Successful School Children Experiment

The sympathy and charity of the
world goes out to the suffering, the
physically deformed, the mentally af-
fiicted, but it is only of late years that
this has been wisely extended in the
most proper direction, so as to furnish
medical examination and training to
the growing school child. Perhaps one
of the most notable examples of this
kind is seen in the action Of the prin-
cipal of one of the large public schools
in Boston during the past year.
Noting that certain children in DIFF
ferert classes were frequently absent
on account Of illness, were poorly de-
veloped, underweight and backward in
their studies, an outdoor school room
was fitted up in a somewhat cheltered
corner of the school yard, in the fresh
air and sunlight, and during pleasant
weather the regular work Of the class
room was carried on under a special
assistant.
In addition to the change to the open
air, the children were supplied each day
at recess. both morning and afternoon,
with a glass Of Horlick's matted milk,
hot, and as the result Of the fresh air
and the hot food-drink the experiment
proved a marvellous success--a phe-
nomenal Improvement in the condition
Of the children at once began. The
children were brighter, the eyes and
complexion were clearer, and the av-
erage gain in weight in month was
over three pounds for the whole class
several showing a gain of ten and
eleven pounds. orc
In addition, the regular teachers
noted with much surprise the sudden
gain in mental alertness, interest and
voluntary effort Of these formerly back
ward children. We can appreciate the
great influence of purer air and a rich.
nourishing diet upon the mentality OF
the children. which delighted and sur
prised the principal and school physi-
clan, who advised the trial.

BETTER, THAN SPANKING
