Peter Rabbits little " hte baby
certainly was odd. and his brothers
and sisters thought him queer. If
Peter himself thought he was queer,
he wouldn't admit it. AS for Little
Mrs. Peter. she said he was a dar-

But very early Whitley, for that
was what they called him, discover
ed that being unlike his brothers
and sisters was far from pleasant.
They seemed to think that just be-
cause his coat was all white and his
eyes were pink, that he didn't be-
long with them. Even when all the
babies We're very small. the others
would try to crowd him out of the
nest. When they We're big enough
to begin to play about q little, they
wouldn't play with Whitley. He was
left out OF all the fun. And il WAS
all because he wasn't like the 9TH
ers in appearance.
Now. in all but his coat and the
color of his EYES, he was Just Ike

birth of the retarded or mentally de-
fective child is APPARENTLY of little
significance. according to findings
announced by DR.. Nei. a. Dayton of
the Massachusetts depa rtment Of
mental diseases.
His survey has included 1lo,455
retarded children in the public
schools of Massachusetts to test
theories on order of Dirt and size
W families. 1t has shown that fam
! lilies with Il mentally detective child
tend 10 be larger than families hav-
ing retarded child. Both groups
are slightly larger than families in
the general population. The obser-
walton also WAS made that complet-
Cd families with d retarted or mem

proAmately three times as many
children as completed families Wit h

There are now l. travelling elm
les operating under the depart ment

schools and examine all children
no are backward IN their classes.
The survey. DR.. Dayton announc-
ed. is being used 10 test these theo-
ri"s: that the mentally defective
child tends TO be the first born OF
