Departments Here 10 Confer With
Mothers of Clinic Babies.

"A Washington dispatch Monday
told the story that Idaho has the
lowest death rate OF any state In the
union. but IL did not disclose the
fact that Idaho has the largest death
rate for mothers OF any of the as
commonwealth" said Miss w. A.

ing under the supervision Of the

OF public health who was here this
week. on follow-up visit In con-
nection with the baby health clinic
held at the county fair here this fall.
Sc points out some interesting frcts
In regard 10 the health situation in
Idaho.
Asked why Idaho had this high
death rate for mothers she replied
that II was due In a great measure
TO the dearth OF doctors Ia many OF
the towns, especially in the central
and northern parts OF the state: the
dependence OF numerous people on
other than competent physicians for
care; and superstitious beliefs. N
not Ignorance on the part OF iesi-
dents.
The work which Miss Robinson re-
presents Is made possible by the
Sterling-Towner child welfare act.
and this state is being carried for
ward by Or. r. A, Almond. The
services OF this department are avail
able 20 all the residents OF Idaho in
need or care. The bureau does not
attempt 10 take the places OF the
family physician. but rather seeks
10 aid him." said the visitor.
Miss Robinson met Infants and
mothers OF the county during the
past week who participated In the
baby health clinic at the county fair.
