This is the first of two talks, within the series, on 'The Difficult Child.' Today Mrs. St. Aubyn will discuss the problem in general, and in the second she will deal with it rather more particularly. Despite the attention it now receives, the 'difficult' child is probably no more a problem of today than of yesterday; but education tends more and more to attempt an understanding of the individual child rather than children collectively, and this has brought to light the need to understand all special characteristics and idiosyncrasies, since therein, probably, lies the key to the child's development.

Few of us know much about the little country that stretches along the south coast of the Gulf of Finland, Estonia. The Estonians, who number close on a million, are, nevertheless, a picturesque people, given, from morning till night, anywhere and everywhere, to singing the national songs, of which they have so rich a store. Madame Aino Kallas, who is giving this talk, is the wife of the Estonian Minister in London and the author of 'The White Ship' and other volumes of stories.
