Clearing Up Rash In Young Baby '

(|NE of the problems which is Jiktfly to confront the mothers of yipi|ng babies is diaper rash. The d|tU>rder is not serious but it does make the baby uncomfortable and(, hence cross. Moreover, therfe isi/j qlways the chance of the inflamed,, skin becoming infected. W hjive a simple method winch, riot only prevents diaper ra4> J>ht' which also helps to heal it after it has occurred. It irivdlrea nothing more than giving thd diapers a final rinsing in a aoljition of a chemical known as |alk|tl - dimenthylbenzyl - amino, hiujni chloride » after they have he*i-' washed and ringed ip the onffinary way. The results of this procedure were studied in the ' ‘of 61 baljiea. Only those barbies ware of the skin restricted to the area cowered by the diaper. The babies n ° diarrhea or evidences of an# other dipeases. \|'hen the diaper rash occurs, the* diapers usually smell strongly <d ammonia. This is <km to the lac germs-from the hovel movements prodyice the ■ am notiia substances in rhe urine. H carrying out the treatment, thci mothers wore Iriwtructed not (io |um- any medication, such gs lM>4dar» or dla P<*rj* wer® washed and rlflsed a*. tiHt&k using a datprgent rather -. tlm|l drying, 'they were rinsed In lib' | \ ' ■IIS.- . ■ ■ .

Is merely going to defend itself, and if someone, In spite of| Its peaceful ( jumps on it,\' I believe In using what we have in defending ourselves.” \ With Eisenhower at the 'head of »bur > military forces, we can breathe a little easier. He does not; believe in defeat. I I \ : ■V.'

Both- have annexed (the territory and .remonstrances have been filed by\ property owners against the mergers. We do not see why industrial plants should oppose annexation to cities, ’for there is little difference between township and city tax rates, due to rural schodl operating costs and taxes for new consolidated buildings. If New Haven wins the contest, it will become one of the wealthiest small towns in the S,late. for'more than $17,000,000?of taxable property will be' added; to its assessment rolls. All industrial property in Decatur is/within (he ■ ' ■ 1,, corporate limits, the nprth area being a part of corporation, with only a difference, of cents in the.tax rates, the higher levy.applying in |hat territory. ‘ I — o —o—| The Reconstruction finance Corp., has’-been one of the splendid agencies of government. !It was established- during the Hoover administration and in the thirties camp to the aid Os banks, railroads anil industries, by making government loans to those 4n , distress.

\ ■ CH/PTEK TWENTY-TWO I THE INDIANS, walking tn single file, were close. Suddenly Erron caught Jennet's arm and drew her with some imperativeness to the edge ot the path. “Let 'em by," ne muttered. He tightened hie band on her arm. ' 7 One by one they passed, their faces expressionless. Fantastic figures in their feathers and ribbons and the silver bracelets on arms and ankles. Peter, last tn the tine, tn hie buckskin shirt and leggings, seemed of another kind, though ne walked as they did, with eyes straight ahead, not the slightest sign on his face that he was aware of Jennet's nearness. A kind ot sob rose in her throat. He was going to pass her by without looking at her, as he’d tried to do on the road that afternoon. Her face flaming at the boldness ot her impulse, she Jerked herseff away from Erron’s hold, stepped into the path. She said, trying desperately to make her voice gay, I i"Mr. Brant, must you always pass me by without polite greeting ?“ Peter had bad to stop, for she blocked his way. He bowed. “Good afternoon. Miss Darby." Their eyes met—a pleading in Jennet's she did not know was betraying, the quick darkening in Peter’s she wanted' to see. The next instant it was gone. Peter said, “Now may 1 go on?” “Pretty high and mighty, that young Brant,” said Erron. throwing a scowling look at the Mohawk’s straight back. Jennet saw the scowl. She might have attributed it to jealousy on Erron’s part, in which she would have found 0 mild pleasure, had she not been so confused by conflicting loy and disappointment. She retorted. “He's—he’s cultured.” “Oh. 1 know all about his going to school tn England! The learning ip these parts wasn't held good enough for film!" v "He may be a great chief [of the Mohawks someday—if he does not go back to \ his mother’s people." ( “That’s It —he's half-Mohawk and that half is tpo much for me!" They had come to the edge of the bluff; before them the lake stretched to a misty horizon. But neither of them saw it Erton, roused out of his shyness by his jealousy, was looking darkly at her and she was finding it a vent to her disturbed feelings to quarrel with him. “Only very stupid people are as intolerant as ypu" she said with•rtngly. "Ths Mohawks are most civihaed now—l have heard Uncle Quint say that" "Yeh, but come w*r— I doubt they've forgotten tow to swing

She ( turned away from him but not before he saw the tears that had brimmed in her eyes. She walked down the path, her need high. General Potter had Just finished hts address to the militia when, with Erron following \ her, she Joined lyioda and per new-found frienda “We were looking for you,” said Rhoda, a little tightly. "Mr. Piers escorted me to the well for a drink ot water,” Jennet explained. “Thank you, Mr. Piers,” she said tn dismissal. ’’Your aunt has said she'd enjoy a cup with us at my house. That IS, if we can persuade; you to accompany us.” There Was a little disapproval on Mrs. Pratt’s face, in per voice. It said that proper young indies In the Buffalo village did not go off walking with young men. For Rhoda the invitation to drink tea with these new acquaintances crowned every other experience of the day. She talked about it at supper. Os Mrs. Pratt’s parlor, the furniture in it ot mahogany wood. The curtains had edges of fine tatting; They’d drunk real China tea. She tolr 1 it all to old Sarah in her corner, but every now and then her eyes Went to Quint. He suspected she was thinking of the house he had promised her, in which she’d have as good as Mrs. Pratt had. The day had left him depressed. He couldn’t put the injustice to Andrew Duval out of his mind. He kept seeing himself in Duval’s place, shunned by neighbors, marked as suspect, it could well happen—he’d invited it, today,.. Caton had seen him there in the door of ..the smithy. And what would it do to these budding ambitions ot Rhoda’s T 6 •• • i It had become Jennet’s habit, as it was Quint's, to go out of doors for a few minutes before breakfast to fill her lungs with the clear fresh air. The morning after Inspection Day she came down from her bedchamber a little earlier than usual, spoke good morning to old Sarah and Becky and Rhoda in the kitchen, opened the kitchen door, and ran outside—where she met Erron Piers, coming around the corner of the house.

' (Rev. O. C. Busse, St. Paul’s Lutheran Chureh) “BLESSINGS OF GOD” \ ' 1 -- ■ ,\ Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us f with benefits, I even the God of our salvation. Psalm 68, 19. One of the characteristics of God is His goodness- Wonderful are the blessings dally bestowed upon His creatures. Who can sunshine, food, raiment,, health, family, friends, liberty, freedom of our Father in Heaven. The air we breathe, the water we drink, sunshine, food, raiment, health, family\ friends, liberty, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom\of religious worship and many others too numerous to mention. Wonderful blessings indeed! And\it is only too sad if we bang . our heads in the face of such blessings and act as though, we havei nothing to be grateful for, talking about things we haven’t got, and oi/jrlooking the abundance of things we possess. Even more wonderful than all these materigb blessings is the great salvation provided for us through the sacrificial death of Christ. It is a great salvation for many reasons. It is great because of the surpassing love that conceived it; great because of \ the condescending gracb that carried it into execution; great because it gives the only answer how malp who has disturbed the \ harmony between God and Himself by his sins can be brought back into a relationship of harmony. Suffice it to say, thdt of all God’s works, a full and free redemption through His Son, Jesus Christ, is the greatest. Accept this salvation offered by our Heavenly Father for the sake of the innocent suffering and death of His Son and you shall find peace, forgiveness, and a blessed hope for everlasting life. , \ ' > ’ " \
