I find "experience' particularly helpful in
dealing with infants. A tiny, new infant is SO
helpless; he is barely able to give expression
to his cry. He needs some one to look after
him who is used to his little species, and who
IS able to interpret his wants without the help
even OF the expression of his little sleepy-shut
eyes. Do you know, by the way, that a baby's
eyes are like Kittens, inasmuch as they do

the stuff does not get inside of an infant
more often than, fortunately, is the case.
The dangers lurking in an innocent box Of
talcum are not generally realized, but almost
every mother knows that she should keep her
baby out of drafts. Does she carry her knowl-
edge a step further, however? Does she re-
alize exactly what constitutes a draft2
A draft is formed by the cross currents OF
air coming from directions at parallel points
to each other. If baby is placed between an
open window and an open door that face each
other, he is in draft. If, however the baby
IS put IN a room containing an open window
and an open door that are at right angles to
each other, then he is receiving not draft
but ventilation. The ideal nursery affords eS-
posture through two walls that do not face
each other, from window on the south wall
and one on the west wall, for instance.
Ii your baby catches cold easily, be careful
to keep the temperature of your nursery
around 60 or 65 degrees in winter, Sc that the
difference between outdoor and indoor temper,

cold through plunging from muchly heated
indoors into the cold of winters day.

them are idiots. The great majority of
them simply remain backward children.
With the right sort of care and training they
can be made at least partly sef-supporting.
But most Of this training must be along
manual lines. Many Of these detectives
have strong, healthy bodies. They can be
taught to do useful things, and they respond
readily to kindness and approval"
DR.. Bailey, who has made a study of the
subject for years, has issued report sum-
ming up his observations, and from this many
interesting points are to be cleaned con-
corning backward and defective children.
It is pointed out that half the cases which
appear before the New York City Children's
Court are brought there on account of i'm
proper guardianship. If all detectives could
be brought up in good homes, DR.. Bailey
says, they would cease to be the social men
ace which they are to-day. He holds that
the Lombroso theory Of the born criminal
must give way to the modern theory Of the
criminal created by early surroundings.
Owing to the high rate of detectives among
the foreign born--accOrding to DR.. William
C. Sandy it is 81 per cent of the detectives
in the state--Dr. Bailey asks why the i'm
migration laws regarding the admission Of
at all ports Of entry. He recommends that
special examinations for the purpose Of ex-
Guiding the mentally defective should be
made at all these ports, although even then all
cannot be kept out.
Nor does prohibition solve the problem of
the defective, according to DR.. Bailey. He
points out that the draft disclosed that chronic
alcoholism practically does not exist among
American negroes, yet the drafted negroes
presented extraordinary degree Of mental
defect-so much so that thousands of them
could not even be trained for service in labor
battalions. Detectives as class, DR.. Bailey
also says, have no great tendency to indulge
in alcohol.
AS result Of the special examinations
which were held as a result of the draft laws,
$4,000 recruits were prevented from going
to France on account of nervous and mental
defects. Many of these recruits, DR.. Bailey
says, were of the class that would have be-
come military offenders.
Agriculture and woodcraft form the best en-
Payments for defective boys, according to DR..
Bailey's observation, while defective girls,
when we'll trained, make excellent kitchen
maids, chambermaids mattresses, laundresses,
seamstresses, etc. Also, while being trained
in these employn1ents, they are brought to-
ward more stable morality and toward the
idea of partial or complete self-support.
The clinics held by the commission form an
important part of the work in behalf of de-
fectives. Fifteen clinics are held, mostly once
a month, in various parts Of the state, in hos
pitfalls, health center buildings, community well
fare centers and other places. These clinics
are being rapidly extended. Children who are
