those foods the doctor has ad- vised and do the other countless "little things" that all play such an important part in assuring quicker and more uneyentfui recov- cry. After all it is not the acute disease in children which many times is dangerous as far as life is concerned but the complications which may follow such an old fashioned common disease as T .easles and leave the child crip- ped for life.
 In the past month the people of Waterbury have donated $2,500 for the Baby Welfare fund. This fund of money is used to maintain the seven so-called Baby Welfare sta- tions. These stations are meeting places where mothers may bring their babies and cpreschool children to be weighed, discuss their prob lems of child care with the nurse and, if they cannot afford the serv- ices of a private physician the doc- tor at the stations gives the baby a complete physical examination and he advises the mother in methods of infant care, including plans for feeding the baby. All of this super vision, available at the stations is for well babies only. When the baby is sick he must be seen by the fam fly doctor O. go to a clinic. This procedure safeguards the health of the babies who come to the stations and the mother feels no concern about exposing her own baby to the others who may be ill.
 During 1886. 35: of these well baby conferences; were held and 4.048 wis., i were made by Waterbury babies and children.
 This is one service which the wis., iting Nurses association is concen- trating on 50 that the future citi- zens of Waterbury will grow up to ! strong and well.
 Four doctors supervise the work at the Baby Welfare stations, and they are: Dr. Joseph Hetzel, Dr. Louis Backhus, Dr. A. s. Brown and Dr. Bernard Berman. The stations are located as follows: Bronson Branch Library, Bank street; Rose Hill branch of the Bronson Library, Baldwin street; Christ chapel. East Main street; South Federated church, Baldwin and Piedmont streets; Community house, Sacred Heart church hall, Taylor street; North End Y. M. O. A. branch, East Farms street: and Sprague school, Waterville.

FIRST AID HINTS
 FOR YOUR BABY
Simple Remedies in Emer= gencies Every Household
 Should Know

First aid for minor and some times serious mishaps to infants has long been question of importance to all. The slogan found in the Boy Scout manual, "Be calm,-keep cool, --think,-see what is wrong" is about the best advice. Knowledge of what to do until the doctor comes is always valuable. Eere are some suggestions in specific instances: <
 BURNS-To ease the suffering re- sulting from burns apply a solution of baking soda and cold water or white of eggs combined with sweet or olive oil. Protect the injury from the air with absorbent cotton Any oily substanGe, is good. Lard is preferable to butter because of the salt in butter.
 CUTS-For ordinary cuts cleanse with solution of alcohol or per- oxide of hydrogen; swab with tinc- ture of iodine applied with pledget of absorbent cotton wound around toothpick or match. Bind with sterlized linen or cotton cloth. Never use cotton batting on cut.
 When small child suddenly chokes turn him upside down, holding him by the heels and have someone slap him on the back. Never slap on the back when he is in an upright position. Tick ling the throat with feather will sometimes make a child cough and dislodge the object which is ob- structing the breathing. If after these measures the child continues to choke and becomes blue get him to the physician as quickly as pos Sible.
 HICCOUGH-Hiccoughs are ex- tremely exhausting to any person and especially to baby or small child. As soon as they occur an ef- fort should be made to stop them. A simple and effective treatment IS to give a small quantity of cool water. If the hiccoughs still con- tinue a half teaspoonful of vinegar will usually end them.
 NOSE-BLEED-Nose bleed can be stopped in many cases by extend- ing the arm, on the side where the bleeding occurs, above the head. Cold water applied to the bridge of the nose and ice or cold piece cf metal to the spine are also effec- tive. When these simple methods fail to stop the flow of blood, resort to an ametic or ipecac.

Visiting Nurses Cared For @2,8 ,877 Babies
Caution, Care Needed
 In Tubercular Cases
Children in Families Where Disease Is Found Sub-
 mitted to Tuberculin, X-Ray Tests

a long time in order to prevent any possible start of the disease. Some of the 66 cases, including some of those who had also taken the tu- berculin test, also were x-rayed and it was found that there were p positive cases. These cases showed also that the germ was inactive and that the children were actually ur1- dergoing a healing process. Out of the number who took the x-ray tests there were 30 listed as negative.
 Tn discussing the preventative measures taken by the local depart- ment office, Miss Murphy said that all children whose parents had been treated for tuberculosis at any time are subject to examination at the earliest possible date. She pointed out that in most cases the children are healthy but being in constant contact with persons who have it, they are more likely to contract the condition than ordinary children.
 Proof of this fact is found in the VCAA VeoCo AAOH HI odAAdUOAAulAAo Oue of this number, five fathers had the disease and four mothers. One child had apparently been exposed to con- tact with an uncle who had been treated for it.
 Another omportant item in regard to tuberculosis in the child was out. lined at the local office as follows:
 ''The second reason for examining a child with the tuberculin test and the x-ray is that there is always the possibility that the childhood type may develop into the adult type of tuberculosis when the youth be- gins to take on the responsibilities of adulthood. Much can be done to strengthen a child's resistance so that he will not develop serious dis ease. A periodic check-up on this health will help, to safeguard him against the tragedy of learning some day that he has 8 lung disease al- ready well established even before symptoms appear. A danger that can be foreseen can usually be av- oided."

STREET SAFETY MUST BE TAUGHT
Accident Tolls Emphasizes Need of Teaching Care
 in BabyhOod

The appalling accident tolls of re- cent years make it incumbent on every parent to impress strongly on the minds of their children from very babyhood that extreme care is needed in these days of huge in creases in accidents of all kinds. Not only should the child be taught to be careful in crossing streets and warned against playing on streets but he must also be taught to be on guard against mishap while at home or at play. In ls36, deaths and in- juries from accidents in the home reached staggeringly high totals.
 From infancy the youngster should be taught that steps should be ascended and descended careful ly, that climbing on window-sills and lodges brings danger of a seri- ous fall, that ladders should be tested before they are climbed. and that it is always better to take suf- 'ficient care and be safe than to be careless and suffer serious injury. The child should be taught to re-

Caution and care are the watch words at the local office of the Waterbury Anti-tuberculosis league in regard to babies and younger children whose parents or near rela- tives have had the disease. Tuber- culosis is not hereditary, but those in charge of the local office, Miss Anne L. Murphy and Mrs. George Jackson, take care to see that all such children are submitted to tu- berculin and x-ray tests at a very early age and that. reports be made on the cases for long period of time.
 Figures released at the office show that. at the present time there are 66 cases of. children from ? to 12 years who are under observation. In addition to that there are ten local children, under the age of nine years, who are at sanatoriums.
 Of the 66 cases under observation. 40 took the tuberculin test and were listed as positive. There were Il ne- gativc cases. These negative cases. however, will be checked up on for

 The Visiting Nurse association last year had under its care 2,877 children. Many of these children were actually babies under two years of age. You will be interested to learn that 868 of them were new born babies who have had the at- tention of the visiting nurse from the time they were born until they had reached their second birthday.
 At all times this organization trys help mothers to keep these ht- tie tots well. In other words, one O. the big jobs the Waterbury Wis., i'i,lg Nurses association is trying to do is to keep the well child well. This is ideal and of course some of our children in spite of the best care known; become i'll. There are Il of the children's diseases which parents so often accept as inevit- able, measles, humps, chicken-pox, etc, which the child may succumb to, in this event the visiting nurse is ready, not only to give the bed- side nursing care under the doc to s direction, but to help the mother understand what is neces- sary for her sick child, how to give nursing care, that is, make the bed without disturbing the patient too much, how to give medicine in such a.. attractive way that the child won't fuss and cry and get himself into a tantrum, how to prepare at- tractive meals for him including only

ADENoIDs

A baby suffering from adenoids sleeps with mouth open, snuffles, cannot breathe freely, and there-. fore cannot nurse properly All babies who show any signs of trou. ble of this kind should be cxam- ined by 8 good physician, as ;ater the same cause may lead to deaf- ness and other defects which seri- ously hinder the child's growth both of body and mind.

port any wound or injury, however sl;ght,to his parents at once so that it can be treated properly. For the neglected cut or spraiI1 often re- suits in something much more grave.
 From the first day that he is all lowed to leave the house by him. self, the child should know that he should cross streets only at cross walks and then only after looking in both directions. He should know that traffic lights and policemen's signals should be observed. And he should be taught that playing in the street may cost him his life.
 Traffic safety education is given students regularly In the local pub lie and parochial schools, And there has been a decline in accidents in- volying juveniles since this course was established. Yet every week there are several accidents that could have been avoided, had boys and girls been careful.
 Every school in the city has traf- fic direction of some kind whenever pupils are entering or leaving the building. Policemen are on duty at most of the schools, while at others there are student patrols, made up of older boys.
 The child who has been taught thoroughly the lessons of safety will be valuable citizens in the community. For he in turn can teach others and help make the city completely safety conscious. For it is only with safety consciousness on the part of all that accident tolls will be reduced and human lives saved.

some members of the committee
felt this to be outside the agree
ment under which the procedural

approval of the judicial bill with

Borah predicted that congress

Meanwhile the senate and house
outlook for the week contains

gin consideration of 100000, 900

that the wage-hour bill, a tax

eral farm bill and the housing bill
be enacted at this session.

to show for our six months of

fact that virtually no major legis-
lation has been enacted.
The greatest obstacles in the
way of wage-hour regulation and
a farm bill are the likelihood of
disagreement between senate and
house over method. If a dispute
arose that promised to involve
lengthy discussion, both measures
might be dropped.
