‘I'll FAMILY PHYSICIAN ll l PSYGHIATBIST

"Riofsct that iopereentofom young Canadians of military ogo were found to be ciontaily unfit for the armed services fmnished food for thought.‘ u well as the circumstances that, exclusive of war wounds, one-third of all dis- charges from tl-leCamadlan mny were due to psychiatric (mental and emotional) disabilities."

I am quotlng- Dr. Clarence M. I-lincks, General Director, National Committee for Mental l-lygeihe, Toronto in "Canadian Medical As- sociation Journal." Dr. Hincks is speaking of World War I! which, despite one above discouraging fig- ures, was far ahead of the physic- al examinations in World War I. where only the physical condition of the recruit for the aimed services was considered.

Why are bhere so many unﬁt mentally and emotionally for the armed forces in Canada and the United States. and why are so many that are apparently fit unable to ‘withstand anmy life, not only in battle but ln traimlxig for battle?

To make our boys and girls. men and women, more able to meet life's responsibilities, Dr. Iincks believes that medical schools should give chore time to psychiatry so that the average family physician can more readily recognize the early symp- lims of odd behavior In children and adults and give the treatment necessary to prevent mental and emotional disabilities.

Also, just as baby clinics. alrtih- rltis clinics, chest and surgical clinics are held regularly in gen- eral hospitals. so also should psy- chiatric clllllcs be established. Such clinics would make unnecessary the need of hundreds of‘ psychiatrists a-nd the building of :0 many mental hospitals.

NEW YORK, Dec I — Four year-old Julio Anne Alloro was tho proudest girl in Brooklyn today.

From Buckingham‘ Palace , she received the ‘wishbone of the tuc- key she sent Princess Elisabeth u a wedding present.

And in addition she had a letter expressing gratitude for the l7- pound turkey.

Early last month Julie, who had heard of food shortages In Europe. picked up her piggy bank contain- ing $4.20 and travelled alone to Manhattan to place an order with an exporting firm for a turkey to be sent to the Princess. Julie's mother was notified by the firm and she added $5 s: part payment on the bird.

Tho turkey wu lent with a noto asking that tho bird's wishbone b0 returned to the lender.

Tho letter returning the wish- bone. signed by a lsdy-ln-woltlng. sold: “I'm desired by the Princess Elisabeth to convoy to you III Royal Highness‘ sincere thanks for your lovely turkey. which the Princes: Elizabeth accepted u a token of your good vwishes on the

Ellen's Diary nuns-uranium

Our granddaughter Iufflrlbg in xocont dlyl fﬂln the affects of c cannon cold, continues to im- prove in health‘ and now has reached that stage of convolesoenco when any demand must be met im- mediately. Needless to say, each one is token as a favor and attend- ed to with s. smile. And as a fam- ily, we did not notice much the strong noisy winds of today nor the Winter rain which, this after- noon, streamod down the windows. What matter that the wind shriek- ed about the house and the rain poured? Our small one was better. The old smile, a bit languid how- ever st tlmu, was back and though weak yet from the bout o! illness, fsvorito interests were renewed. "I believe" I said in s listless tone before breakfast this morning to James "I'm coming dow_n with the cold myself." The last word was cut short by the first of a uccesslon of snoezes. Juries looked bewildered. I cough- ed s. deep sound. "In your chest, Ellen?" James asked. I nodded. "Any pain?" "Not exactly." O O I

Ho caught up his cap. "I: you're that miserable" he said "I'd better csil the Doctor." "Perhaps" 1 said, coughing again "after a spell." And then I proceeded to get ready for the Doctor's" visit. It began with washing the breakfast dishes and continued through stages of clean- ing and sweeping and tidying the kitchen and rooms. And once when James I suspect getting everything in good order in the stables us well, before ho did his summon- ing. so as to be prepared for airy eventuality, came indoors to note my better or worse condition, saw that I was dusting with more than usual vigor — the top of a. door, it was-—a smile brushed away the former worried look and he re- marked: "ThaUs a pretty healthy sign, Ellen!" And it happened that by the time 1 had the house spot- less and wood and coal and kind- ling in the porch to assure com- fort during my illness which might be extended, it was quite time to attend to the preparations for James’ dinner, besides I must run to see the grand-daughter in the house across the lane before f should take to my bed with any degree of content. Then I sudden- ly bethought me of the small wash. which if I were going to be ill l must attend to first. It would never do to have even so much as a snll- ed towel in the house! And since there was hot water left after the rinsing bath, I might as well scrub the kitchen floor -- and wax it. Door knows, if I were to be laid aside when it would be done! l would make a pan of biscuits - they would help eke out the supply of bread, already dwindling. And I would make an apple pie for James‘ supper. though it was quite unlikely if I were not present that he would as much as touch a bite of it. O O O
