THE question constantly Is raised
Il as to whether babies born pre-
maturely have mentalities as good
as those of infants born after the
usual time.
In recent review of the subject,
DR.. Arnold Gesell points out that
the normal time before birth is
about forty weeks, but that cases
are on record of birth with suryi-
val after twenty-four weeks.
To find out whether babies born
after six, seven or eight months de-
velop mentally as well as those born
after nine months, examinations
were made regularly on number
of such babies.
Two children born prematurely
we're studied regularly for a period
Of two years. One child at the age

It Seems
to Me
by HAYWOOD BROUN

NEW YORK, June pa child
IN psychologist in Chicago has
been making an investigation to find
out how many different ways a
child can ANNOY a parent. I
don't know whether he figures it
double if both parents are annoyed.
At any rate, he's figured out 2,124
ways
His system was to ask the CO.
operation of thirty-two persons.
Each went around with a little
notebook and kept a record for
each day. Whenever Junior got
on their nerves. they put a small
cross in the book and then sent the
details to the inquiring pSycholo-
gist.
The doctor admits that in some
cases the parents got the children
coming and going. Thus one mother
would confess her annoyance be-
cause the small boy of the house
was so dreadfully dirty and untidy,
while the father sent in the COM
plant that his young daughter was
always combing her hair and fixing
herself up II seems there's TO

Premature Babies Later in Developing

than fun-term infants during the
first year.
They average walking and talking
about six months later, and are
somewhat slower in learning to CO.
ordinate.
There are, of course, many
hazards associated with being born
prematurely, but nature seems to do
her best to enable such children to
catch up, SO that eventually they do
become equal to children born after
a normal time.
1t is interesting, in this connec-
ton, to realize that some Of the
greatest men of history were born
prematurely, including Charles OAR
win, the French philosopher Renan
and the great military leader Ma
poleon, Isaac Newton. and Voltaire.

NOVERNOR PAUL v. M'NUTT:
~ We wish hereby to file most
vigorous and emphatic protest
against your dismissing from the
state library service such persons as
Miss Henley, Miss Hazel Warren
and Director Louis J. Bailey.
The placing of state library
service in politics and dismissing
such persons as those before men
toned after years and years of
faithful and efficient work and
being responsible as Mr.. Bailey is
for the erection of the state library
and historical building is in our
minds partisan politics at its worst
and we condemn it in no uncertain
terms.
In dismissing such outstanding
persons and substituting unframed
and, in most cases, inefficient ap-
pointees, you are putting our state
library back to where it was thirty
years ago, and we protest this
practice most vigorously.

Mr.. Smith writes that he knows
of many such cases. In the first
place, as I understand the Span

maximum is $72. If Mr.. Smith
knows he is right in making such
statements as he did, he is in the
clear, but the pension department at

SILVER AND WORLD TRADE

THE American delegations proposal at
Il London for an international plan to re-
habilitate silver yet may turn out to be one
of the best ideas advanced at the world
economic conference.
The warm support given the plan by such
nations India, China, and Mexico-to say
nothing of that which comes from European
countries like Germany and Italy-indicates
the important position that silver still holds
in many parts of the world as monetary
base.
Raise silver's value, and you automatically
increase the purchasing power of vast Sec
lions of the worlds population.
With that accomplished, very substan-
tial increase in international trade could be
expected to follow.
And since a revival of international trade
is one of the prime aims of the conference,
the possibilities inherent in the silver re-
Mobilization scheme are easy 10 comprehend.

it did all last season. The Red Sox
this season are a much improved

It is easy to predict that both
the Giants and Yankees will stay
near the top for the next fortnight.
What they will do after that de-
ponds very largely upon the turn OF
affairs on Labor day, when the lead
ers in the two races are supposed
to take a commanding position over
rival clubs. Yet it may happen that
the races will be SO close that no
temporary or permanent advantage
will be gained by any club that oc-
cupies first place on that particular
day. The clubs may fight it out Just
as tenaciously during the closing
weeks of September as they do In
the closing weeks Of August, and
the fortunes of war may keep both
New York teams embroiled in red
hot finish to the first of october.
In the American League the New
York club has tougher row to
hoe than it had in 1882. It won
10 games from Boston alone on its
home ground, losing /, and won Z
games, losing 4, at Boston. To date
it has won 10 games from Boston
and lost 5. That gives it Z more
games to play with Boston this year.
