ent Of the Visiting Nurse associa-

not only an essential to infant well
fare, but it is a necessity during the
summer months.
Ice Absolute Necessity.
"Ice is an important factor in
keeping down the infant mortality"
said Miss McCabe. 1--WE know that
the most critical time of child is
the period from birth to its second
year. The food must be kept in
proper condition during the warm
weather if infant disease and death
is to be kept at minimum. There is
no question that the lack OF ice is
responsible for many deaths among
infants. The harder it is for the
poor people with infants to obtain
ice. the more disease and deaths we
may expect among the little folks"
