ENVIRONMENT AND
 N0T HERED|TY That Character Depends On Surroundings Rather Than Birth Is Contention Of
 Lecturer.
AT HYGIENE CONGRESS
Care of Teeth of Children and Prop CT Methods of Ventilation Also
 Dealt With.

Washington, Sept 26.-Holding that heredity has nothing to do W tn character that $ all a matter Of en- virmonment, Dr. Charles Gilmore Korley of New York City, address the International Congress of Fly giene and DemographM.;n III session here today on the theme of "ConveTsatlon of Child Lite.
 D. Kerley has had twenty-five years experience in schildren's insti- tutions in New York and elsewhere and lis strong vews, strongly eX- pressed were listened to with rapt at- tention
 He said he had watched the careers Of hundreds of orphaas of lowly birth who has been sent into the world and they had risen or fallen accord ng to the;r environment
 We may mold child largely as we will" said the doctor. And the IdSI-GH HS diu llIC Ni'Nt 'S' t be Gone well, indifferently or ba lily depends more upon the mcldeT and the ehildren.s associations than upon the material worked upon.
 He said he agreed absolutely With the person who declared that ii two infants" one born n a palace and che in a hcvel both in fair physical condit on were exchanged on the day of birth. each would work out n destiny along the lines of hls envlroh- men, The child of the hovel would grow up to the palace and the OIL spring of the palace would remain m the level of the howell"
 "Charac;ers indicates the individu- al," declared the doctor. "Heredlty has but little influence in determining character. Character above all things else is the product of env ronment
 Another bold stand taken by Dr. Kerley was the prop0 sitn that the State, though commiss on. shculd knew aud have authority over every child in the state. Tt $ only by such meals that We will ever solve many of the urgent problems before us," he declared.
 This would be far better way, he thought, than the spending ct millions every year for the segrega- tor Of CT minals, drunkards, paupers and Gegenerases.
 Factory Workers.
 In discussing the different problem of infant morality n relation 10 fac tory work bef1re the Internat oeal Congress of Hygiene and Demography in sassien here today, Dr. John Rob- er;son, Medical Officer of Health, B rmingham, Englal d. stated that the rate of infant deaths among the off spr ng of women who work in fac tories was twenty per cent grsater than among the children of mothers who do not work in factories.
 ryet," he said, these women are obliged to woFi in order to keep the family above tfe abject poverty he. Now the question is whether it is better fer these mothers to go to work withstanding some damags to the infants, or to stay at home and rece ye the damage done by poverty?
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1912-09-27

In the special area under review tBirmingham) added the doctor there appears to be no dQubt about the rejudic al influence of employ ment of pregnant and nurs ng moth CTS .n factories, both on their infants and on themselves. But poverty has a much more deleterious influence, and, if by employment poverty can be removed or lessened such employment is the lesser by far of the two evils
 The same subject was discussed by Dr. George Reld, Medical Off cer of Health, Staftordshire County, Eng land
 He agreed with his colleague that there was no doubt that the death rate among the infants of factory working mothers was much greater than among the infants of non-fae- tory work ng women. But he placed the difference at 43 per cent, at least for Staffordshlre County.
 He attributed this to the fact that infants of factory work ng mothers are not fed naturally, and thus have poorer chance to survive.
 Children's Teeth
 The V tai necessity fer properly caring for the teeth of school child ren vas discussed before the Con- gress by Dr. w. G. Elbersolo, ol Clev1 land, Oh 10 and pr. William II. Potte. of Boston.
 "Ia introducing the mouth to you, sa q the former, we wish to state, that ;s we find it today. the mouth IS the most neglected and ill-kept or gan of the human body It 5 the prill- cipal harbnger of mi! co-organlc life. and 1t is the path tlr2ush Whica most of t.ese organ sms enter into the nGman system.
 "DGn, a Gar Cs," cCnc.uded Dr. ,a . bers ]c," is the mos prevalent di- saasa knowE to modern civilization.
 pr. Potter said,'' sound teeth are ment and up-building of the body and it's fertilization against d sease is to be secured
 He added that chidren's tee'h shoald be carefully guarded uEtll they lad passed the twenfth year
 Ventilation.
 "The New Art of Ventilat on'' was the subject Of a9 address delivered to the lels ga es by Pref. C. E. A. Win slow cf the College of New York City
 Pl.of.: W.nslow said in part:
 "The widespread dissat sfaction with artificial ventilat on systems is due Il large part to the fact that il l the .rast such systems have beer designed On wrong prime pies and il l accord with ancient and dlscreditet theories of the object of vent lation
 ''The ord nary plan of letting fresf warm air in al the top and taking old air out at the bottom is bound to l fail just as soon as the rooh become! l heated by human Occupacy up to tho l temperature of the incoming air, tha S, t breaks down just when mes needed. The new type of ventilation which $ in accord With physsiolc gica knoWledge, calls for a separate dl rect heat ng system to warm the loom when it becomes too cold an( constant supply of cool air iron below becomes too hot. With proper i ly arranged fresh air inlets of this 1 sort and plenty of them, any room l can be kept comfortable, and We neet despair of ventilating and go bacl to crude window ventilation of tn, older days.
 "In warm weather art ficial cool | ing Cf the air is practical and no prohibitively costly and there is nt reason why hospitals. hotels ant aud tcriums should not be made a agre cable in summer as in winter.

FOR speeaier IspewrItins.

The latest development lin connec-
town with the typewriter Is machine
to print ~yllables Of two and three lot
tels by single pressure of the key.
THIS invention calls for no especial skill
on The part Of the operator. There Is
the ordinary standard keyboad, but the
keys eau be extended to sixty or more.
The two-letter syllaoles include the
following: Be, an, CHI, de, ed, is, I'M no
st, un; aud among the three-Ietier has,
the, our, for, may, not, hay, con, com,
ing, acc, dis, pro. When the operator
has become ussd 10 The position OF the
syllables, aud has memorlzed them IL
is expected that Is pug will be more
rapid process. For instance for the
saceountanti II is only necessary to
depres four Keys instead Of ten, as on
an ordinary mschine; 'disunion" Is
written by means Of three keysinstead
OF eight; ''uiistortunev aud "permis-
SION also require only four keys each.
The machine possesses unique paw
and escspemenl wheel, SO arranged
that when asyilable key is depressed
the carriage 'jdm PSI space equal In
length to the 81 liable. The type strikes
the ribbon through a metal guide thus
ensuring perfect alignment. Adding
machines have already been combined
with typewriters and apparently we
are to expect compounding of attach
ments, in the universal desire to pro-
duce speedier machines.
