and Fashion ShoN Miss Sarah Place and a styl shoiv ere the highliglits ini th meeting of the Wilmettc cente cf the Infant Welfare Society co Chicago Monday, March 19, il the lounge of the Womýan s 'slut After a. short 'business meetini thepresident, Mrs. Conirad Fr.ykmia introduced Miss Place, superintend ent of the Chicago Infant Welfari association, who reviewedý some o the- facts concerning Infant Welfari and stressed the points pertaining t( the Alice H. Wood station at 196 North Halsted street, of which tht Wilmette cçnter is sponsor. MissPlce rought to mnd that th e Infant Welfare association Was an outgrowth of the "Old Chicago Milk Associatio)n,"ý which. furnishel rnodified milk during ,thie suzi»er months to the less fortunate. The facts became apparent that milk alone would flot combat the deficiencies, and the association was formed for helping the mothers to understand and practice health habits, Statistics kept, show now that 25.2 per cent of babies registered are under 1 nionth of age, which means a better chance to teach habits conducive to best hiealth and keeping the baby well. This association lbegan with em- phasis on saving infant life but sav- ing for what? Other than pliysical problems arise, and in order to cre- ate better family life, now ,the. men- tal eupervisor looks into behavior problemns of the famiiy. Average at- tendance at the Alice H. Wood sta- tion is 64. Registered at the station are 757. 0f these 94 are pre-natal, cases., The work the members of this, chapter,'are doing lis for making the Alice H. Wood station most effi- cient. Mor.e and, more the entire; family is drawn into the picture which this association hopes to make more beautiful. -A style show bi a- junior mnisses' Thze annual spring inart of the, Woiiadts Club of Wilinet te is in session toda -v and toniorrow.
