Mrs. Quina will give her support to
the movement for child conservation IN
Escambia County. While the plans for
the work ARE as yet vague, should 1t
be found advisable to take UP the work
here on any extensive scale. the prob
abilitS, is that special graduate nurse
will be placed in charge, one having
already offered her services. she hay
ing been formerly active in such work.
The program which is now being
conducted by the Children's Bureau,
under the auspices of the National
Council of Defense, is in line with the
Better Babies Contests which were IN.
augurated several years ago. two of
which contests were held successfully
in Pensacola, under the auspices Of the
Camp Fire Girls, of which Mrs. Fred
erick Young, then Miss Daisy Spencer,
was chairman. At that time these con-
tests were held under the direction of
the Woman's Home Companion, which
awarded Medals and certificates to the
prize winning babies, and SO success
full were the Pensacola contests that
not only did number of the pictures
of the prize winning babies appear in
the Companion, but the Better Baby
work in Pensacola was heralded
throughout the country, in the columns
of the magazine.
AS the Escambia County Woman's
Committee For War Work and the
Council of Defense are working di-
rectly along the same lines, the opin-
ion was expressed by the chairmen Of
both committees that the welfare work
would be merged, as the organizations
are identical in interest.
Chairmen Of both committees, how
ever, stated that as yet the plans had
not been outlined, but would be at the
meeting, and urged that all women Sn
Escambia interested in child welfare,
and especially the members Of both
be present at the San

ment seems essential to the best inter
ests of the County, in relation to the
conservation Of it's most important as
set, the child.
