Influence OF
Comics Studied
By Professor

When the iratc wife of the comic
supplement breaks vase over her
husband S head, is the situation
funny
Professor c. f. Rugh' of the Edu-
cation department of the University
of California answers an emphatic
" "No.' Taking exception to the
statement made by Or. Garry G..
Myers. Il lecturer in child psvchol-
ogy who claims the comics are 'uni,
vcrsal play and as such are a val,
liable factor in child education, he
says:
"In the current social confusion
we seem to have lost any desire to
develop standards or crltcria for
discrimination; our comic supple
mcnts and our motion picture come
dies are simply examples of tins.
The worst aspect of the traditional
comic attitude is its wrong view of
scx and social relations. Fortun-
atcly, life is not nearly as vulgar as
ii is pictured; and this Willingness
to be amused bv the discontinue
and mistakes of others is humor of
4 very bad sort.
One of the biggest problems fac
ing educators today, according to
Professor Rugh, is the necessity of
developing standards OF humor
among Young people. This might
we'll be done by y study Of funny
papers and slapstick comedy, with
view to keeping the humorous clc.
rpcnts and eliminating the mistaken
humor, he says.
at is the interesting capacity of
an i.dividual to draw the line he.
'wccn Wit and humor, and to differ.
rntiatc between IA type of hnmor
which is Il release from the world
and one which rrofan"s things a
real value. which makes him a per
SON with a sense of humor or one
with Il warped perspective, Pro.
tcssor Rugh concludes.

DiSabslSe
YOUR mind

-of the thought that ROMAN MEAL.
the Happy Medium" in cereals, is a
coarse bran product with merely medi-
einal and regulative properties.
1t is a whole grain product OF wheat
and rye. just little bran is used too,
and with it wonderful Flaxose, splen-
did food in itself and excellent lubri-
cant for the bran.
Roman Meal is delicious food, nour-
ishing and refreshingly different, wheth-
er served as the children's breakfast
cereal, or in rnufHns or nut bread, or as
. luncheon treat which you will be
proud to serve your friends.
Because OF the startling lack of coarse,
uncooked foods in our diet something
more is necessary 10 keep the body in
that harmoniously vigorous, smoothly
functioning conoition-and that "sone-
thing more" is Roman Meal Every
family should have II every day some
