could go with baby to a hospital to
have the trouble looked into.
There hasn't been any magic in
this New Zealand experiment. No
wonderful new discoveries have been
evolved. All the processes are IA
miliar to doctors, nurses and moth
ers elsewhere. What was new was
the Willingness of a whole commun-
ity to join in fine pursuit of baby
culture-to join in saving babies no
matter how poor they were.
We could do as well here.
But remeber this: Statistics in
the children's bureau at Washington
won't save many babies. Rules and I
advice from the health Office won't
save a great many babies.
If you want to save the greatest
number of babies you'll have to take .
your advice to poor mothers in $2-a-
day and $1-a-day homes, and make }
possible for them to apply good feed 7
ing, good air, care, all three of which

and COWS and bank .clearingS and fac
tory output and real estate transfers
and business failures, this govern
ment would be able to save the babies
of the poor. Saving the babies of
the poor is the real problem involved
in the enormous infant death rate in
the United States.
But Uncle Sam hasn't the idea yet.
He thinks mostly about pigs and COWS
and business, and, now and then, in
reflective sort of way, talks about
getting some statistics of the baby
death rate.
Just as though it made any differ
ence whether the exact number is
100000 in a year or 100000 in year.
Everybody knows it's somewhere be-
tween those two big figures. The
time is here to, do real things, not
pile up tables of statistics.
From New Zealand we get the
story of doing things to save baby
lives.
In one city in New Zealand-Dune-
din, a place of $4,000 inhabitants as
the result of a really determined
baby-saving campaign, the percent
age of infant deaths has in five years
been reduced from to less than q.
A big-hearted doctor, TRULY King,
started the ball rolling. He inspired
and guided the organization of So
ciety, with which, pretty soon, nearly
everybody was cooperating. 1t
hired nurses and built hospitals and
started upon a campaign to teach eV-
cry parent in the neighborhood how
to get ready for baby, what to do
when baby came, how to feed baby
how to do all these things. some

sary), even if fathers wages were

THE camps are filed with a new party
OF white-faced youngsters from the parts

out by the committee today.
There are nearly twenty sick babies at
the Baby Hospital camp who are all too
sick TO be sent home, but who are still
facing this issue. as without money we
cannot keep them there. Between six and
seven hundred children have already been
benefited by the outings in the country

Following his visit to his uncle, who is
eighty-seven years old and still actively
engaged in serving the government, Mr..
Harrison went to Baltimore to see old
friends there. Before leaving he said:

"At last I'm wise, l will arise,

muttered low the ancient DO, and
then he hit the track. From
dwellings rude he'd oft been
shooed, been chased by farmers
dogs: this poor old scout, all

it took him long to recognize the
truth, that there's a glad and
smiling dad for each repentant
youth. Il will arise, doggone my
eyes" the prodigal observed,
"and try to strike the old straight
pike from which l idly swerved."
The father saw, while baling
straw. the truant, sore and
lamed; he whooped with joy;
my swayback boy, you're well
come" he exclaimed. Midst glee
and mirth two dollars worth of
fireworks then were burned;
well kill cow cried father,

His sisters sang, the farmhouse
rang with glee till rafters split,
his mother sighed with hope and
pride, his granny had fit, And
it's today the same old way, the
lamp doth nightly burn, to guide
