By Rev. E. ('. Mcl.cod. head Department

College. Marshal, Tex.
In ll'O.'l, Professor John H
Watson made a study at the University
of Chicago of the white
rat. His researches on "the rat
raised the whole subject of ar>
mal behavior to a hew technical
lev J. .
It had been the custom among
'psychologists to try to reconstruct
the consciousness of the
animal from the evidence of his
behavior. The puzzling question
to he answered is, "What does a
rat think about "
You can ask a human being to
retrospect and he can give you a
(report on his mental processes*
rut a rodent must remain a
speechless mystery.
The visious attack on some of
the leaders irt our ranks at the recent
General Conference of _ the.
"Methodist Church in Atlantic
City, New Jersey, leaves us stunned
and shocked. The average in- I
dividual is puzzled at the type ol I
mind that will debase itself in the
use of suchm a method as the
sending of poison-penpamphlcts
to the delegates and visitors of
the confcren.e. The leaders attacked
need no defense as far as
lie membership and constituency
of the church are concerned. A
reply?from thorn would dmnifv
"TtTe attack, but it certainly behooves
every loyal piethodist to
gird his loins about hi in ..and?Luprepare
To reply in no uncertain
m is to this unholy challenge.
The future welfare of the Ceiiral
Jurisdiction is at stake. The
culprit or culprits responsible foi
this criminal act must be driven
from our ranks and. into the
Courts of justic. In self-defense,
every minister of the Methodist
Chmvh must assist in repudiating
such rascality. There should tie"no
termites in the niagnificient edifice
that we hope to see erected
-m?St-r- I.otiis. We may~7iof l>e able
to follow the mental processes ol
the rodents; but they can be trapped.

The foundation for health is
laid in the- first nine months of
life a'"H earlier. Wsr can
readily see that the ch.Id who has
had good pre-natal care, has a
good foundation. The child who
eats well planned meals at regular
hours, receives the proper amount
of sleep, and plays out of
doors in the sunshine, has the best .
chance of- faying a good fotmda- lion
for future health.
We it re proud to say that our
?parents are -teaming mortr and
more, that it is health economy 1o
go to a doctor to keep their child
Ten well, rather than go to him
only to cure illness that might
have been prevented.
In September 11)311 we started!,
holding clinics at the health Kniia I
ing with thi* people of the entire
community: Iri these clinics we
weighed and measuK-d babies and
pre-school children, taught cleanliness,
gave bath demonstrations
and educational work. For the
pre-school children that were un- I
deiweight, formulas and even
diets were prescribed for by our
County Health Officer, Dr. G. C.
Bolin,. who is cooperating whole 2
heaftodly wkh our health proram.
"
Due to the inclement weather
we only had thirty babies to attend
the clinic regularlyr^TSeventy-nine
babies were . immunized against
diptheria; ninety-six children
were vaccinated against small
pox; one child received hookworm
treatment; five received treatment x
fur itch; sixteen took the typhooid 1
vaccine, and ten children who are not
on the project-had Wasser- (
nians made. g
Urine, blood pressure and diets
of seventeen- pre-natal mothers
were watched closely from these

School Health Program: Two
hundred and seventy students are f
enrolled at Mt. Zion .School, Jamison,
S. C. Each month these _
children were weighed and measured
and records were kept of
same. Every child's eyes went _
tested' and defects followed up.
Health lectures were given to all (
and health classes were held with ]
the sixth grade through the 10th
grade weekly. These health classes
were of great help' to our stu- 2
dents. The students seemed very _
interested and some of them made 1
very nice health charts. Pernell '
Douglas <5f the sixth grade won
the first prize May Day for having
made the U*st health chart.
Miss Douglas' chart consisted of *
the baby in the crib through the n
third year of life. The chart real ^
