 Child Health Day, May

had physical examination within the past six months.
 Officials in charge of the Baby Welfare fund wish to emphasize the importance of tho toxoid as q diphtheria preventative, at this time, especially appropriate in view of the approaching national child health week which begins May 1 and will have nationwide atten- ton.
 Health Department Approves
 For the past five years the city board of health, in common with those of much larger cities, has carried on this campaign, with the gratifying result that diphtheria cases here have been greatly de- creased. It Is felt that 1t is iin- possible to place too much em- phasis on the necessity for having every baby subjected to the treat mcnt--an absolute preventative of the disease.
 Seven baby welfare stations are located at strategic points throughout the city, and have proved themselves invaluable ad- ditions to community service. Re- duction of the infant mortality rate since their introduction in Water bury has been steadily lowered.
 Only Needy should Apply
 Although anyone may come to the stations, those who need med ical attention should not expect to be taken care of unless they are actually unable to pay for the ser vices of their regular family phyi-- elan. This regulation is enforced in fairness to the physicians who devote their time and attention to the clinics with no rccompense.
 Complete details of the May day program will bc announced later. The Mothers day program. which

Neighborhood Stores
 Favored In Drug Code
Price.Cdtng Riding Effective Monday n Little Fel-
 low" Gets in MIRA Negotiations

Price cutting will be practically barred for local drug stores after Monday. when the floss llmita- tions. provisions of the retail drug Rists' code go into effect.
 The new order will be of great assistance to small drug stores Of the 'neighborhood' type, as t will enable them to compete more with the larger houses which can aff0rd to make sales at lower prices. No goods can be sold below the cost of production after the order goes into effect, which will mean the end of the practice of offering two or three Header bargains in a sale to attract cus- toners.
 Fair Practice Assured
 Tn the original code 1t was thought that tho loss limitations provisions were strict enough but developments since 1t was made effective have made 1t apparent that more stringency was needed if the drug store business, in gem eral, was to advance. The new regulationss according to MRA ofh- cials at Washington, will make price-keeping Q matter of fair practice.
 The success of the stringent price regulations will be watched closely by Washington. as it Is a major test of the NRA's determin- ation to prevent sales below cost. Strict enforcement of the new regulations is promised.
 Johnson's Ruling
 Tn making the price ruling. Gen. Hugh s. Johnson ruled az follows:
 iinasmuch as the vast prepon- derance of the drug store products are distributed through small re- tail dealers who are unable to pur- chase on a quantity basis but who perform services which are essen- tial to the welfare of those in their communities, and whereas such services cannot be performed through the facilities provided by their competitors, and whereas, in some cases sales are made to con yumers by such competitors al prices below the lowest cost oi purchase normally obtainable for such merchandise by small drug retailers, and whereas, in most ir- stances such sale prices are not 2 true indication of the general lev ei of such competitors and nc general benefit to the people in the Community accompanies the same but such prices are in the nature of bait offers of merchandise to at tract trade, 1t is hereby declared an unfair trade practice and is prohibited by this code for any drug retailer to sell any drugs medicines, cosmetics. toilet prepa- rations, or drug sundries at Q price below the manufacturers wholesale list price per dozen. pro, yided, however, that in the case oi biologicals or other of the above mentioned products which are not customarily sold in dozen or great CT lots the code authority may fix a comparable unit quantity, and provide further than any discount free deal or rebate which is made available to all purchasers of dozen lots of comparable quantities. shal be considered as a part Of the manufa cturer's wholesale price list"

 or the church has learned these Iegsonsl How careless we are iD society, of the lowly. the poor. and tho needy, tho down-tr0dden. ana, the oppressedl
 And yet the sium has in it the power to destroy the city. 1t is from lost and neglected areas of our city life that there come the bandits and the thugs, who war against society, who kidnap those from higher classes. who rob and raid banks, and who give to all of society insecurity.
 Would 1t not be better If we took the way of Jesus and paid more att tention to the lost and the neglect cd? Even in the church how little we have learned the lesson! If is a great thing to nurture the young and keep them in the fold Of the church so that none may go astray. but we lack the quality of a good shepherd if. when the young go astray, we can disregard their wan dering.
 The attitude of Jesus toward the children was more fully and beautifully emphasized In his treatment of them, when his disciples rebuked the mothers who had brought their little ones that Jesus might bless them.
 Jesus had witnessed the concern and fussiness with which the dis ciples were sending the mothers away, and he interposed with the gracious words that Christianity has written 80 beautifully as an ideal for all the world, Suffer the little children to come unto me and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of heaven"
 The power and strength of the church, the power and strength of the nation are determined by the attitude toward little children. No institution can be great that des- pises the life of those upon whom it's future depends.

BY wM. F. GILRoY, D.D. Editor of Advance


 Editor of Advance
 Jesus is unique among world teachers in the simplicity with which he expressed and Illustrated the deepest things.
 When the disciples came to him asking, "Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven" Jesus perceived their false perception of the Kingdom and their wrong ro- tons of greatness. He found it necessary to teach them the lesson of humility, and he did 1t in very concrete way.
 Calling a little child to him, he set this child in their midst and said, Except ye be converted and become as little children, yc shall not enter into the Kingdom of
 How puzzled the disciples must have been, and how their minds and consciences must have been aroused as Jesus added that the greatest in the kingdom of heaven was the one who should humble himself like a little child! To illus trate the nature of this humility Jesus linked t with iowly service.
 The achievement of mans life, his greatness, and the measure of his success are not determined by the approval that he wins from the great, but by the spirit in which he serves those who need his help. To do something for little child is to do something so tragic that 1t were better that one had been cast into the depths of the sea with . millstone around his neck.
 It was in the same spirit that Jesus spoke of the spirit of his religion. the gospel of Gods grace surrounding men and seeking to bring them back when they had gone astray. Here he used the figure of the shepherd with the hundred sheep concerned more about the one

"Upreality," will be the subject of the son-sermon.
 The golden text is taken from Proverbs 12:5: "The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counscls of the wicked are deceit" Bible readings include the fol- lowing passages from Isaiah 4i: 10. 13: Fear thou not: for am with thee: be not dismayed: for am thy God: will strengthen thee; yea. will help thee: yea. ] will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness :. For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand. saying unto thee, Fear not: will help thee"
