an arrest shortly afterward.
A servant in the house of George h.

sisters, it was reported today. A par
tial clue was furnished by DR.. William

that of girl on whom he operated
for abscess recently, and the servant

BETTER babies
THE PURPOSE OF

The agricultural fairs. which are
responsible for raising the standard
OF farm life and for standardizing
stock. grain and farm products in
general, have taken up a new line OF
work They are improving farm
product that has been in a way, sad
ly neglected-the farm baby. Incl
dentally, they are giving the town
and city baby a helping hand. and
they are doing Ii all through what is
known as a better babies contest.
Such a contest will be held at the
next Delaware State fair The babies
are entered like any other exhibit at
an agricultural fair. but with this diff
ference-they are not on exhibition
all the time They are examined by
judges. just as live stock, grain or
apples are examined. The judges are
physicians, and they test the baby
by standards, which have been set by
specialists in the care and feeling OF
children, who know just how much a
baby should weigh and measure. and
what its general development should

Many persons can look back TO the

who thought they were raising pretty

entered them IN competition with what

they learned that they were raising
/ prize winning products; again they
found that their farm products We're

And what did they do these men who
took second, third and last prizes
They went back 10 their farms, took
better care of their livestock. raised
better grain the next year, and they
have been doing that ever since. m,
result has been higher grade of prod

This is what the fair officials ar,
doing when they oiier prizes for better
babies in the better babies contests
They are setting a standard for baby
health and baby strength and baby de
velopment. They are notifying parents

town and city, for comparison will
these standards. They are giving prize
TO the babies pronounced best by thl
Judges and, best of all, when the bahie
do not win prizes. the judges are telling
the parents why, and how the hab.
can be made better for another year
fair, and for all its life The result j
