Miss Helen C.. HOwes,
Psychologist, Speaks
At Library Hall

Miss Helen c. Howes. speaking be-
fore an audience of Waterville citi-
zens last evening IL Library hall
concerning Behavior in the Unad-
Justed Individual" declared that be-
fore one studies the problems of 9TH
er people one should understand ones
own problems. Miss Howes empha-
sized the necessity of healthy body
Tor happiness but she affirmed that
often times an unhealthy body might
be brought about by a mental state.
She spoke of religion as a necessity
to live properly because it fills an
instructive need.
Miss Howes expressed the hone
that the organization of a Psychol-
ogy club in this city would start a
new trend of community thinking
greatly beneftting the unadjusted
individual. She cited an instance of
a 14-year- old boy who was jailed
Tor a theft. Instead of studying the
environment of the boy the officials
sent him to the reform school to as
sociate with older boys who were
really seasoned offenders. She de-
clared that such an action by a young
boy often was caused by his envir-
onment which IL changed would
give the boy normal outlet for his
energy.
At 2.3O yesterday afternoon Miss
Howes spoke on Child Training at
the st. Marks Episcopal church and
at $50 at the same place on Social
Work" Both addresses were given
before groups of women.
