Infant W eliare stations and Baby Clinics are multiplying in all parts of the country, and the baby wel fare nurse has come to be a recognized institution. She is a student of condi tions which are responsible for the high infant death rate, and as a collector of information and statistics she hns iil ready proved invaluable to local gov ernments. Hie not onlv knows why so many children die in their first year, but she can mid docs prevent dcnllis which would occur if it were not for her watchfulness. Whether the baby welfare nurse in employed bv the Division of Child II v giene of a city government, whether she acts for a hospital or baby clinic, or is engaged by a woman s club or a Visit ing Nurse society her service is that of investigator, advisor and educator. She is bound to become one of the most im portant factors in the. enmpaign for bet ter babies, and for more live babies and fewer dead ones.

The baby welfare nurse has a tremen dous responsibility. Her daily routine demands faithfulness and close atten tion. In cities where the board of health works in close connection with physi cians and where prenatal care is provid ed the nurse is given the names of all expectant mothers in her district. She keeps them under supervision until the children are born ana rfien assumes re sponsibility for the babies as well as for the mothers. She makes weekly visits to their homes, shows them how to prepare the baby's food, under the doctor's instructions.

The effect of the, plain toned ribbon of course accentuates the fact that the en tire skirt is formed of ribbon lengths alone.

In many of the ribbon skirts the plain and fancy ribbons are used in alternat ing strips running around instead of up and down. These are forsooth for the willowy woman while the perpendicular strips bring joy to the portly persons who are short of stature and breadth and long only-on Kmbnnpoint. Another method of applying the wid er 12 and 15-iucli fancy ribbons is ns a panel in the front and back of the skirt with a width of pleated plain lined silk on the sides.
