Early and continuous prenatal and material care by Q physician and trained nurse should be given serious consideration when prepar- ing for healthy parenthood, Flor ence A. Browne, MD., Public Health Physician, Bureau of Child Hygiene, pointed out today in the weekly broadcast of the State De- partment of Health. The fact that more Connecticut mothers are fol- lowing this procedure is believed one great reason for 50 much improve nnent during recent years in the States maternal and infant rnor- tality rates.
 It is especially appropriate that measures for continued progress in these respects be emphasized at a time when May Day-Child Health Day and Mothers Day are ap- preaching, Doctor Browne said. AL though @ mother and her baby in Connecticut have @ better chance of surviving than almost anywhere in the United States there are still, among some 23000 births each year, approximately 60 deaths of mothers relating to child birth and about 500 deaths of infants during the first month of life.

FOR SATISFACTION
 PATRONIZE HART'S

The management of Harts Clean CTS, well known North Main Street establishment, attribute their long success in the garment cleaning business in this city to the efficiens cy and exactitude of their stafi- dards for garment cleaning.
 Hart's have always found that satisfaction in service has meant satisfied customers, who in turn act as human advertisement of the firms reputation. '
 One of It's prized boasts is the statement that deliveries are made on that day. Excuses and apologies suit, or e gown is promised for a certain day, delivery will be made no thta day. Excuses mad apologies are considered taboo. Satisfied cus- toners testify to that.

Federated Trades Council, and the
Milwaukee Firefighters local in urging

pal ordinance which would reduce the
81 hour work week Of Milwaukee fire
men to 72 hours by giving them an
additional day off every two weeks.

ordinance would not result in in
creased cost to the city.

The Power Of q
Smell Act
BY DIR. CHARLES STELZLE

Sometimes trades union matters Of
only local Importance have taken on
national aspect Of the development
and exploitation by the press Of the
country Of what were primarily trivial
Incidents in connection with the real
question al stake. This has not tend
ed to give people q true impression
Of trades uniOnism. All reformers
make mistakes; as a class they are
not more infaliible than other people.
And it is usually their mistakes that
are at first given the most promin-
ence.
Just so is it with organizations ex-
isting for the benefit and welfare of
the people. They will always be
Judged i'm certain quarters not so much
by the permanent good they accomp-
lish, but By the selishlg aggressive
acts of a few of their members. Acts,
like people, are frequently Judged by
appearances. Each man must inter-
pret the deeds Of another as they ap-
pear to him. And his judgment is
according to his own powers Of per-
ception and his own depth and breadth
Of character
II is we'll worth remembering that
one must not only be good, but one
must appear to be good. One must
not only have high principles, one
must show them in every act, other
wise people will not believe that they
are there.

Fuss Over Strikes
Lobor Only Seeks Shore In
Rising Profits, States
Mrs. Roosevelt

Swarthmore, Pa. GLNS).-"Labor
has probably not impeded production
any more than management impeded
it at the start" Mrs. Franklin D.
Roosevelt declared in lecturing at
Swarthmore College.
Asserting "the labor situation is eX-
aggerated in many peoples minds
Mrs. Roosevelt commented that the
number of man-hours lost on defense
projects this year through strikes was
'one-quarter Of per cent Of the
man-hours worked"
''At the beginning of defense pro-
duction, not a great deal was said on
the part of labor, but a great deal
on the part of management regard
ing risks and guarantees, and there
was a considerable lag before man
agement showed willingness to expand
production" she said.
"1hesc | would call the growing
pains Of management. Now we are
witnessing the growing pains Of la
Dor.
Labor saw the reports OF company
earnings, and, remembering its own
recent periods of joblessness, decided
it was going to share in the legiti-
mate increases in returns to every
one. Some strikes, of course, particu-
larly jurisdictional strikes, never
should have occurred. | feel jurisdic
tional strikes always should be sub
mitted to arbitration"

MARY MOSSER MAUGER

Sally is not yet five. When spring
came last year, she took a sudden in
terest in flowers. Before this she
had liked to smell them and seemed
to admire their bright colors. But
this spring, flowers came alive for
Sally.
She asked endless questions. How
did they grow? Did they eat and sleep
like she did? Had they mother and
daddy?
| did the best | could in answering
the questions. First, | explained that
they lived underground all winter.
1t was warm and cosy there. Then
in the spring, when the sun shone
brightly, they came out to see the
world. Even Sally, | said, did not
come into the garden very much when
the earth and air were cold. | ex-
planned that the leaves mingled with
peat moss, which | was putting on
the flower beds, was their food.
Sally trailed along after me, deeply
interested in all / did. She even tried
to use the rake. And finally one after
noon she announced, "Mommy, me
want a garden too"
laughed "Why, of course" | said.
"Of course you shall have garden"
Secretly | was rather ashamed that
Sally had had to suggest it. When |
was child, we lived with my grand
mother, in tiny apartment in a very
large city. Granny was an amazing
woman. Almost the first thing re-
membered is that, when spring APP
preached, she took us down to the
five and-ten-cent store and bought the
three largest flower pots they had.
Later these were filled with dirt and
perched on our bedroom window sills
and thereafter known as our gardens.
Mine was green. Then each child
was advised to save up five cents with
which to buy seeds. We did this. 1t
took Brother John the longest, | re-
member, but he finally purchased his
seeds, too.
insisted that wanted daisies. And
daisies had, as fine crop as any
youngster ever grew.
Yes, Granny was an amazing
woman. Even in tiny apartment she
understood and satisfied a child's
longing for things that grow.
SO my Sally was given a small plot
of her own. 1t was not in a corner
hidden out of sight, because, even if
it should become a little weedy, |
wanted her to be proud of it. Sally's
garden was about four-foot square
and soon became riot of color. She
had tiny watering can of her own,
a rake and hoe. The flowers did
not arrive exactly at the places she
planted them; but they came up! In
spite of all her digging and poking
with her fingers, they came up.
Sally loved to give her flowers
away, too. She hadn't very many,
but what she had-she gave. And that
is another lesson Of childhood: to give.
Flowers that blossom under our
care bring satisfaction that money
alone cannot buy. They are the re-
ward of patience and devotion. There
is more to a flower than mere color
Sally has learned that.
