It means that the Red Cross nurse simp ly pays a visit and gives the pntiem‘ such attention which will add to their relief and comfort and then seeks oth er places where her ministrations are required in the same capacity. The rule furthermore requires that for each visit a nominal fee is to be of fered, which averages the country ov er about 50 cents, when the patient can afford it. This money is placed into the local treasury for future use, Infant welfare work embraces in its scope advice to mothers regarding infant hygiene, development of moth ers’ classes and investigation of local conditions which influence morbidity and mortality in infancy and, in fact, in all the years of pre-school age. Nor does the organization propose to forsake the child with the closing of the schools. Specific provision re quires that the child receive proper care and attention during vacation days over the avenue of little moth ers’ leagues, which will be organized and called to regular meetings once a week during which lectures along scientific care will be given free of charge. The work is being conscientiously prosecuted by Miss McGowan, Sedg wick county’s Red Cross Nurse, and the results up to date are such that they speak for themselves.
