Luncheon Showing
of Smart FrOcks

FASHION shows continue to add
zest and spice to the Saturday
luncheons in the blue room of
local hotel. With the city full of out
of-town visitors. these affairs are very
gay and there is barely room to squeeze
in another group. Last Saturday
there were a number of large lunch
con parties, which gave a particularly
festive appearance
The costumes shown were from one
Of the smaller local shops with quite
large following among women who
like smart, yet conservatively wear
able clothes. Summer sports things in
pleasing variety were shown, including
a natural coarsely woven linen outfit
for golf and tennis. Wash silks with
pleated skirts were good.
For immediate town wear a lovely
collection was shown There was a
bright rose REFER suit with navy
blouse and accessories and several
navy costumes in crepes and sheers
that could be worn all summer,
Fresh and neW-looking for spring
evenings was candy-striped dinner
dress of ribbed material, and a petit
coat dress of navy and white sheer
with a very full underskirt of navy
organdy. Dramatic in effect was the
charming gray chiffon formal with
violet chiffon jacket, long full bishop
sleeves and hood which was worn
over the head. When the jacket was
removed deep square decolletage was
revealed outlined with violet velvet
ribbon.

Selfish Mother Has Forfeited

(Copyright, 1881

Don't worry about her dying or COM

Millions Of mothers keep their chill
dren under subjection by threatening
to die for 80 or 40 years at a stretch If
they are crossed. It is a towards
weapon, but they have found that it
works, and old women are seldom par
ticular about the means they use in
dominating their families. But don't
take your wife to live with your moth

body to live with mother, or put her In
a nice boarding house and, although
she will protest at first that you have
broken her heart and been mean and
ungrateful to her, yor will be surprised
at how chirpy and happy she will be-
And when there is grandchild she
will think she engineered the match.

Form Baby's
Food Habits
Very Early
Cleanliness and
Quiet Essential
Tolls Health.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

THE first thing the baby needs upon
his arrival on this earth is sleep.
He is tired after his hard journey;
sleep restores him and makes him feel
that this old world is not such a bad
place after all. The next thing he
needs is food
The best food for baby is his own
mothers milk, but that milk is not
always ready for him. The quality
and the quantity of it may not be what
he needs. then the baby must have
formula that makes up the Deficiencies,
until such time as mothers milk
reaches the required standards. That
formula is the most important thing
imaginable. Get it right and all is
we'll, but get it wrong and nothing else
can be right.
The new baby must be under the
care of a skilled physician for the first
two weeks at least-for the first month,
if possible.
The men and women in the baby
hospitals know about the feeding and
the care of babies and apply that
knowledge to your particular baby get
ting him off to good start.
If babies were all born with the
same needs. the same appetites, the
same everything, rearing them would
be easy. All we would have to do would
be to supply the food. lay down the
rules. and then watch the babies grow.
But babies don't come that way. Each
of them has different need, differ
ent equipment and each must have
his particular needs met. And that
is why say only the skilled physician
should advise about the babys first
foods.
Once started on the feeding schedule
the mother can manage very nicely
with monthly advice from the doctor
or the nurse. AS long as the baby
thrives on his formula. as long as he
develops nicely on his diet, there is
no need for anxiety about his eating
habits. But if his weight does not in
crease as it should, or if his develop
ment does not keep time with the span
OF his days, the feeding formula and
the feeding schedule must be examined
and changed, but always under the
physicians advice.
After the formula has been tested,
tried and accepted there is one other
very important factor in feeding the
baby, and that is, cleanliness. One
cannot be too careful about this. No
food. however good, can help the baby
if that food is not clean. All bottles
must be washed, rinsed and sterilized;
also the nipples. Never put the nipple
that is to go into the infants mouth
into your own mouth. Should nip
pie fall when you are trying to put it
on the bottle. take clean one and
try again. Always wash your hands
before touching anything the baby is
to eat. Cleanliness is his protection
against illness.
A baby should be fed in such way
that he will learn to like to eat. So
have the food the right temperature.
Be skillful about feeding him. Don't
pour the milk down his neck. Smile
while you feed him. Make certain he
is in a comfortable position. Talk
softly and encouragingly to him. Lay
him gently on your lap, face down,
or over your shoulder, and pat him to
bubble him. His experiences while
feeding in these early days are going
to influence his eating habits for the
rest of his life, and that is of tre-
mendous importance to him and to
those who love him.

Manners
of the
Moment

IF YOU really like ice cream sodas
it is almost as hard not to sip at
the straw when it starts gurgling as
it is to refrain from taking piece
of candy when there is an open box
in front of you.
Naturally, it isn't polite to drink
your ice cream soda down to the
last drop. 1t isn't polite because in
evitably the last drop comes up the
straw with noise like saxophone.
And you aren't supposed to make
noises while eating and drinking.
But. knowing how you feel, I hate
to see you miss any Of that nice
foamy stuff in the bottom of your
glass. So would suggest that you
try digging with the spoon on the
last quarter of an inch. And then,
if you still haven't gotten all you
want, put the glass to your lips and
drink. as you would milk or water.
Forget the straw.

others look very much as they must
have in 1880. You may wander
through narrow streets and over un-
even brick sidewalks down to the foot
OF the hill, where oyster boats tie up
al the Wharves just as they did many
years ago. and the fishermen call their
wares, fresh from the bay.
RY FAR the finest house in the
town is the Hammond -Harwood
house. on the corner of MARYLAND
avenue and King George street.
Famous authorities have called it the
finest Georgian house in America. I
can add only that it is the finest 1
have seen. 1t was built by Matthias
Hammond for the Philadelphia girl
he wished to marry. She Tilted him
because he spent more time building
his house than courting her No one
can doubt that he did just that, for
1t must have been year before the
house appeared above ground, so
elaborate in plan and detail is the
foundation of brick arches and hand
hewn timbers.
William Buckland was the architect
FOR this house. 1t was Matthias Ham
mond that recommended him to
George Mason to assist him at Gum
ston Hall in Virginia Both houses
are perfection-the Hammond house
the formal town house and Gunston
Hall the intimate family home
Because his marriage plans were not
carried out. Mr.. Hammond sold his
house to Mr.. HarWood as soon as it
was finished without ever having lived
in it. The Harwood family lived in
1t from l774 until about 10 years ago,
when the last member of the family
passed away, and the house and it's
contents were sold at auction Be-
cause it did not change hands and
because the last members of the FAM
lily were almost fanatical about not
allowing anything to be sold from the
house or changed in it, it has re-
mained practically as it was built up
to the present day. st. Johns College
bought the house at auction and
turned it over to the Garden Club of
Maryland as its headquarters.

Nation.
On the hill, looking over the bay, is
the State House, where Washington
resigned his commission to the Con-
tinental Congress in 1888. A year later
the peace treaty with England was
signed there. and in 1885 the Annapolis
Convention, which led to the Consti-
tutional Convention in Philadelphia the

Besides that, it fits perfectly, and it
will not slip off the shoulders. It's
decorative, too, so that you need never
be embarrassed if early guests find
you still wearing it. The square neck

it attractive. You can make it in just
a few hours. The diagram shows you

Making Dough Light.

If bread is to be pourous and light,
the dough must be kneaded to develop
the gluten in the flour. The gluten
becomes elastic and stretches to hold
in the gas released by the yeast. The
dough is kneaded lightly and gently
until it is smooth and satiny.

Mr.. Pinchot writes.
MIR. Corcoran replied that, so far
as training and experience were con-
cerned, I need not worry. All that
was required was an obstinate man
who would stand up in the meetings
of the Reconstruction Finance Board
Corporation, Mr.. Pinchot) and op-
pose the policies Of the chairman, Mr..
Jesse Jones, who, he explained. was
disposing of Government funds in
stingy fashion. And, in particular, he
was refusing to part with public money
unless he believed there was a fair
chance of getting it back.
"Such policy" Mr.. Corcoran main
tanned, dictated as it was by busi-
ness considerations, was precisely what
the situation did not demand. He
said the right way to restore buying
power and bring recovery was to pour
money into circulation in the greatest
possible quantities at the highest pos
sible speed. And to illustrate his
point he remarked that the ideal
thing would be for fleets Of airplanes
to fly over the country discharena
