8 HEALTHY BABIESI JACOBI'S DEMAND Nestor of American Physi-j cians Denounces Conditions Governing Motherhood. ATT.ANTIC CITY. Jun* 6- Ch»- r ifv’r cheei greeted Dr Atyraham Jacobi , a{ , he stepped to the front of the plat- j form at the meeting of the American ] Medical association and accepted the , gavel as the insignia of the highest of- _ flee In the country to which a physi cian may be appointed in the line of his profession. As this remarkable man o. I $2 assumed the duties of his omce he spoke with great feeling and said face- , titiously . , "I have been waiting for mor* than SO years to get here, but now that I have accomplished it, I am going to tell what I intend to do. There are but a i short feu years left to me, but In that , time I want to see the American people . regenerated. "At the present time mothers do not want to nurse their babies because they ’ do not know any better. You can not improve rm nature by any form of mod- ' ideation of milk and thousands and thousands of children are being sacri ficed annually on the altar of the modi fied milk station. Marriage Health Certificatea. “We have got to have national legis lation to compel the control of the | marriage relation. My first work will ( be the appointment of a committee which will take up the question of health certificates before marriage, and that if this is not done the American people are doomed to he one of the ex tinct races within the next century. "In addition to the dissipation of the ' men who are unfitted to marry, there are women who are Just as Incapable, because they have violated the laws of hygiene and health and are hourly bringing into the world degenerates that are sapping the life blood of the nation. If it continues and there Is no ( government control the future destinies , of America will be controlled by the , descendants of the immigrant who is far more moral.” I He Attacks Midwifery. The venerable specialist and "Nestor , of American Medicine,” as Dr. Jacobi was referred to, criticised the practice , of midwifery tn this country. He said: , "America should hang her head in ] Shame at the laxity of her laws In Europe midwives are subsidized, and In j some countries they are compelled to take a college course, and are under , such restrictions that If they do not , perform capably their licenses are re voked. Contrast this system to what is done here in America. “Midwives do as they please and in New York at least 50 per cent of all : Children are born without th* services of a physician Is it not a marvel, therefore, that so many women are tin ; subjects of disease after childbirth?"

DIXIE BOYS' CLUB NEEDS YOUR HID Atlanta Public Asked to Donate Liberally to Expense Fund for Big Outing. The Dixie Roys club needs $2,000 to provide for its outings this year, out ings Ift which 1,000 boys will share who might otherwise spend all their sum mer In the hot and dusty city streets. The directors have subscribed S7OO to ward the fund, and the Atlanta public is asked for the remainder George ('. Dorr, who founded the first boys club and is the best known work er among the youngsters in the South, is superintendent of the new organlza - tlon, and Dr. Joseph Jacobs is chair man of the board of directors. There's no sectarian line in the club; a boy is not asked whether he Is Jew or Gen tile, Catholic or Protestant; it isn’t a Sunday school. It's Just a big club for the youngsters who sell papers or run errands or work In stores, and for those who merely play. It isn't for the aris tocrat and it isn't for any other "class." It's for all boys who want to Join and who'll promise to behave. T. K. Glenn, the treasurer, will re ceive any donations sent him. It Is planned to establish a camp at Silver Lake, with competent men In charge, and to give the boys of Atlanta a chance to get away from the alleys and street corners, the loafing places and the temptations which draw them be cause they have "nothing to do."
