Quarter: "It was built originally
by the French, destroyed by the
British, rebuilt by the Spanish,
permitted to deteriorate by the
natives, refinanced by the Jew,
and nurtured by the present day

French Quarter are governed by
the Vieux Carre Commission,
which approves any and all build
ing changes. If building is dis
mantled, it must be rebuilt with
the same exterior as the old
building but the interior may be
improved. In this manner, the
quaint and exotic French architec-

"Nerves" Common in
Rural Children

About one-fifth of rural school
children in the first grade display
a combination of nervous difficult
ties often Indicative of poor men,
tai health, states A. r. Mangus,
of the Department of Rural Eco
nomics and Rural Sociology of the
Ohio Agricultural Experiment Sta
tion after study in one western
Ohio county. Prevalence of nerv-
Gus traits indicates the widespread
need for remedial and preventive
mental health programs in rural
school and communities.
Health research interviews were
recently arranged with 543 first
graders in the rural schools of one
Ohio county. A major purpose
Of the interviews was to find out
how prevalent q selected group
of eight nervous traits We're
among these young children. 1t
was found that "a per cent Of the
boys and 15 per cent OF the girls
were troubled by at least four of
the selected traits. Only Fl per
cent were entirely free from all
eight of them.
Prevalence of separate nervous
symptoms varied with the type of
symptom. Most prevalent was
fingernail biting, a habit found in
46 per cent of the children. About
Sc per cent reported 70 frequent
colds, 80 per cent experienced un-
due tiredness, and 26 per cent re-
ported frequent bad dreams. 9th
ers had difficulty getting to sleep
at night, and had frequent eye
pain, illness, and crying without
apparent cause.
Prevalence of such nervous
traits may result from physical
causes, concludes Mangus, and
more often perhaps stem from un-
derlying emotional tensions and
unmet mental health needs.
