WARNS PARENTS ON BABY CARE FORHOT DAYS Doctor Advises Close Guard on Food and Keeping Infant at Home. . Need for extreme care in tending infants and children during the hot weather season was cited today by Dr. Herman G. Morgan, city health officer. “Contrary to the belief of the average citizen, hot weather is the healthiest season of the year, provided hygienic measures per taming to diet, clothing and exercise are followed. It is a time when fresh air and ventilation are forced on every citizen in order to obtain comfort. In addition a great deal of time is spent outdoors,” Dr. Morgan said. “There is one class of the population, however, upon which extremely warm weather is trying—that is the infant and early age , group of children. The malady which infants and children most frequently succumb to during the summer is gastro-intsetinai infection or summer complaint. Guard Milk Closely “This condition generally results from two principal causes- -contaminated food or mlik and chill during the night. As milk is the principal food for the bottle fed group of infants as well as growing children, extreme care should be exercised in protecting mils from contamination. “This can best be carried out by seeing that milk for children is al- . ways kept under proper refrigeration. Ice and milk are Inseparable from the health standpoint in hot weather. “Milk left in the sun for even a half hour will generate an increase in bacteria content many fold. Milk with such infectious material becomes a poison instead of a food. The mistake is frequently made when a child developes early, symptoms of summer complaint of keeping the child on its regular diet. Resort to Liquid Diet "The proper procedure is to ■ clean out the intestinal tract with oil and keep the infant or child upon water or liquid diet for ; twenty-four or forty-eight hours. This gives opportunity for the infected part of the intestinal tract to clear itself and not be irritated by food passing over the infected r surface. “By adopting this measure and ‘ consulting the family physician early the infant mortality rate from such infections can be greatly reduced. “The body should be comfortably clothed during hot weather. One part of the body should always be protected with a light garment or binder, particularly at night—namely, the abdomen. Two or three tepid baths a day will assist a , future citizen in weathering the hot spells and will make the child less fretful and irritable. Keep Baby at Home “The test place for the baby in the summer is at home. Babies do not stand vacations well, for this means change of environment and ; food. These changes are not borne, well by the early age group. “Plies in a household where there is a baby may be messengers ot death—they carry contamination and may deposit it on the nursing bottle or the baby’s hands,” Dr j Morgan advised. SHUN HOSPITAL TOPIC Cabinet Devotes Time to Budget Discussion. Discussion of the city hospital building program was avoided at Mayor L. Ert Slack’s cabinet meeting Wednesday, it was indicated to- . day. Slack said there was no discussion of the hospital project, the en- < tire two hours being devoted to [' budget talk. ! The council Monday night denied the health board’s request to suspend rules and authorize a S6O,uC3 \ bond issue to provide fees for architects and an engineer for the hospital building program. Councilmen objected to the program because a consultant had not been employed and it was considered likely that the cabinet wopld take up the question.

of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals. Dr. Clarence True Wilson, director of the board, declared that this represented only an annual average dismissal of 4.2 per cent, or about one person out of twenty-five dismissed each year. “Some of the causes were unsatisfactory service and failure to file income tax returns,” ne said. “Only 158 were dismissed on charges of extortion, bribery or soliciting money, an average of 20.5 dismissals a year, or six out of each 1,000 employes. “On charges of collusion and conspiracy, only three-tenths of 1 per cent of the -prohibition agents have been dismissed. “These percentages are astonishingly small, especially in view of the fact that wet politicians from certain States have exerted themselves to the utmost to secure the appointment of bad men. “There has been far more cor-

ruption in New York City alone than in all the remainder of the country put together. Corruption has been confined almost wholly to the wet centers, where many of the same men who assail the law strive to promote its violation. “There can be nothing more reprehensible than wholesale charges against the characters of poorly paid, overworked and honest men.” June Bride Asks Divorce TERRE HAUTE, Ind., July 20.
