. And love and warmth tomorrow.
Sleep, little baby, sleep,
. The holy angels love thee
' And guard thy bed and keep . ....
" A blessed watch above thee.
' Sleep through the holy night,
- Christ-kept from snare and sorrow,
Until thou wake to light,
And love and warmth tomorrow.
Christina Rossetti. '
" Above would make a nice
cradle song. Reminds me I knew
a, young mother who said she
had tried all the famous cradle
songs with no results. That the
only time she could put her baby
to sleep with a song was when
she sang. ."When the Midnight
Choo-Choo Leaves for Alabam."
Parents
What's the United States
record for prolific parenthood?
Can you top a couple of Kutz
town,. Pa;, named ' Wartzenluft,
who were the parents of 29 chil
dren! Asking -:
i ' Queries from clients. Q. Who
was hi the cast of the original
stage production of "The Voice
of the Turtle." A. Margaret Sulla
van, Elliott Nugent and Audrey
Christie. It was a three character
play. . . Q. You said the abbre
viation "Xmas" is incorrect?
Don't you know "X" is an abbre
viation of the Greek word for
Christ? A. I didn'i say "Xmas"
was incorrect. I said I didn't like
the abbreviation and that's the
way, I still feel about it. . . . Q.
Did Arnold Rothstein win a million-dollars
on one horse race?
If so, when? A. Rothstein is said
to have won about $800,000 on a
horse named Sideral. The race
was at Aqueduct. Was in the
days of track bookmakers. Si
deral opened at 30 to 1,; closed
at three to one.
In a Few Words .
It was Paulette Goddard who
observed, "Slacks are an abom
ination. Shorts are all right, but
skirts are better. Women just
weren't built for wearing trou
sers." . ... Ed Howe said, "When
we see a woman who has been
married and divorced a number
of times, we aire reminded of a
man who is always failing in
business."
That Check
Among the things this country
needs is a good system to decide
who shall pay the check, it is
ridiculous for a group of people,
to battle' for the, check after a
luncheon or dinner. Also, the
type' of fellow who insists upon
always paying, can become quite
a bore and a pest. Best way is to
let ; everybody pay . their own
check. Second best is to toss dice
or draw cards to see who pays.
Get It Right
Gene Tunney was "a brilliant
boxer'- but "a light puncher."
Sq says, a sportscribe. A ridic
ulous statement.. Some of these
Johnny come latelys of the sport
pages should spend a little time
studying the history of boxing.
Tunney packed a terrific punch.
Jack Dempsey said the hardest
blow he ever stopped was one
Tunney landed on him in the
seventh round of the Chicago
fight. Said Dempsey .of this
punch, "it was not a question in
my mind of being knocked out.
I thought I was going to die."
Among the Married
Women have a desire to be
dominated. So alleged experts of
life among the married repeat
edly claim..-1 believe the choice
of the word "dominated" is
unfortunate. That means to rule
over, to command, to compel
obedience. No intelligent wife
wants to be pushed around like
that. Women like to be led. To
be guided by their husbands.. To
have them capable of making a
final decision. Having such a
man around the house increases
a. woman's feeling of security.
Having a timid, indecisive
spouse inspires much wifely
worry.
Please Note
- "Dined last 'night at Mario
Uchard's. Present . was . Paul
D'Yvoy, who tells Parisians in a
daily column what is going on in
Paris." Jules deGoncourt wrote
that in his diary just about 100
years ago. On Dec. 5, 1857, to
be exact. So you see the gossip
columnist is not, as some people
claim, a recent development.

About 3,000,000 Farmers Belong
To 10,000 Cooperative Groups
Washington (U.R) About
3,000,000 farmers in the United
States now are members of more
than 10,000 cooperative , or
ganizations set up to obtain serv
ices for themselves at cost and
without profit.
These farmers, many of whom
belong to more than one or
ganization, represent some 7,-
600,000 memberships in coop
eratives in the marketing, 'farm
supply,, and related service
fields. The individual farmers
making up the multiple mem
bership total more than three
fifths of all farmers in the
United States.
- These statistics, compiled by
the Department of Agriculture,
show total membership for the
1953-54 year rose 100,000 over
the previous year. Despite
increased membership, the num
ber of cooperatives fell slightly.
There were 10,058 coops in 1953
54 compared with 10,114 the
year before. The department
said consolidations were respon
sible for most of the decline;
The net dollar business of the
co-ops for 1953-54 was $9,500,
000,000, almost as much as in the
preceding year in spite of declin
ing prices for many products
cooperatively handled, such as
livestock, grain, and feed.

products . marketed accounted
for about $7,300;000,000. Farm

Duke Enjoys Messing Into Work at Farm
London U.R) The Duke of
Edinburgh said Tuesday night he
and Queen Elizabeth "get a lot
of fun" out of butting into the
work of their farm manager.
The duke told a National
Farmers Union dinner that he
was supposed to propose a toast
to agriculture "but I know less
about the subject than anybody
else here." He added that four
years ago he knew nothing about
farming but since had learned
"a bit more about it."
"I am afraid our agent would
probably disagree with that re
mark because both the queen
and I "get a lot of fun out of
interfering with his work," the
duke said.
