Do you remember the article we
wrote not too long ago on the
mems Bermuda shorts? We men,
toned that we were waiting to see
which business man would try
this outfit first. Well. we were
informed by a very reliable source
the other day that Mr.. Harry
Lewis had been wearing them a
long time around the house and on
his vacation, but this reliable
source said that she had not been
able to persuade him to don his
outfit and come to town with it
on. We think she's still trying.
We bet there are others, too, who
are Just too bashful to admit they
wear Bermudas!
Have you seen Teddy Holt, Will
son Golf or Erwin Anderson lately?
II you have, you've seen the new
sport ties that have just come out.
They are ropes-we mean cords
that came in every color of the
rainbow, one to wear with every
different colored sport shirt. Ted
dy has a very exciting shade of
lavender and we believe Wilson
and Erwin have been trying every
color. They'll wear one for a while
until they get tired of it, then try
another one. They have a new
look every day.

OF Boil Weevil
Now On Rampage

CLEMSON - Reports from over
the state show sharp increase in
boil weevil infestation in many
cotton fields during the past week.
lhese reports indicate an average
lnfeStatlon increase from 6 percent
to 9 percent in fields where insect
lcldes have been applied and from
10 percent to 26 percent in fields
where no applications have been
made.
Cotton prospects are reported as
generally fair to good-ranging
from poor to excellent in various
localities. In the areas receiving
the most rainfall prospects are
good. Cotton is generally small
out well fruited in most areas.
The weekly reports OF county
agents indicate, however, that cot
ton pests continue to damage the
crop. These reports show increas-
ed lnfeStationS of not only boil
weevils but also of spider mites.
and bollworms have occurred dur
ing the week. Leaves, squares, and
small bolls are being shed, and in
some fields cotton is opening pre-
maturely.
Each cotton field throughout the
state continues TO be an individual
problem. In many fields the boil
weevil is puncturing the top crop.
Spider mites infeStations are in
creasing in many fields starting
at the edges and gradually spread
ing over the fields. The bolIworm
increase is rather general over the
state.
To meet the above situation the
Clemson Extension Cotton Com
mlttee recommends that growers
(l) apply insecticides on a 5-dav
schedule to protect all bolls less
than 3 weeks old, (2) make appli-
cations of recommended miticides

but I DIDN'T know I should talk
to my baby!"
In a famous speech clinic young
mother stood holding the hand of her
silent 3-year-old little boy. Her protest
was both as pathetic and futile as that
of a person arrested for a crime he
didn't know was against the law. Those
who heard her wondered how she could
have kept from jabbering delightful
nonsense to her infant. until she ex-
planned the strange circumstances.
The very young wife and her older
husband lived in the Philippines when
the baby was born. They were stationed
in a remote area where the fathers
work of supervising large agricultural
areas took him away from home most
of the time. The baby was asleep when
he left in the morning and when he
came back at night, and never heard
the parents conversing. The only fe-
male servant was deaf and dumb
native. The two male ones spoke only
a dialect and were seldom around the
child. The mother carefully refrained
from talking ''baby-talk'' because she
had heard it was harmful.
1t Seemed Silly
And it seemed silly % talk to him
like a grown up, so thought I'd better
wait until he was old enough to talk
himself
Like some deaf babies who vocalize
only for awhile, without normal en-
enlargement, the healthy little bay
had simply stopped talking" that is,
making infant noises. At three had a
few words he used when his need was
great. ''Meh'' supposedly milk stood
for any kind of food, ''ba-ba" for bath.
room, and mama" for everything
that represented security and protec
ton.
He began to whimper mama now
lifting his arms to be taken up. Wher
his request was granted, with the small
mother struggling under his weight
he refused to utter another sound.
This was a. very unusual case, bu
it illustrates principle every mothel
should know. Babies don't just learl
to talk; they must be taught. Gu

grandmothers instinctively gushed all
over infants. Some of the present gen.
Grafton mothers have just enough sci
entific learning to be fearful, and in
being over-cautious, do all the wrong
things.
Beginning with the birth cry, the
child goes through several stages of
what is known as vocal play It is a
random kind of activity but very
necessary. The muscles of the vocal or
gans are being exercised, just as the
muscles of the legs and arms are
when the baby kicks and squirms.
Vocal Play
At first vocal play is only cries, not
for hunger or discomfort as they will
be later, but responses to stimuli such
as sudden sound, change in tenn
perature or a shift in position. Soon the
child begins to cry with meaning. Most
mothers can tell by the sound whether
a pin is sticking him, he's hungry, or
wanting attention.
At about the fourth week the infant
begins a series of COOS and gurgleS.
This stage is known as babbling. 1t be-
gins with vowels, experimentally on
different notes. 'Ahh- ahh-oooo-ee
Then he will chew or smack his lips
and swallow, getting in an mm-mm-mm
and Club or two. Babbling continues
for several months, becoming constant
ly more complex, until finally he will
be making every known sound ever
used in any language Incidentally he
drops the sounds that don't appear in
the language he is learning For in
stance, German baby will stop say
ing 9Th"
1t is during the babbling stage that
the rest of the family should act like
perfect idiots in talking gibberish to
him, with warm assuring tones that
make him feel loved and one of the
group, even though the tiniest one
Especially is this true of the men Of

An Editorial
Challenge

HAVE YOU KNOWN the thrill of
sewing something from nothing so
to speak? Renovation is phase of
home sewing which offers endless pos
sibilities for satisfaction and substantial
saving
If you have watched your child or
grandchild playing outside in a bright
wool jacket made from the good part
of mans old wool shirt, you know
what I mean. Old coats, suits and
trousers offer lot of good material
for making little coats, jackets, skirts,
jumpers and trousers. There are many
ways we can save by sewing when the
children are small.
Before remodeling chore is begun,
there are several factors to be con-
Sidered. For instance, if your husband
has outgrown wool shirt without wear
ing out the elbows, you might be wiser
to keep it and wear it when you do
your outside chores. A piece of clothing
which may serve a purpose ''as Isl
",
poor choice for a renovation project.
Sometimes a garment is not worthy
of the effort involved in making it
over. If holding it up to the light re-
veals a great many moth holes or
threadbare places in the major pieces,
look elsewhere for material You have
probably known the heartache of
mother and child when a made-over
party dress went to pieces soon after
being remodeled
Consideration must be given to the
shape of the pieces of the original
piece of clothing, when selecting a pat
tern for the new garment. A pattern
with similarly shaped pieces will be
much easier to cut out without splicing.
Many times, a garment to be made
over may be dyed a color more suit
able to the new piece of clothing. Very
often the trim from the original gar
ment is not appropriate for a child, and
should not be used. Velveteen makes a
dressy trim for little garments and
gives them style.
Suitability of the old material for the
garment you may wish to construct, i:
important. A little jumper or skirt made
from a too flimsy piece of materia
would not be attractive or practical. 4
blouse for the jumper, made from
grownup'S sheer dress probably woul,
not be attractive or appropriate. On tn
other hand, if the blouse were mad
from an old shirt tail of fine pastel pat
tern, it could prove attractive and cas-,
to launder.
Aside from children's clothing, w
have mems suits which we ar
able to make into suits, Jackets
jenkins, etc. for ourselves. The best re
manning part of two old house dresse
may be combined to make an attractiv
apron. Of course, the last assignmer

he hears himself and others making
noises, and the hearing delights him.
Adults should never interrupt him in
the middle of his cooling, but should
wait until he has finished a phrase,
then repeat the same sound. ''Uggeldy-
uggeldy-ooO." Immediately he will
sound off fast and furiouSly with the
uggeldy sound and many more. He
loves it. 1t is like young canary when
the master singers cage is set near
his, or the radio is turned on.
Bad for the baby? At this stage all
the baby talk in the world won't hurt
him. Just don't talk to him when he
is sleepy or feeding. No one wants to
be bothered then
A little later he develops something
known as echolalia He echoes every
thing he hears sometimes to the en-
barraSsment of his parents. "Aunt
Betsy'S an old bat-ole bat-ole bat
Aunt Betsy.") but without any under
standing of the meaning. This phase is
sometimes mistaken for true speech.
The child may say one or two aSound-
ing sentences and then go back to re-
peating only single words, and the dis
appointed parents will think their very
bright child is Slowing up
Only Normal
But he is only being normal. It was
the too big mouthful of words that was
abnormal. At this time he should be
read nursery rhymes and encouraged
to repeat them, or to pat or clap as
they are read. In this way he not only
hears speech sounds but learns rhythm
of performance.
When the baby is nearly year old.
the whole picture changes. He begins
to learn meanings of words and will
understand many before he will try to
say them. Single words will come to
stand for whole ideas. When he says,
"Me-uk' milk, he may mean, 81
want some milk" ''the milk is good,'
or lets throw it all over Daddy
He is now going into the stage of
imitation. He says, 'Me-uk" Mother
gives him milk and says plainly,
milk" He tries to repeat it, and
though he still says, ''Me-uk,'' it sounds
pretty good to him. 1t is his way of
saying it, and he should be praised for
the attempt. But adults would sound
pretty silly if they went around saying,
"Me-uk" because the baby did.
At last the child is really learning
true speech which will express his
ideas. Adults should provide him with
good models. From now on there should
be NO BABY-TALK. He should be
talked to more than ever, however.

Some children respond sooner than
others. Often Silent children. once
they start to talk, almost never stop,
as if they are making up for lost time,
but if they have been talked to all
