Something About the Methods
Of Judging the Tots at
Fair.
ARE JUDGED ON 22 POINTS
Science Of Child Rearing to Be
Explained By PhySi-
clans.

A writer in one of the most popu
lar magazines decribes some of the
results of the Third Baby Health
Contest at the Iowa State Fair. To-
wa was a pioneer in this kind of
work and naturally results there
have passed the experimental stage.
This year hundreds of babies were
measured, examined, and scored at
this State Fair while thousands of
babies have been entered at the va
rious state and county fairs from
coast to coast. Parents have gained
many new ideas for the diet and
proper care of children. That they
are pleased with the results is shown
by the fact that ma y of the babies
entered in the Iowa Fair this year
had been entered on previous years.
Old records were compared with
new and in almost every instance the
delighted parent learned that the
care used throughout the last year
had corrected some small imperfec-
| ton or added to the child's develop
ment. If baby scored high last year
many wish to see if he is keeping up
to the standard since he has been
placed on solid food diet. If he is
falling off in any one particular or is
failing to develop regularly. his par
ents are eager to know the where
and why.
The scor ng at the Iowa Fair is
carried on in tents as the great wo-
mans building at Des Moines-for
which money has been appropriated
largely because of the need of quar-
tiers for the baby show-has not been
completed. The scoring has been
perfected until it is very complete.
Women physicians are in charge and
are able to give many timely sug-
gestions to mothers regarding the
baby's development that will save
much annoyance and perhaps doc
tors fees later.
There are three tents: in the first
the babies are received, enrolled and
the nationality and the family his
tory recorded. In the second tent
the physical examination is made.
The measurements are taken, the
eyes, nose and throat examined,
each separate feature is measured
and scored, especial attention is CIV
en- to facial expression, the quality
of the skin and the condition of the
muscles and bone. "A careful record
is made of some % points and much
other date of great value to the ply
stefan is secured. In the third tent
the psychological tests are made.
The child is given to handle and talk
about a number of simple articles
that come within his ability and
years. Blocks. rattles and various
small articles are used to score his
Intelligence, tractability, alertnes~
and mental strength.
They have certainly reduced the
new idea almost to a science in Iowa
and further development in helping
parents to rear their children may
be expected from the great Middle
West where they never do things by
halves.

A Good Rule In
Newton County
The Cigarette Smoker And
Bully Will Not BE
Tolerated

Atlanta, Ga, March 26. -New-
ton County Georgia, is destined
to become the haven for school
teachers, especially women teach
ers, all of which is caused by a
recent order of the board of edu-
cation of the county issuing an
order that all pupils who persist
in smoking at school, or going
thereto or from, must be expelled
also they give the teacher privilege
of expelling any unrulY child who
is disposed not to obey the school
rules.
The order was passed at the last
board meeting and has already had
marked effect. 1t was advocated
by the superintendent of schools
j. O. Martin, who stated that the
cigarette smoker was q nuisance
that should be dispensed with in
stanter, and that in many of the
schools young women were en-
ployed as teachers and that the
"big boy'' or the ''bully" was al
ways to be contended with.
1t is a we'll known fact that in
rural communities a favorite past
time with the large boys of the
school is to ''try" the teacher and
to discuss among themselves what
tt ey would do if the teacher should
attempt to whip them. This, how
ever, will not go in the schools of
Newton any more.
