Babies Broken In One City

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June 10.-One
hundred sick babies-l00 babies saved.
This was Indianapolis record last
summer in an experiment carried on
by several charitable societies. The
object was to see II this theory that
good milk and proper care would save
the babies OF the poor was true.
Fully 100 per cent--this Is the re-
suit. Now indianapolis Is aroused.
The campaign this summer will be
carried on with renewed zeal. The
city Is convinced.
Four principles the organizers OF
the baby-saving movement worked on;
That)pure milk was better than puri-
fed
That the babies should be treated In
dlvidually, rather than having all fol.
low the same plan.
That distribution stations should be
established in the centers OF greatest
infant mortality. which, in this city,
was in the crowded tenement dis
tricts.
That the mothers should be educated
by trained nurses and wise physicians
