we're among the first to employ

at the New England conference on
mental hygiene in schools and col

Of 1927 more than twenty colleges
and secondary schools maintaining
psychiatric services were repre-
sented.
In the five years since the work
began at Vassar 1876 girls and six
teachers have been referred to the
psychiatrist.
Forty-four girls we're found to be
suffering from severe nervous dis
turbances; thirteen were quite i'll
with real depressions; four had
serious sex difficulties; four had
definite suicidal tendencies and
few minor difficulties that might
have led to serious trouble ii they
had not been taken in time.

students are practically the same

and nervous illness and various
types of disciplinary problems are
the principal troubles found by the
psychiatrists.
College suicides, of which SO
much has been heard in recent
years, usually may be traced to de-
pressions resulting from fear and
anxiety.
Suicidal trends, discovered in
time, put the psychiatrist on the
qui yive and he may be able to
avert a tragedy.
Perhaps the greatest hinderance
to the development of a mental
hygiene program has been a hos
tile attitude on the part of faculty
members Of colleges, according to
number of colleges questioned by
DR.. Rlchmon.
The psychiatric department must
sell itself to both faculty and
students. This it has been able to
do so successfully that in the in
stitutions where the pSychiatric de-
partment has been longest estab-
lished the faculty invariably has
almost become enthusiastic and CO.

Editor, Tirnes-It is a great joke
to see the way the officials and
papers play with the tax rates. If
the taxpayers association and civic
groups had men with a little more
nerve and common sense they would
stop the raising Of valuations on
property. The officials are glad
every time they get a chance to
raise the valuations, as it gives them
a chance to issue bonds for any pet
thing the grafters want to build.
If The Times would educate the
public to what it costs to pay the in
terest on all the bonds. they would
demand a reduction in valuations
or a change in the law on the bond
ing limit
There are too many overpaid Off
Gals now. They should cut salaries
and if the men did not ike it, let
them quit. There are hundreds who
would take the jobs at half the
salary. JACK COLLINS.

SAYS:

THIS is the season when all
n roads lead out of Rome, when
people are drifting countryward and
the talk is of flowers, fish dinners
and hooch.
Vacationing has become a real
industry. Thousands of people live
on it, while millions live for it.
Like other industries, it has be-
come organized, efficient and, there
fore, uninteresting.
Too much clock, too much time
table, too much system.
Most people go where they are
told, and most of them do what they
are told after they get there.
Only a few cling to the idea of
thinking for themselves, of taking
"a new road, not knowing or caring
what may be around the next curve.

TINE astronomers gathered here
L. regard stars as great furnaces
or machines engaged in the pro-
duction of heat and light.
In attempting to find out how
these huge machines function, the
astronomers turn to laboratory ex-
periments.
But in the stars, there are tenn
peratures and pressures far in ex-
cess of any which can be duplicated
in the laboratory.
Consequently in studying the stars,
astronomers are observing the be-
havior of chemical elements at inn
mense temperatures. Professor A.
s. Eddington of Cambridge, England.
calculates that the temperature at
the. center of a star must be about
100000 degrees.
DR.. Adams has described the in
terror of q star graphically.
The interior Of a star is mix
ture Of atoms, electrons and ether
waves in the widest state of con-
fusion he says.
THE ether waves pour out toward
the surface of the star like a great
wind. On their way they encounter
the mutilated atoms and electrons
of the closely packed gases which
tend to obstruct their progress.
They finally emerge, perhaps
after thousands of millions of years,
transformed at the lower temper
allure of the outside of the star into
the light and heat waves which the
astronomer observes"

DRoFEssOR EDDINGToN has

EBHOF ESSOR BURLINGTON has
4 also given graphic picture OF
what the interior of star is thought
to be like. He writes of the tiny
atoms which make up the gases Of
the star and the electrons of which
the atoms are composed, as follows:
"Disheveled atoms tear along at
100 miles second, their normal
array Of electrons being torn from
them in the scrimmage.
The lost electrons are speeding
100 times faster to find new resting
places. Let us follow the progress
of one Of them.
There is almost a collision as an
electron approaches an atomic nu-
clcus, but putting on speed it sweeps
around in a sharp curve. Some
tines there is slide-slip at the
curve, but the electron goes on with
increased or reduced energy.
after a thousand narrow shayes,
al! happening within a thousand
millionth of a second, the hectic
career is ended by worse side-slip
than usual.
"The electron is fairly caught ard
attached to an atom. But scarcely
has it taken up its place, when an
X-ray bursts into the atom. Suck
ing up the energy Of the ray, the
electron darts of again on its next
adventure"
Strange conditions exist in many
stars. Recent researches show that
some stars have such great pres
sures that the material in them is
compressed to the density Of solid
iron. Yet the temperature is so
high that the material behaves ex-
ectly like a gas,

Living Death

D interested in the aftermath OF
the case. Although opposed to capt.
tai punishment, I think that the
sentence of imprisonment for life Is
even less logical than execution
would have been. Here is the case
outlined in part by the Governor
of New York state:
This homicide was committed by
fairly well-educated boy Of "a,
who up to the time Of the crime
had led a respectable, decent life IN
a good home. A series OF unhappy
occurrences had brought about IN
him a depressed melanchohc state
of mind.
This is no case Of a man with
hardened criminal instinct. Though
judicially declared legally sane, this
youth can not be said to have been
in full possession of his reasoning
faculties when this homicide was
committed. 1t is clearly psyche
pathic case"

Governor Franklin Roosevelt Of

self. but failed.
The motive was established. He
was in love with the young woman,
and she had told him not to call
again. She and the members OF
her family had noticed that her
sutton seemed queer and depressed.
A remarkable feature Of the COM
mutation was that the father and
mother of the dead girl, her sisters
and brothers, joined in the appeal
to the Governor to spare the MUIR
derer's life.
1t seems to me that the members
of the family must be civilized above
the familiar herd demand for
vengeance.
The jurors who brought in YER
dict which made execution nanda-
tory were not satisfied with the
law, either. They, too, signed the
petition for mercy. Out OF such a
state of affairs it might be possible
to build up an argument against
capital punishment.
Jurors, as a rule, hate to accept
the responsibility Of sending a man
to his death, and so conviction IN
capital cases is difficult where the
verdict must be first degree" or
mot guilty"

l. There is a way dictated by
every consideration of mercy and
ordinary common sense. Naturally
the Milton HAIRLESS can not be al
lowed to run loose, but once we can
learn to make the very necessary
identification between criminality
and sickness the sentence for Milton
Harris should be precisely the same
as every other passed by a Judge
after conviction is obtained: II
sentence this prisoner to be con-
fined in state reformatory institu-
ton until such time as he shall be
adjudged cured"
You can not make a sick man well
by putting him in cell block. You
can not make a crook go straight by
herding him with his own kind.
If Milton Harris is legally sane.
then the state Of New York is lust
a shade unbalanced.

have not emerged far enough from
the old criminal custom which held
that any prisoner sane enough to
recognize his own name was sane
enough to be hanged.
Now, how does the community
propose to handle the case Of this
dangerous sick man who has muir
dered a young girl? 1t could kill
him as an unfortunate and unfit
member of society. The Governor
of a great state feels that such a
procedure is too callous. He pro-
vides life imprisonment as a sub
stitute.

MENTAL hygiene work among
1V1 college students is an interest
ing new development described by
DR.. Winifred Richmond of Wash
ington, D. c., at a recent meeting
of the American Medical Associa-
ton.
The mental hygiene movement
has grown out of the psychologist
testing methods used in the army
during the World war. AS the
enormous increase in students.
after the war brought problems
that had not existed before, COL
leges began to find that mental
tests and rating scales were useful
in advising students about their
education and their vocational
adjustment.
The departments handling this
personnel research uncovered many
problems they had not anticipated
and the psychiatrist gradually came
into the picture.

" Branches OF science hardly
known two decades ago. some Of
them even unnamed at that time,
are the ones in which the most i'm
portant discoveries will be made in
the coming years,
1t is the border-line sciences,
those that lie in between the old
established branches of science in
which the biggest advances are eX-
pected by scientists today.
This was evident here recently 8:
the convention of the American AS
Economical Society when DR.. j. S.
PlaSkett, director of the Dominion
Astronomical Observatory at Can
ada, discussed the work Of the OBJ
servatory.
For astrophysics is such a border
line science. It gets its name from
the fact that it lies midway between
astronomym and physics.
Astronomym and physics once
were almost unrelated subjects, but
by putting the two together science
has made vast strides.
Problems of the heavens have
been solved by experiments in the
laboratory. while laboratory puzzles
have yielded to solutions picked out
of the sky.
The modern point of view is one
which was summed up eXcellently
recently by DR.. Walter S. Adams OF

he called the stars huge labora-
