LISTEN, FOLKS! —TO WILLIAM RITT— WHAT SONG do you hum as you i go about a task? Maybe you don’t hum but If you do and have been humming such tunes, the last several days, as “All My Life”, “She Shall Have Music”, “Touch of Your Lips” or "Robins and Roses” you are right in musical style, according to Variety, entertain ment trade paper which makes a bus- Ines of finding out about such things. Variety weekly checks the num ber of songs and how often each song is played over the Columbia and the two NBC networks. From j the results a list of 25 or so leaders is culled and announced. The four songs mentioned above I are the latest current over the chain ' airways. THE WEEKLY LIST is proof that the life of a popular song is almost as brief as that of the butterfly. Like butterflies creeping through the comparatively long existence of being a caterpillar song writers work long and hard creating and perfecting tune and lyric. Then, again like the butterfly, the I song emerges from its creative cocoon ' and takes to the air—or, rather, the SAVANNAH DAILY TIMES. WEDNESDAY, JULY 1, 193« JUNE BRIDE Flower girls were little Nancy Coop er, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Cooper, of Athens, and little Emma Carter Daniel, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Carter Daniel, of Athens. The flower girls were attired in models of pastel organdie and carried baskets of ose pedals. The lovely bride entered with her father, by whom she was given in mar riage. Her gown was of white satin. fashioned on princes empire lines.

D. Head department of Parent Education Cleveland Collage, Western Reserve University The other day a mother wrote to ask whether she would dare to talk to her baby, then five months old. “Some say I might .excite him too much if I talked to him." Much of the foolishness written and talked to mothers has made them afraid to be human beings in the presence of their little children. Many have not dared to kiss the little tyke and now some hesitate even to talk to him! Kiss your baby, of course, mother avoiding his lips for the sake of his health. Talk to him, most certanly, as soon as he will respond; Just be moderate. A good time to talk to him is while he is being dressed or changed or bathed, or while he is nude, hating his free exerc ; se Just be fore bath. You may have forgotten when your mother played “Pat-a-cake” with you or “This Little Pig Went to Mar ket,” or “Here Sits the Lord Mayor.” But you may recall when she did so with baby brother or sister. Happily do I remebmer when my mother so amused my baby sister, and I can think of nothing quits so beautiful to me as my mother s face and voice were then. Turn Back on Silly Things I wish that young mothers read ing this would turn their backs upon some of the silly things that they have been told or have read, and would restore to themselves and their little children many of the whole some joys they as babies shared wibh their mothers. It is wise, of course, to employ discretion and not to over stimulate the baby, nor to poke a finger not well cleansed into his mouth, nor to tickle him. Yet finger plays have great value when properly used, both forth' 1 mother and the little child. Here are a few samples. Almost any grandmother can supple ment them indefinitely, and would be very glad of the opportunity. This little pig went to market, This little pig stayed home. This little pig had roast beef. This little pig had none. This little pig cried "Wee, wee,” all the way home. From China, w'here the baby’s toes are played with, comes the next: This little one eats grass, This little one eats hay. This little one eats water, This little one runs away. This little one does nothing But just lies around all day. With last line the mother play fully and gently slaps soles of baby's feet. With the next, the mother points to each part of the baby at men tioned: Two little eyes to open and close. Two little ears and one litle nose. Two little lips and one little ch n. Two little cheeks with a rose shut in Two little eblbows, dimpled and sweet. Two little shoes and two little feet; Two little shoulders, stout and strong, And two little hands busy all day long. • I Affairs Os Tonight Franklin Temple No. 2, Pythian Sisters, will meet ths ev?ning at the Knights of Pythias hall at 8 o’clock.

I’ve Just re ceipted for half a dozen uppercuts and roundhouse swings from an anonymous correspondent who did NOT like something I wrote ... In the midst of his general disapproval, he took one violent crack at my “sen timentalizing” over what a little girl had missed in never having ridden on a steam train. And if that’s “sentimentalizing”, then I agree with my unknown letter writer . . . "Sentimentality” is get ting all worked up emotionally over semething that isnt worth a whoop in a whirlwind. It’s getting soppy over a lovely sunset while you are standing on a puppy-dog's tail. . . . It’s giving a starving man a kind word and neglecting to buy him a meal . . . Something pretty close to hypocrisy. But why, says my friend ( I’ll eall him, for convention’s sake) should anybody write that a little girl who hasn’t traveled on the “dirty, slow, smelly hot (or cold) trains of today” has been cheated of “a very precious experience”. Well, I just happened to feel that why about it, and still do. When I was a kid, the railroad was romance and the railroaders were heroes. The roundhouse was an ex citing place. And the wooooh! of the train in the night was swell to hear They Got Their Walking Orders IIIw nB -Hi J OB I Rubber workers of Gasden, Ala., objected to attempts of union organizers to run their affairs.

Six guards of the school already are under Indictments on charges of beating the young inmates. A former dormitory matron, Mrs. Mollie Stone, testified that the school superintend ent. G. Newt Choate, often urged the guards to whip the children. Mrs. Stone said she never was per mitted to watch the floggings but heard one boy lashed 95 times. The former amtron testified she frequent ly heard th? young victims screaming with pain and praying to die to find rlease from the cruel treatment. .. And for kids who lived in the middle west, in little towns or on farms, the trains were great adven tures coming from afar, roaring to ward the unknown . . . The aviator may have taken the place of the engineer for the youngsters of today, but not entirely . . . I’ve feard kids who’ve traveled eighty miles an hour in automobiles and ridden in air planes complain tbak they never get a train ride and they get more ex citement out of steam puffing out of an old switch engine Ihan they do out of the air mail droning overhead. So I’ll stand pat, fellow. My correspondent said he couldn’t sign his name because he has “a me nial job” . . . What’s that got to do with it? Did he think I’d write a nasty letter to his boss? . . .

Today’s hand offers an illu stration of why such procedure is fa vored by experts. North happened to be an obstinate sorb of playsr. Two months ago I knew that he was bit terly opposed to showing immediately a two-suiter over partner’s call, un less at least one quick trick was held. He favored first bidding 1-No trump partner’s opening suit call, then later showing a long suit, if afforded an opportunity to do so. Gradually nis ideas have altered. Last week he offered teas objection than he did formerly. His experience with today’s hand has almost converted him. Soon he will be reconciled to such pro cedure. -Bidding went: North, 1-Heart, third hand; South, 1-Spade, at which game could not have bsen expected; West, 2-Diamonds: North, 2-No Trumps, that could not have been made; South, 3-Clubs; West, 3-Dia monds; South, 4-Clubs, leaving part ner to shift, if he desired; North, 5-Clubs, that West doubled. When partners have bid different suits, then compromised upon a third suit, ordinarily the best defense is to lead trumps as frequently as possi ble.

Then West led his of diamonds, tak ing out dummy's Ace. The shift to diamonds plainly enough showed that Easb held the missing 8 and 5 of clubs, and declarer played according ly. He led off dummy's Ace of hearts, then he ruffed a heart, to lead the Q of spades. West’s double indicated the probable location of the K of spades. West’s K covered the Q of Rich Photo Studio 26 1-2 EAST BROUGHTON STREET PHONE 4412 BOARD SANCTIONS FEDERAL GRANTS WASHINGTON, July 1 (TP)—The social security board authorized fed eral grants totaling $6,200,000 today for relief to the distressed in 16 states and th?

WORLD WAR VETERANS STEP INTO LEGAL FIGHT BOSTON, July 1 (TP)—The vet erans of foreign wars stepped into a legal fight today over a court order to make a veteran pay his debts with his bonus. The order was issued against Herbert Mahar of Adams. Mahar is ordered to pay more than S3OO. He cashed S2OO in bonus bonds, but he wouldn’t pay it on the bill. Commander Miller of the veterans started an inquiry. He said he means to be dead sure that the court order isn’t a violation of a fedei -1 law designed to -irotect vet erans against seizure of their bonus funds. J won the return lead of spades, spades. Dummy’s ace won. Declarer’s Dummy ruffed • a third lead ol spades. Dummy’s J of clubs was overtaken with declarer’s Q. West showed out of trumps, as expected. Dummy’s last trump ruffed a fourth lead of spades. East’s last spade fell. Declarer used next to his last trump to ruff a third lead of hearts. Then his 10 of clubs picked up East’s last trump. South led off his fifth spade, winning his eleventh trick. Previously he had lost to the Ace of clubs. Now he had to lose the thirteenth trick to West’s Q of diamonds, just making his double contract .North was gra cious enough not to even mention that South was lucky to go game.
