Ultra Violet Bath
Most mothers overflow with pride when their infant sons begin to toddle across the room from chair to chair at the tender age of ten months. Last week in Chicago, little Harmon Loeb, aged five weeks, walked unaided across a room. Dr. Carl Loeb sees in his son's feat no miracle, says.: "We bathe Harmon every day for ten or fifteen minutes in ultraviolet rays [which] help the blood absorb the calcium in food, thereby building bone. The baby is given a series of exercises three times a day designed to strengthen the muscles . . . sleeps on a bread board with a pad and pillow."
