BABY SAVING TO

Clinics at Courthouse.
SCHOOLS TO AID LITTLE ONES
Lecture and Demonstration in
Each of City's Institutions
Daily Feature.

Tulsa Will inaugurate its first baby
saving campaign at 2 o'clock Tuesday
afternoon in the basement of the
courthouse. Clinics, which will be
this citys chief observance of baby
week, begin at that time.
Unfortunately the affair will not be
as large in scope as at first contem-
plated. Owing to lack of time and
adequate help to complete the work
of organization the women in charge
have decided to abandon their original
plan of having all the babies in Tulsa
brought in for clothing, and instead
are concentrating their efforts on the
baby clinic. Mothers of babies who
are sick or ailing, who have any phys
ical deficiencies, or babies who do not
seem to be thriving sufficiently. are
urged to bring them to the clinic.
Mothers of well babies are requested
to attend the school programs to be
given by doctors thruout the week In
the city schools.
Doctors and Mothers In Charge.
Six doctors, two nurses and many
Tulsa mothers will be in charge OF the
clinic at the court house. Miss IL. G.
Ziegler, superintendent of the okla
| homa Hospital and Miss Clara Nc
Candless will assist at the clinic
/ Mrs. George Hollow is chairman of
the general committee. The finance
committee consisting of Mrs. George

grams committee.
