PINK AS A CURE.
VIOLET FOR BUBOLARS.
Premeditated violence....Yellow. Blue. Passionate violence Burglary... Violet and black.. Those are the colour schemes suit- able for the prison cells of three types of criminals suggested by Mr. Kemp -Pressor, the colour specialist, who deprecates strongly the idea of pri- sopers choosing their own tints. This has been permitted in a United States penitentiary.
Mr. Prossor stated that neurasthe- nics and other people almost inveri- ably choose the wrong colour. Her has made out a table of colours most suited for infuencing prisoners of different types. He is convinced time the system vill eventually be brought into use in England and will be found beneficial.
YELLOW FOR ASSASSINS. "People who have commited a violent crime which they have been contemplating for many years should › be placed in a cell coloured yellow or orange, as these colours stimulate the brain and tend to drive out morbid- ity, he said to a Daily Mail report- er, "If the crime has been done on the spur of the moment, blue of Fish-green should be used, for they gre scothing colours. A man confined a few years in a cell so tinted would probably be quite altered,
All cells should have a bite ceit ing to drive away the idea of being confined within four, walls, which preys on the prisoner's mind."
# Burglars very rarely have any money. They rob, for the love of the game more than anything. They love" excitement. To break down that spirit of adventure a scheme of vio- let, black, and, little blue should ba used.
In Borstal institutions the pre- dominant colour should be pink: Pink is the most normal colour there is "The colour scheme of 75 per cent. of English homes is pink. That colou will impress on the boy thieves and others of the. Borstal institutions the idea of returning to the home.
"This decoration of prison cells could be done very easily and very chreply"

As an example of the effect-of colour on the mind Mr. Prossos quoted an instance of a factory with two rooms in it," one coloured red, ose coloured bine.
