PRIZES FOR LITTLE TALES
Chance offered to Win Money and
Help the Fatheriess Children
of France.

Chicago.-Many thousands of the
children of France were rendered IA
therless by the great war. These lit
tie ones we're the especial pets of the
Yankee soldiers who got across, and
the doughboys have brought or writ
ten home countless interesting or pa
thetic stories about them. The chance
is now offered to put these tales to
double account. A number of daily
newspapers in various parts of the
country offer cash prizes, ranging
from 500 to 81, for the best true
stories of the French children sent In
by anyone who was in France in any
capacity during the war. All the
stories submitted, whether winning
prizes or not, will be considered dona-
lions to the publicity committee of the
organization known as 1.-THE Fatherless
Children of France" and will be used
to raise funds for the support OF
those bereaved little ones.
No especial literary ability is re-
uuired to capture these prizes and
anyone who could write home a letter
can win one. The contestant is asked
only to tell, out of his experience, the
story of some little French child who
impressed him by its courage, devo-
ton, tragic experience or friendliness
to the American soldier. Wives and
s~weethearts need only to dig down
into the box where Bills letters are
kept and find the one which told about
the little girl near Verdun who was
asleep in the dog kennel, or hunt up
Bert's story about the small boy and
his dog who wanted to join the Amer
lean army and fight the Germans all
the way to Berlin.
The conditions of the contest car
be obtained by writing to "The Father
less Children of France" Room 634

Infant Welfare and Milk
Stations May both Come

CONTINUED from page -
supervision over the depot. They,
like Orange, 10 not pay particular at
tention to the Infant welfare.
At Jersey City, N. j., L found al
together a different state of affairs. 1
first made the acquaintance of DR..
O'Gorman, Chief of the Division of
Child Hygiene. He was very pleas
ant to me in as much as he showed
me everything connected with this
infant welfare station. Gentlemen,
here is a real work. These stations,
s in number, were started, one by
one, the original one being started
with an appropriation of $1350.00
and the present appropriation for
1919 was SOS, 100000.
l have brought home q small book
which very well overs the work as
handled by them. The subject of a
milk station is purely secondary and
they pay little or no attention to them.
because they have created a demand
for a good grade of raw milk through
the medium of the mother. Pasteur-
lied milk is not tolerated. This seems
a funny stand for Jersey City to take
in view of the fact, that the first
municipal pa%steurizing plant in the
United States was started here. and
now abolished in favor of infant well
fare work.
Now m the proposition of a
milk station in Perth Amboy. If one
is run in conjunction with the child
welfare station, / believe it would be
all right, but from what-I can learn,
by a small survey conducted in the
district surrounding No. 9 school, by
the nurses from his Department, il
brings out these facts.
/. That a large part of the people
in Budapest do not care about chang
ing their milk for the reason that
most every other neighbor owns a
hood with a very good grade of raw
milk, and the children for the most
part, are thriving very well, hence,
they do not care to change.
2. That there are but only a few
people who would care to patronize
such a station.
8. With most of this neighborhood.
it is not a question of good milk, but
how much cheaper 0 will sell it
They are now buying milk from II
to IA cents per quart.
4, Number 8 school is not an ap-
propriate place to establish a milk
station as the facilities there are not
desirable il your intentions are tc
prepare modified milk for infant
feeding, in as much as there is no gas
installed, and if it was our desire to
sterilize anything, by boiling, it would
be necessary to purchase a very ex-
pensive electrical apparatus for this
purpose. These, 1 find are not only
expensive, but are very apt to get
out of repairs, hence they would be
of no real value to us.
We are now investigating another
section of town for the purpose oil
as%certaining the feeling of the peo-
pie toward the milk station.
a.. -@.. ~ ~ ,AnI thA 1ift1n hnnk-
let which I have brought from Jersey
City, 1 believe that you will direct
all your afforts to seeure at least one
infant welfare station.
