Mothers frequently {and with the best intentions feed and dress thejr babies in a manner that, for the sake of a better term is simply '"'killing the babies with kindness." What is the meaning of the world-wide interest in Child Welil- . fare to-day? It means that sociologists, phil= anthropists, eugenists, all thought ful women and men, are discaver~ ing that the welfare of the child holds such an important place in social and national life, that no longer can this study be neglected.' There is a God-given instinct in. every decent man and woman that cries out for protection for the children. The world can look with comparative composure at dead men in trenches and shattered cath- naked, starv- ing children is a sight it cannot bear without passicn and amaze- ment, and a strong desire to do things.

We conservation of hm an life-- the knowlede® that will leesen the number of tiny graves in the ceme- teries, and saddened hearts of lov ing parents--this is the information the better Canadian Bebies Bureau is trying to diffuse. First of all it ought to be the child's privilegee to be born right of healthy parents having no hist- ory of mental disease, malignant troubles, tubeiculesis, or alcohol- ism. The child does not select its parents, and it is a tragical situate ion if, as the child grows up, it learns to deplore that such is the case. Pre-natal influences and their effect upon the mental and physi cal condition of later life might be profitably studied by prospective parents. In fact, and common if the same care sense used in the management of the domestic ani~ mals were applied in the rearing of provement on the present m schods. Mothers have it in theif power to see to it that there are "better Canadian babies," ane as a natural result there will be more of them. A Counter Attack McGill Daily.
