Healthy and brave as humans go,

What Shall | Do With My Daughter?
Ill. INFANT WELFARE NURSING


seemed TO know more about. and care
more for her live stock. and her farm
animals than she has for her future
citizens. This attitude Of indifference
is giving place. however. TO one Of in
tense concern. Special child hygiene de-
partments are being established in state
and city departments of health and in
Vulnerable private agencies are CO.
operating with public authorities in
demonstrating the need for infant vel
fare work.
The first step taken in cities, towns
and counties where real fight is be-
, ing made against infant mortality is TO
appoint child welfare nurses who under
the direction of physicians are re-
sponsible for the care of mothers and
babies who cannot afford private
nurses, and who, because of ignorance
and poverty, are likely TO be neglected.
Every city which claims to have the
welfare of its inhabitants at heart is to-
day making an effort to study home
conditions under which its babies live,
and to see that they are given proper
care. Infant Welfare stations and
Baby Clinics are multiplying in all
parts of the country, and the baby wei
fare nurse has come TO be a recognized
institution. She is a student of condi-
tions which are responsible for the high
infant death rate, and as a collector of
information and statistics she has al
ready proved invaluable to local gov
eTnments. She not only knows why so
many children die in their first year,
but she can and does prevent deaths
which would occur if il were not for her
watehfulness.
Whether the baby welfare nurse in
employed by the Division Of Child Hy
giene of city government, whether she
acts for a hospital or baby clinic, or is
engaged by woman s club or Visit
ing Nurse society her service is that of
advisor and educator. She |
is bound to become one of the most i'm
portant factors in the campaign for bet
ter babies, and for more live babies and
fewer dead ones.
The work of the infant welfare nurse |
is very much like that of any other pub
lie health nurse except, of course, that |
she specializes and devotes her entire
time to the care of mothers and babies,
and directs all her efforts towards max
ng and keeping them both well.
The baby welfare nurse has a tremen
lous responsibility. Her daily routine
demands faithfulness and close atten-
tion. In cities where the board of health
works in close connection with physi
Clans and where prenatal care is provid-
I'd the nurse is given the names of all
mothers in her district. She
Keeps them Under supervision until the
children are born ana then assumes re-
,ponsibility for the babies as well as
for the mothers. She makes weekly
visits to their homes, shows them how
TO prepare the baby's food, under the
1octor's instructions. She is constant
y, though unobtrusively, teaching les
sons of hygiene and sanitation and help

quently the new "ribbonette" skirts
are sure to win in walk. To begin
with the wonderful new ribbons are
quite the most beautiful creations in
the fabric field-to end with they are

of Persian ribbon to begin a skirt as a
yoke and another width of Persian
ribbon to end it at the hem the answer
is a bit of Persian perfection.

a stunning skirt has perpendicular
stripes of vivid Roman stripe ribbon, 10I
inch width alternating with plain en-
erald green ribbon of equal width. The
effect of the plain toned ribbon of
course accentuates the fact that the en-
tire skirt is formed of ribbon lengths
alone.
Gorgeously flowered ribbons alternat-
ing with the one toned strips are as
effective as the Roman striped ones and
you are sure to 60 dotty over white

In many of the ribbon skirts the plain

strips bring joy to the portly persons
who are short of stature and breadth
