KEEPING BABIES IN HEALTH
Success of Tent Scheme Last Sum-
mer So Pronounced That 1t
Will Be Repeated.

Mothers of little babies that suffered
much from the intense heat In the
early part of July last summer VIII De
interested in the success OF the "bapy
tent" scheme adopted in some OF the
big cities.
The tents are placed on fiat roofs OF
tall buildings and In open lots, with
eight little cradles or cots in each
tent. When all was ready mothers
of babies under two years were invited
to leave them at the nearest available
tent over night, so that the young
sters, in addition to enjoying the privl-
lege of sleeping out of doors, could
also receive the attention of trained
nurses and doctors free.
Some Of the tents have perforated
iron pipe extending along the ridge
pole and connected with the city water
supply. On very hot nights the water
was turned on and allowed to stream
down over the canvas. BY evapora-
ton it greatly reduced the tempera-
ture inside the tents. Some of the
tents were also kept cool by the use
of large blocks of ice in tubs before
the entrance. Electric fans blew the
cold air from the ice into the tents
sufficiently to keep the babies comfort
ably cool
This is the way some of the poor
babies are being cared for, but the
ideas could be utilized by any one who
had the welfare of the baby at heart.
