I SHOULDIUVE KNOCKED

ishould'uve knocked on wood! How wonderful you look!" said relatives and friends in New York and I smiled smugly and answer- ed, "Thank you. I feel wonderful and am having the grandest tlmel" (I was indeed) Why did- n't I knock on wood - preferably on mypwn dense skull that never harbored a suspicion of the jeal- .ous little sprites ever hovering about ready to pounce on a happy mortal!

Well I didn't. Or perhaps I should'uve watched y SIBP End not run down the subway stairs toward the open train on the track! Anyway, I fell and broke my wrist and was off in so am- bulance to the nightmare world of the emergency ward of I SE83! city hospital instead of a gay fam- ily reunion. .

Since I was in no immedlat danger. I was left standing hold- ing my broken wrist in my good hand. Finally. a young Negro orderly came by. He smiled en- couragingly and brought me a chair and a band for a sling.(May he have happy dreams!)

When I was told that it might be hours before a doctor could see me. I had the difficult ne- cessity of notifying a member of the family. He whisked me away to another hospital where I en- tered the emergency ward at the same time as three Bun-men who had shot each other up rather bad- ly and four fire-men who had suf- fered serious injuries in the course of their duties. So here we were - bad and good and stupidly careless. Therejust isn't any mo- ral to this tale:!.

And now. is there one among my readers who has never sus- tained a broken wrist? Suddenly the Island has become crowded with those who have had my ex- perience! On the train headed for the Island, out of the few pass- engers, one was a lady who had had her cast removed just a few months ago! Men and women. at the sight of my arm-sling. stop me on the streets of Charlotte- town and relate tales of their broken wrists! It is a perfect ex- ample of the psychological prin- ciple. "reaction sensitivity" in operation. Whether it is an in- jured wrist. or a new interest in the cultivation of roses --wrists and roses spring up all around us!

Another basic principle is the desire to repeat pleasant exper- iences. Thus I attended the Gov- ernment House Reception last week even though dressing with one defective wrist (rapidly im- proving) was somewhat stren- uous. But I was as richly re- warded as I had anticipated. The gracious friendly interest of the Governor and his Lady and those who assisted them; the lovely table and pretty summer cos-

'she referred to John Geddy and his brave wife who went from this section as the first missionary to the New Hebrides.
