Junior League members Mrs. J. Arthur Thompson (L) and Mrs. L. Donald Fisher (R) assist public health nurse Alva Tuve in weighing a baby during a well baby check at the County Hospital at 3572 Pacific Avenue in August of 1935. This child welfare clinic was one of the programs financially supported by the Junior League in Tacoma. Over 3,000 children were seen at League sponsored clinics during the previous year. The Junior League was dedicated to quality medical care for all local children and were later instrumental in the founding of Mary Bridge Hospital.
