London Aug. 3.-The fourth Brit
ish National Baby Week is in full
swing. This year London takes
second place, the principal confer
ences being held in the Midlands,
Manchester. Leeds, Birmingham and
other big Industrial centers.
National Baby Week is an edu-
cational movement which was be-
gun by Lord Rhondda, who un-
fortunately died during the second
celebration in 1913. The work is
being carried on by Lord Rhondda's
associates, including his daughter.
formerly Lady Mackworth. now
Viscountess Rhondda, in her own
right.
The directing power is a council,
OF which the queen is matron;
Lloyd George, president; Lord Astor.
chairman, and Lady Rhondda, vice
chairman. On the executive com
mittee, among many famous names
are: Hon. Austin Chamberlain, NJ
p; the Duchess Of Marlborough,
Lady Jellicoe, Lady French, Mrs. H
B. Irving and Lord Milner.
Babies were well enough in their
place; but their place was a very
small one in the national conscious
ness. Free trade was a live subject
and so were world commerce and
taxation and the land question. But
babies? Well. babies were just
babies-let their mothers take care
Of them.
Then came the war with its ap-
palling destruction of life, and fol
comfort tho nation turned to the
babies, babies that were to fill the
places of the slain and give fresr
life and vlgor to the stricken nation
