Every now and then one fipds a child who cries most of his. waking hours, Hs is setting up bad habits for the future, and the cause of his screams should be found out as soon as possible. He may be suffering from his mother's indecision in training him." There is no use in starting to let a child "cry it out" and then losing ona's nerve and picking it up.

The child who is half-trained in this way is worse oft than the child who is never trained at all.

Speak in Eldorado Edwin Markham, famous American poet will be. the guest of the Older Young People's league of Fifty-eighth Street Methodist church in a public appearance in the church this evening at 7:30 o'clock. Mr. Markham's last visit to this city was last year when he appeared on the Altoona school district's lecture series.

Mr. Markham has traveled throughout the country and in his public appearances has been acclaimed by thousands. The poet was born In Oregon City, April 23, 1852. He spent his boyhood on a ranch in central California and received his education at California State Normal school and later was graduated from Santa Rosa college. After abandoning the study of law he entered into educational work and for many years served as headmaster or principal of schools in California.

Mr. Markham's initial literary work was "The Man With the Hoe," first published in California newspaoers. Following this came "The Poetry of Jesus." "California the Wonderful," "The Children in Bondage." and others. The Older Young People's league, of which Miss Ruby M. Krouse is director invites all residents of Eldorado, as well as the oublic generally to hear Mr.

But the parents and neighbors must steel to a few periods of noise and not repent of hard-heartedness and take the child up. If they do repent must go through the same ordeal again and again. This training can and should be finished by the time the baby is a few weeks old It is not hard to train a child into good habits if there are no bad already to overcome.

If, despite consistent training the child continues to cry constantly, the mother may be pretty sure that something is wrong. Perhaps the child is getting too little or too weak food, or there may be some trouble too deep-seated to be apparent to the casual observer. She would do well to take the baby to a doctor or to a good clinic to have him thoroughly examined. A well baby, consistently and firmly handled and correctly fed is a happy and contented creature. He may at times express annoyance at something which displeases him, but he will not cry often or long.
