Photographed in 1918, this booth was part of the national 'Children's Year' campaign, a joint effort of the U.S. Children's Bureau and the Council of National Defense's Woman's Committee to combat infant mortality during World War I. Staffed by volunteers and a trained nurse, the exhibit offered mothers practical guidance on infant care, birth registration, and regular weight monitoring - reflecting how wartime civic organizations extended their mission into public health education on the home front.
