BY CAROLYN LLOYD

Do YOU have blanket baby in
the family? If not, you have miss
ed observing an interesting phe-
nomenon. Before the arrival of my
youngest nephew, now not-quite-
three, my acquaintance with bian-
ket babies was by hearsay only.
/ had heard one mother tell how
her son slept with his baby blanket
clutched in his hand until he went
away to Scout camp and was
shamed into giving it up, but that
seemed little extreme. / felt sure
that my nephew had outgrown the
habit; then last week / went to
meet my sister and the three chill
dren as they arrived in Goldsboro
by train. With me was my aunt, a
.childless widow of decided opinions
Of what is correct in polite society
and on how children should be rear
ed.
First came the two older chill
dren, all slicked up for the train
ride and looking very respectable;
then my sister leading by the hand
a little freckle-faced boy with
dancing eyes who trailed from one
hand an object that resembled
nothing so much as an old scrub
rag. My aunt took one look and
exclaimed in a Mortified voice,
"What on earth is that?"
That's Corners blanket" ex-
planned the older brother. "He has
to have it."
She demanded to know why it
hadn't been washed, and no amount
of explaining could convince her
that washing would destroy the
blankets charm-it just wouldn't
smell right to Conner. Seeing that
he wasn't going to relinquish the
thing, my aunt hurried off to her
house before any of her friends
should happen by and be Mortified
by such sight. was given in
structions to wash that blanket
just as soon as we got to Bel
haven. / informed her that l had
no intentions of creating a major
crisis during my sisters visit. A
happy baby with a dirty blanket
being preferable to screaming
baby with clean one. l didn't
wash it, either; and every night
peace reigned in the household as
Conner slept with his cheek nestled
against his blanket.
There is no doubt in my mind
that my sister and / would both
have been just as Mortified as our
aunt was had we seen the first child
with such an unsanitary object.
There was much sterilizing of bot
ties and playthings for him. 1t
seems, however, that the concern
about germs lessons when the Sec
or1d child comes along and practi-
cally disappears with the third
one. Being childless myself, al
ways took dim view of pacifers
and other such placative objects
until / learned first hand what
blessings they can be. My greatest
regret is that our mother didn't
think of giving a dirty blanket to
my sister when she was a baby,
for l spent many miserable hour
blinking" her crib at night so she
would go to sleep. The arrival of
guests at our home was the signal
for her to start crying and l would
be dispatched upstairs with in
structions not to turn on the light
in the room. Since 1 was terrified
of the dark, all l had to do was sit
down on the side of the crib and we
all shook together. Yes sir, I'm
all for pacifiers, worn-out toys, dir
ty blankets-anything for peace
and quiet. Babies seem to under
stand those things more easily than
they do the wisdom of pediatri-
clans.

Editorial
MAKING GOOD USE OF WHAT WE HAVE

IT ALWAYS been the contention in this cor
ner that the Administration is not using to its greatest
advantage the native talent that is available to 1t. Be-
lieve it or not, the use of this type of talent can be OF
inestimable value to any administration, and though
there may be SCOTS, yet, a mite of serious, sober thought
might prove revealing.
THE ANNOUNCEMENT that Rudolph CALDER
has found employment with q branch OF the United Ma
lions conducting a program in one OF the Central Amerl-
can countries should not be good reading to any Virgin
Islanders. Mr.. CALDER is an Engineer, and in this day
and time scientists are at a premium. Heaven knows
these Islands could use such training, and more OF it,
but somehow this young man will from this time forth
give of his time, talents and knoW-how to another coun-
try. Their gain is our loss.
BUT THERE IS more to this whole thing than
Just gain or loss, One of the great assets of effective
leadership is the ability to use to the best possible point
Of effectiveness whatever resources are at hand, both
natural and human.
THIS ADMINISTRATION, for some strange and
unexplained reason, somehow does not seem to place
too much credence in all this type OF reasoning. In spots
it has come through with appointments, but these are
lew and far between. An Administrative Assistant for
st. Croix, a Commissioner of Finance, and a few others
are among those appointed to date. But there is so much
that remains to be done.
TO DAT SEVERAL cabinet posts are vacant,
many lesser positions are still not even considered, SO
far as is known, and people continue to wonder whether
or not there is any thought being given to using all the
materiaHat hand. Then, too, the seeming indifference in
this connection would readily lend credence to the idea
that the Governor is not master Of his own house, but

His embellishments, however,

q charming little Sioux custom
in which a captive foe was
