PRISONERS
Escape From Licking County
Jail Today

Newark, o., April 30-Six of the
fourteen prisoners in the Licking
county jail made their escape at $50
O'Clock Tuesday morning, just after
being served their breakfast by Jailer
George Taylor. The six were among
the most desperate prisoners in the
Jail.
The door leading to the section of
the prison where the men were con-
fined, was left unlocked for moment
while Mr. Taylor started towards an
other section to serve breakfast to
other inmates. The men with rush
burst through the door, effected their
escape from the building through a
second-story window, which leads to a
porch roof, and then jumped fifteen
feet to the ground, and by scattering
in different directions were soon lost
to sight

CHARGES
That Kindness Kills Some
Babies
Infants Would Thrive On
Puppies Care

st. Paul, April 3O--'Tf we thought
half so much Of our babies as the
breeders of thoroughbred puppies do
of their animals we would not tolerate
the shaking, fonding and cuddlng
with which we seek to quiet and
amuse them" said Mrs L. S. r. Rob
inson, of the Baby Welfare Associa-
ton, at meeting of the Bethel Wo.
mans Club.
No man who has high grade pup
pies will allow any one to fondle or
fuss with them. The father who tosses
his baby up to the ceiling and makes
him laugh until he gets fairly hys-
terical is responsible for much of the
chronic nervousness which develops
as the child grows up.
ut is crime to bounce and toss
baby until the food in its stomach is
so shaken up it cannot be dgested
The tendency to shake our babies is
due to American nervousness. The
babies cry and we do not know what
to do for them. 1t is far better to
put them on the bed and let them cry.
If they are comfortable and are not
hungry it will do them no harm, what
ever, and it will be better for them
Babies are very easily trained
1T is often a sacrilegious statement
to say when a baby dies that God
took it; it died through the fault of
the mother, who will not do what she
should for the baby More babies are
killed by kindness than anything else.
The mother does everything the neigh
bors, friends and relatives tell her.
America has the highest infant NOR
tality rate of all the better governed
countries. One baby in every five dies
before 1t reaches the age or one year
Food is the most important thing to
the young baby. and it should not be
fed too much ~ too often. We need
a city ice con any wllch would fur
nish the poor families with a few
cents worth of ice each day, for ice is
an absolute necessity. Milk which has
been exposed to the warm air be-
comes poisonous.
Then flies are the cause of much
sickness to babies and TO adults. II
the fly does not fall into the milk and
drown, to be fished out, it crawls along
the edge of the pitcher, and then the
milk is poured out over the germs it
leaves. If we cannot afford screens
we can at least afford netting, and this
will keep out the flies. Better go with
out new hat and let the children go
without new clothes and get some
screens.
Don't wait for your babies to get
sick before you seek advice. Weigh
them once a week, and If they lose
weight you may know that something
is wrong. The baby welfare clinics
are held for the purpose of giving
mothers advice and furnishing them
with formulas for proper food"
