THE KAPPA GIRLS Will Assist Mrs. Albion Fellows Bacon in the Child Hygiene Work IN EACH COUNTY County Chairman to Work Out Details for Collecting Necessary Data. The Indiana child welfare committee of which Mrs. Albion Fellows Bar | con of Evansville, is chairman, and , Mrs. Edna Hatfield Edmondson, of Bloomington, vice vhairman, has anI nounced that the Kappa Kappa soror-1 ity will assist with the child hygienne work in the state. The young women of the sorority have volunteered to do follow-up work for the 100,000 children who were weighed and measured last year by the child welfare committee. The child welfare chairmen in the counties worked faithfully last year on the weighing and measuring of all | children under six years, as the first i step in the national children's bureau i plan for “Children’s year.” With this , work accomplished, the next step cf ,the child welfare committee was to obtain passage of a state law providing | for a child hygiene department, in the! state board of health. This department, however, will not be organized I until October, so the Tri Kappas will take up the work in the meantime in , order that the results of the weighing and measuring may become apparent 'as soon as possible. The sorority members will work in each county under the direction of the county child welfare chairman. I According to Dr. Ada Sweitzer, who is to be director of the department of child hygiene, the most important work to be done immediately is to learn some facts about the children who were examined last year. Blanks have been prepared for recording the following facts about the children: Their nutrition, their gain in height s and weight, the condition of their | teeth, defects which have been corrected. health habits established since ■ last year, and birth registration. ’ These blanks have been printed by i the extension department of Indiana s, university.

She has suggested that it may be found best to have a canvass of all the children who were weighed and measured last year; and that perhaps a house-to-house canvass fyy means of teams of young womeir in automobiles, carrying in the automobile a pair of scales and a tape line for finding out the gain in height and weight may be the best arrangement. —Ifidlanat>olis News.
