It has been truly -aid that "The ehild is father t-o the man,” ainl the world is full of men whose handicap. 1 : V.ad their beginning in childhood and have increased with years. Realiza tion of the fact . that, these defects could have been reemedied easily in childhood h^s brought alrout this campaign, ; Rural districts have Pot had the ad vantage of baby conferences and clin ics, with the opjioriimity to secure the advices of spocially trained physi- ^inns for children, lanause of the lopg distances that tlx* mothers hail to travel to reach such conferences. The Ch'ld Health Truck was decided -upon jts the most feasible plan to reach these districts. Statistics show that from ii.'l to JC. *>ut of every 1,000 children under one year of age die in South Uaroliiui each year. To lower this appalling infant death rate three things are es sential: 1. That the mother he taught the proper care of herself during the pre- In loving ’mm ory o 'my dea taPy. natal period so there will be no com- little James William, who died March plications at tlie time of delivery. ti. That the midwiven be taught tht* proper care of the mother and baby at the time of birth and during the lying in period, so that there may be fewer mothers to die of infection, and fewer babies blind or dead from hick of proper care. o. That mothers be taught how to care for their children as to fe.sling, clothing, regular habits, etc.; and .shown the necessity of taking the child regularly to a physician that he may observe whether the child is de veloping as he should, :,imI advise her as to further filling and treatment.

Mothers are .ysked to bring their «hi!(lrcn (infants. :<ih1 pie-sclvKtl ehiidren) p.ompt'y at the hour of ba g-inning the eoufvence so the nurse may prepare tin. iveA.’-d before the! dor’tor iH'gin.s his ev.muhation. After the history is liken, t!'e child is uu-J dressed, weigh <1 aivd measured and these findings recorded on the history sheet, whieh i< made out in duplicate. The normal 'weight, is also rocurdod. The child is then te.ken to the diH’toi’, who makes the examination, the nurse, who asslsks him, recording his findings on the record and »dso the advice given by him to the. mother, who stands by his sijle during the whole time he is examining the child. One copy of this record is given to the mother, the other remaining with the countv nurse or <*ther person in the .aimmunity. who undertakes to fo.-j low up the children who have been found seriously defective. No corrective work is done by this truck, the idea behind the work l>eing to teach parents the necessity of hav ing their children periodically exam ined, so that they may know whether or not they are developing as they should, and, if not,- to find the defects in time to remedy them before they do irreparable harm to the child. j All cases for correction are referred 27. 1924: We hear the low wind :• weeping Through every bush and tree Where my dear baby is sleeping, Away from home and me.

The Ford will run on mo?t anything that passes for oil, but it will run longer, more quietly, and more cheaply if lubricated with oil made especially lor its engine and transmission.
