for its babies IL the best economy
in the end" Miss Lathrop said.
From now on, the District ought
never to let II be said that q single
baby died in its limits for want OF
care. To enlarge the work OF the
baby hospital camp is a splendid
campaign. Nothing could be more
important nor better public economy.
A baby IL too precious to be lost, and
no baby is too poor to be precious.
Certainly l want to do what I can
in this work"
Miss Bell, district secretary OF the
Associated Charities and acting sec
rotary in the absence OF Walter S.
UTord. IL equally enthusiastic.
IF the Government will appropriate
this money. It will be the most splendid
thing that has happened to the District
for many years." Miss Bell said.
MANY years the babies have been re-
turned to the city before the hot weather
was over for lack Of funds TO continue
the hospital camp. don't know how
many OF them have died. but / do know
that we could have been almost certain
Of saving them could we have kept
them in the camp until cool weather.
District Has Done without.
Most Of the people In Washington
are from other localities and more in
terested. naturally. in doing things for
their own communities than for the Dis
triet. and the District, not having any
representative OF Its own. has just had
to 20 without thinEA
"a very important work Of the
camp which ought to be continued IL
the Government and the District take
1t in charge is the teaching of the
mothers by trained social workers. II
isn't enough to take q sick baby out
to the camp and make IL well, you
must also instruct the mother so that
she can keep It well.
I'VE had one interesting case where
q woman's second baby's life was
saved at the camp. After she had
been instructed in Its care and feed
ing, she declared that Il would never
be necessary for any other children
Of hers to go out there because she
now knew how to prevent them from
getting sick. She's been as good as
her word. Her third child f. perfectly
healthy and has no need Of the baby
hospital camp"
