Chicago.--Junior may lack poise all his lifetime just because his nursery chair had a short leg. An ugly dresser may spell the difference between his ability or inability to appreciate things artistic. The importance of a child's early environment cannot be stressed too greatly, a recent psychological survey made by furniture leaders indicates. Influences impressed on children in their early years in the nursery definitely result jn a corresponding personality or character pattern in later life, the survey states. "Give me a new born child and in ten years' time ! can have him so scared, he'll never dare to lift his voice a bow a whisper, or so brave that he'll fear nothing," declared Dr. George A. Dorsey recently- In complete agreement with this statement, the survey points out, investigators visited hundreds of nurseries throughout^the nation to determine as far as they might the effect of nursery furniture on the child of ten years or younger. "A drab, careless, or ugly outlook in the nursery," the survey says, "is bound to have unfortunate effects on its tiny occupants. Nyrsery furniture should be in harmony with a child's carefree, happy life." In keeping with that idea, the 1938 trend in furniture for children embodies the whims of infancy with the practicality of age, while, in many cases, at the same time producing a definite educational effect. There is, for example, the "Pilgrim" type of furniture, built simply and without embellishment. The effect .obtained here is toward simplicity and individualism. Another furniture style cleverly, woven into the realm of child lore deals with the stars, the heavens, floral vegetation, and water; a Treasure Island ensemble gives the idea of romance and adventure. "The spirit of childhood," states the survey, "should be the guiding influence in furnishing a room for a child. However, some children develop an astonishing sophistication at an early age and for some reason refuse to accept nursery rhymes and lullaby stories as part of their own little world." The designers have given consideration even to this phase of child psychology, tempering severity with/youthful appeal,.as in the case of jfnodern youth furniture. No Doubt About It Father was sitting in the armchair one evening when his little son came in and showed him a new penknife which he said he had found in the street. "Are you sure it was lost?" inquired the father. "Of course it was lost! I saw the man looking for it!" replied the youngster.--Royal Arcanum Bulletin. itamin A at Wheel III Recommended for Safety Milwaukee.--Dr. Henry T. Scott, director of biological research for the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation, believes many automobile accidents are caused by poof' vision due to a Vitamin A deficiency. Some day, Dr. Spott says, driving tests will be made to determine whether motorists are consuming enough food that contains adequate Vitamin A to combat irregularities of vision. "Tests have demonstrated," Dr. Scott explains, "that between 16 and 24 per cent of the. adult population is suffering from Vitamin A deficiency. This causes a subnormal concentration of the visual purple which prevents thp individual from becoming readily adapted from light to dark and dark to light. As a result he is unable to discern objects clearly at night." A diet which contains additional vegetables, egg yolks, cheese and milk is recommended by Dr. Scott to make up the Vitamin A deficiency. Tunnel Linked to Druids Found on Valentia hie Dublin.--A subterranean passage, about which even the oldest inhabitants know nothing, has been discovered on Valentia island. An islander was quarrying stones when he uncovered an opening, with steps leading down. Police and several local people attempted to explore the tunnel, but were forced back by foul air and water. Several theories are advanced regarding its origin: That it is a smugglers' "cave" dating back from the time of the American, John Paul Jones. That it formerly connected the island with Skellig Rock monastery, 11 miles out to sea. Natives long have believed that such a tunnel exists. That it is of Druidic origin. There is a stone-lined turret near the entrance like a chimney, covered yith soot traces and the name of the district in which it was found is "Tinnies," which folklorists say derives from the word "teine," <2aelic for fire.
