CTS Cor connivers) who try to break their traces.
 The most unhappy one of all is the boy, or girl, who started out in life with a full quota of self-as- surance and self-reliance. The most content are those who had little pluck in their makeup from baby hood.
 As usual there is no real cleav- age between the pliant child and the high-spirited one. There are thousand grades in between But I think it safe to say that any child is unhappy under too stern or inflexible rule.
 Completely Deflated
 It becomes a sort of fatalism. This is different from accept ance," because the latter keeps courage in reserve. The truly brok- en spirit is drained of everything. There is little hope, then, of such a child, or adult, ever pulling him. self up by his own bootstraps. He is satisfied to be told, to be directed, to drowse in his own lethargy.
 The overly -bossed child, as say, may put up resistance, but according to cil 5umstanceS or his nature he may give in eventual ly. When this happens we have a dependent for life. Accustomed to being led, he can't strike out for himself. He waits for some thing to turn up, like Micawber.
 Whatever we do with a child, the one thing that is crime above all others is to cheat him of his birthright. He has to submit to rule, more or less, but he should be allowed to keep his per- sonality with it.
 Life is meant to be lived, to be struggled for, to be enjoyed, to be attempted. The child with a really defeated spirit won't care enough to try. The mentally listless child is grand proving ground for oddities of conduct. We cannot kill normal urges without something taking their place.
 I suppose that comparatively speaking there are few really broken spirited children. But there are armies of unhappy ones who are close to it.
 The child who is perpetually pounded into submission, over worked, disciplined, crushed under strong personalities around him with relief, will lose his spirit. Then some day, in some way, the state may have another ward.
