President Endorses
The Seal Sale
Increased Effort Needed To
Eliminate Tuburculosis---
Buy Christmas Seals

Increased effort is needed to elm
mate tuberculosis from this country,
President Roosevelt declared In his
proclamation endorsing Christmas
Seals. The sale Of seals commenced
on Thanksgiving Day throughout the
United States, Alaska, Hawaii, and
Puerto Rico and will continue until
Christmas Day. More than 1000
state, county and city tuberculosis
associations throughout the country
are supported by the income from
the seals.
The President in his endorsement
states that for thirty years funds
from the annual sale of these well
known harbingers of health, have
been used in the nationwide camp
align to cure and prevent tuberculosis.
Under the leadership of the Ma
tional tuberculosis Association, state
and local societies and committees
in all parts of the United States con-
duct organized health programs in
all the communities in which the
seals are sold. Free clinics, nursing
service. tuberculin testing, X-raying,
rehabilitation, medical and social re-
search are among the health protec-
ton measures that Christmas Seals
help to support. This splendid SER
vice must be continued without cur
tailment.
1--WE must wage with increased
vigor our fight to eliminate this
plague as one of the greatest foes to
health. We must not in any way
abate the fight against SO appalling
a scourge which claims very large
number of it's victims from our
young people between the ages of
fifteen and thirty. A renewed and in
tensi1ed program must be put into
effect. Attention must be focused to
protect the health Of our young men
and colleges or among skilled or un-
skilled industrial workers. We must
guard with the utmost vigilance the
health of all.
''The aid of every American is
needed in this cause. tuberculosis is
everybody's problem. l therefore
urge all to do their part generously
in supporting the thirty-frst annual
Christmas Seal sale to be carried on
between Thanksgiving and Christ
mas"
1t is still too early to make any re-
ports on the sale. The weekly totals
for the various counties have not as
yet been announced by the various
chairmen, but hopes are high as the
mail continues to come in to the diff
ferent Christmas Seal headquarters.
The tuberculosis clinics for the
counties of the state have been
scheduled for the month of December
and the announcements have been
sent. Nineteen clinics have been plan
ned, These clinics are made possible
through the purchase of Christmas
Seals by the people of the county in
which they are held.

After that, things went better.
 Tn recording the quints' progress, the psychologists divided their his- tory into two periods-and e com. parison of the two Is interesting.
 It shows that the quints behave much better now than they were be- having a year ago. The children do far less quarreling when playing together; they behave better ct the table, make less fuss when going to bed.
 Soon Caught On
 On incident shows how keen these five sisters are about things. It happened about e year ago, when 1t was discovered that more cases of disobendience were cropping out during the outdoor play period than in any other part of the routine. Since this period does not ordinarily produce much trouble, the psychol- ogists were puzzled. At last they got the answer.
 During the outdoor play period, the children, unknown to theni- selves, were on display before the public. The public liked to see all Ave girls together. If one were ab- sent, tourists would express doubt that there were really were five of them. Hence the nurses had be. come reluctant to discipline Q child. through Isolation, during that period.
 The qulnts didn't know the reason for 1t, but they soon caught on to the fact that at this particular time they could break the law with impunity.
 Restoration of strict discipline during the outdoor play period soon ended that.
 Tn general, the quints play to- gether very well and have few quarrels. As in any group Of chil- dren, of course, there are occasional spats-but they usually end with the two disputants sitting down calmly and playing together.
 A healthy attitude of adventure is being developed in the quints' play. The psychologists have testi- fled that 1t is surprising how little the quints notice the stumblings, fallings and bumpings that are . part of all outdoor play for children. Dr. Blatz's theory b that adults in general should interfere in such ace tivities "only to prevent homicide Or suicide" carefully avoiding u1- necessary interference in situations that children can solve for them selves.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-11-05

seldom get angry and obey the rules as well as 3-year-olds could be ex- pected to obey them, 1t can be seen that their training Is progressing satisfactorily.
 How will 1t go in the future? The psychologists report concludes with these words:
 Tt is too early to prognosticate the development of the control of fear in these five children, because of their unusual environment. At
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-11-05

good part of Marie's trouble Is due to the fact that she Is still the baby of the group; Al per cent of her non compliance is simply crying. She offers actual physical resist ance to authority less than any of her sisters.
 Annette, then, is Q non -confornist who is canny enough to break rules that don't carry a penalty. She'll say "No"-but If you say, "Oh, come on," she'll usually come. Emile, on the other hand, does not say NO" unless she means 1t. When she does say 1t she sticks to 1t.
 It Depends Upon Her
 The advantage of the discipline by-isolation method Is that 1t makes learning possible. When a quint Is isolated, she has @ chance to con- slider whether she would rather be alone or with the other four. The length of her isolation depends en- tirely on her. If she wants to spend the remainder of the play period In the isolated room, no adult interferes; If she wants to come back and behave, she Is welcomed.
 When the childtraining experts set up their routine, the first rule was-"Let 'em cry" The quints, uylon y,ara isad ta pattinp instant at- tention when they cried, and set out at once to see whether they had more endurance than the nurses. There were times when the nursery fairly rang with the sound of wailing-one child once cried for & solid hour-but before long the quints found out who was boss.
