A part of this Exposition will consist of a literary congress. Of this Congress I have boon chosen as Chairman, and our Committee are now outlining the work which we are to do.It la our design to present a short historical survey of what has boon done in a literary way in tae various sections embraced under the ton Trans-Misissippi. We will assign to people qualified for such work the production of papers bearing upon the past condition, the present attainments and the future possibilities of Art and Literature in this region, in the aim to give some sort of direction and stimulus to the higher form of Art production. These addresses may afterward be printed in volume to be sold, through the regular channels of trade, although this has not yet bean decided upon.The thing which we wish to know at present Is whether we can depend upon your sympathy and support In our Convention. If It has your sympathy and good will, I wish you would reply, addressing your letter to Mrs. Prances M. Ford, Secretary of the Local Congress Committee, to whom the active details of the Congress will necessarily fall during my absence in the Northwest, It Is my Intention to be present and preside at the meetings which will take place during the first week in October. October is a pleasant month In Nebraska, and the gathered grain of our prairies is well worth seeing. The people of the West will be glad to welcome you, and your visit will be made as pleasant as possible. Speakers will be entertained by the Committee. I sincerely hope you will be able to lend us your sympathy and your active support.Yours very sincerely,[illegible]Chairman of the Congress of Literature.0241

Five-Year-Olds Punish Antisocial Adults

The human tendency to impose costs on those who have behaved antisocially towards third parties (third-party punishment) has a formative influence on societies, yet very few studies of the development of this tendency exist. In most studies where young children have punished, participants have imposed costs on puppets, leaving open the question as to whether young children punish in real third-party situations. Here, five-year-olds were given the opportunity to allocate desirable or unpleasant items to antisocial and neutral adults, who were presented as real and shown on video. Neutral individuals were almost always allocated only desirable items. Antisocial individuals were instead usually allocated unpleasant items, as long as participants were told they would give anonymously. Most participants who were instead told they would give in person did not allocate unpleasant items, although a minority did so. This indicates that the children interpreted the situation as real, and that whereas they genuinely desired to punish antisocial adults, they did not usually dare do so in person. Boys punished more frequently than girls. The willingness of preschoolers to spontaneously engage in third-party punishment, occasionally even risking the social costs of antagonizing an anti-social adult, demonstrates a deep-seated early-developing punitive sentiment in humans
