Trend Towards Extreme Simplicity Advocated

MOVEMENT BY BABIES' CLUB

So definite is the trend towards! extreme. simplicity and a Spartan mode of life in the nurseries of to-day that elaborate fashions in baby clothes and luxuriously fur nished rooms for children may soon be found only in the homes of the less well-to-do.

This movement is being led by the doctors of the Bables' Clubs to which so many mothers in Mayfair It and Belgravia are subscribers.

is the children who are members from birth, not the mothers who take their babies down themselves in their cars once a week or once

a fortnight to have them weighed und axamined in exactly the same routine as the working-class motbera at municipal infant welfare centres. Simplicity begins with the cot and the baby clothes. The approved model shown to mothers at these clubs is a simple English willow one, resembling the, plalted rush| Moses basket on a stand, provided with handles so that the cot can be taken off the stand and placed in the garden, or in one of the stap- dard side wire "cages" erected outside nursey windows.
