Why not have a baby clinic in
Wheel -rani Fall Fair this year? Why
not take the babies into a heated tent
and have our local doctors and nurses
examine the babies and judge them
by standdd weight and measurement
of normal babies and find what really
normal babies are in our community.
Let us try to make this most import-
ant phase of our Fall Fair a marked
success, so that other towns will fall
in line and advocate free medical baby
clinics.
