INSANITY CAUSED BY
FAULTY EDUCATION
Overwhelming of the Mind in
School Prominent Cause of
Mental Derangement.

karpas, Of New York, in a paper
read before the Medical Society of
the Manhattan State Hospital, on the
causes of dementia praecox, has this
to say regarding the influence OF
faulty education on the production of
youthful insanity:
Faulty Systems.
Faulty systems of education, as
well as mental surmenage, are contrib
uting factors to all forms of Adde'S
cent Insanity" He then quotes from
his own practice case which I'M
doubtedly is not unique, and which
should give pause to over-ambitious
educators who feel called upon to
cram their particular studies into un-
willing or unreceptive minds.
Illustration in Point.
In one of my patients, mental sur
menage was regarded as an important
factor in the causation Of her mental
breakdown. She was a young woman
Of eighteen, attended New York Nor
NAL college, and was apparently
bright in all studies save mathematics.
She had to work very hard in order

Burdens Of Students. +" D
Many observers have ascribed mem
tai and nervous troubles to the over
burdening of school life. On the one
hand, the complexity of modern civil
lzation If forcing additional subjects
and topics into the school curriculum
increasing the burdens Of the students;
on the other hand, the general con
ditions of life have left many children
with diminished nerve force with
which to cope with the increased bur
dens Connected with the educationa

THE ORGANIZED !. LABOR
MOVEMENT IN EUROPE
The Organization Of Trades
Unionists by the Rev.
!. Charles Sickle. =, i

Organized labor throughout thu
world is about 100000 strong. The
trades unionists in Great Britain, ac-
cording to the most recent figures.
have a total membership of 100000.
of which number 10000 are. women.
1t is estimated. that 33 per cent of the
workers in Great Britain are connect
ed with the trades unions There are
practically four divisions among the
organized workfng men affiliated with
the British trades congress, consisting
first. of about 100000 in the general
federation of trades unions (Which is
composed of 1874 national organizations,
and vino are, for the most part, skilled
workers), 100000 miners, 1850 men,
bers of the Railway Servants societies,
and about 100000 general workers and
laborers who are not affiliated with
the general federation. The organized
workingmen in England are represent
ed in their political and general activ-
tiles in what is known as the "Joint
Board which. is composed of four
members each from the following bod
les: First, the Parliamentary commit
tee consisting of the executive COM
mittee- of the British Trades congress) !;
second, the General Federation Of
Trades unions; third, the Labor Party,
which is the distinctively political or
gantzation Of the trades unionists
This Joint Board outlines the policies
of the workingmen and unfies their az
tivities. Mention Should be made,
however, of the Independent Labor
party, which is the, Socialist wing of
the Labor Party, and which contains
about Is per cent of it's membership.
I'm Germany.
German trades unionists number g.
100000 with about 10000 women, but
| in addition to this9 it is estimated that
there are 100000 "Christian Trades
Unionists'' who are controlled more or
less by the church. OF the total num-
Der of trades unionists in Germany,
perhaps $4,000 are Social Democrats,
standing 6 specifically for the Socialist
movement.
In France.
Estimates of the nun1bef of trades
! unionists in France vary considerably
but there are probably 100000 mem
bers Of organized labor, 100000 OF
whom belong to the confederation du
| Travail or the Federation of Labor
In Denmark and Sweden.
Probably the largest percentage OF
workingmen in the trades union OF
any country in Europe are to be found
in Denmark and Sweden, the Denmark
trades unions containing fully so per
cent of the toilers and Sweden about
3S per cent. In Hungary there is an
estimated membership of 10000 or 2s
per cent Of all the working people
Austria has nearly 100000 or :1S per
cent. while italy, with its immense
population, contains only 100000 OF
per cent.
Comparison with u. S. !.
! The United States with its 5000, 0OO
trades unionists, is in the lead in the
total number of worktngmen and
workingwomen who are in the trades
union movement, even though the per-
centage of workingmen in the trades
unions is not as great as it is in some
countries in Europe.

PROVIDE GAROIhs For
The SCHOOL CHILDREN
That Education is Inadequate
That Does Not hit Children 4
M For Life s Duties. Us

The movement for school gardens
which has been 50 prominent feature
of recent educational development,
probably means more y to the home
gardens of the next generation than
any ether phase of educational work.
At first such gardens met with serious
objection from many classes Of. peo-
pie, but wherever they have been in.
troduced, they have won approval on
all sides. w 80 >zE:,a, y .
Object Of Education. =,
An education that does not fit per-
son to be better able to support him
self and those dependent upon him
certainly falls short of what it should.
1t should also make him a better citi-
zen, for that is one of the great rea-
sons that state funds are Continually
appropriated for the establishment
and maintenance of our public schools.
Since less than one per cent of our
boys and girls who are. to earn their
living from the land attend agricultur-
al schools or colleges, it seems import
ant that our common and elementary
schools Should teach something of the
rudimentary methods Of agriculture
and help in a greater degree to fit
them for their life employment.
!: Value of Garden.
Where there is sufficient space to
allow an individual garden for each
pupil, better work can be accomplished
terfstlcs. Even if the gardens are
small, a great deal Of good may be
done. Sometimes the produce raised
Is a great Involvement to theboys, and
when it is sold by the school, it often
furnishessa fund for pictures and books
besides furnishing enough to prepare
the garden for the following year.
Overcoming Difficulties.
To overcome the lack OF space
which exists about many school build
ings, vacant lots may often be utilized
to good advantage. Unsightly vacant
lots are q nuisance, and the effect Of
vacant lots which are used as dumping
grounds are denaoralizing to d neigh
borhood, from a sanitary and scien-
tific standpoint. .-s: &.z'-. .:-.... -
''2-% Moral DEVELOPMENT ::
Another very inpirtant point in con-
nection with the school garden is the
fact that 1t furnishes an opportunity
for the PHYSICAL and moral develop
ment, as we'll, as the mental develop
ment of a person to the greatest ex-
tent. Many children are injured
in our schoolroo1ns by unionterruptei
study. The establishment Of school
garden has, + believe, In no instance
ever prevented the pupils from going
through the required curriculum al
ready existing in the public schools.
In factt, where school gardens have
been more rapid In mental, moral and
physical development than those not
having them. - What greater argu-
ments can anyone advance in favor of
a. school gardeh?. r.: .',:'-; = ::&,'i

Four National engineering socie-
ties, having a membership of 10000
distributed throughout the country,
have undertaken to forward the
movement to conserve the natural re-
sources of this country, which are
1.-THE means of life and welfare
soil, waters, minerals and forests.
These societies believe that adapting
the forces of nature to the use Of man
is engineering, and the problem Of
conserving them a duty of the engi-
neer.
Holding to this view, the different
engineering societies are. represented
in the National Conservation Conn
mission, and each separate society
maintains a Conservation Committee.

allowing for the annual waste of all
