Parents know that at times their youngster may feign illness be- cause he doesn't want to go to school for some reason; at other times when really sick and receiv- in): attention from everybody, he will continue to Cdmpliilll 0! symptoms after he is completely well. It would seem that many of these children, when gmv-'n U13. continue to use real or feigned ill- ness as in ”delensc mcchzinisni" to avoid responsibility. In New York State Medical Journal.

He can learn to express his resentment when necessary and later to the rest of the world." The psychiatrist or other thera- pist tone giving treatment) must feel the patient's mood and re- spond to it in a healing way. By careful examination and ques- tioning. the patient learns to see himself as he really is-free of organic disease-and therefore in fit condition to face his responsi- biliiics in life.

For Tomonow ENIERGIIS. ambitions. initiative and courage are under splendid stimuli for progress, new enter- prises. important projects. all under exceptional creative skill. with keen urge to drive ahead under full steam. Nevertheless, such ardor, stimulus and enthu- slosm must be calmly studied. firmly controlled, held in leash. The way is best with difficulties and dangers, mainly of a sinister and subtle or hidden menace. The mentality is not keyed to shrewd insight, and intuitions may lure to peculiar dangers or queer in- volvements. Postpone action. For the Birthday Those whose birthday it is are urged to make calm decisions. weighing cautiously all plans, sug- gestions and propositions before entering into any agreements. sl- liances or pledges of vital conseq- uence. while the energies. creative ability and sound purpose may be keyed to vigorous performance. the way is beset with pitfalls and dangers. The judgment is faulty, ruled by emotions and feelings rather than by cold lcglc. Under- tones of deceit and misrepresenta- tion could lure into intrigues, schemes and plots. with little to gain by the seductive journey. A child born on this day. while having sound creative urges, skills and enthusiasm, could be easily lured by false premises and seduc- tive bypaths. c How can I l ! 1 wuw y By Anne Ashley lg Morning Smile if 5 Q.
