NANCY PAGE
Compare Your Budget
With the Peter Pages.
BY FLORENCE LA GANKE.

A year ago Nancy and Peter had
drawn up their first budget sheet. They
had figured it from their expenses of
the previous year. With the end of
January they were closing the second
year of home making under the firm
OF Nancy and Peter Page. What had
they accomplished? Nancy took her
figures off and compared them with a
standard budget. She knew that no
printed budget could possibly fit all
families. but she realized that after all
they furnished patterns. just as one
has cut paper pattern to fit the indi-
vidual figure, so one has to adjust

Everyday Psychology
BIZ DIR. JESSE W. sPRowLs.

Al4E,
The most interesting of all the
sciences are zoology, botany and pSy-
chology. These sciences are interesting
because they classify and attempt to
explain the observable facts Of life.
What is life? The history of human
inquiry into the nature of nature shows
that the early scientists did not hesitate
to define life.
At present an entirely different atti-
tude is assumed No competent mod
ern scientist undertakes the task that
the ancients thought SO easy. In fact,
defining life has ceased to be scien-
tific task, for the simple reason that
the ever changing forms of life. big
and little, rapid and slow. defy strict
definition. Life is a continual change,
an eternal flux of energies whose
origins lie beyond the ken of human
investigation.
But science in the modern sense of
the term does not hesitate to describe
life. New descriptions are forthcom-
ing all the time.
In a recent important paper. DR..
Austin H. Clark of the Smithsonian In
stitution in Washington. proposes an
Illuminating description of life. He
says: I'VE may consider life as the

complex carbon compounds, to increase
in bulk indefinitely in such a way and
IN such varied forms as shall enable the
increase to take place to the best adj
vantage"
AS has been said, psychology is a
life science-tfle most varied and COM
pick of them all. That which is called
mind is nothing but blanket term
for the manifold increase and variation
in forms of behavior or conduct. The
behavior or conduct, moral. immoral,
or non-moral. must be regarded as
forms of adjustment to situations. At
any given moment these adjustments
are made for the sake of what DR..
Clark calls best advantage"
If lite amounts to variation for the
sake of life-sustaining advantages. then
behavior must be the expression of the
values of life under the ever-changing
conditions of life
