Some time ago a mother brought her year-old child to one of the Well Child Conferences. She knew al ready that her child was not nor nal since it had not walked nor ta- lked as yet, and the teeth were not erupting normally The mother was persuaded Go go to the local confer ence and there, after Che thorough physician. she was told that the child's condition could be greatly as sisted by medical treatment She accordingly was referred to her fam fly physician who advised her to take en to a specialist Since the child has been placed under special treat ment. it has greatly improved and is now running about and talking. Both the mother and the family phy sician are delighted at the way n which the child Is responding to tre- atment The Well Child Conference has now no more ardent boosters in that town than the mother of the child. We'll Child Conferences are not for Children who are sick. Many
 supposedly well children upon exa- imitation are found to have defects or wrong tendencies that need cor rection and advice One af the chief benefits of these conferences is the education of the mother toward hy eienic care and proper feeding of her children
