On this question he says: do not rea-

Spankster's tonic" On the question Of
spanking ana the reasoning faculties of
children under ten years there is room
for wide diversity Of opinion. But this
was only incidental to DIR. Halls more
important observations regarding GER
tain errors In the physical development
OF children. He declared that the cruel
law that makes the child bend Its en-
ergles to getting accuracy In its finer
muscles, as In writing, when the larger
or basal muscles need attention. should
be taken from the school room. The
child wants freedom Of action, not re-
preston. "Cut of a tadpOle's tall and
1t never has any legs" said DR.. Hall.
The instinct of the child Is to use Its
larger muscles first. Conduct, or mus
Gle habit, Is SO closely related to the
brain that any unnatural repression of
the basal muscles tends to stunt tho
mental as well as the physical develop
ment OF children. When a child is COM
PEELED to sit still there Is also mental In
ertia, and Its mind loses initiative aud
becomes stagnant.
