Devon Pike pumps breast milk as her daughter Delilah, 2, snuggles her before a doula appointment at the home of her client Larissa Pyer, in Lebanon, N.H., on Saturday, Feb. 26, 2022. Pike, who has three children, has donated over 24,000 ounces of milk to mothers who are unable to fully nurse their own infants. She decided not to donate through a milk bank because parents are required to pay several dollars per ounce of milk. "If families are using 30 to 40 ounces a day, that's a lot," she said. "I don't make money from donating milk." (Valley News - James M. Patterson) Copyright Valley News. May not be reprinted or used online without permission. Send requests to permission@vnews.com.

Virginia Clerkin wears a mask while walking down South Main Street in Hanover, N.H., where she is the manager of J. Crew, Monday, July 27, 2020. The Town of Hanover will hold a public hearing on a mask ordinance next week. Currently signs throughout the downtown area request the use of face masks. A short time later Dwight Campbell, of West Lebanon, passed by on his way to a meeting with a friend and said he was pleased to see the majority of people on the street wearing masks. “I’m sorry that there’s a particular confusion between notions of personal freedom and simple things that people can do to protect themselves and others,” said Campbell, a retired surgeon, of those that don’t wear face coverings.
