DON T CALL THE
CHILDREN LAZY

According TO an emphatic
statement made by Or. Laum-
onier, a famous French physi
clan, laziness in young people
is form of disease, and should
be recognized as such by par
ents and others in charge of
boys and girls.
What Is known as laziness at
school, he says, is very often
nothing but the manifestations
Of "a morbid state Of health, and
such children should not be
punished, but treated as in
yahds. Dir. Laumonier traces
the complaint TO hereditary
causes. OF p lazy school child
rem he found that - had par
ents suffering from obesity.
govt, diabetes, arterial selerOsis
or nervous troubles. He asserts
that slugglshness ip various
forms rs transmitted to the of
spring as the result of maladies
from which the parents suffered.
Such children, he says,
need more than the usual share
OF fresh air, suitable exercise
and careful supervision. Often,
of course, an unsuitable diet
affects child's power of appli-
cation. Unfortunately children
are often punished for wilful
laziness when malnutrition or
indigestion is the true cause of
their inertia.
Children who snore at night
and whose sleep is troubled are

Laamonier appeals 10 parents
TO study their children's diges-
ton and breathing before blam
ing them for Iaziness.
