DERRICK SHEET METAL WORKS S44 CENTRAL AVENUE PHONE 845 JUNIOR AUXILIARY BABIES ARRIVE SAFELY AND THEIR LATER HEALTH MAINTAINED Among the thirty-seven babies whose birth the Junior Auxiliary of Laurel helped to make safe in 1934, there was born a pair of twins.

The little fellows and their mother seemed to get along nicely, and, after the usual period of hospltallzatlon, went home. The babies weighed seven and eight pounds each at birth. When Mrs. E. D.

Beverley, trained nurse, saw them, they were six months old. She was sent to call on the babies by the Junior Auxiliary, for whom she took over the job of visiting nurse some months ago. She found both babies had infected kidneys and were very ill. Immediately she had the services of a doctor, who himself furnished a formula, for their food and the rrujk they needed. They began to improve.

One of them took middle ear trouble. Again the doctor, and again the baby is on the mend. They are seven months old now. and getting along fine. They would have been dead, surely, but for the fostering care of The Junior Auxiliary, its good nurse, Mrs.

Beverley, and the doctor who was not satisfied to, give his services alone, but the formula that made them well again. Then there is another remarkable story that is told of the work of the Auxiliary with a sick This baby was an "Auxiliary ba by" too--that to gay, it was brought into the world the helpful care of the organization, that took trie mother to.the hospital and saw her and her infant safely through the delivery and the days succeeding. Mrs. Beverley, calling on the same baby seven months later, to see how it was getting along, found that it was thin and emaciated from malnutrition, and had developed rickets. Cod liver oil and the proper formula for food were supplied by the organization and now the baby, at the-age of ten months, is perfectly normal and'well, and has overcome the weakness evidenced Just three months ago in rickets.

A resume of the work accomplished by the Auxiliary in 1934 -will be published in The Leader soon. Children in Street Must Be Watched In the street" is the subject of today's Safety Talk by the Veterans of Foreign Wars to motor vehicle drivers, in connection with the safety campaign now being conducted here. The "talk" follows: Nearly one-third of the 36,050 persons killed in motor vehicle accidents last year were children. Children act suddenly and on impulse. They don't know what they arc going to do the next minute and the motorist meeting them doe's not know.

The real driver watches out for children. Here are the most common causes of children's accidents. 1. PLAYING IN THE STREETS: Children playing In the streets are absorbed In what they are doing and frequently are unaware rf approaching vehicles. Children playing or sitting on the curb are liable to do almost anything, and the real driver must be prepared accordingly.

It is advisable to avoid streets where large numbers of children play. 2. STEPPING OUT FROM BEHIND OBSTRUCTIONS: When driving on streets where there arc parked caj-s or obstructions which hide the view of the sidewalk, the real driver is prepared for the possibility of children stepping out from behind these obstructions directly into his path. 3. RUNNING IN TO THE STREET Dashing out into the street after a ball Is one of the most outstanding causes of children's accidents.

The real driver will watch out for the child's ball game. 4. HITCHING ON: Hitching on, or begging a ride, is always a dangerous practice. The real driver will prohibit this on his car. Let's all accept the V.
