For the Birthday

Those whose birthday it is may be prepared for a year of many conflicting and coiiiradiotory ex- periences. Large . interests are at stake, with excellent promise of gain, growth and expansion, pos- sibly coming after a menaced or static situation. To amend such and make worthxshllc progress, perhaps promotion. social iiif':u- ence or contact with those in pub- lic positions may he depended on. However. there are auguries of loss. financial hazard. with an undertone of duplicity and snares. Keep alert.

IECUEBILNT ABDOMINAL PAIN IN CHILDREN

when a youngster has frequent attacks of pain in abdomen. 1! 1! only natural for parents to blame it on something the youngster has eaten. While it may be something the youngster has eaten. it is Just. as likely to be something about the child himself and have noth- ing to do with food.

In The Lancet. London. Drs. R. M. Keith and Di3'Nelii report their observation that among out-pat- lent children. emotional tension and the usual or recurrent ab- dominal pain often occurred to- gether. '

To find out how commonly the repeated attacks of abdominal pain were part of an emotional state. a consecutive series of 25 children with this symptom were investi- gated. The children ranged in age from 3 to 16 years. Attention was given to habits of eating and sleeping, behavior at home and at

school, family atmosphere and home environment. Besides the usual or clinical examination. X-

ray ilirris of the chest were taken in almost all cases and special tests with barium meal and an ei- cctronecephalograph (which chart. movements of the brain) uere given.

The first few sessions of the psy- chiatric examination were with the mother .alone: at later visits the mother and child were interviewed separately. The nature of the pain in four children remained obscure. The remaining 21 children were divided into two groups. In 15. emotional excitement. was the prin- cipal cause of the attacks of pain and the time relationship between emotion and pain was plain. In the remaining six children. the emotional tension was partly to blame but other causes. such as eating too fast. seemed to ex- plain some attacks.

Drs. Keith and O'Neill cite ex- amples of attacks associated with anxiety. anger or with grief. Of the 21 children whose attacks were related to stress in some way, 1? had other signs of tcnsion such as

headaches. irritability, stammer. restlessness, fidgeting and nail- biting.

The above symptoms. like the attacks oi pain, were worse in con- ditions oi stress and improved with psychiatric treatment. '

Of the 16 patients who were treated at some length, two con- tinued to have symptoms as be- fore; six showed improvement and eight ceased to have attacks and improved in general health.

With the youngsters eating the usual foods that agree with them and then having recurrent attacks of abdominal pain, the emotional condition before, at. and after meals should be investigated.

Economical Meals

DIVISIO-N OF Nll"I'lllTl0N Department of Health and Welfare

"What do you eat when there's fish for dinner? I just take one mouthful and leave the rest." This snatch oi conversation was heard recently in Charlottetown as two children walked home from school. Does this happen in your home? Why do we not eat. more fish when it is so plentiful and economical? .

Fish can be one of our most. delicious protein foods. its food value is about the same as meat. it is easily digested, and is the rich- est known source of iodine. Better still it is very economical. Hud- dock fillets, smoked finnan huddle, canned salmon, salt cod and chicken huddle are only a few of the varieties that cost. less than meat.

is fish delicious and tempting when served in your home? Do you use new and tasty recipes? The Department of Fisheries in 0!- tawa will send you free of charge their new "Canadian Fish Recipes." it will make you want. to eat fish often, and gives many wonderful and economical recipes. Write to Consumer Section, Department oi Fisheries, Ottawa.

Here are a few general cooking hints:

Do not thaw frozen iish before cooking.

Cook fish quickly at a high temperature-450”? to 500517.

For baking allow about 10 minutes for each inch oi thickness-n little longer if fish is frozen.

Never place fillets in water as valuable Juices are lost.

Do not add water to fish except in soups and chowders.

Use sauces, seasonings. rind gurnishes often to add flavor.

Serve the most ordinary fish in attractive ways-fried. poached, baked: in souffies, snlnda, chowders, sandwiches. fish cakes, fish loaves; with sauces, dressings, vegetables and garnlshes.

Serve fish at least twice a week and cut down on food expenses. Send for the new Canadian Fish Recipes and learn to like fish!

Iminaiure Husband

Wife Better Cit-Iseparafecl From Irresponsible Male

DEAR MISS DIX: I have been married just a few months, and my husband has informed me that he doesn't love me any more and doesn't want to live with me. We went together for seven years. and though we had our quarrels during that time, we always straightened them out. Since our marriage. he has refused to minke a home for me: we are living with our respective fnmilles. though I am expecting a baby. We see each other three nights in week-the usual date nights. I know now that I'm just hang- ing my head against A stone wall when I ask him about finding a place for us to live. We're old enough to be established. too: I'm 24 and he's 26. Should I get a place of my own and make him pay the bills or just wait and see what time will do? MARY ELLEN H.

ANSWER: The most dangerous men in the world nre the mild individuals who will never be able to accept the. responsibilities of marriage, but who, nevertheless, do invelgle trusting women into marrying them. They are incapable of attaining emoiionni maturity. and want. evcrlasiingioy to be moth:-rod. Their instability is manifested often during courtship. but the little woman, ever avid to acquire a wedding band, or perhaps swept off her feet by the lure of baby blue eyes or iippenling blond hair, iulla her doubts with the eternal hope of. "He'll change when we are married."

WAS HE EVER RELIABLE? :

I'm suh, Mary Ellen, you'll remember, if you look back. that your husband was never a reliable suitor. His feelings were easily hurt, he wasn't. prompt at keeping dates, or considerate of your welfare at any time. Your admission that you quarri-lcd dyring this period indicates many causes for dissension, all undoubtedly based on the same disin- clination, on his part. to accept a man”: place in the world.

Marriage to him was to he merely an extension of courtship, with added attentions from you-but again, no responsibilities incurred on his part. The bitter blow was struck when you found you were to have a baby. Hubby finds he is to take second place-n fact incomp :- hensible to his small. egotistical soul. So he blithely ahirks off what little responsibility he had acquired. and announces that he will not live with you. There is nothing you can do to give him manhood. and he wouldn't be worth the trouble if you could. You mult face -the

While those days are regarded, by some as a period of stringency and even the austerity on Island farms, looking back we marvel at how well folks were fed. There were it is true, few of the import- ed necessities we take now for granted in our diet. Oranges and the juices our small ones accept so casually or not at all, were a luxury. But we had preserves and apples instead and when the sup- ply was exhausted. there were dried fruits to vary our menu. Ripe tomato: were eaten only by faddists and in season with the more cautious folk fearful of their cfect. though all agreed that when cooked they made a tasteful relish. Lettuce. celery, cucumbers and the lilac were not to be had in the country in winter. but we had excellent substitutes in the stored vegetables and the half-barrel of "kraut" in the cellar. There was no "Pop" to be had at the corner- store nor did we have any pennies to devote to the buying of candy. But we knew . . .
