182 SOUTHERN MEDICINE AND SURGERY April, 1924. this condition,�together with a perfectly simple method of preventing as well as combatting it. Dr. J. Ross Snyder, in "Oral Hygiene," after dashing off one of his delightful tirades at the foibles of his professional confreres,�which no one who knows him ever gets offended at, but which are productive of immeasure-able effect where effect is most needed, ends up by introducing his associate in the treatment of children, Charles B. Bray, D.D.S., whose paper, "The Necessity of Better Dentistry for Children," can be read not only in this number of the Archives, but as well in "Forecast," the popular magazine which asked permission to reprint it. Needless to say, he completely proves" the point set forth in his thesis. Dr. W. L. Funkhouser, head of the Pediatric Department, Emory University, Atlanta, considers "Congenital Feeblemindedness." This subject, that is constantly brought before us in the youngsters brought to us in the course of general as well as of special practice, deserves just such careful consideration as it receives at his hands. "Prenatal Care" is the title of a paper which contains the most important points made in his course of lectures, by Dr. Oren Moore, of Charlotte. The fact that these lectures of his were some of the best received in the entire course, makes them well worth the reading by any one interested in the problems of pediatrics, obstetrics, or general medicine. Another Charlotte man, Dr. Harvey P. Barrett, in "Colitis�a Pediatric Problem and a Challenge," brings before the readers a subject of interest over the whole South. Although not presented formerly before the Seminar, it was deemed sufficiently timely to be included. "Congenital Syphilis: Prevention and Treatment," by Dr. S. H. Welch, Pediatric Syphilographer to the Alabama State Department of Health, is a review of the present status of Syphihs at birth, and its treatment. As will be seen by the brief review given above, there is a pretty fair sampling of the field of pediatrics offered the reader whose interest is that of giving the best he knows how to give to the youngsters he sees in the course of his general or special practice. The fact that.the contributors, like the rest of the faculty, have been chosen from all over the South, renders the number especially readable. All in all, it is a most creditable offering from Southern pediatrists to the whole profession. Mental and Nervous James K. Hall, M. D., Dept. Editor Instinct. Spring has come and with it myriad manifestations of instinctive reaction to environment. The grass is springing up; the trees of the forest are bursting into buds; the trees of the orchard are blossoming in their proper season; the birds are mating, male with female, and each after its kind�there is no mixing of varieties; migrational changes in the feathered creatures are taking place; many seeds�the potato, for example�begin to sprout and to giVe the start to a plant even if left untouched in the cellar. These phenomena are so common as to provoke little comment. Only the type of mind besotted in speculative philosophy and learning would presume to attempt to make the natural supernatural. It is natural for things to behave just as they do, and not in some other fashion. But instinct, nevertheless is not well-understood. It submits itself unsatisfactorily to analysis. The bird hatched only last spring, without experience, instruction, or observation in nest building, is now busy in selecting material with which to fashion a nest. And its nest will duplicate in every detail the nests of its own kind for ages back. Instinct is, indeed, the most wonderful phenomenon in the universe. It is the endowment of the living thing with innate reaction �tendencies to environment that will tend to support and perpetuate the species. The day-old chick turns to one receptacle for water and to another for food, although it has never before seen
