Expert Tells How to Develop the Baby Physically
IDEAL 2-YEAR-OLD youngster
Professor F. B. Magee Finds
Atlanta's Perfect Apollo, Jr.,
in Robert W. Chambers.
The quest of ’the ideal Atlanta baby" i
continues.
Today is presented a likeness of At- '
lanta's physically perfect two-year-old
youngster, Master Robert W. Chambers
(no relation to the Cosmopolitan - most
famous contributor).
In measurements this child ap
proaches nearer the ideal than any of
several hundred Atlanta youngsters of'
this age examined by The Georgian’;’
ideal baby commissioner. Professor I-'.
B Magee, physical culture and baby ex- ■
pert. According to Professor Magee,'
X. ,e, / U'
i
I
tills is tile ideal baby of two y. .•. 1
There may b> larger babies of that age
• —probably . for Ruber; is exactly I
tii” average weight of tile average 24-
months-old kiddo —but none, so says |
I the professor, equals this one in sym-i
■ metiy and Apollo, Jr.-like development. |
No doubt there will be protests from ,
proud parents. If there are 689 two- i
year-old infants in Atlanta, there will i
be 1,378 parents who believe that their'
own two-year-older is not only supe- ;
rior in physique to R. William, here j
presented, but likewise superior to all i
the rest of the two-year-olds.
Not Too Late To Develop Baby.
A tape measure, honestly applied, will
give the answer. Try it on the baby, if
you Ijave one two years -old, and see
how the measurements stack up with
those published.
If they aren’t as good, there is no
time like the present for starting sys
tematic exercises for developing the
kid.
Professor Magee has prepared for
Tlie Georgian nine rules for the devel
opment of children from their 24th to
their 36th month, which are here given:
1. Teach the child to sit on your
hand. This affords it exercise in bal
ancing. which strengthens the • body
muscles. Children usually begin to sit
alone at seven or eight months. At
nine or ten months they begin to try’ to
stand alone. Don’t hurry this.
2. As soon as the child begins to
walk, which should lie at the twelfth or
thirteenth month, teach it to stand on
your hand. This requires some bal
ance, and is a developer of body mus
cles.
3. Teach the child to hang by its
hangs from your lingers. In tlie sec
ond year a child should develop a
strong grip.
Never Jfk the Little Fellow.
4. Holding the child by one arm, pull
It from the floor and hold it momen
tarily. Repeat with tlie other arm, then
witli one leg and then the other. This
is line exrcise for the cMld. and
strengthens the joints. Don’t jerk.
5. Teach the child to make a
•bridge.” This “bridge" should be
formed with the child's head and hands
on the floor as one support of the bridge
and their feet the other, while the front
part of the body is upward. Tlds
strengthens many muscles, especially
those of the stomach.
6. Put up a bar somewhere in the
yard within reach of the child. It will
hang and swing by this and strengthen
its hands and arms.
7. As the child's legs strengthen, al
low it to stand on your shoulders, first
with pour hands there to steady it and
later by itself.
Always Make Play of It.
8. Make a "wheelbarrow” of the child
that is, of course, grab it by the legs
and allow it to walk along on its hands.
Tills strengthens arm, leg and back
muscles.
9. Be sure that you make "play" out
of it. If the child suspects it is work
it will get no pleasure and small profit
out of it.
Since the cult of “child development”
has extended from the mental to the
physical side of their lite much progress
lias been made In developing the bodies
of babies No doubt there are in At- •

Folds in Street.
William Daniel, orderly at Grady lios.
pital, and slid to be the largest negro
in Atlanta, was shot dead by Policeman
Mack Fold- early today in front of 100
Fraser stre". The negro had attacked
tlie officer, who had to crawl from under .
ids giant assailant after tlie bullets had
ended tlie fisticuff.
Policeman Folds heard a pistol shot
somewhere in Fraser street as he was
walking his beat, and believed there was
trouble in No. 100. He ran up and
knocked on the door. Just then the
negro, Daniel, strolled up the sidewalk.
“What are you knocking on that door
for?” ffe asked, belligerently.
“Go on and attend to your own
ness,” returned Folds.
Daniel kept up bis abuse, and Folds
left the door and went for him. The
officer drew his billy and struck at the
giant, who took it awa.v from him and
struck viciously. The two clinched ami
went down, the negro on top.
Then Folds pulled his revolver from
its scabbard, managed to turn the muz
zle upward, and tired two shots through
the giant's brain. Daniel sank dowtji
dead on tlie policeman, who found dif
ficulty in crawling from under the hody».
Daniel had been orderly at the hose

largest negro in Atlanta. He was 6 feet]
4 inches tall, and weighed nearly 3001

of lifting a. full grown man in his arms
and carrying him from one waid to-,
another. Some of his feats of strength !
are said to hive been the marvel oM
the physicians.
