Every child brought to the confer ] enCe, is examined by a compet ent physician and if any defects, physi- 1 cally, are found, the mothers are ad- vised 10 have the child cared for and the defects corrected by the family physician.
 ] Each child is booked for the monthly conferences and records are kept of the weight and condition Of each child. The conference is a | health inventory Whcrin the mothers have in" services of experts in child hygiene free of charge and any symptom of sickness, adenoids, or any other defects are detected and the proper steps to correct or elim- . mate them may be taken 10 save worry and care later on. Mothers may not appreciate the value of the health conference in the first few visits but as the child grows along in years and enters school later 10 reach maturity, the | valu" of the early health training can well ho seen. The conferences have been devised so that healthy . women and men may be developed where without them. semi-individu- alS and invalids might result from improper care in infancy.
 The conferences do not attempt to teach mothers how 10 rear their children because only matters per taining 10 health arc dealt with. In no other way can children he kept w'll and strong and through this ! means, illnesses which might occur are avoided before they take root . and do damage.
 IL is expected that several hun- ! dr"ds of children will be examined at the first conference q week from { Friday.
