Summer Babies (1911)
In the congested section of Chicago more than fifty nurses are engaged in visiting from house to house, and employed at baby tents, in caring for the sick babies of the poor. The accompanying illustration shows the interior of a baby tent on the roof of Mary Crane Day Nursery, where the babies are given medical attention and mothers are instructed how to care for them during the hot weather. There are free milk and ice stations, where poor mothers are supplied with milk and ice for the baby and are supplied with small, inexpensive iceboxes free. In this work the Chicago Department of Health, under whose supervision this work is carried on, has saved several hundreds of babies' lives every summer.
