The things that make a soldier great and send him out to die, To face the flaming camon's mouth nor ever question why, Are lilacs by the little porch, the rows of tulips red, The peonies and pansies, too, the old petunia bed, The grass plot where his children play, the roses on the wall, "Tis these that make a soldier great, He's fighting for them all. --EDGAR A.

MYERS, Ph.D. In this column today I have in mind especially the baby in con- gested city areas, the baby in rural places, and the baby who goes travelling, Just because hot weather may increase digestive disturbance and intestinal troubles in bables and young children, the mother can af- ford to take special precautions Especially in rural places, the baby's drinking water should be boiled. It won't hurt him if the water is not cold. Fruit and vegetables are safer when cooked, though cooking might destroy some of their vita- mins, Anyway, we can be sure the fruit and vegetables are well wash- ed; this also to remove poisons left by spraying. . > " Boil Baby's Milk In city or country, s safe way is to boil the baby's milk. H. Kent Tenney," Jr., M.D., associate Pro- fessor of Pediatrics, University of Wisconsin Medical Suhool, advises (in "Let's Talk About Your Baby"); "About continuing the use of boil- ed milk: I believe it is a good plan to keep it up until the baby is about two years old. It is more easily digested and much safer than raw milk. Pasteurization probably makes the milk perfectly safe but does not affect its digestibility. The fear of the constipating effect of boiled milk would not influence my opin- ion even if it were true. And any= how, a bit of constipation is a much safer thing to have around the house than a tendency to-diarrhea. "The very common use of boiled milk in the rteatment of diarrhea is for the purpose of preventing the entrance of tough curds into an already irritated bowel and not for any specific constipating ef- fect." Concerning diarrhea. ney says: "In line with this question of dietary restrictions, I want to say a few words about diarrhea, which, In spite of our efforts, is still a large contributor to infant mortal- ity and morbidity. As I have told you before, diarrhea is a very un- trustworthy neighbor to have around and the younger the child the more treacherous it is. In other words, the potential dangers of a diarrhea Dr. Ten- at one year are far greater than four yearr. Now, while there to dg is to replace the fluid th » many types and causes of d : and it is not worth while for you learn all gbout them, still there & some things you should know that if your child develops the ¢ dition you can make some die changes. Watch Diet "Regardless of the type of d rhea, it is wise to reduce to a min mum the fat, sugar, and rough in the diet. This can be readi done by using skimmed, thoroug! ly boiled milk, and omitting sug cereals, and vegetables. The d tion of a teaspoonful or so of u sweetened chocolate to the milk is frequently effective, as also the use of some of the prote powders such as Mead's Casec. "But the really important hin is being lost, by giving plenty water. I told you a few minut ago that when the baby had fev you could give him any Kind fruit' juice, but in the case of d rhea it is best to stick to water or very weak tea, as 1 are somewhat laxative. : 'If his diarrhea 'is complicated E vomiting, the necessity for fluids even greater. Here you must si with minute quantities, building u gradually as he demonstrates h ability to retain them. When comes to the treatment of the typ of vomiting that is not complies by diarrhea, the sysiem is much th same in regard to quantities, by here we use much sweetened 31 juice or at times just plain sugar.

DO 0 GUIDE NEWS LETTER FROM CAMP Cameron Lake, Fenelon Falls, July 20, 1940. Dear Parents: July 17 was a red letter day for the Girl Guides, when we all set out on our two weeks camping trip. It took two busses ana a seven- passenger car to take care of our dunnange and ourselves. Of course, to add to the enjoyment of the trip, we had a flat. We cheered our driver by singing for him while he changed the tire. In any case our cheerful noise made it impossible for us to hear any bad language he might be using while performing the operation. The weether was ideal and when we arrived on the camp site, we were met by a lot of very brown Guides, who were all prepared to leave for home, wishing, I am sure, that they were just n:- riving instead of departing. They had left everything in such goo. order, it took us & very short time to get settled in. Now we are all hard at work. Our great aim is to send every camper home second class achieve as much of our first cl work as possible. We have decided to have a cam gazette published twice a week, ™ editor is Dorcas Beaton, assisted b Edna Wall and Ruth Bowman. Th price is 25c a copy; this price is," course, to stop any possible s as the poor editor has no typ er. My big family are all well an happy. Look for- more news nex Friday. I may be able to persuad the editor of the Camp Gazette include a copy for your reading. Sincerely yours, Alma Hobbs, C.O. From Mrs. O. S. Hobbs, Div Commissioner.
