Of course]: employers are not keen about work- ers who have to have a few days in bed every few weeks, but the work- er who comes to the office half sick every now and then does not stir them to enthusiasm efther, The fact of the matter is that business men want healthy employ- ers, Most colds and practically all attacks of indigestion are due to earelessness, In very few cases fis there any excuse for not getting enough sleep. If you want to be a valued worker, focus your attention on' keeping fit.

"Why has our party ignored this matter?" he asked, "Why has the Young Communist League not car.) ried on an active campaign against, religion? Why have the trade unions done nothing to combat the growth, of religion?" If Communist leaders think reli- gion is a dead issue in the Soviet Union, they are niistaken, said Mr. Yarovslavsky~ "Is religion not a real force when there are 100,000 active churches in Russia, each with an active group of members?" he asks.

The personality problems of child- hood are in too many eases poorly handled in homes and schools today, according to observations by the National Committee for Mental Hygiene. As a result, it reports, weaknesses that might be corrected are sometimes aggravated until in later life they develop into important| handicaps or, in extreme cases, into serious ailments, This problem is now to be studied | by the committee, especially as it applies to the selection and train. ing of teachers, Funds have been supplied: for a preliminary year's work by the Carnegie Corporation. The investigation has been projected in| the belief that co-operation be- tween mental hygiene specialists and ways of correcting conditions that are unfavorable to children's mental health. . It will be carried on under the di- rection of an educator, with asso- ciateq psychiatrists who have spe-, cialized in child guidance. PRESENT SCIENTIFIC OPINION "Noteworthy advances have been made during recent years in gain- tal maladjustment. Valuable con- tributions in regard to these prob- lems have been made by child-guid- ance clinics, "Taboratory nursery schools, college mental hygiene clinics and. through psychiatric and psychological studies, These inves- tigations are furnishing us with data concerning the factors that are important in personality devel: opment: data' that can be used with. advantage in. formulating tive programs. preven- "We now possess scientific evi- dence to warrant the conclusion that many mental disabilities havel their origin in childhood and have been aggravated by conditions and practices in the school and home, such, for instance, as mishandling of what seemed to be minor beha- vior and emotional problems; lack of opportunities. for the develop- ment of avocational interests and skills; lack of understanding of child nature and the requisites for mental health on the part of guard- ians; unwholesome attitudes of teachers and parents, and others. MISTAKES IN REARING "It 'can be said that psychiatric studies of maladjustment have re- vealed, in striking fashion, factors in child rearing that have been con- ducive to mental ill health. And from this experience leads are pro- vided for the prevention of disabili- ties by devising ways of avoiding mistakes that have been prevalent In the past. "Unquestionably the time has come when educators and specialists in mental hygiene should collaborate in formulating a program for conserv- ing mental health, "Fortunately, there is a growing interest on the part of educators in mental hygiene work and activities. A number of recognized leaders have recently expressed the opinion that education should combine with its cultural aims the objective of con- serving mental health. These men are desirous of taking advantage of psychiatric knowledge and experi- ence. ~ "To facilitate further collaboration between educators and psychiatrists, the National 'Committee for Mental|g Hygiene is. embarking upon- this project for the integration of mental hygiene with gducational activities. TEACHER-TRAINING SURVEY "Initial attention will be devoted to the basic problem of teacher selection and teacher training in mental hygiene, This point of at- tack is selected because it is at once urgent from the point of view of education and possible of treatment on the basis of our present know- ledge of mental hygiene, Concentrat- ion on normal schools and teacher- training colleges and schools of education is indicated because the character, attitudes and equipment of the teaching profession are of erucial "The program of work will entail such activities ag the following: A.
