Show "T OSStasn I heard a story today. A story I want to pass on to you. I regret that instead of being a gay story it is a sad one. It really should be a glad one, a soft, gay, heartwarming story, for it is the story of a little girl. Well, not really a little girl either, for she is yet a baby. Yes, a baby gul Just 21 months old not even two years old. Therefore, she is very much a baby. She has scarcely learned to lisp such baby words as Tiss it better. Moipmie, or "I wuv oo. Daddy.

The houses and the furniture are for grown ups, too, and a babys eyes can only see the legs of the furniture. She must climb even to get onto a chair, and mommies and daddys bed is like a whole playground to her. This giant world is not too important, for time will adjust that. What it offers her is important, for time will only make stronger her baby impressions. Do these giant grown-up- s fill her tiny heart with terror and fear or does she know that they adore her and will stoop to her size to love her, to hold her close and to give her security from danger, and security from fear? A baby story should tell of laughter,, of love, of kind care and guidance from prudent parents who consider thoughtfully their childs feelings in everything they do which concerns that child. My heart aches as I tell you this baby story, which is every word true, and Ill tell it to you exactly as it was told to me: I have watched a mother literally beat her baby. She beats it because it wanders from their trailer court home and gets into thi street. Instead of protecting it from the street by tying It with a long rope,' or making a fence, she beats it. I' have watched her so many times I feel that I just can't stand it any longer. Who can I tell that will help? What can be done? Today she took a fan belt and beat the little thing, and as the child stood sobbing with up turned face, lifting her baby arms to her mother to be picked up, and held, to be loved and comforted, the mother responded to her babys pitious plea by pushing her down and beating her again and her baby sobs rang .throughout the trailer court.
