the foundation of "The American Board of Pediatrics"-- the brain child of the fertile minds of Veeder, Aldrich and their gang.
 Having collected ones S200 for fellowship in the American Acad- erny of PediatriSts, they led one to infer that after all the acad- emy had no standing, but, to go places and have a standing in the pediatric world one would be obliged to belong to the American Board of Pediatrics. For example none other could teach pediatrics, Applicants must send $20 (not re- turable) with application and be subjected to an examination.
 Your description "pampered youths with indulgent mammas" is literal. More power to you.
 (Signed) J. J. Doe, M. D.
 Late F. A. A. P. I said another literal thing in the tame article, namely, that pampered young parents with snobbish mo- lions take their babies to these brass pediatrists, these born baby specialists who have had no exper- ence to speak of, and pay the luacks about ten times as much as the advice is worth in the open Indeed 1t is regular rac- ket among Yankee baby specialists to contract with such snobbish folk to look after the boby from now on for a fixed price of $6 or $l0 Q whereas real physicians any where can and do give at least as good advice and service at the or dinary fees prevailing in the com The snob parents who fall for this racket like to imagine that a folder, slip or circular of more or less stereotyped advice handed to them by a specialist" is worth more than individual advice given by an ordinary doctor.
 Barnum was right.
 The baby specialist game as worked in American today proves 1t. Let no reader try to twist what I say about this into something do not say. do not mean to imply that a physician who limits his practice to the diagnosis and treat ment of diseases of infants may not be an excellent physician. I do say that the fact that a doctor holds himself out as being such a special ist by no means signifies that he is a good doctor.
 Further I assure you that no rep- utable pediatrlst or ordinary doctor will venture to contradict me. The brass specialists may growl and snarl but they will not dare t0 speak out either. These tricI1 specialists simply take advantage of their cheap prominence to bid for patron agc in competition with honest gen- rral practitioners who iuft will not FegoFt Co such methods.

SANTA CLARA ELEVEN
WHIPS STANFORD 1910

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal,
Sept. 27 U.P)-University of Santa
Clara administered the first blow
of what looks like a bad season
for Stanford university today by
beating the Pacific coast and Rose
Bowl champions 1870 in a loose
game played in weather that was
tco hot for football

coaching career of Lawrence (Buck)

mentor, and an eqally disappoint-
ing start for Coach Claude Thorn
hills hopes of reaching footballs
heights for the fourth straight year.
The Santa Clara team was quick
to capitalize on the few breaks
the game produced.
Santa Clara scored in the second
and the fourth periods and added
an extra point on the secono score.
After both teams had struggled
around in midfield through the
first quarter and part of the second
Santa Clara got a break when their
defense rushed Glenn Hamilton,
Stanford punter, and the ball rolled
cut of bounds on Stanford's 25.
Don Derosa, veteran Mission
school back smashed at the line for
a 1-yard gain and then cut over
tackle on a reverse to run to
Stanford's 13 yard line He fumbled
as he was tackled, but the officials
let Santa Clara keep the ball.
Suddenly young Manuel Gomez
broke into the clear, Falaschi raised
his arm, and the ball swooped to
the waiting Gomez, who had only
5 yards to go to a touchdown.
Falaschi's placekick was wide.
The second score was more spec
tacular. Stanford, trying hard to
get that Go lead back, tried the
dangerous expedient of passing in
its own territory. Gilbert, a Santa
Clara sub, snatched the toss and
ran it back to Stanfords 80.
AS horde of cardinal jerseys bore
down on him, Gilbert tossed a lat
eral pass to Barlow, and the Santa
Clara back dashed to the 8-yeard
line before he was chased out of
bounds. Quarterback Perrin sent
Fullback Gunther crashing into the
tackle hole. But Perrin and not
Gunther had the ball The quar-
terback galloped wide and deep
toward the side line, turned toward
the goal line and crossee the last
mark before Stanford's badly fooled
defense caught up with him.
Gilbert place kicked the extra
point that ended the scoring.
