Workers. : - An American baby show In the' heart of France! The minds of Americans overseas, are fertile enbugh'in ideas for the diversion ot the doughboy, but here is some thing new, devised by two Y.M.CA. women workers. The show was held at Fort St Menge, where the 601st Engineers were stationed and where, too, there is a large candidates school. It wasn't a show of real. lir babies, toi that, obviously, would; be im possible, but it was the next thing tojit. .Of course every , soldier-daddy carries next his heart the picture of the greatest baby in the ' world. There are many soldier bachelors, too. who find inspiration and en couragement in the photographs of f little brothers or sisters or nephews or; nieces. : Combined with this is the tendency of the doughboy over seas to tell the American women he meets all his stories of home and to show them his latest snapshots from the U.S-A , Naturally a lot of the boys had unbosomed themselrcs to Miss Anna Blanton and Mh3 Mary Paxton,y3rM.CA. worker at Fort St. Mepe. The show, of baby pictures resulted. ' . . Every man In the 601st Engi neers and the Candidates' School was invited to prove that, his taby was the cutest on earth by entering his or her picture. Immediately tlure , was a rush of candidates, sponsored by both officers and pri vates, i ' Pictures I were arranged by class- es according to age and sex. Class A, was for boys under! one year; Class B for kirls under one year; Class C for boy S between one and five; Class D for girls between one and five; Class E for boys between five and ten; Class F'for girls be tween live and ten. , 1 ! the children do not attend the same school, which renders unlikely the probability that either may have ac quired the fever from tne otner.
