hardly know how to examine a
newborn baby. He would be justi-
fed in thinking it was a new
species of animal.
The proportions of the newborn
baby are all different. The head
is much larger in proportion to
the body and the upper part Of the
head is away out Of proportion to
the lower Watching the eyes, if
you get a chance TO find them open,
you will notice that they move in
dependently of one another and
make no attempt to focus on OBJ
jects as an adults do.
The abdomen is much larger
than the chest, due TO the size of
the liver. The abdomen is the fur
mace which prepares all the mate
rails for growth and since that
baby has to increase two or three
times its size in year or two, the
furnace must be adequate.
Activities LimiteI
The activities of this little bun
die Of humanity are naturally
strictly limited. 1t tends TO re-
spond with mass movements when
stimulated. That is, the whole
body moves rather than a part, as
is the case with an adult. He will
draw up his legs, beat his arms
about, shake his head and roll over
in one movement.
1t is doubtful how much the
baby sees. hears, smells or tastes.
Its sensory world is certainly very
different from ours.
Everything the baby does is a
gradual pattern of improvement.
The sequence Of motor activity is
as follows:
month-lies on abdomen and
lifts chin.
, months-lies on abdomen and
lifts chin and chest.
3 months-lies on back, reaches
for object, such as a ball, usually
misses il.
months-sits with support.
5 months-sits in mothers lap,
grasps object.
6 months-sits on chair, grasps
dangling object.
7 months-sits alone.
months-stands with help.
9 months-stands holding fur
niture.
Starts to Creep
10 months-creeps.
IL months-walks with support
when led.
II months-is able to pull itself
to standing position by grasping
furniture.
Is months-climbs stairs.
IA months-stands alone.
Is months - walks alone with
out help.
Here is the observation on ac-
tivities of an eighteen-months-old
baby:
He carries things to the porch:
a spade, a wheelbarrow and a
cart. He stopped over to pick up
the spade, but arranged his feet
several times before he could keep
his balance when he leaned over.
He backed down two steps of the
porch, on his hands and knees, and
walked up and down a narrow
path on the lawn. When he fell
down, he picked himself up by
keeping his hands on the ground
until he was sure his feet we're
steady.

rights. A Republican was much
more strongly federal. A Repub-
lican was a protectionist. A DEM
ocrat was for free trade or A tariff
for revenue only.
That era's past.
There still are opposing schools
Of thought, but they no longer
classify as Republican and Demo-
cratic.
nlustratively, there are anti
prohibitionists and a few surviving
prohibitionists. Among the latter
is Josh Lee, who was defeated for
reelection to the senate from
Oklahoma the other day, after try
ing to get a dry clause into our
'teen-age draft legislation. He's a
Democrat. In Kansas, Senator
Arthur Capper, who supported the
dry proposition. was reelected
He's a Republican There likewise
were wet Republicans as well as
wet Democrats.
Similarly, the old-fashioned par
ties are all jumbled together on
economic issues.
Plenty OF Boilers
Nominations on Republican and
Democratic lines today are almost
purely a matter of habit. Voting
is, too, although boilers are far
more numerous at the polls than
they used to be.
President Roosevelt was quite
right, then, in saying, as he did in
a recent interview, that the latest
election result indicated no par
ticular Republicanly trend away
from democracy. And there's no
doubt that a bipartisan alliance
should be easy to fix up-provided
it's considered as an old-line Re-
publican Democratic alliance.
Politicians still stew over those
worn-out designations. but the
average elector doesn't-not one
cents worth.
AS to the war, there's no room
for controversy.
II Uncle Sam had militarily
scored super-creditably before cleo
tons, there's no question that the
administration would have had
nightly close TO a 100 per cent
walkover on Nov. 3. The African
campaign came just a week too
late for many Democratic candi-
datesl
The skimpiness OF its retention
Of congressional control wasn't
due to Its Democratic-versus its
Republican politics, but to the no
ton that the military campaign
had been mismanaged. A lot Of
the voters obviously haven't liked
its New Deal economics, but they
wouldn't have hollered about EN-
at the present juncture If they'd
felt that the White House was
dealing with the war situation
competently-as now seems pretty
evident.
F. D. r. wanted Republican sup
port, centainly-and he's had it.
But, as previously remarked, the
political party distinction doesn't
mean anything at present.
The distinction was that he was
accused Of having made botch of
our war program. Il was a Demo
cratic as well as a Republican
judgment. F. d. r. says he's con-
suited Republicans as well as
Democrats Nobody disputes 1t.
He, personally is the guy-not his
party, who's held at fault for the
prospects gumminess.
