THE OREGON DAIEY- JOURNAL, PORTLAND, MONDAY, JUNE 21, 1920. Fresh air, sunshine, fresh food and cleanliness will stave off doctor bills and make th baby strong and welL Changes In the weather make it all the more Imperative that baby's diet be watched most closely. . Advice Given by '"Old Wives" Unsafe TT SEEMS often to be taken for granted that the young mother will understand by a . sort of intuition the care which her baby requires, as though It needed no mots toan. a new born animal of some lower crder of Mife. The fact is that a lower animal, slight though Its needs are when compared to thoav of a baby, has a parent which by instinct is, far better able to care for it than is the human mother for her child..' That she knows nothing is both the mother's safeguard and , her danarer. Ready and anxious as she is to fit her self for her new duties, she is even bv . this anxiety rendered too ready to accept aagospel alf that is tbld her about the care of her infant by those who assume to know, but who "darkeneth , counsel by words without knowledge." She be comes thus the prey of "old wives fables" and- of all sorts of gratuitous advice, the tnjuriousnera of which is shown too late . In the condition of the unhappy child. A well-informed obstetrical nurse can be of great assistance to a new mother beginning the care of her baby. Un fortunately not all nurses are of this class and some are full of absurd and harmful teachings and practices, while even those who are Intelligent and well trained often err greatly in many points. Of all this, the mother is, of course, un able to judge, unless she herself knows what is right. The baby's grandmother, although often of great assistance,, is naturally sometimes rather rusty in mat- 1 ters relating to the - care of children. Moreover, it is most true, in the words of the old song, that j "Times have changed since - then. And life is a different thing." And many methods which were consid ered entirely correct years ago have since been grealty improved or even found to have been actually wrong. - The mother, therefore. Is liable to find herself, after the departure of her nurse and physician, ignorant and without reliable resources, upon which to draw. Such being the case she should fortify herself with one of the standard and practical books on the care of the baby. : v Baby Is a .vary indefinite term, often applied by mothers to children who have far outgrown their right to the name as strlcUy used. But "baby" the 'child still is to Its mother, unless a second comer has added dignity to the , first born's position. From a strictly medical standpoint babyhood and childhood ' are very commonly divided into three per iods, concerning the exact limits of which physicians. ar not altogether agreed. Most conveniently we may speak of, first. Infancy, which extends from birth to the age of 2 years ; second, early childhood, from the age of 2 to 6 years; and third, later childhood, from that of 6 years to that of puberty, that is 13 to 15 years of age. , 'Two Cars Go Over Bank; Official of .

Mr. Babv Tells Some of His Views TTKRE is an "autobabyography" that is wui inieresungiy put logemcr and replete with much food' for thought on the part of fond parents: joy we time i naa attained tne vener able age of 20 months the entrance to my esophagus, vulgarly known as the ETUllet or food -int w armaA wltv.- fairly useful outfit of masticating : ap- lursius, consisting or, eignt incisors or cutting machines, four canines or tear ing machines for tearing apart hunks of meat and the like, and four molars or grinding machines. With these X was able. If necessary, to shift for - myself, though practically all , of the w.lc and more or less eminent baby specialists, as my dad found in a cursory examina tion of their books, advocated consider able coddling and : pampering - for us older boys. 1 reckon, from sotto remarks occasionally emitted by dad, that these baby specialists Just hate to admit a guy must eat. They prefer to teach that he must be fed. A baby specialist, if he could have his own way about it, would never turn the baby over to the family doctor or .the other specialists until he was safely married and settled down. Pediatri&ts, as they are secretly called In the profession, limit their prac tice to the care and treatment ; of in fants, and- their comprehension :of in fancy, is exceedingly broad. By the time the pediatrlst is reluctantly constrained to surrender the management of the case, another very liberal and comprehensive specialist, the internist, generally" as sumes, charge for. the vital period from, say, age of 22 to age CO. After that the lesser specialists are permitted to see the' case in consultation. - . Father thinks that every young doctor who is too : lazy to remain In general practice should be a baby specialist until the babies are pretty well grown up and then sort, of metamorphose Into an in ternist to go right on' looking after the same babies. That is, he advocates this course for young -doctors who do not feel Impelled to get rich, quick by becoming eye, -ear, nose, throat, head, brain, neck, chest and shoulder specialists. The rea son why specialists are so numerous in this latter branch of medicine is because the internists have cornered about every thing worth mentioning below the dia pbram. save the feet, and the shoe clerks are glad to pose as specialists on the feet. - Here is a sample menu of ray diet from the age pi 18 months until I was S years. old:..
