This is the "mess" room. Children may make as much mest as they like, or daub and scribble on the walls, thus potting "repressions" out of the

THIS IS THE DO AS YOU LIKE SCHOOL
BY A SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT

THE school where they don't say "don't," where repressions** arc allowed to burst to the surface in a glorious gala of mischief, is now officially open.
It is the new Children's Centre
built by the Institute of Child
Even climbing out of the window is not discouraged -It may reprosont a way of escape from carly bad impressions.
Psychology in Pembridge-villas, p & O-BRITISH INDIA (APCAR) AND|
Bayswater. W.. and the Mar- chioness of Carlsbrooke per- formed the ceremony.
And this is some of the new "technique" in educating difficult. backward and delinquent children which they showed to the Mar- chioness and to Mr. Kenneth Lind- say, Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education:
Special water rooms," where chat!- ären can squiri hoses at each other a throw seater about just as they like;
"Mess rooms" with ted walls and a light blue floor, filed with pots of sticky paint, where they can daub anything they lay hands on,
Model Diagnosis
Not only are the children encouraged to splash the paint about, but also the staff is careful never to clean the room up until the children have left it,
This is so that the children shall never be made to feel "gulity" of anything they have done.
In another room, there are blg trays of wet sund, and boxes and boxes of model cars, soldiers, houses and other things.
Here the children are encouraged to Inake model worlds.
Envariably the world they bullt ex- presses the inner conillet which has led to their revolt against society-their tendency to bad temper, violence, or even theft,
By analysing these models, experts can dig duwn Into the troubles which lie at the root of the child's difficulties.
Dr. Margaret Lowenfeld, the Centre's psychological director, who is keenly anxious for a new national outlook on juvenile delinquency, said to me:-

A year ago Mike became tired of New York society and hitchhiked to trousers Hollywood. Although his were threadbare and his pockets as empty as usual, Mike still carried the grand manner.
