embraces great deal Of truth.
AS to that, every thoughtful and
observant person must Judge for
himself. Some OF the conclusions
recently announced by Professor
Pearson will be found by many
hard to swallow, though, II cor.
rect, they have important praO.
teal bearings, affecting millions
of people.
He is reported as affirming
that health and character are but
slightly related. and health enc
good temper practically not at
all. In a word, health IS not
governing factor Of temperament.
It is a matter Of heredity; and
temperament goes along with It.
If you want your child to be
healthy you must yourself be
healthy, and IL you are yourself
healthy your mother land father
must have beeN healthy before
you.
So, then, health is an endless
chain running down through the
family, and only accident, or in.
vasion, can introduce q weak
link. This is laying a foundation
for eugenics as a practical ele-
ment in sociology. It Is ground
on which advocates and oppO-
nents may fight to finish.
Heredity, according to Pro-
lessor Pearson. and not life in
slums and amidst deprivations, is
the chief source Of Ill health for
babies! It is the weakened consti-
tuition inherited from the under
nourished mother that stamps
the mark of early death on the
child, and not the fact that she
is unable to give 1t breast milk.
But the inability Of the mother
was itself the result of inherit
ance-so there we are again In
contact with the endless chain Of
heredity.
BY the same authority. neither
the psychic character nor the
bodily health are essentially
changed by the influences OF
school life! But this is going Gar
beyond the original claim that
the effects OF personal improve

transmissable to the offspring.
