That is only one item in a great program that the will of the Ameri can people should put through. Dr. Bundesen, Health Commissioner of Chicago, says many fathers and mothers “kiss their babies into the grave.” To kiss an infant on the mouth is a cr me. Parents stupid enough to allow strangers to kiss their children almost deserve the result. An infant’s blood lacks the protec tive strength, the disease fighting leucocytes, that come later in life. For that reason consumption nearly al ways starts before the child is two yeaft old. Millions of unfortunate children have had the tubercular £$FnTpIanted in their mouths by lov ing but ignorant mothers. Kiss your baby on top of its head. Let no one else kiss or haalle it.
