GARAGE FOR REPRESENTATIONS


Philadelphia Correspondence New York
Tribune.
A garage for baby carriages is to be a
feature of the Henry Disston Memorial
church, in course of construction in Ia
cony. suburb of this city. The Rev.
Cornelius Hudson. the pastor. said re-
Gently:
I'VE have lots of babies in the congre-
cation. and we thought that if we built a
place where the mothers and the fathers
could keep the carriages during the serv-
ice more of them would attend the serv-
ices regularly.
1T has been no uncommon sight to see
16 or II baby carriages lined up in front
'of tie church on Sunday afternoon. We
have taken census, and believe that at
least 100 families with babies will come
here If we give them suitable place
where their perambulators can be taken

Hot Wenther and Babies

watch the babies" exclaimed a fam
lily man yesterday afternoon after IL
friend had dropped comment on the
current batting average" of the mer-
curial tube. "July is the month to be
most feared and of course June and
August on both sides of that month are
very dangerous" said he.
I've reared four of 'em and just as
soon as hot weather comes 1 always
begin to worry about the babies. I'm
not medical man, but I believe that
nine out of ten physicians will agree
with me that summer heat during June,
July and August is directly and in
directly the cause of more infantile
deaths than any other condition a
growing child has to meet with.
LAS far as the heat itself is concerned
there is no so much danger, but
through the heat the little fellows
stomachs are weakened, their consti-
tuition and vitality are sapped and their
systems in general are made suscept-
ible to the dozens of children's ailments
that ultimately cause death. The secret
of the whole thing, from my experience
and observation, is to give the baby
plenty of water, both externally and in
ternally. and keep him cool. OF course.
with this must go ordinary common
sense in giving him food. The latter,
however, 1 believe is a matter in this
day and age which any average father
or mother can do satisfactorily If they
try.
For that reason I attach the most
Importance to bathing the baby's body
often, not less than once a day and
two or three times in real hot weather,
give him all the moderately cool water
he will drink and above all keep heavy
and hot clothes off him. Don't be afraid
he'll catch cold. The hotter it is the
he'll catch cold. The hotter it is the
are left enough clothes for common
decency and If the baby is real small,
a year old or younger. take him into
the nursery when he gets too hot and
strip him entirely.
More babies catch cold from having
on too many clothes than from not
having on enough during these hot
months"

farm are all used at the prison, and It
contributes materially to the subsistence
of the prisoners, and is source of econ
omy In maintaining the institution"
1t is not surprising tnar convicts should
seek the opportunity of working on the
prison farm. 1t gives them employment
in the open air and the surveillance, as
may be seen from the foregoing, is only
nominal. The men are virtually free"
during the hours in which they are at ia-
Dor. 1t would not be advisable. of course,
to trust all classes of prisoners to such an
extent, but experience has shown that
convicts, as whole. are more tractabls
and require less watching when engaged
in outdoor work, such as farm labor or
road building.
There should be a prison farm oper-
ated In connection with every peniten-
tiary. If there were no other reasons tha
fact that 1t can be made. as at Atlanta,
"a source Of economy in maintaining the
institution Is ample justincation for its
establishment. In addition every state
should employ at least some proportion Of
its prisoners in road building. 1t is no
longer debatable question as to whether
convicts can be profitably utilized in this
way. Several states are using prison Ia
Dor on their roads to great advantage and
prison farms are increasing in number and
in usefulness.
