Q3
Rev. J. Frank Norris, pastor of
the First Baptist Church, will
soon make an extended lecture
tour thru the north.
He will conduct a two-weeks’
meeting at Tremont Temple, Bos-
ton, beginning January 1. Other
meetings and special lectures will
be held at Euclid-ave Baptist
Church in Cleveland, Calvary Bap-
tist Church in New York, before
the Ministers' Union of Brooklyn,
and before the Ministerial Alliance
of Greater New York.
Invitations to the formal open-
ing of the Texas hotel are out.
The affair will be held Satur-
day night, beginning with dinner
at 7:30 p. m. Dancing in the din-
ing rooms will follow.
Admission will be strictly by
card, at $5 a person. Manager Lee
says it will be one of the most
elaborate entertainments in Tex-
as hotel history.
Managers from the largest
hotels in the state and nation
have been invited.
Americans spend almost as
much money for chewing gum as
for foreign missions.
Bright lights will be turned on
in the Lakeside Addition Satur-
day night, according to R. A.
Hunter, light commissioner.
Eighty additional lights are being
installed. The new system covers
the area south of Magnolia-ave to
the city limits and between the
I&GN and MK&T railway tracks.

Mrs. Smith-Wilkinson, who
plans to dazzle America with her
costly wardrobe, caused a sensa-
tion at the Victory Ball in Lon-
don. She literally “blazed” her
way into the Prince of Wales’ box
wearing 75,000 diamonds and
pearls insured for $>000,000..
J. M. Scott, local attorney, has
received notice of his appointment
as deputy state insurance com-
missioner. Scott will succeed j
Charles V. Johnson, who resigned I
last September.
As theseold nights com: moth-
ers will be especially interested in
warm clothing for the children
and in bed coverings. I have
written about sleeping bags sev-
eral times, but it will do no harm
to repeat these suggestions here.
A sleeping bag is made by folding
a soft old blanket in the middle
and stitching up one end and the
side. If preferred, the end may
be left open and tied with tapes.1
This is more convenient as long as
the baby is in diapers. Across
the top put tapes or large snaps at
several places, and fasten the bag
thus over the child's shoulders.
Older children should sleep with
the arms outside, but babies and
young children may be covered
entirely. In the coldest weather it
may be wise to use two bags.
Warm night clothing can be worn |
also, and in extremely cold weath-
er the child may have to wear a |
sweater, a night-cap and mittens. I
Thus dressed, the child can sleep
on the porch, or in a room with
the windows open without danger
of being chilled, and the mother
can sleep all night without having
to rouse herself every little while j
to see if the child is properly cov-
ered. The size of the bag must be
according to the size of the child,
but should always be large enough
to afford an abundance of room to
move about freely in every direc-
tion.
ised to marry you, you may safe-
ly assume that she cares deeply
for you.
It may be that her family, as a
whole, are not demonstrative and
that she therefore is somewhat shy
about accepting your caresses,
even before her relatives. Or, it
may be that she carries a step
further than is usual the conven-
tion which says that kissing in
public is not in good taste. .Per-
baps she has been rightly taught
that a kiss is the symbol of gen-
uine affection and should be re-
garded as a sacred thing. not to be
lightly given or received. You
should respect her feeling about
this and should not doubt her re-
gard for such a reason.
have found a job in Fort Worth,
but I have family responsibilities.
The family must have some of the
money I make.
SHELTER AND FOOD
I cannot stay at the new YWCA
hotel because room and board
there and downtown lunches
would be at least $45 a month. I
would have but $3 left for clothes,
the family, entertainment, laun-
dry,saving, and medical expenses.
The only thing I can find is
room and board at $8 a week in
a shabby boardinghouse and I
must have two other girls in my
stufffy little room. So I take it.
I'm clerking in a drygoods store
and I must look neat. My ward-
robe is, as always, completely lack-
ing in some things girls think
they must have and in some things
that I know I must have. Some
of my clothes are serving second,
third and even fourth season.
There are some things that must
be purchased, for I cannot live
just on room and board. I have
14 a week for these other things.
I am truly thankful that I al-
ready have the clothes that I do
have. I am going to buy my coat
first. But I have learned that I
cannot take it from the store un-
til the payments are made.
It will take eight weeks to pay
my coat out. Goodness! that will
be after Christmas, and where are
the shqes, stockings, hat and fam-
ily help coming from? Not to
speak* of amusements and carfare?
I’m in despair. It cannot be
done—unless I cut a great many
notches out of my standard of liv-
ing.
Yet the Texas legislature has
refused a $12 minimum wage, at
the behest of the business men!
How can those girls live who

How can they?
to let me talk to him!” I heard
her say to the girl. "Tell Aim it is
Mrs. Lila Ames and that it is
important,” she went on.
"But I must talk to him,” she
persisted.
The next minute she turned
from the telephone with a half
hysterical cry.
"She said he didn't want to talk
to me!" she half sobbed. "Do you
think he could have meant it? Do
you—pb—”
Lila was crying, nervously.
"I’m going down there!” she
was drying her eyes. The words
came in a fierce, jerky sentence.
"I’ll go down and see—see if he
really doesn’t want to talk to me!”
She was tearing off the dressing
gown and pulling on some tailored
clother over the sheerest of French
undergarments.
“Don’t you think it would be
better to stay here and rest, Mrs.
Ames?” I suggested.
."No—I’m going—I've got to go
—and won’t you go with me?
Betty Brown Imagines Five Millions Going
To Waste Here
When Nick asked where Crook-
abone lived he was told “across
the street from the chimney-sweep,
and next door to the toymaker."
And when he asked where the toy-
maker lived he was told "across
the street from the chimney-sweep
and next door to Crookabone." •
When he asked how big Crooka-
bone’s cellar was he was told to
“multiply the length by the width,
and the ceiling was as far above
the floor as the floor was below
the ceiling."
He tried once more. “Where's
Kip?" he asked, just as Nancy had
done. “Above his shoes!” came
the answer at once. And of course
the gnome who said it thought
that he was telling the truth. But
wondered that its magnetism
hadn't kept Philip Ames to his
own hearthstone.
I was told by that voice, which
said it belonged to Mrs. Ames,
that Mr. Ames was not at home,

"I wish I could get out of the
party—but it's too late to recall
any invitations." She was think-
lag aloud. Then to me, “You must
forgive me If I seem to be not my-
self today—I’m—not.”
The next 30 minutes we spent
talking of the party.
"Won’t you try to get Philip
again—, know that girl must
have forgotten to tell him?” Lila
finally broke out.
I called, but was told again that
Mr. Ames was not there.
"Call his home,” said Mrs.
Ames at length. “I must talk to
him—and have him here.”
The well-modulated contralto

was sipping her coffee, "and there
are some things which I think
should be done—some changes.
"I wonder if you—” she was
hesitating where heretofore she

I have just been thinking how
I could spend $12 a week, which
some business men in Texas con-
tend is too high for a woman's
minimum wage.
I’m going to pretend that I’m
paid certain salaries and have cer-
tain obligations to meet and Just
see, by investigating the way, girls
spend their money and the way
they live, how they manage to
live on $12 and more and less.
So today I'm making $12 a
week. My people are living in an-
other city, which does not provide
work for all its population. I

tail, and goes on through fish,

Q.—Is it wise to take the baby
into the mother's bed in cold
weather?
A.—Read what I have just writ-
ten about sleeping bags. It is far
better to have the children sleep
alone at all seasons. Bes can be ■
heated in various ways. Bags of
shelled corn are said to be very
good fcr this purpose.
Q.—My baby has a yellowish
discharge from the ears. Is this
dangerous?
A.—I should take him at once
to a good children's specialist, or
an ear specialist. The faculty of
keen hearing is too precious to run
even the shadow of a risk of in-
juring it. -
