Back in the 1930s the US Department of Labor provided new mothers with an instruction booklet on how to 'manage' their new borns. They were formatted as time cards indicating what should be done at regular intervals throughout a 24-hour day. Mothers were instructed to hang the cards where they could see them every day. The series of cards covered the child through its first two years. I thought they were amusing.
I've posted the first three cards in the series. They come from Ernie Layton Wood's scrapbook. Many thanks to her daughter Susan.
