Making America safe for babies. The Child Welfare Special. All aboard for healthy town. This big automobile truck equipped as an up to date "well baby clinic" has been sent out by the U.S. Children's Bureau to test the value of a traveling health center for remote communities. No medical aid is given by the government doctor and nurse in charge but babies are examined to see if they are growing as they should, and mothers are given advice and instruction in child care
