HOW TO SAVE THE BABIES
Consolation For FIoor.WaIking Papas
and Mamas.
Especial to The Free Press

tSDeC1aI TO Inc free Press.
Philadelphia, May 1S--Mothers
and foor-walking fathers who don't
know why babies are cross and
would like to know why only have
to visit the Baby Saving show open
ed today at Horticultural Hall, to
continue ten days. The explanation
offered by the physicians and social
settlement workers who promoted
the novel show is contained in two
large pictures, one of crying baby
and the other of a laughing infant.
Under the picture of the crying
youngster is printed the legend,
"This baby cries and is cross be-
cause it is rocked, because it is
overfed, because it is not clean, be-
cause it's clothes are not comfort
able, because it is fed ice cream
and candy, and taken to the
movies" 1t is explained that the
laughing baby is happy because it
is regularly fed and bathed, because
it is clean and not bothered with
flies and because it's clothes are
loose and light and it has plenty of
fresh air. Everything connected with
the raising of good baby crop of
healthful and happy youngsters is
shown at the Baby Saving show.
