BROKEN BONE
BABY HAS new
LEG FRACTURE
Tiny Girl Appears to Be on
Way to Recovery,
Doctors Say.

Despite a new break in the bone
in her right leg, Caroline Ruby
Mercer, born seven weeks ago with
more than fifty fractures, awoke
from her nap today With broad,
toothless baby smile.
Caroline is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Hansel Mercer, 1245 West
New York street.
Many of the fractures which we're
discovered at the baby's birth al
ready have healed. She sustained
the new break in the bone between
her knee and ankle several days ago.
Physicians attending her believe
the break was the result of efforts
of baby Caroline to move about on
her pillow.
The new fracture was discovered
by the baby's mother Sunday, when
she gave the child a bath. Monday
physicians confirmed Mrs. MERGERS
belief that the leg was broken.
Previous breaks in the child'S legs.
caused before birth by improper
bone formation, were above the
kIIGGS. VI cSNGl al WGChS ollC lay
in a wooden framework, with her
legs suspended by gauze to an up
right structure, while these frac-
lures healed.
Monday the baby was taken to the
physicians Office, where plans had
been made to place her in another
apparatus, to Straighten her legs,
which are drawn up to her body.
Because of the new fracture, this
step was not taken, and the baby is
kept on a pillow with the broken
leg supported by pads.
Caroline is able now to lift her
tiny arms and wave them about, as
a normal child of her age does. I'm
til a few days ago her arms lay
useless beside her. Fractures which
we're present in the bones in the
arms have healed without being set.
Caroline has gained weight in the
seven weeks of her life, and appar-
emily is without pain. She sleeps
much of the time. She will be ex-
amined by the attending physicians
in two weeks, to determine if the
new break in her leg is healing.
