How intelligence, determination and
united effort triumph over conquest.
war and famine is vividly portrayed
in a paper read at the second inter-
national conference on the protec-
ton Of childhood. recently held in
Brussels. by DR.. Rene Sand of the
Uriyersi,y of Brussels, copy OF
which has reached Washington.
According to this paper, even dur
ing the years of occupation. when
the government had left Belgium
soil and the only central co-ordinat-
ing agency was the voluntary comite
national. public health activities were
started on a hitherto unknown scale,
and for the first two years there
was an actual decline in infant NOR
,alty. DR.. Sand accounts for this
In part by the cessation of industrial
work for women.
Retarded Full Year.
The average Belgian child was. at
the time of the armistice, one full
year backward in normal develop
ment. the weight OF the average
Brussels schoolboy was three pounds
below normal. while the average
schoolgirl was seven pounds below

several things as police reporter
ana In his association with the de-
partmcnt In connection with his
work as secretary to Mayor Thomp-
son. OF Chicago. And here is one OF
the things he learned.
Citizens look upon a fireman as
q man who saves citizens from the
flames and who saves citizens
homes, while the same citizens look
upon a policeman as man who
arrests them-nothIng more"
This IL tho cue that started Fitz-
morris on the road TO police sue
cess-success. because crime IS
greatly on the decrease in Chicago.
He started out by teaching the po-
licemen TO help citizens in every way
possible, to teach these citizens that
the policeman was not merely on
hand TO arrest them" but TO help
them.
Merit System Installed.
To get policeman 20 adopt this
attitude. Fltzmorris insta lied sys-
TEN OF promotion--that "A man was
placed automatically in line Tor pro-
motion when he did service OF merit.
To prevent obstinate policemen,
who refused to cooperate in the
new movement from hindering the
movement by following the old sys-
tenn, Fitzmorris made IT automa;-
ically punishable for policeman
who neglected his duty.
Forty-seven railroads center in
Chicago, which has a population OF
more than 100000 persons, In ad-
dition to floating tramp influx"
of $50 a day. This is the same
population" that Chicago had
three years ago, when the crime
wave was at its height.
I'VE reward our policemen when
ever their acts are meritorious and
punish them when they fail to do
their duty" Fitzmorris said. I'VE
made It mandatory that when a po-
liceman performed an act OF merit
he was Automatically elevated in

crime rather than trace II down

the promotion of public health, in
cluding the health of working moth
ers and their children.
In the United States Is states pro-
vide for the physical examination Of
every child entering industry. but no
state has provided for examinations
of working children at regular inter
walls. Belgium has adopted the ad-
vanced program OF medical ex-
animation for every juvenile not lat
er than a month after II has entered
an industrial occupation, to be re-
peatcd once year until the child
reaches is. and oftener in case of
disease.
Working Youth Protected.
Belgium has realized that health
protection in the community must
go hand in hand with health pro-
lection in industry. and DR.. Sand
emphasizes the following points:
General public health work, child
welfare, housing, the restriction of
alcohol consumption and education
and recreation both for adults and
children.
A national children's board has
been established, which is main-
tained by public and private funds.
The child welfare program includes
the periodical free examination of

nation; the establishment of free

Jennie Curtis, Mis- Louise Spear,
Miss Jane Terrill, Miss Helen Saw
age, Miss Gertrude Harris, and
Miss Dorothy Drew. The first
course served at the home OF Miss
Nelma Lance on Green street. at
half after sir, was fruit cocktail
and tuna bsh wiggle. The party
then went to the home of Miss
Eleanor Sheldon where delicious
potato salad and rolls were served.
The decorations at both. places
were of golden glow and lavender,
sweet peas. The place cards were
very pertinent hints on correct
table manners. The favorS were
sweet peas tied With lavendar rib
bon. At the last place, the home
Of Miss Dorothy Drew, the guests
were served with coffee floats and
cake. The table was decorated
with vases of pink sweet peas, and
similaX, and a rose shaded lamp
as centerpiece. The favors were
tiny candlesticks with green cand-
les. The evening was rounded out
with informal dancing and singing.
