immediately affect the welfare of in- Ifants.
 There are 3,009 counties in the Unit led States. In every county seat there should be center for the health work of that county-a station for examin- ing babies, and older children, and for furnishing expert advice for keep ing them well-in short, health teching center. We must have complete birth regis tration.
 All these will be institutions for the common use-no more revolutionary, no more eleemosynary, than public schools and weather bureaus and ag- ricultural experiment stations.
 The New Zealand infant mortality rate is less than one-half of ours and is being further reduced.
 Why take less pains for American babies than New Zealand takes?

statistical table and never will. Yet hidden within the figures of the Blu reau's reports on infant mortality, the reading of which they will sue cessfully evade, lie stern facts about the dangers which beset American babies.
 These figures give clue to the req sons why, on the great average, one baby in eight dies before the end of the first year of life. They show that this average obscures wide gamut with comparative immunity from in fant loss at one end and with fearful infant waste at the other. If the Bureau is to investigate and to report as the law directs, then it must try to find ways of reporting which will be heard by the whole pub lie which it was created to serve.
 The popular methods of the Baby Week, which are those of all astute advertisers, form an invaluable me thod of reporting to the parents of this nation those standards of infant welfare which experts are endeavor- ing to make clear.
 The Baby Week emphasizes the constructive side of infant care. It addresses not only individual parents but communities.
 The best test of it's value will be the work that follows it:
 Undoubtedly every State Board of Health should secure what only six States have at present-a special di vision of child hygiene. No city or town should fail to provide instruc- tive nursing service and to pay con stant heed to the problems of hygiene and sanitation, of proper housing and of recreation spaces, since all these

PROSPEROUS WITHOUT LIQUOR.

Butler, Mo. is another town which is demonstrating that prosperity fol lows prohibition. It Is today, says the Kansas City Star, "a better, richer and more prosperous town than ever. The merchants carry better stocks, the business houses are heater, cleaner and better; the people live in better and more attractive homes and enjoy life in more rational and healthful ways. There are fewer idle people and merchants have fewer bad debts.
 When the saloons were voted out Butler had bonded debt of something like S20,000 on its electric light plant. and notwithstanding the revenue from it's four saloons. 1t was a hard matter to meet interest payments, and the liquidation of the principal seemed a long way off. Since the closing of the saloons the debt has been paid and many needed public improvements have been made, and all without in- creasing the tax rate one penny. Tn fact the tax rate is now lower than ever before"

BUSINESS ON SUNDAY CLOSING.

Heads of the big industrial con cerns of Chicago see very direct re- lation between the enforcement of the Sunday-closing law and the phys ical and mental condition of their em- ployees on Mondays, and naturally they are not inclined to agree with the liQuorites' caustic criticism of the pur itanical undemocratic law and it's en- forcement. The men who manage the great industries tell us that Sunday drinking has meant lessened eff ciency, decreased mental and moral stamina, Appreciated physical vigor and the wasting of money and conse- quent worry over financial conditions.
 Our workmen now come to the plants on Monday morning with clear heads and rested bodies,' said a fore man of Armour and Co.,, the big pack all packers before the saloons were closed that many of the men either did not show up at all on Monday or reported with 'hangovers that re- duced their efficiency 50 per cent dur ing the day, and affected it for sev- eral days thereafter. Now the men are on hand Monday morning with steady muscles. rested bodies and minds, fit for their tasks"
 Our workmen were all on hand last Monday for the first time in years" said one of the foremen of the Illinois Steel company. the week after the Sunday-closing nv WIS enforced. When we asked them what caused the change they said they had noth- ing to do Sunday but rest for Mon- day. Besides, most of them had enough of their wages left not to need to ask for advances before the next week ended"
 The closing of the saloons is boon to industry" said one of the depart ment managers of the International Harvester works. When the em- ployees have had time to note it's ef- feet, they will give it their heartiest support"
 The direct effect on the building trades is that about 25 per cent more workmen were on hand last Monday than at any time during the period have been handling large numbers of workmen,' said a member of the Con- tractors Association of Painters and Decorators.
