“PRECIOUS LUGGAGE”
OFFICIALS THANK HITLER LONDON, Dec. 20. The most precious bit of luggage ever—a baby—has made railway officials thank Hitler for women railway porters. At Stoke Station, a sixmonth old baby was found. The mother left the child sleeping in a carriage while she ran for a cup of tea at Rugby. Before she could get back the train had steamed out. A car attendant, Mrs Doris Chard, borrowed a milk bottle from another woman passenger’s baby and fed it. while a porter, Mrs Mary Patrick, took charge of the baby and nursed it in the waiting room until the mother arrived.
