Speaking at last nights session,
DR.. Vernon Kellogg, permanent sec

formative factors which contributed
toward making the child either nor

"Heredity and environment should
not be looked on as antipathetic, but
as complementary, he said. Innate
capacity Is primarily determined by
heredity; the degree to which this
capacity may be used Is largely de-
termined by environment. whether
inherited capacity is small or large,
proper environment and opportunity
are necessary for its best use"
DIR. w. w. Peter, who has been en-
gagged in health work in China, ex-
pressed the appreciation of that
country for the leadership found in
America. He thought the best means
of promoting education in health was
to put health teaching and practices
