Colds Often
Start Infections

Thus, if your baby is being
carefully fed, and cared for; II
he is gaining weight annually
and then suddenly develops dl-
arrhea or starts vomiting, then
YOU should assume that some
thing has happened suddenly to
his system to make it refuse the
food which formerly agreed with
him.
The most common cause OF
such a disturbance is an in
lection, and since the infection
most common in children by
far is the common cold, just as
it is in adults, you would do
well to investigate this first as
the probable cause.
Of course, there are other
infections which night cause
the trouble. Inflammation OF
the ears might ne the cause;
1t might be bronchitis; if it is
q girl baby, it might be pyelitis
-pus in the kidney. Parents
should know, too, that if theirs
is a baby girl, they must be
extra clean and careful with
the diapers.

The beginning Of her real
career was drawing near. To
quote from an article by Doris
Fleeson which appeared in the
Saturday Evening Post last Jan

tary to the president Of the
Fleet Corporation had been
F. D. RS secretary, and, though
a Republican, had promised to
enlist under the Roosevelt ban

campaign"
I'm August, 1920" Miss Flee

ability during war time had
marked her for his attention"

tiers, and following the defeat
Mrs. Roosevelt asked her to
come to Hyde Park to help clean
up the correspondence. There
began the affiliation which has
never ended.
When the President fell i'll, it
became necessary for Miss LIE
Hand to do his work at the
Roosevelt house in New York,
and when he became governor,
she moved to Albany to live with
the family, and has never left
them.

Famous Authority on Prob
lens Of Love and Marriage
Copyright. 1899. by King Features
Syndicate. Ine.)
A WEEK or two ago this
IA column suggested that
European dictators would ac-
complish their ambitions to
bring about mass marriages
and produce more babies to
be turned into soldiers if
they'd only create an Old
Ladies' Auxiliary to give
them some definite informa-
ton about the facts of life.
The grandmas would inform
the pro tenn Caesars that moth
ing helps along falling in love

gether in shops, factories, Off

puS In such surroundings the
young Susceptibles, who are
supposed to be working and
studying, are amazed to find
Cupid Sneaking up on them and
the first thing they know they
are wildly, romantically in love,
and deciding to marry and live
happily ever after.
Orders Seem
Most Drastic
The Fascist decree demands
that nine men shall be EN-.
ployed to every woman, and
that establishments employing
fewer than 10 men must en-
ploy no women at all. And the
New Year gift from the NaziS
to 100000 young women is q
back to the farm, girls" order
This compulsory farm labor
now applies to all unmarried girls
between 18 and Is years except
those physically incapacitated.
The decree stipulated further
that girls under 25 years of age,
who after March /, wish to OBJ
tain work in business or the
civil service, must furnish evi.
dence of at least one years
activity on farm or in a house
hold.
Mrs. j. Parker Van Zant, just
returned from a six months
survey of Central Europe, which
included 10000 miles of air
travel, was the guest of honor at
q Washington dinner the other
night, and talked on "Germany'S
Growing Pains" She said she
found Germany IAN armed
camp" with capital, labor, in
dustry and agriculture all mo-
bilized to support the army.
Provides Substitute
Workers
The National Socialist Peoples
Welfare Organization, she told,
provides s u m m r vacation
homes for tired mothers, and
during their absence, substitute
workers are provided for their
places in factories or homes"
Here again is where the wise
old ladies auxiliary would be
able to give some very valuable
information to Der Fuehrer and
President Friedrich Syrup Of
the Reich's Institute.
Pish! Tush! The grand
mothers would undoubtedly say:
Don't you know human nature
any better than that? Don't
you know that while the tired
mothers were off on their vaca'
tions, human nature being what
it is, their husbands would
probably fall in love with the
rosy-cheeked young substitute
workers? And when the tired
mothers come home, it would
be to more grief and headaches
than they had in the first
place.
But then, perhaps, it's taking
too much for granted to expect
that men, when embarking on
the heady adventure of turning
themselves into Caesars, would
take into account the real facts
of life. Let's be thankful we
in the United States live with
out benefit of dictators.

Again he reminded his friends and his
critics that British war plans are geared
to a three-year struggle. Our strength

In move to preserve this strength,
Britain's principal political parties were
reported on Friday as in agreement that
there should be no elections for the
duration of the war. To this degree
