PERSONALITY
Environment is a potent factor in
the development of human beings,
but it cannot do everything, either
physically, mentally or spiritually.
It can help to form character," but
it cannot change the basic person-
ality. It may modify certain traits
and peculiarities, at least in their
outward expression, but it cannot
make tall people short, nor stocky
ones long and lean, nor can It make
the phlegmatic person vivacious,
nor the dull man brilliant.
All that the most up-to-date and
intelligent parent and educator can
hope to do is to evaluate the mate-
rial he has to deal with, and find
for it and give to it the best for
its special needs.
Educators, as a result of their
own pre-disposition are often inclin-
ed to stress intellect at the expense
of all else, and parents obediently
follow their lead. The child's prog-
ress In the class-room at school is
often taken for the measure of his
ability.
But intelligence and intellect are
by no means synonymous. The one
does not necessarily include the
other. There are "idiot savants, "
many of them uncannily brilliant in
their own line of achievement, who
could not pass a normal intedli-
gence test, and there are men and
women of undoubted practical gen-
ius who never have been able to
do the work necessary for a high
school diploma. Much valuable ma-
terial is wasted—square pegs in
round holes—because of the confu-
sion of terms.
Intelligence may be social, me-
chanical. express itself through
arts, crafts, manual work of one
kind and another, and yet be able
to scrape through grammar school
only by dint of the hardest kind of
work. Forced beyond his intellec-
tual capacity the child grows dull
and discouraged, and may well end
up one of life's very obvious fall-
urea.

NATURAL INCREASE
The natural Increase of the population of Texas in
1934 was considerably above the national average, it
was revealed in statistics released by Director Wil-
liam L Austin of the bureau of the census, depart-
ment of commerce
There were 146,693 live births in Texas in 1134 com-
pared with 58.731 deaths, giving a natural Increase
of 56,672 persons. The increase in 1932 was 49,002.
The number of births for each 100 deaths is a good
index of natural Increase in population and in 1934
there were 195 births for each ion deaths in Texas.
During the same year in the United States as a whole
there were 156 births for each 100 deaths
Heart disease, was the principal cause of deaths in
Texas in 1934. causing 8.509 fatalities Accidents caus- ,
ed 4406 deaths; cancer 4,000; nephritis 3,504; and.
tuberculosis 3,020 Deaths of infants under one year
old in 1934 totaled 8,381, which means that 73 out of
every 1,000 infants born alive died before reaching
one year of age! • ‘
The figures are their own best proof of health con-
ditions in this state, of the optimism Af our people,
and of economic conditions. Where opportunities pre-
sent themselves to the people to pass comfortable
existence, there may be found happy and growing

Railways of Mexico are owned by the government,
th* employes have voted a strike to take effect May
10 unless wage incresses are granted. Directors of
ts railways declare that to grant the request would
mean immediate bankruptcy, and appealed to the
"Btriotism" of all railroad men to avert the strike.
Eheoretically, the workers should realize that the
railroad is paying all it can in wages, since it isn't
owned privately and doesn't have to pay a pront, but
the tow wages paid, plus the fact that American pel-
veteiyowhed roads pay far higher wages for the
arene work, tend to dull the patriotism at employes.
The workers don't care whether they .are working
for the government or a corporation. They simply
wint more money and are interested only in the kind
of ownership which pays them best.
