These all have some part in the total traffic picture. But it's the driver's own conditions, both mental and physical, that cause a great many of the accidents that voti read and hear about dky by day. You may find somewhere in the accident report that the driver in an accident was tired, angry, inattentive, or even had been drinking. Harder to find in the report would.be the driver's mental state at the time of the accident. In many cases the driver didn't know, didn't think or didn't care about the possibility of having an accident. How can he be made more aware of the danger he is causing to himself and everyone else? One good way is by an active community campaign against such thinking. Buy U.S. Savings Bonds When the first baby arrives, the j new parents are often confronted j with fears that they will do some- i thing wrong in caring for the in- j fant. This is a natural feeling, but it is the physician's job to render adequate advice to the mother so that she will have assurance in handling her baby, the educational committee of the Illinois State Medical society observes in Health Talk. With the new baby being the center of' things, very often it is difficult for the rtiother to adjust herself to the change in routine. This is an emotional affair and can be worked out effectively, once the mother recognizes that she should not be too concerned about small disturbances in the old, well managed routine of her previous life. - The baby's cry is an important signal, since this is the only way of expressing himself. For this reason the mother must understand the infant's need, whether he is hungry, wet, cold, frightened, or whether his arms and legs are restrained forcibly in any one position. Very often, ttte cry will indicate sheer boredom. Many new mothers are inclined to feed the baby every time 't cries. This is not wise, for the baby's gastrointestinal tract becomes distended with air and food, and the result is a constant colic. In general, most mothers are inclined to overdress their babies. Actually the clothing varies with the season, but the infant should not be kept too hot. Cotton garments next to the skin are advisable, regardless of the season. In some infants, a brownish crust appears on the top of the head. This condition is referred to as ' cradle cap" and is ar. allergic manifestation, indicating that the baby is sensitive to either some food or a substance with which he is in contact. It may even be caused by the mother's hair, scented soaps or perhaps the wool in clothing or blankets. Most babies are born with rather long hair, yet many infants of three months seem to have a sparse amount. The hair of the newborn is of a very fine texture and is gradually lost. As the hair regrows a change of color is commonly noticed. Even though the regrowth is gradual, there is no need to be alarmed if the baby is well and developing normally. The baby's eyes will change too. | All babies are born with biue eyes; i some may be dark and some light, j The change in color is noted [ about the third month. Brown pigi ment or coloring matter makes its i appearance gradually, so that ; when the infant reaches from six I to eight months, parents can usually say whether the eyes are i gray, blue or brown. Give the baby comfortable surroundings, proper food and love. A calm and happy environment will do much not only for the baby, biit for the parents too. A baby needs a great deal of attend tion, but once the adjustment in household routine and living has been set he will make7 his own contribution of enjoyment to the fam*, ily.
