Novelist’s Life Key to Success In Her Career

A woman who's done things most women dream about doing. That's

Fannie Hurst, the novelist, who will be one of the headline speakers at the million-dollar bond luncheon in the Marott hotel Oct. 7. . At one. time to obtain material for a story she, crossed the Atlantic [as a passenger in the steerage. On another occasion she studied the life of a shop girl by working in a -department store at a. ribbon counter. - She was discharged from the latter job because she gave a customer a generous measure. Now Miss Hurst lives in a threetiered apartment, or rather, a dwelling within. an apartment house, on top of a building which overlooks Central park in Manhatfan, = Medieval furnishings and rugged walls lend to the monastic isolation she insists upon. in her seven-hour working day. New York knows Fannie Hurst almost as well as she knows New York. ‘Each morning she and her dogs practically “open up” Central park, where she walks several miles before breakfast. Her acquaintances range from the mayor to Maizie of the Bowery. Miss - Hurst sold her first story in 1912 for $5. “Just Around the Cerner,” -published in 1914, was her first big success. Since that time she thas written novels, plays; short stories and scenarios. Among her outstanding . stories,

Health— A ‘Good’ Child

Is Likely to Be A Sick Child

By JANE STAFFORD Science Service Writer’ ; wih FASHIONS in child-training are changing under the leadership of psychiatrists who, from their studios of emotionally sick people, can tell us how to train children for meets ing grown-up problems in a healthy way. . These ' psychiatrists first taught us that the “good” child, the quiet little mouse who was a model of Victorian deportment, was a sick child and likely to be a still sicker grown-up. He had been so frighte ened and repressed by his “spare the rod and spoil the child” traine re that he would never dare to a step or decide on anything for himself.

» # ‘ ’ so PARENTS LEARNED, instead of spanking or otherwise punishing their children into obedience, to strive for the children’s co-opera-tion. The co-operative, well-adjusted child became the goal of child training. Now we must go one step farther, Psychiatrists have learned that coe operation may also be a ‘sign of sick= ness. Patients in mental hospitals who were co-operating beautifully with the directions of nurses and doctors were, someone discovered, actually getting sicker, The coe operation was a sign of deteriorae tion, not of improvement in their health. Children, too, it is now known, may co-operate beautifully with parents’ demands, as they progress into a state of helpless dependence. Parents and educators should ask themselves not whether a child is co-operative but why. That is, whether the co-operation is a spone taneous sign of health, or only the obedient reaction of ‘a dangerously

submissive, repressed child whose spontaneity has been destroyed. =
