The difference between man and the lower animals is that man was Elven a brain and a conscience. Man knows what is rigiht and w)“; is Wrong. knows or learns u-ihat i; good and what is bad for both his mind and body. and also how tn. QmOY-lolu can be kept or controlled within healthful limits.

animal have in corrmon. and that is fear. Both were given fear to protect them from their enemies. As soon as danger presents itself. every muscle fiber in man and ani. may become; alert, ready to give protection or ready to run or fly to preserve life.

However. because man has a brain and conscience. he not only becomes alert when an emergency or danger arises. but he also thinks ahead about possible emergencies "d dangers. which thinking causes alertness of muscles and nerves, Then, even after the danger wi- emergency has been met. he con- tinues to think and so keeps tens. ed. And. as always. tenseness tires. In the “Canadian Medical As- sociation Journal." Dr. G. H. Stev- enson, London, Ontario, states that if we could learn to keep our minds relaxed. our emotions under more

control when dangers or emerg- encies (sometimes of little im- portance) arise. we would have

better physical and-mental health. “The angry person becomes mus- culariy tense and aggressive. the depressed person becomes agitated

and restless. perhaps panic stricken." As every (motion affects the

body itself - increased perspir- ation. rise in blood pressure, dig- estive disturbances - it can be seen how meeting life's stresses with more emotional control. less tenseness o.‘ mind and bcdy will mean "more life in our years"

Dr. Stevenson points out that man should use his alertness of mind and bodv for emergencies only as does the animal. and relax when the emergency passes. ‘Jn- fortunately, man spends so mucih of his time worrying, fearing and hating that he disturbs his physic- al. mental and emotional health. The proper thing to do. then. is to imitate the cat or dog which has been througih a tense e-rriotion- al situation. Relax muscularly. re- lax mentally.

Princess Elizabeth is fond of the old country dances of Scotland. She learned the more popular ones in the Highlands and dances them perfectly, rarely missing one iii a ball program. Now a dance has beenspecialiy composed in her hon. or and given the name “The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh." Com- poser of the music is Mr. John Robertson, who also composed the music for "Birkhall". a Scottish country dance. The new dance. to which the Scottish Country Dance Society has given its blessing, is for a group of eight. in keeping with all the country dances which belong over the Border. Gay and lively, one new step is introdured to add to the intricacies of the reel. and the whole dance lasts little more than three minutes O O O

The movements were arranged by two women members of the Scottish Country Dance Society who belong to Edinburgh. It will be interesting to see how often it is introduced into dance programs during the Scottish Season. in which the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh hope to take part in the flutumn.

Dorothy Dix Says-

Young Girl Should Study Fiance Well Before considering Marriage

Friend will make a good husband or not. ' question to which no daughter of Eve ever finds out the answer until it is too late_to do her any good. Some of the i-osiest prospects turn out the greatest dud-s, and many a lover is a philanderer in disguise. Any way you look at it there is a lot of guess work about picking out a husband, but, fortunately for women, few men are good enough actors to deceive a girl who really wants to know what she is getting when she gets married. drunkard, the roue, the gambler, the Weary Willies. are branded so that even a blind chick can ace what they are. So if she ties up with one of these undesirables. her misery is on her own head.

Hence, there is no foolproof recipe for selecting a husband. There are bound to be prospects that don't pan out, but. taking it by and large. every man furnishes his Girl Friend with enough data on the safe side of the altar to lip her off to the kind of a husband he wouldmake.
