Washington, July 22.—Prizes for the most perfect babies at baby shows | are condemned as unscientific by Miss | | Julia C. Lathrop of Chicago, director | of the federal children’s bureau. | “At a recent agricultural fair,” said | | Miss Lathrop, “the managers explain- | | ed that they offered prizes for the ba- | bies because they offered prizes for the pigs, and thought they ought to do as much for the babies. Now, ba- bies and pigs are not in the same class, and offerng a prize for a pig is the very reason for a different treat- ment of babies. “The old fashioned baby show, with | its crowded publicity, its prizes and its maternal heartburnings, should be consigned to the past. “Certificates awarded to mothers who care most efficently for their ba- | bies should replace the prizes. Many a has | mother who, through luck, is blessed | | with a healthy baby, deserves less!/ credit than a careful mother who,’ through carefully observing rules of’ feeding, develops a sickly baby into a’ healthy child.” PAAWWAWWAAAUAAAAAAUAANU00000000 00 New Line of Fine White Felt Hats for Midsummer —These Hats are strictly up-to-date. are just the thiag this season.

JUNCTION IS DISMISSED Judge Willard Follows Mandate of Su- preme Court and Restores to Opera- tion the Minnesota 2-Cent Passen- ger Rate and the Commodities Law. St. Paul, July 22.—Quickly, without formality or red tape, Judge C. A. Willard of the United States circuit court of Minnesota, dismissed the cir- cuit court injunction against seven railroads in the state and officialy re- stored to effective operation the Min- nesota 2-cent rate and commodities laws, and cleared the way for consid- eration of the cases of the three roads not affected by the mandates of the supreme court. The motion for the dismissal of the injunctions was made by Attorney Pierce Butler, representing the stock- holders of the roads involved. The injunctions were granted to the railroads in 1911 by Federal Judge W. H. Sanborn of the circuit court, who held the state rate law was unconsti- tutional and confiscatory. The su preme court reversed this. The roads against which the injunc tions were dismissed are: Great Northern, Northern Pacific, Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha, Chi- cago, Milwaukee and St. Paul, Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific, Chicago and Northwestern and the Soo. A decree ; will be entered by the court in favor of the state officers, attorney genera! } and the railroad and warehouse com- missioners, dismissing the injunctions against these roads and assessing the costs for the trials. Status of the M. and St. L. The status of the case of the gov- ernment against the Minneapolis and St. Louis road was presented to the | court by Pierce Butler, representing the stockholders. The mandate of the supreme court in this case provided that a modifica- tion of the injunction could be made at the request of the stockholders of the road or by the state. This ruling of the higher court was affirmed by Judge Willard at the motion of Pierce But- ler. The case of the Chicago Great West- ern Railroad company is held not to be affected by the ruling of the higher court, since its earnings have not been sufficient to warrant the enforcement of the 2-cent rate. A motion was made by the attorneys that this road be permitted to change some of its rates, not to conform with the rate law of the state, but to meet competition. The motion was granted by Judge Willard. Attorney Charles Donnelly, repre- senting the Minnesota and Internation- al Railroad company, appeared before the court and explained the status of that road, which is not compelled by the ruling of the court to make a re- duction of the passenger rate. The In- ternational rozd will voluntarily make this reduction, said Mr. Donnelly. ‘OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS OF THE Village Council OF THE Village of Grand Rapids Minnesota Grand Rapids, Minn., July 14, 1913.
