Dr. William Hall, who has done so much to stir up an active interest in the feeding of school children, impressed by the prompt and striking results he has witnessed by beneficially influencing their food environ- ment, threw discredit on heredity, and not only so, but argued that there is really only one important element in environment, and that is food. He went so far as to say that food altered the whole condition of the individual, and that the children in the slums of our great cities, pr...operly fed, could be reared superior in physique to children reared in better -class districts, which, from his own point of view, proved rather too much, for if the slum children when well fed are superior to the better-class children, presumably equally well fed, then they must have inherited more vigorous constitutions, or the better-class children must be retarded in their development by conditions other than food. Amongst the Jewish children in Leeds, examined by Dr. Hall, who were so much stronger and less rickety than the Gentile children living in ithe same district, careful feeding may have been, and probably was, the A SANITARY OUTLOOK 91 principal factor in their better health and vigour, but there were other factors which should not be overlooked.
