old Eastern proverb says.
There is real need of rest and change
for many of us after long stretches
of care, anxiety, sorrows and disap-

The tension of the responsibility of
the physician, chief engineer of electric

"hard to pull through" all owing to the

New Law Is Expected
To Reduce Infant
Mortality
ny UniverssI Service.

That a great reduction in
the infant mortality rate can
be expected from administrs-
ton Of the Sheppard-Towner
law Is proved by a study Of
conditions In New Zealand, just
completed by the children's bu-
reaN Of the Department Of
Labor.
New Zealand has long had
organized infant welfare work
Of the sort provided for under
the Sheppard-Towner law, with
the result that in 1919 the
death rate of infants less than
year old was only 46> to
every 1000 live births. In
the United States it was 81.
Part of the New Zealand
system is to give trained nurses
an intensive post graduate
course in the care of babies
and then employ them to give
free advice and assistance to
all mothers. Popular educa-
tion in "mothercraft" is also
promoted through pamphlets
and the newspapers. Homes
in which children are boarded,
children's hospitals and the
production and sale Of milk
are all strictly regulated by
the New Zealand government.
