} HOME COMPANION.
D AAAAAA 49, ~ =

The March Woman's Home Compan-
ion contains a review of the work
already done by that publication in
the great campaign for Better Babies
which it has been carrying on for
year and which its Better Babies Bu-
reau under the direction OF Anna
Steese Richardson is to carry on dur
ing the coming year. One hundred
thousand babies have already been ex.
amined at contests and hundreds OF
thousands of mothers have been
helped by scientific suggestions as to
how to take care of their children.
The Companion has put the movement
on a sound basis and attracted to its
support the most influential body Of
medical men in the country, the AM
erican Medical association. 1t mas
standardized the Better. Babies move
ment by providing, free Of charge, the
most thoroughly scientific score-cards
wall charts. books Of detailed instruc-
ton and all other needful literature
that could be devised by experts and
insisting that these be used in all con-
tests. In other words, the Better
Babies Bureau has accomplished in
year what a generation of scattered
endeavor could not have brought
about And the movement is still
young!
