INDUCTION OF FEAR
- 'FOUND HARMFUL T0
r AMERICAN CHILDREN
' ""' ' - - : " i -
's CHICAGO Parents, relatives
relatives and teachers, by means
of threats, unsuitable stories or
through the confagion of their
own fears, ring fear into the lives
of at least 37 per cent of the
children or America, the National
Kindergarten and .'Elementary
college here has determined from
a questionnaire answered by 2.77
of the students. . , . ;.
Where fear was not attributed
to the home. It was usually sup
plied by playmates and practical
jokers or by too close contact with
the forces of nature, according to
the college, which blamed 51 per
cent of the cases of fear on thesa
sources. Eleven! per cent 'were
unable fq recall the cause of their
outstanding fear, and onlya little
over 1 '. per cent could remember
no f ear at -all.; l 'd r.i. -
The list of fears included ivlr-
tnally everything that entered into
the life of the child, with the
general exception of members ot
his family. The fear of darkness
ranked first. Animals, insects.
gypsies fire, punishment, burg
lars, false faces, cannibals, teach
ers, , parents and doctors . were
causes of fear to others.
"Less than 10 per cent of these
fears could reasonably be 'consi
dered of value to the child as a
protection against danger, tsaJd the
college. "The remaining 90 per
cent are worse than valueless, tbey
are a menace to the mental, moral
physical and social development
of the child. Their effect Js not
limited to childhood.: for more
half of these college students ad
mitted they never had' beeai able
entirely to overcome-these' fears.
Normal tears, ! better termed
'reasonable caution, the useful
ness and necessity for which have
been carefully explained . or de
monstrated to the child, do not
leave this indelible stain." ...
The questionnaire also asked
for suggestions as to the preven
tion of fea andjfirst on the list
was the advice that thei child
should never be frightened, either
in fun or in order to secure obe-
dfence; that adults keep - their
tears to themselves and stop using
the child as a safety valve; that
they learn to control the child bv
other means than switches or
darkness, and that they keep the
child from the fearful or horrible
element in stories, either of fiction
or. of real life. ;

' It occured to Miss Gunnell after
seeing the: Indian Pantamlne Pro
logue given at Chemawa last June,
that here at our very! door was
located the largest Indian school
In America, which might be called
the melting pot ot; assembly of
the young people &6m the various
western tribes. Besides this won
derful representation, jof types,
was an ideal location for Indian
study pictures, composed of , the
Willamette river and country sur
rounding Salem., So with a desire
to depict the natural beauty of the
Indian girls, and to record the
strength and character in the faces
and figures of the boys these stu
dies were undertaken. I
The Indian maiden who posed
for a number of the studies was a
Pendleton girl, a member ot last
year's graduating classl Genuine
handmade Indian costumes were
used throughout the studies, and
liter when the photographs were
ready to be hand colored in oil,
the original colorings' In the cos
tumes and Indian accessories were
faithfully " reproduced, j Care was
taken to obtain naturalness and
truthfulness in these studies so
they might be worthy; of being
considered authentic records of
Indian life. After the picture
Image was explained minutely by
the director to the children at the
place selected, the. Individuals
were left to themselves? to express
the imagery 1n their own way.

tures one concludes that these still

genuine sincerity in erecting this
pictorial monument to the beauty
and grandeur qf . their people and
