strife, whether we keep alert and
interested or begged down in dull
ness, depends upon what sort OF
companionship we find In ourselves.
There are those who are never
less alone than when alone. There
are those whose minds to them .
kingdom is" as the poet says, and
who can find endless diversion In
their own thoughts and memories
and plans and dreams.
And, alas, there are multitude
of others who are such poor COM
pany to themselves that they cannot
bear to be alone even for an hour.
You see them desperately trying to
escape from themselves by going
to see silly moving pictures, listen
ing in on idiotic radio programs, and
consorting with hordes Of others
who are just as poverty-stricken In
resources within themselves as they
are.
Surely none are to be more pitied
than those who bore themselves, for
they are tied to q dullard of whom
they can never be rid. They could
shut their door upon the tiresome
repeater of old stories and the
would-be wits. They could even
divorce a stupid husband or wife.
But there is no way of Kidding
oneself of ones own heavy and
pepless society.
Another thing that we forget is
that If we would be happy We must
be at peace with ourselves. No sue
cess, no fame, no possessions can
bring us happiness if our souls are
surcharged with bitterness and II
the glory of our triumph Is dulled
by the memory OF how We won 1t.
Our position, our wealth, our fine
houses, our yachts may dazzle others
and make them envious of us and
think how happy we must be, but
in the silence of the night when
we answer to our consciences we
know that there can be no happi-
ness for us unless we can come clean
with ourselves and know that We
have done our task, whether great
or small, to the best of our ability,
and that we have dealt fairly and
honestly with all men.
And If there were no other reason
for decent living, it would be found
in the fact that the one most es-
sential thing to our morale is self
respect. That is the very backbone
of all character. Pity that we do
not look ourselves In the face and
see what we think of ourselvs.

Protect Baby
All
Diseases
Check With Doctor
Regularly During
The First Year
By Lenice Lee Street,

~ ACbbtlC ACC otCCb
Why" questioned a mother, do
you continually harp upon your be-
lief that an infant should be taken
to a doctor once a month until he is
year old? My baby hasn't been to
doctor for three months and she is
healthy. happy and gaining fast"
Has your baby been protected
against diphtheria?" I answered.
The young mother looked puzzled
mo" she replied, but what has that
got to do with my question:"
"A great deal, because it is now
fully five weeks past the time when
your baby girl should have been
given this care. If you had taken
her to doctor once q month, a
every wise mother does, he would
have advised you about this.
you cannot be expected to know
all the facts about the care and pro-
lection of infants because you are
not a doctor. but you definitely
should avail yourself of the advice
that is every modern mothers for
the asking. There are numerous
facts you should learn upon which
your babys health, and even her
life, may depend"
The average mother does not know
enough about pediatrics to enable
her to detect the first warning signs
of illness or malnutrition in her
child. Often changes take place SO
gradually that they are only notice
able to the trained and experienced
eye of the pediatrician. When he
examines the baby he observes any
abnormal coloring of the skin and
its moistness, as well as muscle tone,
muscular activity and many other
signs that indicate danger signals
even the most fond and observing
mother would miss.
The question of diet alone is OF
vital importance to the baby. Most
mothers do not know exactly when
their babies (who are not average,
but little individuals with individual
needs should receive additions to
their menus or have the amounts OF
foods increased.
The doctor is also able to give the
mother much needed advice as to
proper training in habits of elm
ination, sleeping and eating.
1t is within a mothers power to
protect her precious baby against a
number of dread diseases if she will
follow the directions of her pediatri-
clan. Illness that may be prevented
and avoided are: Diphtheria, small
pox, rickets. scurvy, certain types of
digestive disorders, anemia of Ger
tain type, and goiter

from admiring her in the junior

together, you really start to get ac-

there may be few little things
that aren't perfect, but you are 60

excitement sort of gets you. Also,
you feel rather important to have

that you are in love- This is an

But-comes the dawn. You see
more and more of each other, and

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-Joseph E
Davies, former Ambassador to Soviet
Russia, declared yesterday that the
word of Stain and other high
Russian leaders ito me is absolutely
good. When they say they are going
to fight Hitler to the end and will
make no separate peace you can
rely on them, unless they get the
idea that they are being double
crossed"
And we shouldn't contribute to
that idea by anything that we permit
our people to do" Mr.. Davies said at
a luncheon given by the Council for
Democracy.
II would venture the opinion
further that the Soviet leaders will
stand firm not only for theological
reasons and reasons of honor. but
because fo their personal interest.
They can't afford to let Hitler win" !"
Mr.. Davies urged that Americans
overcome any fears they might have
about the growing power Of the
Soviet Union. asserting that "Mr.
Stain has gone on specific record
to the effect that so far as he is
concerned, what he desires in Eu-
rope. is, first, security and peace,
and assurance that when this situa-
ton Is through there will be no
recurring menace of Hitlerism and
Fascism in Europe"

The State Department Is being
pressed today to ask Great Britain
for an immediate pledge of post

Breckenridge Long. Assistant Secre-
tary Of State.
When the subject was raised by
Senator La Toilette, Progressive, OF
Wisconsin during closed commit
tee session yesterday the recommen-
dation was said to have had the
active support Of most OF the II
members present.
Desires Whole Hearted Effort.
Senator La Toilette was reported
to have told Mr.. Long that, in his
opinion, a whole-hearted war effort
could be expected from India only
If Great Britain gave definite assur-
ances Immediately that India would
have actual self-rule after the con-
flict ends. India now has q measure
of local self-government but her
leaders have been seeking dominion
status.
Gord Cranborne, colonial Sec
retary, told the House of Lords
in London Tuesday that the
British government was "in favor
of India's political freedom" but
indicated it was the responsibility
of Indian leaders to devise some
scheme which would be satisfac-
tory" to all elements in India)
Apprehensive over the continued
advance Of Japanese troops across
Burma, Senator La Toilette and
others were said to have expressed
the view that 1t was highly impor-
tant that Indian and Chinese forces
be united to form q defense line to
halt the invaders and eventually to
take the offensive against them.
There have been reports that some
such objective was sought by Chang

For this reason, they were said to
have contended. the State Depart
ment should move now to convince
the British that they ought to act
while there was still time to win the
full support Of India. before the
Japanese could overrun Burma.
Senators who attended said Mr..

State Department in that direction.
