BABY'S HEALTH IN THE SPRING The Spring is a time of anxiety to mothers who have little ones in the home. Conditions make it necessary to keep the baby indoors. He is often confined to overheated, badly venti- lated rooms and catches colds which rack his whole system. To guard against this a box of Baby's Own Tab- lets should be kept in the house and an occasional dose given the baby to keep his stoma.ch`:and bowels working regularly. • This will prevent colds, constipation or colic and keep; baby well. .The Tablets are scold by medi- cine dealers or by mail at 25 cents a box from The Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. —0-- Farthest-North omaFarthest-North Radio Weather Station.

At a recent concert in Winnipeg, a gentleman said to his guest from the East, "I just notice that on this • pro gramme the'names, of the composers of the song lyrics• are omitted. I woe - der who is •responsible for such an oversdgtht?" It ;may be said. at once. that such omissions, are not. confined by any means to Winnipeg. Every- where you go you will find :programmes giving the names. of the composers, rot the music, but the persons respons•iblo; nameless.. a e - for -the texts areSome- times times the programmie - even, gives in full the two or three stanzas of earl of the texts without "mentioning the writers' names. • • Is it to save a few cents .in'composi- 'tion at the printers? Is it just thought- iesei ess? .Or is it because the one re siponstible•for the programme consider- ed the,wordsi of rue importance? • One of the foremos'tvocalists em this continent said the ether day, "before I. study a new' song to add to my re- pertoire, I -read over the words care- fully and if they are not worth while, I would+n't put any time en the song, no' matter how excepiticnaliy • fine the music was." Another singer, a famous tenor, said recently: "When I get a. new .song, I first familiarize myself with, the text. If the words prove silly or sentimental, I throw the song aside. For no matter how good the music, a song is not worth singing unles's the worcls-are worth hearing. Words. 'and music should constitute a harmonious union. For tba!t matter I believe that the accompaniment to a song is just as much a past of it as the portion written for the voice." - The most success-fui eompoeers lay great stress on the lyrics. There is absolutely no excuse , for. ueing the words of a song on the programme without giving proper credit to the writer of tleose.,words, and it would be good taste wl>yen•listingg songs• to say wards' by so-and-so, and music by so - and se. No music publisher would is- sue a song without the title page cover- ing the; name of the lyric writer in prominent type along with pat of the composer of the music.
