Disappointed Child at Christmas Time Subject to Sad Complex Danger % BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON THIS is the dpy of child study. Specialists of all kinds are giving advice to parents on physical, mental and moral hygiene. “Do this to your child,” they say, “don’t do that,” “be careful of the other thing.” It is all very good but not always easy to understand. One word seems to lead all the rest! “Complex.” A complex means kink. We grow up with various kinks in our brains,

one of which is that we’re rather of no account and don’t amount to much. We allow other people to walk all over us and pipe out meekly as they do, “Please excuse us for living!” This inferiority complex is a bad thing, a miserable thing, and an unfair thing. Seldom does a case of inferiority complex in a human being arouse pity, as it should, in the hearts of other human beings. We’re a good deal like animals. If one of a pack goes down the others eat him. There is no cure for inferiority complex. The only thing to be done for it is never to let it get a start. And the only way to compass that Is to begin when a child is born, and never let things happen that will humiliate him, or make him feel neglected in the big scheme of things. If he sees other children possess things that he does not have, he will get used to it in time perhaps, and take it more or less for granted. But when some special occasion singles him out for neglect, his philosophy will not come to his aid. The hardest of all things for him to understand is why Santa Claus has deliberately neglected him. In little children there is no resentment, Just a pitiful dawning of an idea that perhaps they are not worth bothering about. The beginning of a cruel complex. Mrs. Brooks Hostess Mrsj Richard Brooks, 246 N. Pershing Ave., entertained Wednesday evening with a Christmas party. Decorations were in keeping with the holiday season.
