CHILD WELFARE WORK
PROGRESSING N STATE
Parents Beginning to Appreci-
ate Benefits Of the Or
ganization.

The Child Welfare Commission had
m exhibit at the Harrington Fair given
by Kent and Sussex Counties the last Of
July. In corner OF the County Building
a room was screened against flies and
white walled with sheeting. There the
posters were on display, showing the
work OF tho Commission, and they we're
widely read. Children came automatic
ally to he weighed and measured and the
attitude was greatly changed from few
years ago. Then the work of the
commission was looked on with sus-
picion. Now parents come in to show
children who, on the advice Of the nurses,
have had eyes, ears OF throat treated and
are in much better health.
One mother told OF her fifteenth baby.
For the first time she bad followed tho
directions Of public health nurse, and
her last child was the healthiest. All her
relatives came to praise the work OF the
commission.
At recent conference held at the
rooms OF the Consumers League, which
was attended by many organizations
interested in children, it was agreed that
the following amendments be proposed
to the present Delaware Child Labo
| Law. To provide for the eight hour day
forty-eight hours a week, that the ag'
limit for cannery children be raised from
II to IA years; that the provision fol
special permits be abolished and tha
new3boys engaged in selling papers b
furnished with badge and required II

During July there have been $50 new
visits to the health centers in this cit,
and 1924 return visits. There were 81
home visits made for the first time ant
3,437 old cases visited. Seven childrel
were transferred, II discharged, fou
readmitted. 8 referred and four died
Throughout thes State 2l2 rev case

All homes visited for the first time an,
1870 for return visits, six caes discharged
two died and two referred.
During the two months and one wee
that the Children's Dental Clinic ha
been in existence, 1870 children have bee
registered. OF this number 156 hav
made one visit to the clinic. 81 hav
made two visits and one child has mad
three visits. Twenty-Five clinics hav
been held, makinga total OF II hour:
All the children who came canno
be cared for at the time, and the lei
over youngsters are given an appoint
ment later in the month.
To date 122 extractions and 10
filings have been made. The work {

After soaking, only the most
soiled clothes need light rubbing
with dry Rinse.
Its big, lasting suds is one secret
of RinsO's amazing power to dis
solve dirt. If you don't get lasting
suds you have not used enough
Rinse.
Your clothes don't need boiling
if you use Rinse. But if you like
to boil your white cottons, use
enough Rinse to get the suds you
like. Your clothes will be whittier
and more fragrant than ever.
