Mothers who remark that girls to- day are more prone to anaemia than the girls of a generation ago, should look back at the surroundings in Which they and their eontpaniolls lived. They would easily see the rea- son in life's altered .circumstances to- day. Now the school -girl's life is more strenuous; her more numerous stn - dies are a severe tax upon her strength. Also. girls enter business soon after leaving school --fat an age when they most need rest and out- door life.

W. HEALTH EDUCATION BY DR. J. J. MIDDLETON To bring about a decrease in infant anortaiity is one of tale -most pressing. problems of the Hour. During the great mbar tate countries engaged suf- fered tremendously not only material-` ly and financially, but also by a de- crease in birth-rate through the ab- sence of such large numbers of po- tential fathers, and the high rate of infant mortality. Now that we as nations are trying to readjust ourselves to" peaceful pur- suits, one of the fundamental under- takings that confronts us is the wel- fare of the coining generation. The ravages of war, with tho accompany- ing scarcity of food and shortage of houses for the people have reaped their harvest of death, and the nations I are depleted of man -power. Hoa then can we set about to remedy this un- natural condition? Obviously by safe- guarding the life of the newly -born, and helping Mothers to bring their children through the First year of life —the most critical a xl cal stago of their. whole existence, A few figures will help to show what great need there is for some con- certed, organized effort to reduce the appalling death -rate of infants. Dur- ing the year 1918, in Ontario, 6,402 babies under one year of age died. Think -what this means. Imagine the sorrow it has brought to every home where the little life flickered out. But the most distressing point about the whole tragedy is that alarge number of these babies died because their mothers did not know how to take care of them. Sometimes it was a heredi- tary weakness that caused death, the infant being brought into the world handicapped by some disease or de- formity, directly resulting from the sins of the father or mother. In many eases, however, the child is born quite healthy, and if given a reasonable chance will grow up a healthy man or woman; but in the critical months after its birth, when attacked by so many little ailments that efficient medical and nursing treatment can successfully Overcome, the mother dues not know what to do,. and not realiz- ing the seriousness of the baby's con- dition, neglects calling in a doctor until too late. As regards infant feeding, much educationa1Nwork is needed. There is a tendency nowadays among certain classes of mothers to feed their chil- dren on the bottle, axistead.•of nursing them. The principal excuse for this is that nursing ties them down, inter- feres with their social functions, and In general makes them slaves to their { He Sleeps in France. `t i children. On the other hand, I have' actually heard women say that bottle- fed babies are healthiest, because the mother can adjust the strength of the bottled milk she used to suit the child, while oftentimes thee another herself is not strong and therefore physically unfit to supply enough nourishing milk to enable the baby to live and thrive, This latter argument may hold good in certain cases, but they are the ex- ception, Feeding the child at the mother's beast is nature's own way, and that it is the safest way is shown by the fact that ten bottle-fed babies die to one fed on the breast. Mother's milk contains tbe proper elements of food in the right proportion for the grow- ing child. It does not always have to be prepared or measured; it is always ready, and is never sour. Breast-fed babies seldom have bowel trouble, which is so fatalin bottle-fed babies, especially during hot weather. In- sufficient or improper feeding of in- fants is prevalent and leads to dire results, an example of this being fur- nished only a few daysago by 'the, Medical Officer of Health of a large city in Ontario who found that thirty per cent. of the children of that city arriving at school age were under- developed through insufficient and im- proper feeding during the first two years of life. What is the remedy for this state of affairs? It must be to educate mothers as to the best and most scien- tific methods of ehild 'welfare, and it is along these lines that the Division of National and Child Welfare in the Provincial Board of Health is 'working to -day. Efforts are being made to get closely in touch with the people, not from a legislative standpoint, but merely from a co-operative standpoint.. The first step in this scheme of child welfare is to bring about close asso- ciation between -the mother and the public health nurse, without which no satisfactory working arranggement can be effected. It is more and more be- ing realized that the state should share the responsibilty with the parent in successfully bringing up children, and so develop a strong and healthy Tate, the nation's best aseet. This will necessitate h Systematic Home Visitation by the nurse, a School for Mothers, and an Infant -Consulta- tion, coupled with a echeme providing healthy surroundings, facilities for proper feeding, fresh air 'and' other general measures conducive to good health among young and old.

These were extremely useful, inasmuch as, in timing night attacks and on many other occasions, it was necessary for 'officers to look, at their watches, and to light a match would have been dangerous. Radium was used also to illuminate gunsights, thus rendering marksman- ship at night much more accurate..". Unfortunately, since the end of the war something like 95 per cent. of our entire output of this most precious of. substances has' been used for luminous paint. It is a senseless squandering of what may be irreplaceable, for tele sources of radiumare few. Considering the proved usefulness of radium in the treatment of cancer, this reckless waste is little short of criminal—especially in view of the fact that, for the making of luminous paint "mesothorium" would serve equally well. This is a by-product of the manufacture of thorium, which is derived from monazite sand. Not only has the world's stock of radium failed to increase of late, but it is believed to be actually less by one-half than it was a fret years ago, There is one telephone to each eight inhabitants of the United States. it rather an oblong square.
