The perambulator problem

The counsel of perfection according to many modern ideas is that a baby, for the first few months, should be carried and not put in a perambulator - but this is nearly always impracticable. It is, however, possible and most important that every baby should be given a perambulator that will not jar the spine, that will allow plenty of sunlight and air to reach the child without exposing it to cold winds or glaring sun, and that it should run easily and be comfortable for mother or nurse to push. 10 March 1926
