Excerpt from Infant Mortality, Montclair, N. J: A Study of Infant Mortality in a Suburban Community The Montclair Board of Health in 1913 determined to conduct an inquiry into infant mortality in Montclair, basing its inquiry upon all the births which occurred in the town during the calendar year 1912 and proceeding according to the plan adopted by the Federal Children's Bureau for its series of infant mortality studies. Schedule forms, such as had been used by the Children's Bureau in its field study in Johnstown, Pa., were furnished to the board of health, and a field agent of the bureau was sent to Montclair to explain to the local investigators the schedule questions and the bureau's methods of collecting statistical information. No Montclair nurses visited the homes of the babies, interviewed the mothers, and filled out for each baby a schedule covering the first year of its life or as much of the first year as it survived. The fourth-ward mothers were visited by the board of health nurse. The other nurse was engaged to make the investigations in the rest of the town. Behaving that a report of the results of this inquiry into infant mortality in a suburban community would be of interest, the scheduled information has been tabulated by the Children's Bureau. In the report have been included a brief description of the town, an analysis of infant mortality in Montclair in 1912, and a discussion of the various social and civic factors which in Montclair seem to have been closely related to the problem of infant mortality.
