BABY-WEEK PLANS
AND METHODS

How the strength of the nation is

viewed in a new bulletin on Baby

issued by the Children's Bureau of the
United States Department of Labor.
Approximately one in ten of all the
oaoieS born in the United States dies
before completing twelve months of
life' and the children's bureau saws:
1T was once thought that n high
infant death rate indicated a greater
oeSrec or Vlgor in the survivors, Now
IL IS agreed that the conditions which
destroy so many of the youngest lives
or the community must also result in
GRIPPING and manning MANY others
and must react unfavorably upon tbo
health of the entire community"
Two thousand one hundred commit
hltles have reported to the children's
bureau of the details of a baby dav mr.
baby week by which they called at
tention to the need of protecting their
babies. Ingenious devices for exhibits
new methods of distributing pamphlets
on BABY care, ways in which infor-
nation on local conditions was secured
and published. and other Interesting
features from these local reports are
described in the bulletin as suggestive
Tor those who are planning a similar
campaign.
Inc bureau says: mot all of the
100 communities reporting a babv
week campaign in 1916 may find if
wise to repeat the celebration in 1917.
put the United States includes 141Ss
Incorporated cities. towns, and villages
and it is doubtful if among the thou

tured the attempt to capture him.
The murderer had killed a man and
woman in Oklahoma City six years

they came upon his picture in a
Douglas paper. He was arrested and
thrown in the guard house. He es-

orders received were very definite to
the lieutenant in command. He should
stop the man in any effectual way

on the outpost were pacing along the
border line with their Springfields rest

Stag was dumped at the Calumet &

sky, the men on the outpost would
throw themselves flat on the rough
ground for fear Mexican "sniper"

of the border would find his mark
At 1880 p. m. shot was heard in
the direction Of the Montana camp, a
not uncommon sound. All was still for

were heard at the western end Of the

ers. all energetic and capable young
women of the city, who will see and
give both old and new subscribers an
opportunity to assist in the furthering
of this good work, which for six years
has been a credit to this city.
The Y. w. G. A. is not a charity. 1t
is partially self supporting. 1t is one
of the city's best assets and the citi-
zens' money invested in this movement
brings them ample returns in that the
organization is an influence and power
for good that no city can we'll afford
to do without. Its business is not to
reform but to create conditions where
reformation will not be necessary. The
workers are going out again and they
will meet with many who would like
to know of some Of the specific good
accomplished and something about the
expenditure Of the money.
The Business Management.
The finance department of the Y. w.
{. A. is composed of capable and ef-
Iicient business women, who make one
dollar do the work of two and whose
books are kept and audited as are any
other good business in the city The
departments of the association that are
self supporting are the cafeteria, a
majority of the rooms, the gymna stun
classes and the educational work.
The part that must be financed is
the general administration, including
the salaries and offices, the house OPP
Grafton. upkeep. light, the travellers
aid, social work, girls clubs and ma
tional and field work. The budget for
this year calls for $4,000. The associa-
ton operated on less than that amount
put there are new demands and the
work must go on. In connection with
this statement of a few facts might
not be amiss. During the past year,
from March. 1915, to March, 1917, the
cafeteria served 3O,S3S meals and took
in the sum of s6,913.4O. During the
year there were 26 permanent roomers
and 300 transients. Fifty emergency
cases were cared for. The represent
alive of the travellers aid department,
who meets all trains at the Northern
Pacific depot, helped 1857 persons,
The bureau of information and ON
ployment received $50 applications, of
which number IT'S were placed in pay
Ing positions. Three hundred and fiji
teen applications for domestics were
received from women in the city, to-
gether with a number of out of town
calls. Seven girls seeking positions s
stenographers were helped to find
work.
The total disbursement for the year
was s11,1s2.2O. The subscriptions from
last years financial campaign totaled
$2,l39.25 The association has 400
paid-up memberships. This year all
ladies' subscribing on dollar or more

and will be enrolled if they will ex-
