Run Grave Risks

If, before the baby is born,
the mother does not take medi-
cal advice the results may be
fatal.
In a survey of maternal deaths
in 10 States. conducted by the
United States Children's Blu
reau, it was found that of the
women who died, a bare Is per
cent had received prenatal care
which could be called fairly
good-even this care was sell
dom up to the highest stand
ards. Case reports on more
than half the fatalities showed
that no prenatal care of any
kind had been given.
Women who lack proper post
natal treatment do not always
die-at least not Immediately.
But they run the risk of years
of i'll health and suffering.
They allow conditions to be
set up which only a. serious
operation can cure-if indeed
cure be possible. They take the
most preposterous chances with
their future.
Neglect at this critical time
may mean that they never will
be we'll women again. It may
mean that never again can they
bear a child successfully.
Another immensely significant
fact for women to remember
about post-natal care is that it
has to be now-at the time the
doctor sets-or it may be never.
His usual procedure, if there are
no complications, is to order his
patient to remain in bed 10
days after the baby comes. He
does not want her to walk about
until two weeks have elapsed.

Give a Dinner
For Bride
By Mrs. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN

BY Mrs. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
81 met a woman about a year
ago, and since then we have
been very good friends. Quite
Unexpectedly she has made up
her mind to be married again,
and the wedding will take place
in September. She has asked me
to be her attendant. 1 do not
know very well the man she is
to marry.
"Is it proper for me to ar
range a little shower or dinner
for her? l don't know any of
her friends or his friends. What.
if anything, is the proper thing
for me to do?
JOSEPHINE"
Under the circumstances, I
think that it would be a little
difficult for you to plan lily
party for this friend and her
fiance, at least before their
marriage. Obviously it would
be inappropriate for you to give
her a shower, for only brides
close friends are invited to q
shower for her, and you do not
know any of her friends.
You could, of course, give a
dinner for them, and this would
be a very generous gesture for
you to make. But to this din
ner you would invite your
friends to meet" the couple,
not their friends, whom you do
not know.
Giving this dinner would. be
perfectly correct, of course, If
you wish to give it to introduce
these people to your friends.
But what would you think OF
the plan of giving a party for
them after they have returned
from their wedding trip? This
might be a tea party or a Sun.
