There is, no doubt considerable

at times it seems to break down. This
fiscal year. now drawing to close,
shows very little automatic adjust

CHILD STUDY AND APE STUDY

The proper study of mankind is

and psychologist is reported as saving
that the proper study OF mankind is
1.-THE ape.
We know so little about our in
stincts. and about child mind and
fundamental family relations. accord
ing to this sayant that systematic
study OF the wild apes would throw
much light on our own natures.
A curious notion, this. II is on 4
part with the notion that in order TO
understand the civilized man in all
his complex relations We must study
the primitive savage Both notions
are held to be fallacious by sound
thinkers. The way to understand civ
ilized man is 10 study him-studr him
in politics, industry. social life.
amusement and play. We may have
to study him long. and under many
conditions. but there's no short cut to
knowledge OF him We must live
with him. y ork with him, trade ana
fight with him, TO understand him.
The way to know the child is to
observe and study the child at home.
in school, a play Observation and
experience furnish the data Of science
and lead to congratulations The
remedy for the mistakes of observa-
