very definitely shows that DR..
Richmond, a crusading American
as well as churchman, was an i'm
portant figure in the success of
the celebration.
The influence Of the celebration
inspired the Americans to greater
effort to establish the American
government in the territory. Most
Of the leaders in the movement
had come to Oregon on Jason
Lees ship Lausanne. the May
flower of the Pacific" and were
as jealous OF their American citi-
zenship as they were jealous on
behalf Of the church.
Two years after the Sequalit-
chew celebration, their efforts
were successful, and at a meeting
held at Champoeg, Ore, the ma
jority vote was cast for the Amer
lean way. The story OF that action
reached the east and was one Of
the chief influences which stimu-
lated emigration to the northwest
Another issue still remained,
however, and that was the bound
airy line between the United
States and Great Britain. This
was a controversial issue for many
years. and finally was settled by
arbitration through commission
headed by the German emperor.
Sixty-five years after the
Wilkes-Richmond celebration. the
Washington State Historical soci-
ETY. and the Pierce County Histori-
cal and Pioneer association, staged
Fourth Of July celebration and
erected a monument on the origi-
nal site. The spot was located by
Slugimas Koquilton. Muckleshoot
Indian chief. who as a young man
attended the first celebration and
participated in the sports.
The scene Of the first Fourth
Of July celebration west Of the
Mississippi river has changed rsdi-
cally. The springs Of Lake Sc

Doctor Must
Decide on
Feeding
Avoid Listening to
Layman's Advice
On Baby's Diet
By.Leffice Lee Street,

/
Dear Mrs. STREET.: My daughter
is 4 months old. She weighed 6
pounds at birth and she weighs IL
pounds now.
She is breast-fed and a happy,
contented baby.
/ My sister, whose baby is bottle
fed, tells me I should start giving
her cereals, vegetables and fruits.
! give her orange juice now.
Is it necessary to put a skinny
baby on table foods? 1 have loads
of milk and had hoped to nurse
her through the summer until Sep
tenber and then wean her. Would
you send a list and amounts of
foods to give her up to year, while
I am nursing her?
Does she need viosterol and how
should that be given?
do enjoy your column and
have used your advice many times.
Thank you very much.
MRS. M. K.
Answer-Your little girl is growing
and gaining splendidly and many
congratulations on having such a
happy, well baby. May her good
health continue, which I am sure
that it will as long as you show
such interest in the essential busi-
ness of feeding her properly.
Many letters have come to me in
which mothers have said "So-and-so
says that I should do such-and-
such a thing" In some cases the
advice may be correct and, of course,
it is always well meant. But you
are very wise to be skeptical of
listening to your sisters ideas on
how you should feed your baby, be-
cause she is not doctor. Besides,
her baby is bottle-fed and all babies
vary, anyway.
Before we answer your questions
may I ask you if you take your baby
to see doctor once month? If
not, please do this; it is very i'm
portant for your baby's health and
for her future growth.
1t is a great pleasure to have a
letter from a mother who Is willing
to take the time and trouble to
nurse her baby and I know that
you will be rewarded by raising a
sound, healthy child.
I would much prefer that you ask
a doctor about the use of viosterol.
