BY LOUISE lie hAhALAANE
Copyright. 1885. NEA Service IncJ
ONE important point not
generally understood
perhaps is that we who
were caring for the quin-
tuplets had to create an en-
vironment for each infant
as possible like the one she
would have been in if she
had waited until her al
lotted time to be born.
An unborn baby does not neeo

feel the pressure of It's own

Most important of all, its perfect
and normal development IS aoso-
lutely safeguarded from invading
hordes of hostile microbes as long
as the mother keeps herself SOUND
and healthy. But baby born
before its time is as delicate as
the unborn one, yet must meet,
unprepared, the conditions OF lie
in this world
From the first there was be-
tween us nurses an absorbing
race to effect improvement in the
handling of the infants. The
nurse going off duty had always
some new ideas to offer about
making the work around the ba-
bies easier or a plan to render
them more comfortable.
I shall never have better CO.
workers than Yvonne LerouX and
our relief nurse, Pat Mullin, am
sure. A determination quite I'M
disturbed BY outside influences
and difficulties, to carry the babies
through to happy and healthy
babyhood was felt equally by all
of us.
TN the beginning, with the help
Il of our relief nurses, we were
each "a hours on duty, "a hours
acting as assistant nurse and "a
hours off altogether. Later, one
Ct us worked mostly during the
day, the other mostly at night. We
never were much interested in
counting our hours on duty. We
did, however, try to get rest and
occasionally recreation for the
sake of the babies. 1t was vitality
important that they have fresh
nurses with the light touch around
them.
When the Canadian Red Cross
took charge of the nursing Serv-
ice it did everything it could to
make the nurses comfortable,
even to putting up a well-screened
portable bungalow as sleeping
quarters amongst a cluster of trees
on a knoll some distance from
the farm house. Our worst enc
mics we're the mosquitoes.
To take a moment of fresh air
on the porch was violent exercise
and even inside, although we had
screened every window and mend
ed all holes in screen doors, the
house was in most places not
tight enough to prevent the en-
trance of these annoying insects.
The babies we succeeded in
keeping untouched by having not
only their room specially screened,
but also every opening and the

them wages of approximately $50

babies felt the nipple gently
pressed into her mouth she might
take few sucks of the sweet
fluid. But there was still a guam
tity left of the measured meal.
A gentle pressure on the rubber
bulb at the end of the feeder
would force a few drops more
into the baby's mouth, she would
swallow, we would then wait
little so as not to oyerburden the
small stomach, and then press
gently once more. You can imag-
inc how long this procedure, re-
peated with the five babies, took.
And mealtimes came every two
hours during the first month of
the babies lifetime while in be-
tween hours they got five or six
drops of clear boiled water, which
was almost as much of chore to
get down them as the milk.
Day by day, though, we went a
little ahead. They were alive and
they were gaining almost imper-
ceptibly, yet gaining. One by one,
they could be given the privileges
accorded to normal babies. Such
as, for instance, tub bathing.
THEIR first tub water bath
Il what an occasion was that!
And how solemn was our doctor
giving us official permission to put
the two biggest babies into soap
and water.
They were surprised looking
babies, too, who surveyed us from
the gentle embrace of the warm
water. Yvonne hesitated for a
moment, then started to cry,
mostly to reaSSure herself, 1 be-
lieve. Annette, hearing the noise
from her sisters bath tub, no
doubt thought it was the proper
thing to do and also began to cry.
We talked soothingly and paid
their crying no heed, so they soon
subsidized into gentle, rather awk-
ward SplaShing. In a very short
time, bathing had become one of
the pleasures of the day.
Soon after their first Tubing,
Yvonne and Annette were con-
sidered strong and hardy enough
to graduate from incubator to
baSSinette. That was another
landmark. The mother, who was
now quite recovered, took an in
terested part in the preparation
of the little beds.

sides of the cots to keep out

should have the pink blanket,
which yellow, green, lilac or blue.
These colors, by the way, have
been kept throughout. Yvonne'S
color is pink, Annette's yellow, Ce-
Giles green, Emelie's lilac, and
Marie's blue.
When the high, white enameled
bassinettes, with their tiny hair
mattresses, were ready, Yvonne
and Annette we're taken out of the
somber depths of their big incu-
bators and moved into them. They
must have found the change re-
freshing and comfortable, because
they promptly went to sleep, I'M
knowing that they had passed one
important milestone in their first
year of life.
Two or three weeks later the
three small ones also had taken

Rarely had any of us ever before
handled livings babies of such
feather-like proportions Only two,
Yvonne and Annette, tipped the
scales at more than two pounds

more than an ordinary loaf of
bread.

BROTHER, SISTER
 BATTLE ON STREET
Early Morning Quarrel Re- suits in Arrests of Two;
 Sentence Suspended

Sally Kicks. Negro. 27, of 231 Bishop street, started out for church last night, but, according to her brother, Ernest Harrell, 23, of the same address, she couldn't very well have gone there. In fact. Ernest claimed, Sally was q bit too spirited" last night when he and she had a battle.
 Patrolman Leo Buckmiller ar rested the brother and sister at 4:15 o'clock this morning on Bis hop street, charging them with breach of the peace. Sally, at the time, was attempting to seek refuge in a neighbours house and was making bit of noise in the process.
 Apparently thinking that as long as Sally was going to church the trouble couldn't have been so bad, Judge John r. McGrath suspended sentence.
 Charged with assautling Annie Silvia, Abbott avenue Negro, with d shoe last weekend, Sadie Walton, 35, of 210 Bishop street. won q suspended sentence in city court this morning. In the battle Annie received wounds which required seven stitches to close and she had been in St Mary's hospital until yesterday afternoon.
 After testimony, 1t was discov- cred that Annie's hurts had been received when she fell down stairs after Sadie had hit her q few times with the shoe.
 The shoe used, by the way, was Annie's.
