And as for the sheds, the stalls. the piles of manure, the milk cans casually rinsed at a handy trough, the only thing to do is to "forget it" or cut out milk. As an example nf the nnlversal In. difference to the conditions here in London, the society sent, round It secretary to all the London hospitals, asking that she might be allowed to take samples of the milk supplied to them and have it tested at, the Lister institute.

London, April seems ages sine In our little western town began agitating for pure milk. How hard we worked in those far-off sunny Kansas days or rather how hard we we were working.

How we "studied and tried to get people interested and how disagreeable we thought it to go and talk to men In the milk business telling them things they did not went to hear and despised us for knowing. Yesterday wnejj I went to a shabby old building at No. 2 Soho Square, where the natfonal lean milk society has set up its offices, I began to see that the work done by American women for the last 20 years in every town and city the length and breadth of our country has not only borne a rich reward to us but is already saving thousands of babies' lives every week here in Great Britain. -Inspiration From U. 8.

If it had not been that those men and women, who began in 1915 to agitate for clean milk in England, were able to draw inspiration and help from the experience of America, their work would have been more difficult than It is now. And with the memory of our struggle fresh in my mind it appears child's play compared with what these people are up against. The favorite jsaylng among the French when a social disaster occurs is "Cherehez la femme." Well, nowadays when you see a new scheme for helping people, for smoothing the way of progress of women or babies or wounded soldiers, everybody asks at once, "What's the name of the American woman who started this idea?" I am not at liberty to tell the name of the American woman who really started the national clean miUc society. She married an Englishman and came over here to live. When her first baby was born it became necessary to feed it "with cow's milk.

The rest of the story is the same as thousands of others we know so The baby pined away, it developed tubercular glands, and as a last resort the distracted father, driven by the despair of his wife at trying to get milk tl'at was not contaminated, packed up his little family, took a place in the seven different schools for mothers in London, where women who are unable to breast feed their babies go for milk, showed a large percentage pf B. coli, the micro-organism derived from manure. The medical officer of health for a London borough recently made BANK TOGK SALE UP' a microscopic examination of 100 sam ples of milk bought in his area. "He found manure in 99 of them and was unable to identify the foreign matter present in large quantities in the hundredth CONSISTING OF MEN'S SIIIKT8, BOYS' SUITS, MEN'S AND liOYS' FURNISHINGS, LADIES'.
