TW0.P0UND IOWA BABE
THRIVES IN INCUBATOR
Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
Iowa Falls, Iowa, April 16.-The
baby incubator that attracted so much
attention at the St. Louis fair is be-
ing initiated on a crude and small
scale in Wright county, where DR..
Garth, of Clarion, is trying to save the
life Of a two-pound bit Of humanity
by means Of a homemade baby incu-
bator.
The parents of the babe are Mr.. and
Mrs. J. E. Fenninger. It was thought
at first it could not survive, but the
physician decided to try the incubator
method, and he succeeded beyond his
expectations.
The improvised incubator was made
of two small sized boxes and in the
lower one were placed several jugs Of
hot water. The upper box was covered
with glass and lined with cotton bat
ting. The bottom of the upper box
was made Of canvas so as to allow
the heat from the jugs to circulate
thru the upper box.
The thermometer was placed in the
upper box and the heat was regulated
by the addition of new jug Of hot
water occasionally. The baby is fed
upon matted milk, a few drops being
given every two hours.

AND JIM KEY

The wonderful horse. Jim Key, Is
the central figure In the humanita-
rlan work which his owner. A. r.

forming in the public schools. Any
child in the city may join and the or
ganization will number thousands.
To maintain the enthusiasm and
give it direction. 7 h } Jour n !,

pills In the fourth to eighth grades,
Inclusive In the Minneapolis public
schools. They are asked to write

servations, showing how animals re-
spond to kindness and patience.

address, school and grade OF the
writer, and, of course. all must be

The Bands of Mercy.

Jim Key Bands of Mercy will be or
ganized in all the public schools Of Min
neapolis and St. Paul this week and it
is expected before the week is over
several thousand new members will be
added to the bands which are doing so
much for the relief and happiness of
animals thruout the world.
The Minneapolis children are deeply
interested, and "Uncle Bert expects
a large number of letters and stories
for the Jim Key Band of Mercy col
umn, for the children are eager to tell
Of some bright dog, cat, bird or some
pet that with the love and kindness
shown it has proved that animals do
feel, think and reason.
There promises to be considerable ex-
element over the election of officers
president is regarded as an honor. The
little president will take the teacher s
chair at all the meetings and will in
this way learn to preside at meeting,
which will be of great value in years
to come.
The president will be sent one Of the
handsome badges, which are larger than
the members badges, to indicate the
honor given the wearer. Every month
copy Of Our Dumb Animals and
stories and little poems about animals
will be sent the president TO: the ben
eft Of the bands.
The secretary will have little en-
rollment book in which the names of all
the members will be kept. There is no
treasurer, as the children are not called
upon for money in any way. The mat
ter Of organization will be chiefly in
The hands Of the principals Of the diff
ferent schools, but Miss Annetta Floris
hopes to visit some Of the schools and
talk to the children. AS soon as the
band in each room is organized, T h e
little members for publication in the
Band Of Mercy column. Which school
will win the honor of organizing the
first band and be the first to send in
the names for this column?
The little prize winners of last week

were very proud and happy and well
they may be, for the stories were in
teresting and well written and showed
erous children, and that animals will
never receive ill-treatment at their
hands.
The contestants this week are urged
to read carefully the requirements at
the head Of the column. Several chill
dren forgot to give their name or ad-
dress and the grade of the school was
also omitted.
Do not forget to write plainly, Civ
ing name and address and the school
and grade.

A Latter TO Uncle Bert.

Dear Uncle Bert: I have been in
the Band of Mercy quite while and
have been trying to do good to dumb
animals.
The best thing which I have ever
seen and that which pleased me most
was jim Key / know that it must
have taken patience and kindness to
teach him.
T am so pleased to know that DR..
Key took so much interest in his horse
and I hope in the years to come that
he can do more kind deeds for dumb
animals. Yours truly,
.c...:. Ralph Love,
