The PASSING PROCESSION

News of the Week Boiled Down

Last week was ladies week in aviation circles. Miss Amelia Earhart did what three woman have died attempting to do—flew across the 'Atlantic. Miss Earhart, Wilmer Stultz and Louis Gordon flew to Burry Port, Wales, from Newfoundland, in

twenty hours and forty-nie minutes. Miss Mabel 8011, who has been talking about making an attempt to pin that honor on her coatr sleeve ever since Lindy flew across, returned to New Yorw from Harbor Grace and admitted defeat. Miss 801 l and two pilots had been waiting there for favorable weather conditions for a flight to beat Miss Earhart across. # Miss Earhart, Boston society girl and social worker, is In London buying clothes and being feted. Although she is a flier of several years experience, she didn't pilot the plane on the trip across. But the big question of the flight hasn’t been determined yet—did Amelia do any “back-seat.” driving on that 2,000-mile voyage?

CAL CATCHES TROUT

President Coolidge sent Miss Earhart his crongratulations from Brule River, Wis. Cal, you know, is vacationing there. Cal caught six trout last week. And the summer White House attaches, were so excited they issued an official bulletin with full details. A 59-year-old Indian, John La Roque, has been appointed the President’s guide. La Roque is said to be even more silent than Coolidge. Cal is wearing a ten-gallon cowboy hat and a pair of cowboy boots left over from his Black Hills vacation of last year on his fishing tours. Senator William M. Butler visited Coolidge a few days. Butler isn’t chairnaan of the Republican national committee any more. Secretary of the Interior Hubert Work was named Inst week to head the committee and diiect the campaign to elect Herbert Hoover president. J. R. Nutt, president of the Cleveland Trust Company, the country’s third largest financial institution, was named committee treasurer.

DEMOCRATS’ BIG SHOW

In the meantime the Democrats got ready for their big show down at Houston, where they will pick a candidate to try and beat Hoover. Governor Ritchie of Maryland dropped out of the contest for the Presidential nomination. That cheered Governor A1 Smith’s supporters. Senator Jim Reed of Missouri still is in the field, however. As the time nears for the convention the wet and dry question is the biggest issue, t Governor A1 came out again on the question. He still feels as he always has, that prohibition should be left to the States, but that existing laws should be enforced, he said. v. The question is will the Democrats adopt a platform declaring for strict dry law enforcement as the Democrats did, or will they be silent on the prohibition question. And if the strict dry plank is included, can they nominate ‘‘moist’’ A1 Smith.

Don’t Make aloy Out of Baby° “Babies Have'NervesBy ruth Brittain Much of the nervousness in older children can be traced to the overstimulation during infancy, caused by regarding baby as a sort of mated toy for the amusement of parents, relatives and friends. Baby may be played with, but not lor more than a quarter of an hour to an hour dally. Beyond that, being handled, tickled, caused to laugh or even scream, will sometimes result in vomiting, and invariably causes irritability, clying or sleeplessness. Fretfulness, crying and sleeplessness from this caus r can easily be avoided by treating baby with more consideration, but when you just can’t see what is making baby restless or upset, better give him a fevdrops of pure, harmless Castona. It’s amazing to see how quickly it calms baby’s nerves and soothes him to sleep; yet it contains no drugs or opiates. It is purely vegetable—the recipe Is on the wrapper. Leading physicians prescribe it for colic, cholera, diarrhea, constipation. gas on stomach and bowels, feverishness, loss of sleep and all other “upsets” of babyhood. Over 25 million bottles used a year shows its overwhelming popularity. With each bottle of Castoria, you get a book on Motherhood, worth its weight in gold. Look for Cha&. H. Fletcher’s signature on the package so you’ll get genuine Castoria. There are many imitations.—Advertisement.
