That Body Of Your;

E By James W. Barton. ID. Q3 T Cl'rlzENS' ORGLVIZATION To HELP ESTABLISHED MENTAL SERVICES

Years ago there was cud: I de- mand for hospital beds in mental institutions that it was estimated that within 50 years one half of all the people in the world would be needed to look after the other half, who would be in need of mental treatment. Fortunately, with the coming of shook treat- ment-insulin. tnetrazol and elec- t.ric-many mental patients were cured in a short time and hhe majority able to return to their regular work.

The National Association for Mental Health tells us that today "there is a definite trend upward in the quantity and quality of care and treatmcrli for many of the 750.000 patients in the nations public mental ltnsvpztais as well as an increase in the outpatient. psy- chiatric facilities."

Despite this encouraging note in the Associationls annual report. mental illness continues to be our nation's number one health prob- lcm: today there are more people in our mental hospitals than there are in all othcr types of hospitals put together. and mental hospitals are badly understaffed. In some instances the coins made before Worid War II have been wiped out by the drwirin: of hospital per- sonncl into industry and defense nctivitirs.

The report states further thail according to present-day trends. at least one out of every ten person: will need profcsslonni psychiatric care at scme time (luring his life

What is beil1:; done to combat this increase in the number need- ing mcr.-tal and cmolional care” This Association sponsors and helps finance inspection and rat- ing: promanis for public mental hospitals. These surveys. conduct- ed by the American Psychiatric Association. are designed to pro- mote the cstabllslimcnt of higher standards of these hospitals. Dur- ing the year. 42 hospitals in 11 states. Canada and Hawaii have been inspected.

It Is admitted that governments are granting large sums of money to further the work in mental hospitals. The National Associa- tion for Mental Health, Inc., is a national citizens association and devotes itself entirely to bringing improvement and expansion of the

mental services through consulta- tion. education and research.

Rich and delicious. this sauce has perfect consistency to boot. If it is hot when it strikes the ice cream, it will become a little bit pully-just what most people likt it to do. if the raiice is allowed to become cold it would be rather too thick and should be thinned a bit with a little cream.

We will continue our descrip- tion of the Royal Garden: and Bal- moral is the Scottish home of the Royal Family. Here nature is the landscape architect. The base of Craig Gowan is a fine site: the trees around add a som- breness that is characteristic of the countryside.

Balmoral Castle seems to have remalned "outside of time" and imbued with the spirit of Queen Victoria. whose happiest days were said to have been spent. in the Highlands. Here the land- scape is the garden. Those read- ers who have motored along, or walked round the Crathie side of ”Balmoral Forest", will know what I mean.

Besides that. we do not realize to what extent the Queen's liking for Dceside that landscape fashionable.

It was largely due to her inter- est and that of the Prince Con- sort that Balmoral is now stir- rounded by luxuriantly wooded slopes. When the Prince Consort bought the estate. which covers thirty thousand acres, from the Earl of File in 1852. he immod- lately commenced planting the hill- side with Conifers and other for- est trees. The influence of the Prince Consort is also seen in the architecture of the Castle, for al- though the design of this is main- ly typical of the Scottish baronlal style, there is n distinct suggestion of Rhenlsh architecture in the turret: of the stately central tow- c

r. Windsor Castle is the most state- ly of the Royal homes. standing on It hill overlooking a glorious stretch of the Thames Valley. It is bounded on the east by a re- markable sunken formal garden and the gloriously wooded slopes; on the south lie the I-Iome Park, Frogmore House and the kitchen and fruit gardens; on the west is the delightful Moat garden of which part is shown in the colour- ed illustration on the back of the cover of this book on the Royal Gardens.

To the keen horticulturlst one of the most delightful explorations is the Moat garden near the Round Tower which stands on a lofty artificial mound surrounded by a deep, dry moat. During the early years of this century General Sir Dighton Probyn set out to trans- form the moat and the hill into a charming garden. Later. under Lord Wlgram, the work progress- ed further.
