The interest in baby week, as indi-
Gated by the fact that 445 babies have
been registered, is gratifying to the
members of the various committees
who have worked so hard to make
| it a success.
! Beginning with next Tuesday, May
1, and continuing on into the first two
| days of the following week, the fourth
floor of Pelletiers store will be the
busiest place in Topeka, and the most
fascinating.
The examination of babies will be-
gin at $50 each morning, and con-
tinue until in the afternoon. The
mothers whose babies are to be ex-
amined, must understand that unless
their babies are on hand at the APP
pointed time, as stated on their cards,
they will miss the examination. In
fact, owing to the great numbers of
babies to be scored, it has been found
necessary to carry it over into an
other week.
There will be nurses from all the
hospitals in the city in constant at
tendance, so that mothers may be as
sured that their babies will receive the
best of care.
The program for each afternoon of
the week, beginning May 1, is as fol-

time be drafted for military service.
they are putting in the time to the
best advantage they can. They go to
see their sweethearts in the evening
not knowing but they may be rudely
snatched away before the time for the
last car to leave.

riors thew have invented we are told
