Better Babies
Have You a Baby in Your
Home? If so, read this
Announcement

The Better Babies Contest is a
popular yet scientific movement
to insure better babies and a bet
ter race. It consists of enter
ing, examining and awarding
prizes to children of five years or
less on exactly the same basic
principles that are applied to live
stock shows. Mere beauty does
not count. Physical and mental
development only are considered.
The Better Babies Contest in
sures a better race of Americans,
because it teaches parents how
to improve the physical condition
of children already born and to
protect those yet unborn. 1t
arouses interest in the conserva-
ton of child life and health and
in all forms of child welfare. It
FORCES connecting link between
parents and teachers, between
the home and the scientific study
of child life. 1t promotes civic
interest in children of the COM
munity.
