One Must Figure Well
~ in Advance

We begin with the unborn child. OF 100
possible births, ten are lost in advance.
Of the remaining ninety, no fewer than
fifteen die in the first year. Among in
fants the mortality is thus 25 per cent, or
much higher than that of modern army
in active service over similar period.
Roughly, the loss is 10000 a year, Of
which half should be saved-hrst, by notify
o ing births as soon as they occur, which
has been very useful; and, secondly, by
establishing mothers welcomes, where in
struction can be given in advance of birth,
and where the babies can be weighed and
watched Such measures in Huddersfeld
rapidly reduced mortality from 1873 per
thousand to eghty-five per thousand
Next take infants up to five years old.
These arc no longer welcome in the ordi-
nary class rooms, which were never in
tended to be nurseries. Therefore, the
plan is to multiply such day nurseries where
the child will be cared for when the mother
Is at work, whether in the home or in the
factory. Trained nurses are needed for
this system. Also the children will be
under constant medical supervision. Good
habits must be begun early and physical
weaknesses can best be corrected at the
outset. 1t is in the creche and the open
air playground that we hope to stamp out
tuberculosis. From this period onward mcd-
cal inspection of children and treatment
where necessary will be an indispensable

To do this is all essential at this criti-

Briefly, the enemy sues for an easy
pcacc because he now knows that he is
beaten irretrievably; that there now can
be no counting upon mere delay. He
fears he cannot stand on any line for

After June / the government will no

hips through the United States Ship
ing Boards because Of fear that Amer.
an hold on foreign trade will be lost
the news which A. Lewis, Jr., brought
ack to Honolulu, when he returned on

He reports that the many vessels
hich have been operated under the
irect control of the operating division
the shipping board are to be turned
ack to the various American steam
hip companies, both on the Atlantic
nd the Pacific.
The explanation offered for the pro-
osed change is that the American
oreign trading facilities were rapidly
'eing disorganized, which had taken
lany years to establish. Representa-.
ives of all the steamship companies
re now expected to be sent to Wash
ugton in an effort to get as many of
ne vessels turned back as is possible
or their companies.
One result Of the intended change al.
eady expected is that the American
hawaiian Steamship Company and the
.uckenbach Company will restore their
an Francisco Atlantic services.
