He Deserted
3 Children

MANILA, P. l., Dec. 26
G.N.S0 Lorenzo Lavides,
native Of Sampaloc, Tayabas,
recently had to answer the
kind of q question the late
Thomas Edison delighted in
asking high school graduates.
When a rising flood endan.
gered their home, Lavides, his
mother, wife and three chill
dren, took refuge in a huge
mango tree.
The flood continued to rise
until finally the mango tree
was uprooted, and it started
down the river toward the
open sea.
Lavides could swim to safety.
He could also take one of the
others with him. At the last
moment he grabbed his wife
and deserted the others.
He Is unable to explain how
he made the choice.

Before Baby's Birth

A considerable number of the
deaths of women during pregnancy
labor, or following childbirth in
Ohio could be prevented if prospec-
tive mothers would avail themselves
of competent medical care during
pregnancy, according to bulletin
issued by the state department of
health.
The study reveals that during
the past 20 years, 1865 women
died as a result of their preg-
nancies. The average annual death
rate from puerperal causes for the
period was 1899 per 100000 pop
ulation. ranging from high rate
of 1920 in 1918 to a low of 8.04
in 1888. 1t was pointed out that
morbidity (illness or disability re-
sulting from pregnancy cannot be
measured collectively, but that 1t
has been conservatively estimated
that for every woman who dies as
result of pregnancy at least Is 9TH
ers suffer physical impairments that
result in partial disability or in
validism, as result of insufficient
prenatal care or proper facilities
at birth. In emphasizing the fact
that prompt and adequate prenatal
care is one of the biggest factors in
the prevention of mortality and
morbidity in pregnancy, the bull
letin called attention to the warn
ing and advice voiced recently by
the committee on preventive medi
cine of the Ohio State Medical as
sociation that:
''Too frequently the natural proc
ess of birth becomes complicated
because the expectant mother neg
lects to assure herself of a happy
outcome. A properly conducted
pregnancy and birth leads to a for
tunate birth. with we'll mother
and sound baby Every pregnant
woman should share this burden
with her doctor by the closest CO.
operation and contact. Every pros
pective mother should guard her
own health and that of her baby"
The statement was released by
Rachel STROBE, r. N, health nurse
of Morgan county, who concurred in
the advice offered and in the fol-
lowing recommendations made in
the bulletin to prospective mothers
as to how they can cooperate with
their physicians in caring for them
and aid in minimizing the chances
of pregnancy difficulties.
go to your physician as soon as
you suspect that a pregnancy has
occurred, in order that he may
make a thorough physical examina-
tion. take pelvic measurements, lin

and estimate the blood pressure.
