TY - THES AB - The subject of infancy and maternity is one of particular im­portance in the field of public health, since in this field in which everyone has more or less interest, so much can be taught through different types of educational channels, and so many deaths are pre­ventable in this field if the proper education is available to the population as a whole. The installation of education here lagged greatly behind that of other public health work, but in 1893, child hygiene was inaugurated, not through organized health departments but rather through the philanthropic or private organizations of the times. These all directed their efforts in the field of sanitation chiefly, as a starting point.
