5000 CONNECTICUT BIRTHS
NOT PUT ON THE R

NOT PUT ON I'll hECOhD6
 Failure to record the births of 5000 children born in Connecticut last year is reported by James P. Balfe, director Of the bureau of vital statistics in the state department of health.
 .Those who are responsible for the re- porting of births" said MT. Balfe, should carefully consider the following advantages of birth registration and re- alize that their neglect deprives these babies of their benefits:
 To establish identity, to prove nation ality, to prove legitimacy, to show when the child has the right to enter school, to show when the child has the right to seek employment under the child labor law, to establish the right of inheritance to pro- perty, to establish liability to military duty, as well as exemption therefrom, to establish the right to vote, to qualify ,, to hold title to, and to buy or sell real estate, to establish the right to hold public office, to prove the age at which l the marriage contract may be entered into to make possible statistical studies of health conditions.
 For the encouraging of birth registra- I tion the health department is sending 8 1 complimentary birth certificate to the
 mother of every newborn child. With l this certificate is sent booklet on the 1 care of the baby.
 The birth rate for February. the las month for which the records are com plete, show slight increase in the birtl 1 rate over that for the correspondint month of last year, which was the low est in the, past six years. While the rat was 22.7 in February, 1919, it was 22.' for the same month of this year. Mean
 while, the death rate leaped from A..
 in February. 1919, to PA in the sam | this year, which is far the highest deatl
