is to uphold clean and just administration Of the laws and
to punish those who apparently seek to interfere with justice

citizens as to the sanctity of the courts

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DR.. C. A. L. Reed

VTS7E Ashbys. at Jones Village,
! Okla, found the keeping OF
chore cards is always an essential
part of health education, and
probably the best ways Of making
children stick faithfully to the
slow but valuable work OF forming
health habits. 1t is obviously no
good teaching facts about health
ii these facts are simply going to
be memorized and not applied to
the chiIdren's lives, and the pos
session OF chore card and the
responsibility it implies bring 4
child down to bedrock. In the
Ashbys' experience there were al
ways a few who would mark the
cards dishonesty. Some writer's
tend to underrate this propensity.
The Ashbys give an interesting
account of the way they circunl-
vented their crooked markers.
The body of the classroom was
decorated with a large sign say
ing Health Village" A number
of seats were arranged. isolated
from the rest, under q, similar
sign bearing the words muddy
Center" The chief inspector of
the class, the head pupil, was in
spected at the beginning of the
session by the instructor, and she
then inspected her assistants, one
for each row. These assistants
were appointed freshly each day,
and, after passing their own in
spectlon, they inspected the chill
dren in their respective rows.
Every one with dirty hands. UNI
clean teeth or uncombed hair was
RELOCATED to Muddy Center" and
the clean children remained in pos
session of Health Village"
AT first the disgrace of sitting
In Muddy Center" was the only
punishment of the dirty, but later
on they were ostracized. They
were set apart by themselves and
the rest of the school was for
hidden to speak to them. They
even had their intermisSions alone.
These stern methods were sue
cessful. Sometimes weeks would
pass without Muddy Center being
occupied at all. This was for the
younger children. For the higher
grades upstairs there was q sign,
This is Station DIRT, broadcast
ing a program Of carelessness.
Those who failed at inspection had
to sit at little table alone, broad
casting carelessness. Station DIRT
was as effective q cure as Muddy
Center.
There was some, opposition to the
weekly bath on which the Ashbys
insisted as one of the chores. Some
of the pupils protested that they
did not take an all-over bath all
winter. Their prejudice was event
ually overcome. One obstinate
mother had finally to confess that
the health lessons her children had
learned at school made them very
useful in looking after the younger
brothers and sisters.
Girls learned sound housework
and cleanliness at domestic art
courses and club work, and made
curtains and draperies. The boys
made swings, seesaws and gymnas-
tic apparatus and equipment for
baseball, basketball and other
games. The athletic teams had q.

An infantile character like that
is a nuisance in the home, but
it may prove to be worse than a

precipitate tragedies, even crimes.
1t may lie, cheat, betray, to es-

How often you meet them,
these people who have never
learned to think for themselves.
Nice people. honest, kind, gener-
Gus people with the best of mo-
tives but just about as useful to
society as a COB Of jelly. All
because they can't make up their
own minds.
THE TRUTH IS. THEY
HAVE NO MINDS TO MAKE
UP. All their lives they have
leaned on someone else's mind.
Mama's mind. Papa's mind. Hus-
bands mind. Not infrequently,
wifie's mind. Someone else has
always told them what to do.
Someone also has always guided
them through mazes, shielded
them from mistakes. As a con-
sequence their minds have never
developed. They are stunted, like
the pitiful bandaged feet of Chi
nese women.
Psychologists call such minds
'infantile." Baby minds in grown
bodies. In his fine book ABOUT
OURSELVES" Prof. H. A. Over
street tells of a woman with such
a. mlnu.
IT have in mind a. certain
woman who would not in any
sense be considered a case by a
neurologist, but who undoubtedly
suffers from a form of what
might he called infantilism in
normal life. She confesses that
she never approaches a new task
save with the impulse to postpone
1t. If it is to write a letter, she
will do something else first. If
1t Is to ring someone on the
phone and arrange for an engage
ment, she will decide to do it
later. If it is to make a de-
cision, she will put it off as long
as possible.
Somewhere in this woman's
childhood there was a failure in
education. An examination of
her life reveals an over-soIicitious
mother. Helen, you must not 60
