Feeding Meat to Young Baby

By Herman N. Bundesen. M. D. DVRING the past 25 years we have became more and more daring in the feeding of infant* While mi|k. preferably mother’s milk, han remained the mainstay of baby's diet. we have found that the child benefits bv the early addition of certain other foods.! such as orange juice and strained vegetables Even so. until recently, not many even considered the idea of giving t meat to babes Now. however, the marketing of very finely strained meat has given rise to esj eriments to see whether such meats can safely be given to babies in the early months of life. For example. Doctors Ruth M Leverton and George Clark, of Nebraska. have given strained meats to babies beginning at the age of six weeks and continuing for a period of eight weeks. A study was carried out on 33 infants, over a six-month period, to determine bow well the babies tol erated the meat and what effect It had on the coloring matter In the blood and the number of red blood cells. -The strained meat was given to the infants in their milk mixture The effect of the meat feedings was determined by comparing the babies who received meat with tb*babies who did not Enough meat was given to increase the amount! of protein in the diet by 36 percent V*»l beef pork usd *•« used The meat was started by giving a small amount at first, and

The s auditor's office in the court house, j which citadel of government is I closed because of the election holi•day. the fire engine house on South Seventh street, and the county jail, : were used today .is voting places. I The county garage* on North First street is another publie building used in past elections for this pur- . pose. In the townships the voting booths were set up in the school : houses. These sites afford penna ; nent places, along with the con | venieuce.-c expected by the work ers. — o o The county Eighth Grade school commencement will be held in this '<itv on May 15 at the junior senior 'high school building.

Threat Os Strike: If a strike occurs on th- rail I roads May 11. as now threatened, 'the people- of the country oin • again will be presented with a j spec tacular demonstration of tin , high cost of the strike as an in--1 strument of negotiation between labor and management Other J strikes frequently le ejve b-s I notice, but iii the final analysis they are not less costly. i The background of the railroad dispute emphasize,, also that the strike could be outlawed only at ■ the risk of depriving organized labor of its only effective means of forcing a continuance of nego- , nations until a satisfactory settle--1 ment is reached An invaluable service to all men ' would be rendered by d- vising an acceptable less wasteful »üb‘:i--tute for tin- strike. Federal media .tion boards have been tried, with -only mediocre results. A system of ■civil action in the established > courts might be the answer, but the- pres esses would have to be faster than is now the general rule. When a solution is found, it will have to he one based on recognition of three fundamental interests in industry, those of ownership, labor, and the people.

then gradually increasing it. The anfount of sugar in the diet was decreased so that the baby would not receive a diet too high in caloric or heat value The babies accepted th.- mixture readily and none of them was upi set by it. The babies receiving the strain- [ nd meat did not grow more rapidly or gain weight more readily than the infant* who did not receive the meat over a two-nionth period of study. However, there wax a marked Increase in the number of red cells and the amount of coloring mater in the blood. It would seem, therefore, that the giving of meat dorr. have the effect of bringing up the red cells count and increasing the amount of hemoglobin or coloring in the blood When it is realized that practically all babies develop some degree of anemia by the time they are six months of age, the value of this regimen can be appreciated. Perhaps studies over a longer period of time would also show some effects insofar as weight ‘ gains and more rapid growth are concerned Os course, most physicians do not approve of the use of meat in the diet at these early ages However. It does seem that strained .-neats can be added to infant feedings as early as the fourth or fifth ssstb with definite besafit* tn*ofar az the prevention of anemia is concerned

Kit, your fatter took money from hie employer to eave hia brother's business. The brother was in South America and tn some kind of financial jam and your father thought, according to John Bennett, that he could make the money good. He was caught but not before the brother tn South America was back on his feet and ready to do anything to help your father out But it was too late then. It teems tbere’d been seme jealousy between your father and hia partner. The partner wi nted to see your father pay the hard way . . . Isn't that ail you wanted to know—that they were people you couldn’t be ashamed of* It's a tragic story, Kit, but it occurred to me they'd want you to live the life the; misted because of that one false step. You're both of them, you know. It’s because your father didn't want this hanging over your head that he never saw you again and wouldn't permit his family to interfere with your aunt's bringing y>u up. This can’t touch ’-ou very deeply. Kit. You don’t remember them. All you can do is think of them as two people who had a lot while the going was good and one mls’ake made tn an irrational moment brought the end . . ." Kit's clear eyes were misty. “That's all 1 wanted t know, Mike. Thank you. 1 feel a lot better about it. I know tie *why.’ And it is rutile for me to cry over what they mused. I suppose . . ." *T\vo people who have had each other and a child and been happy haven’t missed much. You have a lot of well-to-do relatives, by the way, scattered over the world. You didn't know that, did you? The younger brother, your father's brother, is a sort of tycoon in South America. Your father never wanted for anything when ht wu free." "Im glad of that But 1 don’t particularly care about the well-to-do relatives.” She smiled. “But perhaps if I told Mn.. Merryman about them, she wouldn't treat me as if 1 were the little girl who wasn’t there." Mike chuckled. Tlien, "You haven't anything to be ashamed of.

my shoulder. The debt was paid the hard way.” “The slate is clean. Now let's cat!” They came out Into the warm night burdened by thousands of bright lights. Lights, Kit thought! Not the darkness but lights that would never go out for her again. She winced when she remembered what she had said to Kirk . . . “Do you want .o kiss me now?” Like an hysterical schoolgf '. not like the daughter of a man who had made a mistake and paid for It. Walking beside Mike she asked with a guilty little smile, "Am X so ungrown-up, Mike?" He frowned. His eyes were amused. “That sounds like Tracy. A few years ago she was always wandering whether or not she was grown-up. No, you re not quite. Kit. At least you weren'» until tonight. How could you be when your life has been smooth and pleasant until recently? You've never had a bad knock before. Bad knocks shake you out of adolescence. You have to defend yourself. You're on your own . , ." She thought, Mike and I get along well. But when I'm with Kirk the sparks fly . . . We leave things unsaid and undone. Could Mike explain that? But Mike was saying, "You’re the first person I've told about the short story. 1 thought I’d burst if 1 didn't tell somebody. 1 felt like crowing but all 1 can really think of is, Tt can be done. It can be done.' Kit, I'm taking you to a place where the steaks are thick and the music good. 1 even want to dance . , ." And when they were sitting at a table in a crowded but cool restaurant, be said, "You re sweet to listen to all this prattle about me. It’s a long story. Only 1 can fully enjoy the triumph. I feel ptous and reformed" He was telling the truth, he thought It was swell to tell the truth and not to live with his tongue in his cheek, belittling, arguing, criticising. And he felt humble, too. Never tn his life had he felt so humble as when he had held in his hand the check for five hundred dollars. “I'm going to move. Kit I may ask you to help me fix up the new place.” A cheerful apartment, he thought, and a desk rather than a card table on which to write. And maybe a sir ill place in the country when he «d made enough to quit hie job t d devote himself exclusively to writing. And then—a wife? Hi grinned. “The winner of the Irish sweepstakes couldn’t feel as good as I feel tonight 1 told you I even wanted to dance. Let s dance." He liked to dance with Kit Be liked to uugb with her. H r liked to look at her and talk to her.

He liked ncr sympathy, ner lively mind, ter low of beauty and justice and honesty. He liked her thoughts and feelings, the young glow of her, that “something” about her that hurt your throat when she locked at you. She was real and young and lovely. The whole of Kit was in her eyes—clear and candid and a little eager. A man wanted to marry a girl like that in his mind despite all the other girls he had liked for various reasons he knew that he wanted to marry a girl like Kit and that such a marriage would be fine and enduring and that they would never cease to enjoy each other. Love? Love was such a far-away word, he thought. It was a frightening word. When you realized the full meaning and power of the word, you were afraid you couldn't live up to it. When they returned to the tabic. Mike sat straight, his hands folded on the edge of the table, his brown eyes very sober. "Kit, would you—would you marry me?" Kit said spontaneously, "But you don’t love me, Mike . . “No. no, I don't. Kit. I don't feel the way a man is supposed to feel when he is proposing. I don’t look silly or moon-stricken or that I-can't-Uve-without-you look. I never felt more practical in my life. I’ve never been in love. Kit. I’ve been attracted and infatuated but I’ve never lost my head or my sense of direction. No girl has ever been a goddess. She's just been a girl, another human being, with lacks and faults for all her physical or mental appeal. But you . . . Well, would you? I'd be very good to you. Cruelty is something 1 was happily bom without . . Kit looked at him. Then she shook her head. “I am grown-up, Mike. 1 must be. Because ”hile 1 know you'd be a good husband, I know also that you aren't the husband for me. I’m sorry. There has to be something we haven't We could make a successful marriage because we'd both work hard to make it successful But there’s a difference between a successful marriage and a h. ppy marriage. Ours would have missing sparks. Doot you see?" She kept her eyes on him when she said, “The sparks fly thick and fast when I’m with Kirk. They fly so thick and fast I can't make myself understood and everything gets all mixed up, a sort of wonderful. crazy mix-up ~." Mike looked at her soberly. "So It's Kirk. I'm pretty thick. I should have guessed it I did at first and then ... Well, why don't you do something about it?" “I have. Everything wroag." Ha chuckled. dh
