the State of Maine is SO, placing it
21st among the so states and the Dis
trict of Columbia, comprising the birth
registration area. The area including
5S4 cities of more than 10000 popula-
tion is covered in the report issued by

Washington with rate of 81, Oregon
with 53. Minnesota with 62 and Cali
fornia with Sc, head the list of all the
states within the birth registration
area. The, entire sectional average is
only 81 as compared with IS, the aver
age for all the territory in the area.
Santa Cruz. Cal, and Winchester,
Mass, hold the best infant mortality
record within the area, each having a
record Of 26. Spokane, Wash, with a
rate of 4S stands first among cities of
100000 to 250,000 population, while
New York City and Cleveland, Ohio,
rating 81, head the list Of the 10 larg-
est cities in the United States.
In cities of 100000 or more a COM

Another Vacation School

For. some time the matter of a
Daily Vacation Bible School has
been under discussion by leaders in
the Fairfield Methodist Church. A
week ago the Official Board formally
adopted the idea and made plans
for the financial support of the ven-
ture, and on Tuesday evening of
this week definitely fixed the open
ing date for Monday, July 9TH.
This school will be in session at
the church from 8 a. m. to II m. for
five days of each week 1t continues.
Any boys ar girls are welcome to
the privileges of the school who are
between the ages of 5 and II, while
some who are Older will be present
as helpers.
The church is very fortunate in
securing as leaders for this move
ment teachers of training and ex-
perience which peculiarly fits them
for the work.
AS a vacation enterprise the play
element will be prominent, and at
recreation periods the church lawn
will be given over to volley ball and
other group games adapted to the
ages of those who take part. Spec
ial material will be provided for
handwork. also. and new sand
tables, blackboards. pictures, and
other devices for use in the instruc-
ton periods.
These schools are everywhere
making a strong appeal to parents
because they provide for the care
of the children through long vaca-
tion days under surroundings which
are safe and helpful. while they ap-
peal to the boys and girls themselves
through the recreational features
and the worth while instruction.
