To Live to Be a Hundred Is Your Privilege

Abstract

<p>These days if you aren't a malnourished child of school or preschool age you are apt to feel neglected.</p> <p>The United States Children's Bureau is giving much help to the mothers of today so that their children may live long and well. We are apt to review our welfare accomplishment with much satisfaction. I hear it said: "Is not the infant mortality rate much lower now, and has not the average span of life been lengthened in the last decade from thirty; three years to forty-five years? Science surely has done much to increase the chances to live twelve years."</p>
