There was pathetic scene at the in
FAINT incubator institute at Wonder
land the other day when young moth
er saw her baby for the first time. 1t
was born two weeks ago and was taxi
en- to the incubator before the mother
=, saw it. Although so weak that she had
to be carried from the automobile into
the institute, her physician declared
that she would be greatly benefited by
the trip for she seemed to take on a
new life when she held her child in her
arms and was convinced that it was
really alive and likely to live. She had
been pining for it and the child a.
reused her from an apathy tina:
threatened to lead to decline that
might have been fatal. There are now
five babies at the institute, two OF
whom have graduated through the
nursery and are being weaned. One
case has been especially interesting tc
physicians as the saving of the child
was almost forlorn hope The sub
stitution of the artificial mother proved
eflcacious largely because the treat
ment began within less than an hour
from birth. ......
