Babies today '? ng a better time of it than I 40 years ago. when they I by the tloek. dressed by k and put to bed on the ( the hour. they cried in those days re just left to cry?there picking them up. Thumb- j was taboo. They wore layer yer of clothes. Mothers rouraged to put them out ? a while every day no mat t the weather. Changing s are reflected in compar revision of "Infant Care." | Children's Bureau booklet dished in 1014 and today d by millions of mothers as , or very nearly the last, what is best for baby. I 's advice is to use modera Dut schedules, letting the ie some say about when he and when he will $leep. j are rugged individualists,; ant Care" recommends you get away with it to a con r extent. h-mcking came in for sharp i in early editions of the n 1914 mothers were advis in the sleeve of the baby's | ver the "fingers of the of hand for several days and to stop the habit. Some eemed to forget they ever r '- A result of this prac ?. i :? : . . ?. 1 I tice on my own was that she slept for a couple of years thereafter with the "ofjending" thumb tucked neatly between forefinger and third finger. Later editions say: "Suck ing is the first way a baby gets pleasure. Sucking is a poor sub stitute for being held or talked to or fed. but it is better than noth ing." Thinking is also reversed on picking up the bahy. Now the ad vice is: "About the first way you can be of use to your baby is by holding him closely and waumly."| It tells you to "hold him all you like." j In 1914 mothers were told that | the baby "should be taught to use , the chamber" by the third month or even earlier. The ninth edition counsels: "A child can get to feel- i ing that his mother is his enemy j if she urges on him things he is not ready for." Sometime between one and a half and two years is sug gestcd as a "much more common time" for babies to learn bowel control willingly and to act "civi lized." J As for outings: "On cold, dark or very damn days the baby will be better off in the house in a well-aired room. On very hot days, the house may be cooler than it is outside. On days when there is a j high wind he may be better off indoors than outside because of the amount of dust in the air." Windows Give Ventilation Without Draft Windows in the Haywood County Hospital form an attractive part of ts construction and are practical >s well as beautiful. They are of steel-sash type and constructed in such a manner that ventilation etui be provided without irafts. Rain will not blow in when :he windows are open. Another feature is that they can he washed entirely from the inside. Costly "Diamond" SAN ANTONIO <AP> ?
