GETTING OUT OF RUTS

An institution IS an artificial community. and in
all such communities there is tendency TO crys-
tailize into set ways which sometimes quite
irrational In institution they always treated
the fish which was served Friday with po-
tato masher before it sent to the table. This
came to the ears Of interested in the
institution. and the superintendent was appealed
for information He didn't know anything about
It, the inquirer suggested that they go TO in
Vestgate. The fish, which looked very nice was
Just coming from the oven. 1t was taken to a
table and the mashers were applied. The superin-
tendent asked the who performed the opera
ton why he did it. Did the patients like the fish
that way? The man didn't know. He supposed so.
He had been told TO mash the fish when he first
came. and had done IL since. Perhaps the
patients wouldn't est il any other way. Such Gus
toms this become established impercepubly-
Those who see things every day come take
them for granted. and il takes a newcomer to
notice their irrationaiity. All progressive institu
tons trying 10 break away from such
tendencies and make the life Of the institution more
natural. that the inmate when he STEPS back

In orphan asylums this tendency toward greater
naturalness is leading the cottage system Under
natural conditions children constantly in con-
