A New School. <7 



The School for Mothers, begun here as a branch of the Society for 

 the Protection of Children, is but in its experimental stage, time alone 

 will show whether it will succeed here as the parent institutions have 

 done in England, but it is at least an attempt to help the mothers in 

 the training of healthy children, and to reacdi the ideal set by the English 

 Board of Education in its recent Memorandum. " If girls and women 

 could be taught how to take care of infants, w-e might hope to diminish 

 not only the high rate of infant mortality, but also the large amount of 

 unnecessary ill-health and suffering saused by neglect in infancy and 

 childhood."
