BROOKLYN EAGLE, JUNE 2, 1947 11 What MEN Are the Nursery Set New Insulated Carrier Protects Baby's Formula When Traveling By GERTRUDE MCALLISTER Woman's Editor What's new for baby? Recently several new comforts for the very young have appeared on the market and chances are that the chief joy among them is an insulated, formula and food carrier. This will prove of particular interest to the mother who has natural qualms every time she finds it necessary to give her baby a feeding away from home. The new carrier' is called the Baby Polar Pak and is being marketed by the Baby Safety League. Inc. Made of black Butanol leatherette, it is double insulated with fiber glass and lined with white plastic.

It is equipped with a slide fastener for quick and positive closure and has a wide shoulder strap for convenience in carrying. A built-in pocket in the inner side of the carrier provides space for cookies, bottle nipples or small articles. The bottles themselves are placed in a new separate bottle carrier which is made of white plastic and which has two compartments fitted to hold one bottle each. This also has a zipper fastener. The bottle carrier is insulated in itself but it is intended that after the formula has been placed in this case.

it be inserted in the Baby Polar Pak for further insulation and for convenience in carrying. The Pak. which is priced at about $5, will keep the formula protected and fresh up to 34 hours, according to the manufacturer's claims. The Baby Safety League, is located at 83 Prospect Stamford, Conn. if you wish to write for further information.

Nursery Brush Set Also being seen around in department stores, infant shops and drug stores is the latest member of the Hughes Brush family, the "Little Locks" brush set for babies. Priced at $1.75. the adorable little hair brush has a clear lucite handle and the softest of nylon bristles especially designed for little babies whose heads must be handled gently. A perfect tiny comb completes the set. Since there is no treatment for adult hair to compare with a good brushing, it follows that the same treatment should be given the very young.

The flexible bristles reach down to the tender scalp and in the most gentle way, offer a stimulation suitable to the baby. More Baby Pants The type of protective baby pants an infant wears is up to mother who today has the advantage of quite a selection--as different from war years when Kleinert. one of the biggest manufacturers in this field, turned its production facilities to war needs.

absorbent filler pads can easily be slipped into place and as quickly changed. Sun Tan or Sun Burn? Bright sunny days call for protecting baby's skin and the young mother will find that a good baby oil will prevent sunburn. When first exposed to the sun. baby's skin should be well oiled.
