The ladies of the w. r. C. will hold
a social meeting on Monday afternoon

One of the biggest problems with
the American fathers and mothers and
educators today is that of the expense
of education. Each year as the eX-
penses soar the problem becomes more
difficult for the man of moderate
means and, in a great many more
cases that people care to stop ana
think about, the result is disastrous.
Those who are wealthy do not stop to
consider it, although they, almost as
often as their less fortunate fellow
beinugs, suffer for the same reason.
Statistics show that a large percent
age Of the students in the high schools
and colleges are working their way
through and cannot afford ~luxurtes,.
while these same ~luxuries make the
educational institutions of the coun-
try impossibilities to many young
people. People are beginning 10
awaken to the fact that there are more
self-made and self-educated men and
women in the United States than of
the sort who have had the trail blazed
for them, and since these are in a
majority, why should not something
be done to edualize h state OF ahalrs
in the college and school life? Each
year with the coming Of the COM
mencement season the war on the ex-
travagance of the rich students is
being waged more strongly than ever,
il a war on themselves can be classed
as such, for it is a fact that the re-
form has started v -th the rich them
selves. Some, of course, claim per-
sonaI rights in the matter. Wise par
ents have come to realize that the son
or daughter INDUCED is injured more
than anyone else and have cut on
many Of the unnecessary expenses
One of the evils resulting from this
movement that is being wiped out is
that Of competition among the young
women especially as to graduation
gowns. The daughters of wealthy
parents prepare as elaborate an out

perfection. AS fast as the babies ar
rived on the morning of the opening
of the contest, their names, ages and
addresses were written on the cards,
and recorded in our books; the cards
were then given to the mothers, and
mothers and babies ushered into the
room where the three physicians, each
ready to measure a baby, awaited with
table, measuring board and scales.
The babies took their tests philosoph-
ically, on the whole, kicking their rosy
heels on the measuring board but Oft
en- rebelltng against the scales. At
the same time on the other side of the
partition, the other physicians were
giving talks to the mothers on child
hygiene. In all, forty-five babies,
twenty-seven boys and eighteen girls,
were examined during the fair.
When it was time for the decisions
to be rendered and the prizes awarded,
there was perfect quiet in the lecture
room. AS the children were brought
forward, they were placed on a table,
and all at once the people literally
dropped from the seats of the amDhi-
theatre and crowded around the plat
form. There was little opportunity for
presentation speeches. No one cared
even to look at the prizes. 1t was the
babies and their ribbons Of honor that
they wanted to see.
Nov the most interesting thing
about the contest is that Charles Ell
mer O'Toole who won first prize, scor-
ing 96h points, the healthiest and
most nearly perfect in p~hysique-a
| physique so perfect that the judges
even hesitated to consider the tiny
flaws in his otherwise perfect body
was SO delicate at birth. that the first
physician thought he could not live.
Later other physicians prescribed a
change of diet, fresh air and regular
habits of eating and sleeping. Today
at the age of SO months, he is the
| glorious example OF what rigid diet.
outdoor exercise and long hours of
sleep will do for a child.
The child's perfect points are:
weight, 35 pounds; height, 35 inches;
chest, 20 inches; and head, 1914
inches.
The Natioral Congress of Mothers
is just inaugurating a countrywide
campaign of child welfare. 1t is ex-
pected that a meeting will be held in
every town, city and village. The slo-
gan, better babies. better parents,

a little, clambered about in imminent
peril Of broken necks or trampled toes.
One might label the picture, / thought,
an average American family on a hol-
iday. AS l looked at these children, I
saw myself and brothers and sisters
forty years ago, no better-no worse.
Measles, whooping cough and mumps
would be a part of these children's up-
bringing Just as it had been of mine.
If they lived through these necessary
evils without too great depletion Of vi
tality and if dread diseases did not
take them OFF, they might grow to
manhood and womanhood. Then /
began to calculate that this family
would probably make five new families
Of the same kind-possibly with less
endurance.
"A friend interrupted my train Of
thought to invite me to go to the
stock barns with her where the premi-
ums had just been awarded. The man
in charge of the horse barns showed
his beautiful animals, sleek and shin
ing, with glowing pride. Blue ribbons
and red ribons showed bravely on
many head stalls. Every animal in
the clean we'll ordered cattle and hog
pens had been fed and groomed with
utmost care. Al man pointed with
pride to a pen of hogs and told us that
they had been watched almost night
and day; the water they drank had
been analysed, their food measured
and weighed, and only the kinds given
them that would bring certain results.
1t was then that the idea of the
babies health contest for our next
state fair was born. If scientific
care and common sense had done this
for animals, then the same happy
combination could do wonders for the
human being. From this minute, too,
the idea grew; resulted from the re-
Election that the improved condition in
live stock was brought about by show
ing the breeders the difference be-
ween a perfect animal and one that
was deficient by actual measurements
and tests. 1t was this putting down
in black and white of actual defects
that had made men think.
Later when the extension depart
ment of Iowa State college asked that
the Iowa Congress Of Mothers take
charge of the programme for the
women's hour to be held in their build
ing at the state fair. the time to use
the idea had arrived. And the first
babies health contest probably eve
held in the world opened at the state
fair in Des Moines, Ia, Aug. 27, 1911.
The score card was prepared by DR.,
Margaret Clark of Waterloo, Ia, q
prominent physician and clubwoman
Six women physicians assisted in ar
ranging the contest-three gave in
formal talks in the college building
and three acted as judges of the ba-
bies, using this score card based on the
standard printed on the back. All Of
the physicians gave their services ant
paid their own expenses.
I'm judging the BABIES only physica
points were to be considered, and tht
pretty baby found no special favor
though we learned in the contest tina
there was great beauty in physica
