The Niauer Lumber company. who,
had the misfortune of losing its en-

again steamed up, having built an
entire new mill, which will in very

proof by building almost entirely
with cement and brick, and will be

RED CROSS ROLL CALL
NOVEMBER \ TO q
SOLDIERS AND BABIES.


Before America entered the wa,
there was popular song which every
| Eody remembers, 81 didn't raise m,
boy to be a soldier" The idea was
presumably, that no mother deliberate
! ~ trained her son for a profession in
which he ran the chance Of getting
| killed.
1t would probably shock some of
those mothers to tell them that the
way they are raising their babies is
fur more dangerous than if they were
planning to send them into battle. Yet
it is absolutely true. Statistics show
that only one out of every forty Ameri-
can soldiers was killed in the Argonne.
whereas one cut of every eight babies
dies in America each year. In other
words, it is far more dangerous to be
a baby nowadays than it is to be a
fighting man.
After all, this is not the fault of
the mothers. The vast majority of in
FAINT deaths, we are told, occur dur.
ing the first week or month and are
attributable to improper care of moth
ers and babies at birth and immediate.
~ after birth And the blame of those
deaths lies most directly at the door
of the communities in which they live.
It is they, it is the public which should
