When We speak of freedom for
children we do not speak of dis
orderly, noisy children without di-
rection from within or without.
We mean child freed from the
dominance of another'S mind;
freed from the bondage of author
ity that stiles that mind; freed of
ignorance and error while guided
by a sound moral code and a
standard of excellence in achieve
ment and character.
Self-activity is the basis of true
education. Its quality can be
judged by the sound in the class
room. the light in the children S
faces, the results Of their efforts.

While we might say that being
loved has nothing to do with
how one looks, yet attractive
is the bait which first
before another has the
opportunity to explore qualities
of character, mind or heart.
Over and over again we see
women who are not especially
attractive physically but who are
adored for their gaiety, tender
ness. understanding, intelligence
and love of life. This does not
mean, however, that it is fair for
the married woman, who made
every effort to be attractive to
her suitor, to settle down into
physical unattractiveness. This
does seem to be an imposition.
I am going to quote part of a
readers letter which is now on
my desk. She says:
II cannot tell you what the 20
pounds I lost and the exercises
you gave me have done for me
and for my marriage. My hus-
band is a fine man and we have
two children, ages 8 and IA.
eve haven't had lot of money
and I have done most of my own
housework and laundry and taken
care Of our children. Somehow in
the rush I allowed myself to be-
come fat and tired. I did not
care for my hair and skin as I
should have. This is so easy to
do! think maybe I neglected my
husband in important ways, too.
I lost the idea of looking pretty
for him and dressing up for him.

Why Grow Old?

IT was so fat and out of shape
that it all somehow seemed hope
less. I am sure he has always
loved me deeply but he more or
less adopted the secure but
humdrum attitude I myself had
started.
my husband became less atten-
tive and seldom seemed to want
to take me out, although he was
always considerate at home. It
all just sort of lost the romance
and sheen somehow.
after losing this weight and
cutting down my measurements
and improving my posture and
skin and hair, I took more interest
in clothes and actually look like
a different woman now. The
change in my husband is amaz-
ing! I do not know whether this
lis due to the fact that 7 am so
much better looking or whether
he appreciates the fact that I
cared enough about how I looked
for him to make the effort I did,
or whether it is because my own
attitude has changed since I look
so different. I do feel rested and
gay, young and self-confldent,
and want to swim and dance as
I did not when I was overweight.
Anyway, my husband acts
about like he did when he was
counting me-"

to this letter and there is little
more I could add anyway, but I

The experienced supervisor
knows at a glance whether the pu-
pills are learning or just putting In
time. The atmosphere of a class
room filled with children busy
about their work is as different
from that of one in which they
are engaged in doing what the
teacher ordered done as day is
from night.
The noise in the room tells him
the story. The sound of business
the pupils think is worth while is
like music to the schoolman's ears,
while the noise of disorder is ana
thema. Children engaged in a
project of their preference are
never diSorderly. but go about
their work with the same concen-
tration. the same purposeful direc-
ton, the same dignity as adults
manifest. Their whole being is
centered on the work in hand.
Not so the disorderly group. They
are not mentally active at all, but
physically active on the lowest
mental level possible.
The modern classroom is buz-
zing with activity. Every pupil is
busy and gladly so because he is
doing something that has meaning
for him. He is making his contri-
button to the work in hand. BY
and by, when the groups have
completed their different assign
ments. they will gather as a unit,
combine their experiences, each
bringing treasure to the trove, and
sum up their Investigations in a
recitation or a demonstration of
some sort.

spell. they can't behave"

First AS Child" is the story
of crippled children in general, ot
one crippled boy in particular, and
OF the public resources for aid
available to him. The picture takes
the boy, in moving and absorbing
way, from his early, tormented OBJ
servation of normal boys from a
tree he has daringly climbed, to
his return to his home after treat
ment, no longer crippled and able
to take part in the life and play OF
his contemporaries.
Young Alexander O'Neill and
his family are Arlington County
residents who actually lived
through the experiences they
portray in the film. Alexander
is helped by the State crippled
children's agency, which is as
sisted financially by Federal funds
administered by the Children
Bureau.
The philosophy behind the pro-
gram is that each patient benefits
best when he is treated first as
a child. next as a handicapped
child and finally as a child with
some specific crippling condition
The children's emotional and So
cial, as well as physical, needs are
served by the team of workers in
crippled childrens agencies.
The film, the producers explain,
is not intended to explain specific
techniques in treatment of any
illness or handicap, but rather to
show how programs for the care
of certain children work. The
picture is designed primarily to
stimulate group interest in and
discussion about community pro-
grams.

"grab-all-you-can-get" I've found.
I haven't touched any of the tax
escapes that have been discovered.
Here the American worker has
been struggling for some kind of
old age security since the 3O'S, often
management has been fighting that
security-while it has protected it.
self not merely with enough to live
on but with enough to live on lux
uriously. That is not my concept
of justice. The pension plan for
management in many companies
is definitely a part of the high cost
of management and you pay for it
in the goods you buy.
Building Costs
Earlier I discussed the high cost
Of building. Since then have been
receiving information confirming
that the calamitous prices charged
for new homes are not merely the
result of the outrageous costs of
labor, materials. and taxes.
For example, a San Francisco
carpenters study showed in the in
vestigation of labor costs of three
houses selling for $4,000 each
that labor charge amounted to
81, 800 and that included wages of
$12 a day up to $3.50 for very
skilled workers. The materials in
each of those houses did not run
4,OO0-which amounts to less than
half of the $4,000 for labor and
materials. The builder was really
getting himself a fat profit. In
fact, one of my informants writes
me that he worked with contrac-
tors who would have to clear $500
on every home they built or they
wouldn't touch it.
In Sacramento, California, Full
ers have advertised they can fur
nish all materials for a 4-room, 80
by % house with a garage for
ST ,292.
Now that the gravy train has
slowed up and people lack means
to pay $4,000 to $4,000 for struc-
lures being built-and often those
were all that were offered-may-
be now there will be a chance for
some low cost $4,000 to $4,000
housing other than by the Federal
or the State government.
When you really dig into this
high cost of living, away from all
the cliches, you discover that it has
not been the working man who has
been unconscionable in his de-
mands. Profit and the high cost
of management have contributed
nightly to our troubles.

Time was when it was believed

break him of the habit-to force
