One of the most complete ‘ltudies in child development in North America has been com- piled by the Gesell Institute and generally, three groups are noted. 1) Those who grow and develop in a neat and orderly iashlon. 2) A mask of pattern 1) shown by quiet, withdrawn, or noisy, lively action, 3) A jumble of many stages. During the school age period, when sudden .Ipurts of growth are noted, annoying traits such as careless- ness or clumsiness can be the result of actual lack of control. During stages of physical live- liness, an opportunity and place for expression and outlet is most desirable. Hobbies can be encouraged as the school-age child goes through a time of‘ testing and experimenting. Feed- ing this interest is very import- Int and this will undoubtedly help in school work and the world in general. __..., u"... cu»; vvuuLCu u about next week. along their views on the pre comments.

This government-approved pol- icy allows him to use income tax savings to build up pension for his retirement.
