HEALTH
By Dr. Dan E. Standard
How sad indeed is the fact that
thousands of infants and hun
dreds of Mothers of America and
other lands also, die every year,
whose lives could be spared to
t comfort and bless others, simply
^ because the prospective Mother has
not had the information and in
sti uction she is entitled to have.
Some customs are carried over
' from one generation to another,
rhat are hurtful to health and dan
dreds of Mothers of Americ and
gerous to life. Light and knowl
edge has helped much in this field
of protecting the lives of infants
and their mothers, but we certain
ly have not gone far enough, nor
made enough progress, when the
figures recently given out by the
•f United States Public Heaitn service
shows that one out of every one
># hundred and, fifty mothers die in
j* childbirth. That means that 15,000
j* mothers die in the United States
* every year this way. Awful! is’nt
* it? It is an awful harvest of death
’ that is largely unnecessary.
* The report states that almost
\ ono quarter million infants under
\ the age of one year die every year
| in America, and of these 100,000
* die the first month of their lives.
[ This will be vastly changed when
\ prospective mothers have instruc
! lions she is entitled to as mothers
I of our children.The Public Health
l Service is trying to spread propo
. ganda of health instructions and
* educational campaign especially for
t 'omen, and many States are me
j» mg the offer of the government to
!► go fifty-fifty on the expense of car
f rving on such an educational cam

Who "Owns”
Union Oil?
The answer is, “10,200 people,” of whom no one indi
vidual owns more than 2 per cent. Probably some of
your friends are “owners.”
MEN, women, children, widows, or
phans, employes, bankers, shop
girls, doctors, lawyers, clerks, executives
—perhaps some friends of yours—are
cumbered among the stockholders of
Union Oil Company of California.
A community of people, not a group
of capitalists'—a representative Ameri
can public, not a few rich men or one or
two wealthy “estates”—are the “own
ers of Union Oil Company.”
A number of so-called “small people”
own as many as two shares—quoted on
the market today at a price between
f40X>0 and $90.00—so their entire
“holdings" amount to the grand total
of leas than $100. Small savings—but
part ownership nevertheless,and“Union
OiT atlcomn ail *o ownership no mat
ter how anall the holding.
But w« heiurve we are proudest to
cumber among the names of our stock
holder* thoM of ant own employes.
And most of this stockholding by cm*
ployes is investment ownership, with no
thought of speculation. It is “rainy*'
day” saving—capital account—a “stake”
for independence.
It represents belief in the Company,
confidence and trust in its permanence
and future.
To us, this means deep obligation oa
our part—a trust that we must keep.
And in keeping it for those who work
for us we keep it for all others—for our
selves who own our own stock, for our
employes, and for you outside. Because
you own the same stock as we do if you
are on our stockholders’ list.
So when you think of “Union Oil,”
think of it as human—as an institution
owned and operated by an everyday type
of home-loving human beings, not by the
wealthy or by a few “big capitalists.”

a Western Company, making non

many States.
It is a most unfortunate thing,
but fact nevertheless, that many a
prospective mother does not consul
a physician until a few minutes or
hours before the birth of the baby.
She should have counsel and in
structions from the first day she
knows her condition.
I here quote some of a recent
article by Dr.Copeland on this sub
ject, which is worthy of reproduc
tion and attention.
The great trouble with young
mothers is that they hesitate to talk
about the matters wg are discus
sing. They are unwilling to con
fide in the family physician. This
is a mistake. Frankness and good
sense at this time will mean the
saving of a baby’s life and perhaps
the saving of a mother, too.
The first thing a young couple
should do after choosing a place of
residence is to find out where is
the nearest good doctor. If you
are in doubt about this, ask the
health officer of tho town to tell
you. Go to the priest or rabbi or
minister and let him advise where
there is an upstanding, fine physi
cian. Don’t be in a hurry to make
the selection, but when you have
decided what doctor you want, let
the young couple call upon the phy
sician and make his acquaintance.
Tell the doctor you are more anx
ious to stay well than to get well.
Don’t be afraid to pay him a fee
now and then, even though you
don’t seem to be in particular need
medical attention.
The advice I have given you is
good advice no matter what hap
pens, but if there is a prospect of
an addition to the family, the young
couple is nogelecting a manifest
duty if medical advice is not taken
in the very beginning. It is this
sort of thing the Public Health
Service has in mind in its campaign
for defeating disease and death.
