full Factor in Life Than
Environment

No subject, since the evolution
business was partly tl1reshed out
last summer, apparently has gripped
Washington SO tightly as the theme
or heredity VS.. environment which
readers Of this newspaper have
been asked to discuss informally.
The thought has commanded tho
attention of higher minds and
mediocre minds as we'll, and il the
opposite types OF mentality didn't
give their full views the matter
might well be said to have been only
rarity settled.
The Washington Times wants to
know how you feel about the effect
OF inherited qualities upon your
career as against The effect OF your
environments on your lives In
fact, it is anxious to get your view
point and Is offering az an incen-
tive copy of the greatest current
book on the subject Of heredity,
Harold Bell Wright's "A Son of
His Father" for the best expe-
rience related to 1t in letter form
day to day.
Teaeher Has Won Book
The first winncr Of such 4 book
Is teacher in one Of Washington y
graded schools.
Furthermore, the winner Is a
woman and she bases her concIu-
sions on the fact that she has
guided many young minds along
their ways and feels that she is
qualified to be heard. She has OBJ
served minutelyn the responsiveness
Of these young minds, the offspring
Of all types Of fathers and moth

tains to our children and 70 our

The Washington times., 1925-12-09

Now that we all know each
other let us have Miss Lanbaise' 8
conclusions in her own words, as
written to the Heredity Editor:
Her Views
Says Mise Lambaise:
"The part which hereditu plays
IN moIding the life Of a human
being is VitGlly interesting to me.
Since 7 am teacher IN the public
schools of Washington 1 come IN
close contact Nth VGriOus types
of people. Necessarily I must be
an Observer of human nature.
"As glance oUer the register
o. my pupils I find that BObbie's
father is an engineer.
'eBobbie, of course, does not
shoW any tendency TOWARD en-
cheering, bat he has a steady,
keen and alert mind. He reasons
| through a problem IN the most
logical and efficient manner, thus
Indicating that the characteristics
i Of the tho are decidedly alike.
Here is little Tom. HIS father
is a bricklnyer. This child can
not reason clearly; he cannot solUe
the simplest Of problems. GiVe
him the type of work IN which he
uses has hands and gerry little
mental effort is required, the
child Wiu do good aOork. Nat
urGlly the characteristics of his
father skow up; namely, that of a
loboring man, skitfut IN the use
of his hands.
"Mary's mother is dressmaker.
This little girl responds quickly
during lessons an (which art, de-
sign, and construction play the
most important part. No doubt
this child has inherited the artistic
ability of her mother.
"Are we teachers discouraged
because of these facts? No, be-
cao,se We striUe to help the chill
dren overcome the tendencies
mhich are detriment to their
nature and develop those traits
nhich are desirable, noble, and
(which lead toeUGrd better citizen
ship"
What DO YOu Think
Do you agree with Miss Lannbaise
or do you feel that she has under
stated or overstated her case"
Whichever you think, or if you
have an entirely different line Of
reasoning, by all means give the
public the advantage of lit and per.
chance be the next winner of a
copv of Hrold Bell Wright's novel
treatise on heredity, entitled, "a Son
of His Father" Address your cor
respondence TO the Haredity Editor
