Inc NATURAL dSSuHlpLlOIl, says III
Furfey, would be that child's char
acter would be expressed in its play.
The child who takes a doll and goes
into a corner by itself probably would
be introverted and self conscious COM
pared with the one who romped with
others in social games. But actually
nobody knows anything about the
relationship.
Will Get Exact Record.
BY the moving picture technique the
danger of false judgment by an OBJ
server will be overcome and an exact
record will be obtained which can be
checked up against the personality of
the child observed over long period in
other ways. In this way it may be
possible to secure some data on the
genesis of personality traits in chill
dren, possibly showing what happens in
play to make child forward or retiring.
Among the studies recently COM
pleted by the social service school stu
dents under DR.. Furfey's direction is
delinquency in Southwest Washington.
conducted by Miss Mary A. Riley:
Studying the delinquency records Of
this section over a considerable period
Miss Riley found definite groupings
which checked up very closely with
economic conditions.
Southwest washington is described In
the report as "a picture of what can
happen to a section where foresight in
city planning Is lacking" The survey
continues: The most southeasterly end
consists of shantieS and vacant lots with
unpaved streets and inadequate light
ing-a surprising condition to find only a
mile or so from the Capitol. North OF this
the section becomes commercial. Grad
ually the District improves Toward the
west small houses, some well kept and
others more desolate with no water or
light facilities, spread north and south:
Seventh street reaches the peak OF
business eficiency. It is analogous to
Main street of the small town. West OF
Seventh street and south of the rail-
road are small brick houses in rows,
some large homes formerly occupied by
leading men of the city. and homes on
elevations that at one time overlooked
the river. North of the railroad are
the more. economically stable. Here
the houses are owned and some fam
lilies have been established As long as
a century. The present prospect is
that the southwest will become en-
tirely commercial.
The southwest has grown in parallel
strips rather than In concentric cir
cles. Within the industrial circle the
activities are primarily in layers, first
q strip of business, then a strip of
residences, and so. on out to the
boundary of the circle"
Records Fitted Into Picture.
The delinquency records are then
fitted into this geographical picture.

in Police Court yesterday on two

She is alleged to have sold automo-
biles which belonged to her employer
before they were paid for. AS both cars
we're registered in the employers name
the defense argued that the Govern
nent had not established a prima facie
case, as there was no testimony to show
that Miss Miller knew that the cars
had not been paid for. Judge Nc
Mahon overruled the defense, saying
that, as both of the sales were identi-
cal, enough circumstantial evidence ex-
listed to hold the defendant for the
grand jury.
