An interesting feature of the war
work, for it can no doubt be included
in the various activities in behalf of
the national government at the pres
ent time. is the determination of the
children'S bureau in the department of
labor To save babies and young chill
dren. Preparation for what is called
4 drive" word very much used in
connection with all war work, has
been in progress for several months
and "Childrcn's Year" IS TO begin
April &, the anniversary of the entry
of the United States into the world
war. The bureau announces that its
campaign is to save 100000 babies and
young children during the year, but
this is only part of Il big program
for the welfare of 30000,OOO children
under fifteen years of age in the
United States.
Investigation by the children's bu-
raau has shown lack of care and con
sidcratiOn for the children, and that
many babies die from lack of care
ami n0uriShment due in many cases to
the poverty of the parents, but in most
cases to the ignorance of the parents
in the care of children

Most Could Be Saved.

"I see no essential reason why the
United States should have an infant
mortality rate twice as high as that OF
New Zealand" he told the officials Of
the children'S bureau. 81 fancy that
with you. as with us. most of the b;i-
hieS who die could have been saved
by proper care. You are losing, as
understand it, about one baby in every
ten under one year old. 1t is not
..any years since we had in New Zca
land an infant death rate almost as
high rs that, but we have brought it
down until now we lose about one
baby in twenty during the first year OF
age. and we fully expect to reduce it
still further
THE method Is after all very simple.
We have corps of nurses who are
specially trained in the principles OF
child care and who are at the service
of all mothers who wish to learn how
10 take care of themselves and how
10 take care of their babies. We
have consultation centerS to which
mothers of all classes, come for adj
vice, and we have hospitals where
mothers and babies who are slightly
ailing stay a week or more for closer
observation and special instruction.
And then we have managed to
make the care of children topic Of
general interest and discussion. Our
work is now subsidized by the govern
ncnt hut its success depends largely
on the widespread popular support 1T
has had from the beginning.

"Your plans for children's year
and the saving of 100000 lives of chill
drcn under FIVE years of age are eX-
tremeIy interesting. And such reduc-
ton in your mortality rate among
babies and young children ought to
be entirely possible. OF course, be-
