are involved in a collision and, res
cued by Wolf, are kept by him aboard
bis vessel.

HEALTH HINTS
By MAKIE E. FALLDINE,
Public Health Nurse, Juneau
Chapter. American
Red Cross.
When an Infant Is left to the caro
of older children they should be
cautioned against giving the baby
food between meals. Too often the
baby Is fed crackers, cookies and
sweets to keep him contented. When
the meal time comes he Is not hungry
and he drifts into Irregular habits
of eating.
Begin early to teach your child
good habits. Remember that while
we are “creatures of habit” we are
born entirely without them and It
is as easy in the beginning to learn
good habits as bad ones.
One of the first essential habits
Is that of regularity and the re
sponsibility of this rests largely
with the mother. Regularity of
eating, sleeping and all the habits
which apply to the physical functions
of the body, if learned in the be
ginning will be of lasting benefit
to both mother and child.
We must remember that Infancy
is a period of education often of
greater Importance than any other
two years of life. At this time we
•receive our first Impressions and
the organs of the body begin their
functioning. The first nervous im
pulse which passes through the
baby's eyes, cars, mouth or fingers
to the brain makes a pathway for it
self and as the impressions are re
peated they travel over the same
path and the Impressions are deep
ened. Therefore, if these impulses
are sent in orderly fashion the habit
is thus established and the tendency
to form such habits will persist of
ten throughout life.
The ungovernab.e child who has no
respect for the rights of others nor
the authority of his elders, who eats
without regard to time or place, who
gets his own way by crying or by
stubborn insistence is not only a
nuisance to everyone concerned, but
he is doing himself grave harm and
often must unlearn these habits
through suffering and shame.
If your baby is not growing or de
veloping as It should do not take
the advice of every well meaning
friend or chance acquaintance and
experiment upon the baby according
to the various opinions offered. Your
doctor Is your first guide at such
times and his instructions should
be carefnlly followed out. Also there
are many books and pamphlets of
recognized value which may be con
sulted when In doubt. Many of these
pamphlets are free, others may be
purchased at a very small cost.
