 A tiny card, announcing a baby's birth, is tied with a white ribbon to a card showing the mother's and father's names. The small card has the baby's birth date engraved at the left hand corner. These are sent to all friends of the parents. An engraved birth card is shown at some stationers' ready for filling in and is most quaintly lettered, with touches of pink for a girl and blue for a boy.
