dig out a links for themselves. They
made three holes and induced some
fellow townsmen to try their luck

CHILD DEVELOPS
 WITH REGULARITY
Yale Professor Explains Various
 Phases

New Haven, Dec. 30 LE) -- The development of child during the first five years of his life is more important, with reference to his m ental condition in later years than any other aqual period between the ages of five and 24. in the opinion of Professor Arnold Gesell, director of physiology at Yale university. Prof. Gesell, who is professor of child hygiene, today told of the ex- perimental work being conducted at Yale.
 Red blocks are used in one test of the reaction of the child at ten different age levels. At the age of one month, Prof. Gesell pointed out, the child does not heed the blocks. At three months he gives slight at tention to them. At six months he will take hold of one. At nine months he is able to give attention sufficiently long to take hold of two blocks. At twelve months, with two blocks in his hands, he will endeavor to take hold of third with his teeth At IS months he is able to erect a column of several blocks one on top of the other. At two years he can take three blocks and make a bridge At three four and five years of age he is able to do the tasks requiring greater skill and concentration with the blocks.
