SCHOOL CENTERS FOR BABY WEIGHING Campaign for Wellare of Children | Opens Tomorrow Morning Th committec af Child’s welfare campaign to be carried on in this city beginning tomorrow i morning, under the local woman committee of the State Council of De- held its tinal meeting last eve- ning in chamber of commerce rooms. There was a good attendance. The meeting was presided over by the chairman, Mys. George W. Traut. Plans for the campaign were cussed and perfected that the work is started tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock everything will be in read- ht schools of the city are to as where the babies to be weighed and schools decided upon hizh school, gram- street sehool, Smal- Elihu Burritt school, Bart- Lincoln street school and school. The hours during the actual work of the cam- paign will be carried on are, morn- ings, from 9 to 12 o'clock. and after- naons, from 1:30 to 5 o’clock. The Bartlett school will be open on Sunday afternoon. The campaign is scheduled to last for one week instead of ten days as was previously given out, and will close on Tuesday evening, July 30, It is very necessary that all moth- ers bring their babies to the school assigned them and not to the school in their school district. Tn each school building there will be three availabie rooms for during the campaign. One room is to be used by the exam- ining physician or nurse and the baby, while the ather two will be devoted to waiting mothers and their babies, The committee wishes to impress upon the mothers who have been as- signed any special time, to make an effort be there, as the captains have a record of the time each baby to be brought in, and prompt at- tendance on the part of the mothers will insure quick work. The nurses and doctors, all of whom are ver busy, have volunteered the hours they are giving to this work, without compensation, and it will assit them greatly if the mothers of the com- munity co-operate with them and aid in performing the work quickly. At last night’s meeting, the com- mittee extended a vote of thanks to all doctors and nurses who have so kindly volunteered. It has been dif- ficult to see all of the doctors as some of them on their vacations. A large number has left the city, some the vice, while several have passed away during the past year. Those available have been most gen- erous in giving part of their time, while it is remarkable the manner in which nurses have responded. Each school will have a trained nurse in attendance. She will have an assistant, and a clerk wiil be on duty to take down the figures. The ceptral office will be Miss Ella Fallon’s office at the Grammar school. The ’phone call is 1309. The captains report that the en- rollment will be completed hy to- night. Tt was thought at first that it would be hardly possible to have all the babies enrolled before Wednes- day, but good management on the part of those in charge has helped much towards hastening this work. The captains and assistants to nurses met in the Chamber of Com- merce rooms vesterday afternoon, when they received their final instruc- tions from Mrs. Kitson, a graduate nurse, who demonstrated the manner in which the babies are to be weighed and measured. She also gave a clear outlne of justwhat each one is expect- ed to do so that the work may go on unhindered, when it is once started. Miss Fallon also gave final struc- tions. A g deal of enthusiasm is shown by the workers and evervthing points to a very successful campaign The committee urges that mothers of healthy children feel the importance of having their children examined at this time. The government is very anxious to know the health standard of its babies and be able to tell just what percentage is normal, or abnor- mal.
