In Congress

Times Special WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.—A form-

ula for detecting symptoms of isolationism in congress was set forth by the National League of

. Women Voters today.

£

The league declared that national fst sentiment in the United States is growing with every gain made on the military front, but warned all citizens to beware of the congressman who says at one and the same time:

1.. That he would be willing to promote a better feeling with other nations, but advocates a U.S. trade policy that is bound to make enemies. : 2. That he wants an insured peace after this war, but would rely on & tremendous U. S. army and navy —a course that would invite another armament race and another war. 3. That he would be willing, as a kindly gesture, to see the U. S. join & world peace movement, but still fails, as did the isolationists before Pearl Harbor, to see that co-opera- | tion is an essential protection of] v. 8. interests.

wail, Believe it or not, in his three short months of existence, young Tim has been a truly good baby. Not that we can take any bows for this. A young baby will be good if his food is plentiful and agrees with him, and if he gets lots of sleep and loving. Tim has had these aplenty. Timothy has greeted every meal as though he were a waif abandoned at our doorstep, and had never in his life known the feeling of a full stomach, # # » ‘ EVERY MEAL, that is, until one Tuesday. For on that day our young man made the momentous discovery that the person who gave him food was the very same "person who was such fun to play with! From that day Timothy began to grin at his mother during his mealtime: This grinning rather crept up on him. First his mother blamed it on a need to burp. And sure enough, another burp and he went back to eating in earnest. But there came a day, along about Thursday, when Tim grinned .and played even after the burp. Could another mechanism be starting to work in another die rection? A good guess! Mother waited for Tim te finish, and he came back to his food with relish. The next day, however, neither extra burp nor elimination could be blamed. There Tim lay, smiling and playing when he should be eating. Perhaps the heat had killed his appetite? Mother tried giving him

meal. Perhaps she should pay less attention to, him while he ate? Mother tried reading a magazine with what she hoped was an’ uninterested look on her face. Well, as the doctor would say, this treatment served merely to alleviate the symptoms. It did not cure, ” ¥ ® : S80 ON SUNDAY MORNING, an hour before his christening, young Tim was giving notice that smiling is definitely more fun than eating, - ~ What was his mother to do? Timmy's stomach was not full. If he didn’t fill his stomach he would sooner or later notice that empty" feeling, and let forth a wail. But if he fill his stomach, it was plain he would have to be coaxed. . Which should she choose—good eating habits for Timothy, or a

habits, by all means! Tim ate for seven minutes, and played at the idea for the rest of the 20 while - mother preserved a stony silence. Then uncoaxed, half-empty Timothy was dressed in his best bib and tuckef and whisked away to church. ; ' By the time Timmy could catch his breath and begin to miss that good food he had refused, the minister was saying, “Timothy Ha—" * And you know the rest.

Corduroy Requires {Gentle Washing

. Many of the colorful corduroy garments are washable. But—before you launder—be sure

‘| they will wash well and the color

will hold. When buying a corduroy garment, see if there is a label that gives special laundering directions. If so, it’s wise to follow them closely. Corduroy takes best to gentle washing. Use lukewarm water and mild suds—plenty of suds because corduroy is‘ bulky. Squeeze water through-the fabric, but don’t twist, rub or mash. If you.do, you may disturb ‘the pile’ so the fabric will

| A ‘Kitchen’ Trade Treaty

Times Special

SPRINGFIELD, Mass., Dec. 11.—

British and American housewives joined hands across the sea today in a reciprocal “kitchen” trade treaty as local culinary artists began preparing dishes in‘ the best English style. Women workers and wives and mothers of a local firm’s employees here hope to set a pattern for the rest of the nation by exchanging recipes and food economy hints with British women at a Bournville, England, plant. They are now compiling special New England recipes to be sent overseas. The plan was originated by George A. Mohlman, president of the Springfield war plant. Arrangements for the exchange of “food for victory” literature were made by the British ministry of information. . According to the nine-page pamphlet prepared from British recipes .and food economy. hints, the English plant is famed for its public food hints centers, established even before those of the ministry of food.

Quilted Cuties

A bit of quilting here and there adds a touch of welcome warmth, yet doesn’t add uncalled-for spending. Rayon satin, cotton velveteen and just plain cotton become gifts superb when they come in quilted housecoats, perky quilted berets with pouch bags to match, quilted vestees and ever so many other practical things.
