73 ITALIAN BABIES
WEIGHED In ONE DAY

Seventy-three Italian babes and chill
dren were examined yesterday after
noon at the weighing and measuring
welfare station at the Italian Settle
ment, in the campaign 10 save the
babies OF Delaware from infant ailments
during this year. This is the second
highest number Of children examined
at any one station in the present move
ment.
OF the children tested, ten were over
years Of age. But the mothers OF these
children were fearful that. perhaps
there was something the matter with
them. and they wanted the opinion OF
the nurse and a comparison with the
health standards OF normal children.
Several mothers brought children
back TO be reweighed, and one OF thes'
| was suffering with a summer ailment
Other mothers whose babes have beer
taken in since last week brought tn
children 10 the station. and pleaded
with the nurse 10 look them over anC
give them some advice about them.
One Of the results Of the children
year campaign has been the improving Of
sanitary conditions In certain sections
OF the city. In one street the health OF
the neighborhood was always menaced
because there were no sewage conneo-
tlons. This defect was reported TO the
Board OF Health, and the need for II
made emphatic, and now the property
owners have been notified to have the
tenant houses connected with the
sewer.
Similar conditions in other sections

workers. and abuses and nuisances are
being reported 20 the health onl-
Gals. with requests for their abatement
