during past years certainly merits
its continuance and I am glad to
know that the youth of the District
of Columbia and nearby Maryland
and Virginia will again have this
splendid opportunity of learning the
fundamentals Of swimming. The
action of the Y. M. c. A. in giving
scientific instruction in the health
full and invigorating recreation of
swimming is commendable as 1t
serves to introduce youth to safe
enjoyment OF a wholesome body
building sport which will be bene-
fetal to them all during their lives.
THE annual Learn-to- Swim Cam
paign goes further, believe, than
merely teaching boys and young
men how to swim, for the associa-
tons which they have, under the
auspices of the Y. M. C. A., in a
clean, wholesome atmosphere and
under trained leadership cannot but
help to contribute to the develop
ment of character"

Bund.
"That Fritz Kuhn, fuehrer Of the

Mothers, Babies Meeting
Very Largely Attended

Raleigh, Feb. -Seventy-four
North Carolina counties, seven states
and the District of Columbia were
represented here in the first in the
United States of a series of statewide
conferences on better care for moth
ers and babies, sponsored by the
National Council for Mothers and
Babies, in cooperation with the North
Carolina State Board of Health.
Sessions, which began in the morn
ing continued throughout the day.
with addresses by group of distin-
guished speakers from out of the
State and discussions by numerous
North Carolinians interested in this
work. The presiding officer was DR..
Albert S. Root, Of Raleigh, chairman
of the North Carolina Section Of the
American Academy Of Pediatrics,
and the visitors were welcomed to
Raleigh by Governor Clyde r. Hoey
and DR.. Carl V. Reynolds, State
health officer.
Governor HOey expressed his APP
prevail Of the detectives of the con-
ference and stated he thought it a
distinct compliment to North Car
Dina that the National Council for
Mothers and Babies should have
chosen this State in which to launch
such an important national move
ment. 1t was fitting that this should
be the case, however, the Governor
said, due to the fact that there are
SO many children in North Carolina
He expressed the hope that, as the
result of the deliberations of the con-
devised to save many mothers and
babies. N}
The purposes of the conference
were outlined by DR.. C. M. Cooper,
who is in charge Of the maternal and
child health services for the State
Board Of Health and who was large
ly instrumental in making arrange
ments for the conference. He de-
clared that for forty years public
health workers in North Carolina had
been conscious of the needless Sacri-
