FACE TEST OF
PERFECTION

One hundred and sixteen mothers
have registered the names of as many
babies for the Better Baby Contest. ."
which opens at the Delaware State
Fair tomorrow, the opening day.
More registrations are looked for.
and It IS probable that the entries
will total 125 or more The time for
the examinations has been appointed,
and doubtless there will be much
anxiety among the mothers, each of
whom, naturally. hopes that her own
little one may be listed in the
Perfect" Glass.
A large tent has been erected on
the grounds and the work of the ex-
amining committee will begin early
tomorrow. The tent has been divided
into several compartments, each of
which will be in charge of a volunteer
physician and nurse.
In compartment No. ! will be held the
preliminary examination. Mother and
baby are then passed on 90 the waiting
room from where they go into the next
compartment where the mental examin-
alton will take place. The physical
examination is held in the last compart-
ment.
This will complete the examinations.
and baby will then be taKen to the
dressing room to be dressed arter which
tea win be served the respective moth
ers.
At no time will the babies be exhibit
ed to the public, because Of the necessity
for having them kept quiet in order thar
the examinations and tests be entirely
satisfactory.
All mothers who have registered
their children for the better baby
contest which will open tomorrow at
the Delaware State Fair, are particu-
larly urged to bring tho entry card,
as we'll as the card of admission. it
having been learned the later card
only was thought necessary to bring.
1t is necessary that both cards be
brought by each mother tomorrow, as
the card OF admission would be use
less without the entry card.
