Attracting Sightseers

Five baby carriages on the veranda of the Dafoe hospital on frosty, clear mornings or even on snowy mornings when water tight covers collected downy, white cushions of new-fallen snow, became a common sight to a rather mortified neighborhood. Sometimes women and men, too. passed by just to see five frosted breaths circling out from under meath the carriage tops and to catch distant glimpses of five pink-cheeked babies sleeping con- tentedly. When these same neighbors later f1ocked to see the babies during the short period of visiting hours they almost in- variably asked astonishedly what we had done to make the little girls cheeks so red! The answer !. was easy. We had given them fresh air and sunshine in large doses as prescribed by Dr. Da-
 method. hope some of those
 mothers went home to their pale
 little babies, were struck by the compar1Son With ours ana 10l- lowed the example.
 The result of this wise regimen was amply shown in the babies excellent physical condition and the complete disappearance of rickets and anemia. Even more striking proof that we were us- ing the best medicine was the fact that when a slight head cold epidemic swept the hospital dur ing the winter and we nurses again donned masks to protect our charges, none of the babies took the cold. Later in the spring when they did catch colds, brought in from the outside by visitors, their condition never be- came serious because they were so well fortified and conditioned.

Moving to New Beds

As Christmas neared, the white enamelled bassinettes were be- coming all too small for the ba- bies and we were beginning to wonder what to do about them. Their box-table no longer provid- cd them with enough room for their energetic kicking, either. Luckily, Santa Claus brought new pink cots and playpens as we'll as toys and many other things. So the day after New Year the old beds were discarded and the new big ones put into service. These had high sides that could slide up and down and bars, wonderful things to exer- else on by sticking the feet out through them and banging en them with the whole leg so that the nursery rang with the noise of 1t. It was happy evening when the babies were first tucked into their new beds. This time they were fully aware of the new ness. Yvonne and Annette coyly laid down their heads on the pill low to see what effect the sight of them in the strange big bed would have on us, then looked up and smiled mischievously. The cots were big and little Marie espe- cially looked like lost island in a sea of white sheets and covers.
 In the daytime the babies were new dressed in little dresses, short and convenient, providing ample kicking room for energetic, plump legs. The new play-pens l were put on casters for greater convenience in the nursery. Very easily the little girls learned to sit in their new highchairs for their meals and the commode chairs also soon came to their proper use.
