Mothercraft Society to be Formed in Oshawa Mrs. Irving Robertson Who Heads Toronto Society Tells Oshawa Women Virtues of Mothercraft It was decided at a meeting of' representatives of every women's organization of the city, held yesterday afternoon in | Rotary Hall to orgapiZe in Oshawa, a branch of thd Canadian Mother- craft Society. \ Mrs. Irving Rob- ertson, who hedds the Toronto Branch and who is a former member of the Mothercraft So- ciety of New Zealand, spoke to the Women of Oshawa and laid hefore them facts concerning the society and the wonderful work it has done in lowering the in- fant mortality rate, since its e~inning in Toronto. Mrs. Rob- ertson gave statistics to prove that the Mothercraft Society is well worthy of a place along with other social service organi- 'ations. In New Zealand the death ~ate has, through the efforts of the Mothercraft been lowered from seventy-one per cent, to sixty-one per cent. It has been very active in South Africa and Palestine. The Mothercraft centres are apen to all mothers anq pros- nective mothers of every walk of 'fe. Trained nurses who have "urthered their knowledre of nursing by taking the Mother- ~raft courses are employed to ~ive instruction in prenatal and nostnatal care. Difficult and un- usual cases are dealt with, with very little expense to the mother, if ghe is not in a position to pay. Thus giving he children a proper ~nd healthy start in the world. "I wou'a like to see the omen of Ontario have such a *'ne record of health in them- alves and their chil"ren that "oy will be an examnle for the ~thrr women of the Dominion," ~'4 Mrs. Ro"ertgon, The Canadian Mothereraft So- 'ety i8 not yet a year old. It 'rq started in Toronto last "*~r~h, but the number of moth- =~ that have been helped and the ~umber of children that have Feen brou~ht successfullv into the world by the Mothercraft nurses fs amazin~. Mrs. Robertson told a number of stories that have form- ed a romantic background for the voung Canadian Society. The Mothercraft started in 1918 in Enrland with the young war brides that were leaving the country to go to New Zealand. It met with so great success that were discussed for the good of the lodge. One of these was to form a club for future outings, and Sister Gutsole was appointed in charge of it. A party for tne Daughters of England and their fricnds will be held next Tues- day evening at the home of Sister Hoitens, 22 Bruce Street. The members are requested to bring some lunch and a small of groceries to the after euchres - that will start in weeks' time.

The Society will work along with the Public Health Department, the Oshawa General Hospital and the Welfare Society, and the Home and School Coun- ell. Mrs. R. 8. McLaughlin, who as nresident of the Home and School Council presided over the meet- ing yesterday afternoon said when it was decided by a vote of the women present, te organize in Oshawa.
