IS DANGEROUS
Doctor's Warning
To Teachers
Reasons why many children do not make satisfactory progress at school are discussed in an article in the "Practitioner." by Dr. W. Lindesay Neustatter, of the depart- ment of Psychological Medicine, Quy's Hospital.

Analysing the reasons for listless- ness and abnormal psychological conditions, he added that physical causes are in a minority.
