A map showing the quota of babies which each Ohio county is expected to save during the Children's year is one of the ways in which Dr. Hol- lingshead, chairman of the child wel fare department, is encouraging the different sections of this state to save Ohio's quota of 4,510 babies. Dr. Hol lingshead made a survey in January of . the milk situation in 28 counties and found milk selling anywhere from 5 to 25 cents a quart. The death rate was higher in rural districts than in the city. In one small town drug gists were found to be selling $3,500 to $5,000. worth of proprietary foods in the course of the year. Motto Is "The Very Best." The chairman of the Indiana child welfare department in a letter to her 'subcommittee chairmen says, "Some , counties still have no board of chil ' dren's guardians. Without this no county can be assured of child wel fare. Many schools do not have medi cal inspection. Health laws have a feeble and lax enforcement in many communities. "This department is organized to meet needs and overcome defects. Not 'orettv erood' or 'verv good' is our motto, but 'the very best.' We are expected to aid and supplement all ex isting agencies for child welfare, but none of them can do our part, for if .1. tf.t J A. 1 1 J I incy couia mis department wouiu uui have been created.

PATRIOTIC American women are daily demonstrating neto ways to help he work of the Red Cross and other relief societies. Every day there is chronicled a differentme dium that will help to fill the coffers for humanitarian work in the great world war. Mrs. E. R. Thomas, who has been at Palm Beach for the last two months, is one of the prominent wo men in society who has evolved a new way of doing "her bit." An artist of note, Mrs. Thomas has been drawing the "kiddies" of society as they play on the beach at the southern resort and the proud parents have been de lighted to buy the pictures, and Mrs. Thomas has turned her talent into money which has been donated to the Red Cross, for which she has been an ardent worker. Among her baby models have been the children of Mrs. Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt, George and Alfred; Henry Barbey, the wee son of Mr. and Mrs. Pierre Lorillard Barbey, and the chil dren of Mrs. Quincy Adams Shaw, 3d, and Mrs. Christopher D. Smithers. Before her marriage Mrs. Thomas was Miss Elizabeth R. Finley, an artist of marked ability, who has ex hibited at the Paris sajon and has had paintings accepted for the Royal 'Academy of England. For her own amusement Mrs. Thomas made a series of sketches of her young son and the sketches were so admired by her friends that she was begged to make pictures of other babies and the result is that Mrs. Thomas has been able not only to give some admirable pictures to her friends, but has turned over to the Red Cross a splendid sum as the result of her talent.

"It Is truly remarkable," says one old cltlzon to another, "how the world has changed In our time. Why, when you ana I were young there was scarcely any length to which the public would not go, or per mit things to go, In the drama, literature, dancing and the like. How do you explain the difference In conditions now, compared with 1114 ?" "Well, you never got married. 10 you can't understand," explains the other old timer. "But we folks who did get married and began to bring up families concluded that we weren't going to allow things to be as nasty for our children as our par ents had allowed them to be for us."
