J U L Y .10, 1020 A CRYING DEMAND ("). Iu a recent one o f his most interest iug storie s, Fred Lock ley, who g e ts up editorial features for a Portland daily and who prides himself upou being a good listener, which is not necessarily denying that he can not be a good e n te rtain e r w h e n ,th e exigencies o f the occasion demand, relates listening to a person who said he ( Lock l e y ) w as afra id to tackle a live question. l ie goes on to quote the person who ehal lenged Ins editorial daring as statiu g that the livest question o f today was how to raise more American babies to prevent the country from coming into the possession o f the bab ies o f foreign born parents. Wc should say that this was a cry ing demand, provided that we admit that more American bab ies are d esir able. The one who complains o f the short age o f production o f American -bora babies puts fo rth an unusual claim — that the adoption o f more modern methods o f raising babies has de creased the production, instead of b n n g u ig alniut the increase that pre vails through development of modern methods iu other forms o f business. there are all kinds o f expensive fol derols. or. i f the mother remains at home, there must be a nurse who i- trained not to cook, a cook who ii trained not to nurse. a man who is trained t o ' n e i t h e r cook nor nurse— and you have neighbors who, i f you deny your w ife any o f these things, say you are a niggardly old Cightwad and" value a few paltry |>en nirs above the life o f y o u r 'w i f e . Possibly this complain ant is partially right, but even so he d o e s n ’t carry his problem f a r enough. * • * , I t is possible to bring children into the world and to get by the neighbors with f a r less expense than that shown iu his detailed statem ent. P a re n ts learn very l ittle about, the expense of babies until those bab ies get to an age where they are o ffend ed at being called child ren— the age when they th in k t h a t they- should be treated like grown people, should dress like grown people and should spend money* like grown people— iu most cases the money for all this coming from the family pocketbook. In the ward robe o f the daughter there must be several Vhnnges of dresses, middies, several changes of shoes, silk stocking s, lin gerie and other mysterious things o f which mere, man must with becom in g modesty profess ignorance, powder p u ffs and manicure sets, sweaters, b a th in g suits, street o u t f it s and camping o u tfits, street wraps, party wraps and many other things necessarv to add to comfort and beauty. T h e son is not quite so expensive a proposition. His ward robe is not so e lab o rate and means o f e a rn in g pin money come to him more readily. B u t fo r nil th e re are the movies and many form s o f amusement, there are school a c t iv i ti e s and in many cases it costs much to kedp up an automobile fo r their pleasure, com fort nnd enter tainm e nt. T h e cost o f providing the t a b l e is also a worth«* item. Then comes college with the higher cost of higher education. B e f o r e this time, the parents have discovered that exjienses. already high, are going to be so high that putting a large fam ily through the same course, a course which the age seems to demand, will prevent the laying away o f a neslegg for old age Con seqnently, if there has been nn orderly arrangem ent o f arriv als in the family, i f the family- is not already o f fair proportions, the chances a r e it never will be a large one. The eom)>liiinnnt re ferred to is wrong. It is not th«. coat o f production, it is the cost o f maintenance that is holding down the site o f families, which does not ta k e into consideration a f u rth e r f a r t which is equally guilty for the lark o f large families. That is the desire o f parents to e njo y their own lived. I ji r g e fam ilies prevent eu tering into social a f f a irs . L arge fain ilies keep the parents, especially the mother, tied a t home. P are n ts are givin g more thought to their own en joynient o f life. T hey do not grow old ns they used to. They remain young with their children and enjoy many ot the thing« that their children enjo y , thereby adding still further to the cost o f maintenance. No one would t a k e a million dollars for any baby they have raised, and, if rx|>en*cs keep increasing in the same proportion they have during the past few v e a n , parents may find that to sell for even t h a t - figure would give them no interest ou their investment. One b ab y is an expensive luxury, twins almost spell fin an c ial ruin and “ pairs o f t w i n , ” to which the always prim and correct Oregonian recently referred, are a calam ity . • ,*• • • W h e n the tra in cam e in ba ck in l9 iO T h e f e a r o f our complainant that children o f foreign born parents arc going to come into possession o f our country probably is unfounded. For eigners rapidly adopt American ideals and the growin g generatio n will not be found as super prolific as their parents. They rapidly become A m en rnns nnd raise children equal in every way to the American children o f to day. T h e re is little f e a r of the country being overrun with children o f foreign born parents, and even were such the ease, if the immigration laws are rig idly enforced, there is nothing to fear from having the country- overrun in this manner. • T HINCS WE THINK T h in g « O th e r« Thm k and W hut We T h in k o f t h o T h in g « O t h e r « T h in k All ice bill is cold realism. • • • Abuse b la ck en * Ixjth the giver ami receiver. • • • S e le c t y our tiree ac cording to th e to e d a they have to travel: Frie nd ship is nursed on the milk of human kindness. • • • Most fo lk s e x p e c t their do too much fo r them. • • • friends In sandy or hilly coun try, wherever th e go in g Is apt to be heavy— The V .

And most of like e v e ry other in quality the cars you generally sec —the best its builders know there are moderate-price cars. how to build. II Anybody who tells you that owners of m odcratc-price cars are not interested in the quality o f their tires has never met very many of them. W e come in contact with the small car owner every day and we have found that he is ju s t as m uch interested as the big car owner. Whatever the size of your car, the service you get*out of U. S. Tires is the same. It isn’t the car, but the man w ho ow ns the car, that sets the standard to which U. S. tires are made. IV W e feel the same way about it. That’s why we represent U. S.
