COMMITTEE NAMED
 IN HEALTH SURVEY
Mrs. E. B. Bloom Appointed Chairman of House-tO-house Canvass
 Committee.

Mrs. E. B. Bloom, Mrs. J. w. Sow ards, Mrs. k. M. Schober, Mrs. Jack Bernhardt, Mrs. c. E. Philpot. Mrs. w. R. Barriclaw and Mrs. w. D. Jones have been ppointed as a committee to assist Miss Jessie Mariner, who is conducting the health survey in this city, in making a house-to-house can vass in securing the desired informa- tion.
 Mrs. Bloom was appointed chairman of this committee. Mrs J. A. Mcleod is chairman of the committee on birth registration.
 It was Dr. J. w. Sehereschewsky, of the United States Public Health Ser vice. Washington, D. G., who once said: "Infants born in this country run a little worse chance than one to five of dying before the end of the first year. In other words, the average man runs a far better chance of not dying from an attack of typhoid fev- CT, than he does from dying an in- fant. The mere business. then, of be- ing a baby must be classified as an ex- tra hazardous occupation"
 The doctor goes to say that there has also been steady decline thru out the world in the annual number of births., On top of all that, the great world war is now killing off manhood by the hundreds of thousands. i>
 In view of these startling conditions, the local health inventory now being conducted by Miss Mariner of the Delineator's field force, must be class ed as one of the most patriotic of the many worthy enterprises now being put on under the general crusade of "conservation" that is sweeping the country.
 One baby out of seven it the United States dies before it is year old. Half of these deaths can positively be avoided if proper community health safeguards are established. To re- duce these ghastly deaths from one in seven to one in fourteen or less, is the noble aim of Miss Mariner and Dr. Dodd, who have instigated the campaign to make Pine Bluff health fer, hanDier and more wholesome place in which to be born and raised.
 It is to be hoped that the movement will be pushed to successful con- clusion and, meanwhile. that the peo- ple of this city will give their assis- tance to the committees working to secure the needed information. The very lives of your own children and those of your neighbors may depend upon the accuracy with which you re- spond to these queries Because, as soon as all the facts are accumulated, the expert Delineator Health board in New York, headed by Dr. c. E. Terry, the noted sanitarian, will work out a definite health, program which, if adopted by the citty government is bound to cut down the local infant death rate and incidentally make this city healthier place for adults to live and w"~k 'n
