The ploneer spirit is no more dead in America than are many other American institutions that the pessi- mists would like to have us believe have vanished from the earth. Only, with the disappearance of the fron: in pediatrics at the Harvard Medical School on her return {rom England, and that culminated in the accept- ance of a position as fleld investi- gator in the division of child hygiene of the United States Public Health Service. In the years from 1920 to 1924 she traveled tthrough the States of Missouri, Nevada and Utah, gath- ering statistics and giving out infor- mation to those who needed it. When the State agencies asked for her co- operation she gave it as part of her routine. In Missouri she organized the children’s division of the State hoard of health, and in the other two States she co-operated in putting child welfare activities on a Statewide basis. o But in 1924 she married and went to San Francisco again to live. That, howe did not mean throwing her carecr overhoard. Once more she went back to a university to study-—this time to California—taking special courses in child school and mental hyglene and carrying on child hygiene clinics at the Children's Hospital in San Francisco and a feeding clinic at the baby welfare statfon of the American Association of University Women. Last year she was called to the Chil- dren’s Burenu, and here she is finding her most interesting work. hecause of the scope possible in Federal agencies. | Here she is hating a long-hope-for op- [ portunity for research and_infancy problems.

There was very little those eves of hers missed, very iittle. indeed. It a membaer of the Hawk family came salling over during the day, she was sure to be the first of the Muskrat children to see it. It in the dusk Hooty the Owl came sailing over the Smiling Pool, the chances were that Little Miss Brightey would be the one to give the alarm, if Jerry Musk- rat or Mother Muskrat had not al- ready done s0. Sometimes they would not give the alarm aignal when they felt sure that Hooty didn’t see any of the children, They would wait to see which one of the children would he the firat to discover the danger.

The minds of different races work differently, due largely to a different grammar and vocabulary rather than any fundamental difference in brain structure.
