EIGHTY-FIVE

OF "FINEST" ARE INSPECTED Babes of Many Races, Degrees and Ages, But All "Perfect" Examined. By EMMA L. FCTTA. Whitewater. Warner. Flnley and Sevastopol schools were the scenes of many a smile and a few walls of displeasure Monday afternoon when the babies of the community surrounding each of the schools were weighed, measured and examined by physicians assisted by the young women of the city. , . A row of baby buggies parked outside each examination station was the advertisement of a lively time which was going on inside. The lively time was accompanied with goo-goos, gurgles, open-mouthed objections, adorable and winning emlles, and a hum. of conversation as mothers whispered "sweet things" into her baby's ear. . Consolation, and encouragement on the part of mother and the young women who were assisting with the tests was met with various receptions on the part of baby, who was having an afternoon out and appreciated it according to his own notions. Eighty-five of the "finest babies in town" were up for examination, and more than once a doting parent was told to his own surprise that his baby weighed more than he thought, or that some "mean old trouble" which had been pestering the baby had now disappeared entirely. Such news as this was worth the while of a trip up to the schools, a number of moth era agreed. Love at First Sight. The cosmopolitan vlrture of Richmond was no where more directly noticeable than at Whitewater school, where babies and little children of Italian. Austrian. Irish, Hungarian, Polish, colored and just American descent arrived for their yearly "once over." A vivacious little Irish maid, who will be one year old next fall took a decided liking to a slightly older, but much more demure Italian girl. Although relations were rather strained at first, a complete understanldng appeared to reign at the end of the conference. A very wee colored baby also showed attachment for the colleen. Another sma'l baby, a twin emphatically explained to everyone with a generous and lasting howl, that she considered it no place for her and that her carriage should "home James!" immediately. A beautiful specimen of a man, not yet three years old. employed time waiting for the doctor's attention by singing some operatic airs, or something?, for the audience. When all the babies and others up to six took up , the tune, the choral effect was beautiful. No Baby. One seven-year-old was accosted as he was entering Warner building. "Are you going in to get weighed and measured?" was the question. "Certainly not,' came the answer, cool and crisp. "I am above the age!" Du; apologies were tendered.

FLOWERED CHIFFON IS LINGERIE FAD

W -n ? m V m i P$

The lingerie modes are ever changing, but the flowered chiffon and georgette underthings which made their appearance early in the spring are still in high favor. Here is a Eet which one of the French shops is showing. It is pale gTeen chiffon with dainty pink rosebuds scattered all over it. Satin fluting of an orchid shade used with lace for trimming. The number of babies examined yesterday was not quite equal to that of last year. Miss Ethel Clark, secretary of the Social Service bureau, said Tuesday morning. This is due, it is thought, to the fact that the examination last year was considered a war emergency measure. A large number of babies will be brought for examination at Starr, Vaile, Hibberd, Jos eph Moore and Baxter schools at 2:3G Wednesday afternoon, it is hoped, however. The municipality of Portland, Ore., will engage In the construction of 5,000 houses at once as a means of absorbing the surplus labor and of utilizing some of the immense lumber supply of that state.

This fine lady brought with her, as exhibits of the work dose by her Mission, two little baby girls. )uat able to toddle around on of, them a little Chinese girl and the other a little Japanese girl While T was talking to her the little Japanese irlrl toddled v alongside of me. took hold of tcit hand, looked Into my face with the sweetest smile T ever saw as much as to say, "Tou will pre tect and love me, won't you?" And a little child shall lead them This little baby srirl led rn around the quarters of the Sa: Francisco Mission, trylns; to tell me in her own little way: "See how we are taken care of by this arood lady. Txok at me a little waif, not wanted by either my papa or mamma a stranger, yet she took me in and clothed me and fed me, just as she does other little girls like me. Am I too sentimental T confess that the confidence this little baby girl showed she had In me was a great inspiration and made me feel, as It will you when vou see her, what a grand work !s being- done under the auspices of the Methodist Church, which originated this Centenary Celebration, solely for the purpose of demonstrating to you. good people, what ran be done for the helpless and homeless In countries throughout the world by lust showing heart and In teres In humankind. I believe that this and other exhibits st the CENTENARY CEIEBRATION COLUMBUS will profoundly Impress you. besides giving vou a liberal education as to conditions that exist In countries other than America, and will teach you how necessary It is for the American people, endowed beyond all other peoples r the world with rich blessings an opportunities, to give sertour thought to the unfortunates and to help them in every way they can. .There is nothing but brlghtnee. to be seen everywhere at the Ohio" State Fair Grounds.. Columbus, where the Centenary Celebration In staged. None of the gruesome things of life are ahown. Tou see everywhere the evolution that has taken place In many countries of the globe where human hearts and brains and hands and human sacrifices have been employed to uplift humanity. ' All of these good things are !mpreaaed on your mind without anv attempt on the part of any body to do so. The pictures arthere the blackboards, so to speak; and pictures and blackboards never misrepresent. Tou cannot fall to get Into thevf pirlt of this great Centemarje Celebration Columhua. T"oa vei bound to think that tf la themost wonderful exposition you X have ever seen. Just as I think: It is and as anybody else thafi , has seen it thinks It Is. with the strains of muslo from Ihe Rainbow Band from tho Band of Colored Boys from th Trombone Chorus of one hundred nieces from sixteen negro quartets from the great pipe organ in the Coliseum that peals forth wonderful strains under tha artistic touch of one of the greatest organists In the world from the great chorus of S000 human voices that one hears while the rreat pageant Is shown In the Coliseum and finally from Cincinnati's Symphony Orchestra, consisting of seventv-flve pieces you can understand why everybody who visits this wonderful exposition goes away thrilled and filled with deep aporeciatlon of the master minds that plnred the Centenary Celebration Columbus. Tou will miaa the greatest opnortunity of your life If you fall to witness this Centenary Celebration. We are in the summer season, when the dava are long aid hapov when It is easv to drop our work for a dav or two so whv not set aside the time necessary to visit Columbus and apend all the time there witnessing the marvelous features of this reallyBig Show. General admlaaion Is only SO eenta. which carries you through the whole day. but In the evening you will wish to see the great pareant In the Coliseum and that will cost you 50 cents extra ; that'a all but If you start early In the morning and continue until 11 o'clock at night costing you one dollar all told, you will gather for yourself a greater amount of pleasure and contentment and information than one dollar has ever bought you before In all your life.
