School and Your Child
' -Ji By: John Coney
Education Department Appalachian State Teachers College
The “part-time” fathers our
society seems to foster cause
many children to be evenly dom
inated by the female, says Dr.
Wiley Smith, long-time professor
of psychology at Appalachian
State Teachers College, Boone,
-N. O.
Where are the daddys, and
what’s wrong with the feminine
influence ?
Dr. Smith reports these ques
tions well answered in a book,
“Father to the Child,” written by
a professor of child psychology
at Queens College, New York,
Dr. Everett S. Ostrovsky.
Divorce is of course an import
ant factor in separating fathers!
from their children, says Dr.'
OStrovsky. And occupations such
as selling and the military keep
others away from home. Long
hours of business make absentee
fathers out of many executives.
As for th e female 1 influence, it’s
wonderful; but too much „is too
much. "A child needs, practically
equal exposure to masculine en
vironment.
In fact, Dr. Ostrovsky suggest
that “father-deprived” youngsters
may puffer personality disorders
ranging from sexual maladjust
ment to extreme aggressivness or
submissiveness.
In his book, the psychologist
presents case studies made while
he taught in a nursery school.
They demonstrate the need that
children have for companionship
of a father—preferably their gwn
father. ,
And when there’s no daddy pre
sent, or present only on a part
time basis, a lonely child fre
quently demalds a “father-sub
stitute.”
Dr. Ostrovsky reccmmends that
substitutes be furnished. He' sug
gests several possibilities.
One method is to put men as
well as women on the nursery
school staff. The same goes for
the elementary school, now tau
ght primarily by women.
Fortunately, there are as many
men as women today in high
school. Actually, the -latest gov
ernment report places men ahead
of women as high school teachers i
for—the 'first time since 1890. 1

*" #*-
Males now comprise 52.2 percent
of the total.
The male influence, however,
is needed much earlier in life.
A father begins to take on great
er significance for the child after
early infancy. But the father’s
presence in some homes unfortu
nately doesn’t increase with the,
child’s need of him, says Dr.
Ostrovsky.
Even if Junior does have a full
time daddy, Dr. Ostrovsky' be
lieves it’s good for the boy to be
exposed to many different male
personalities. -
For instance, the psychologist
found in his case of Paul, a five-
I year-old whom he called the t
I Spartan Boy, that the child’s
image of a man reflected a tight
mouthed, unflinching “he-man”
who shouldn’t show feelings. His
father trained him purposely to
ward excessive independence to
harden his character.
Paul’s contact with Dr. Ostrov
sky in nursery school taught him
that a male can be strong and
also exhibit affection. Further,
it isn’t shameful to show fear,
sadness of incapability
The same benefits of being
around other men occur to a boy
whose father allows the mother
to “boss” the family because he’s
timid, v Children soon learn from
other men that all members of
the male species aren’t necessar
ily submissive by nature.
I For father-deprived youngsters
to obtain as well rounded a con
ception as possible of the male
role in life, Dr. Ostrovsky sug
gests that any chance they have
for a prolonged and satisfying re
lationship with a male adult rela-'
tive, teacher or family friend
should be exploited.
Opportunity for such ' children
to visit homes where both parents
are pleasant gives a more realis
tic and better-balanced picture of
home life. Male group-workers- i.i
community centers and camp
counselors also can greatly con
tribute to the child’s understand
ing and emotional enrichment.

TEENS HEALTH I
Health and Safety Tips From
The American Medical Association j
Many boys and girls of high j
school age are much more self
conscioUs than they need to be
simply because they let themsel
ves become careless about their
grooming. N< '
They worry about a lot of lit
tle things their nails (which
they meant to take care of the
; night before, but didn’t); specks
of dandruff on their shoulders
(because they didn’t shampoo
often enough); their complexions
(pimples and acne can be treat
ed). • •
In Today’s Htalth, the maga
zine of the American Medical,
Association, the teenagers are ad
vised that the very first thtlig
any self-conscious youth should
do is to make it a habit to keep
himself perfectly dean at all
times.
First aiftl foremost to keep i
clean Is to take a bath every day, i
more than once a day if engaged’

1 Complexion care «an be a real
1 problem for teenagers, because
of the tendency for pimples,
blemishes and assorted skin erup
-1 tions during these years. Soap
1 and water, plentifully and fre
quently allied, are the first line
>of defense against blackheads
and blemishes.
• Treat blackheads and pimples
with, respect. Squeezing and pjn-
I ehing them often aggravates the
[trouble. j
j Acne is the re suit of increased
* hormone output; of certain endoc
trine glands. There is no way to
prevent it, but it can be controll
ed and treated, and, in most
cases, scarring can be avoided.
Here again cleanliness is the first
step. Thorough and frequent
cleansing of the face with soap
and water will keep acne to a
minimum.
Some foods, such as nuts, cho
colate and fried and greasy foods,
may increase acne. But a visit to
the doctor is important before
beginning any self-imposed diet.
Many physicians will urge a diet
,|high in fruits, meats and vege
table s.
Care of the hair and scalp of
' ten is neglected by teenagers. It
1 isn’t very difficult. Regular sham
pooing, use of comb and brush
and regular visits to the barber
i shop or beauty parlor are a
I “must.’’’ Hair should be washed
"at least once a week, more often
J if the hair is oily or if the youhg
- ster is active in strenous sports
. Massage the scalp with the fin
gertips during shampooing. -For
1 stubborn dandruff, see’ a ph£si
; cian.
, Frequent washing of hands,
. sometimes with a small scritb
> bhush, also is important. Both
. beys and girls should manicure
? their nails at least once’ a week.
i Boys, especially, should keep
nails filed short'.
, Teenagers, busy with -many ac
tivities, sometimes get careless
, about another important health
measure regular brushing of
I teeth and regular trips to the
dentist..
( Many of the minor worries of
adolesence can be reduced if the
. teenagers'will take just a little
time to be clean, neat and well
' groomed at all times.
