He travelled by bus and train and his visit in- cluded Boston and its suburbs and a three day outing to New York. Although Mr. C. is now settled comfortably and is taken up busily with the affairs of the mill and his farming, he is a man who has mauled quite widely in his youth. The recent trip was no new out- ing for him. He had visited the Ststes before this and also most of the Provinces of Canada. Pos- sessing a mind which must explore details, it is amazing the wealth of facts, he has learned at first hand from his travels, which might easily pass another on the same route, by. Unlike James he is much intrigued by the new de- velopments of science which con- tribute to the ease and comfort of mankind, and so found much to interest him during his ab- sence. 0 0 James lends an attentive ear but is not much taken up W"-h the like. He cares little how many stories a. building. a marvel of the builders' art, extends into the heavens, nor of the quickness with which one might be whisked to its topmost floor. He cares less for historic and beautiful turnpikes. how unbelievably heavy the traffic, how orderly or fast it proceeds.

Johnny could hear a car stop. Another arrived close be- hind it. Then he heard Kay's voice raised in say laughter. He knew why it sounded gay; Irene was beginning to recognize Mich- IO1. the Great Dane. That meant she was getting better. Johnny Saxon slid his feet into beach slippers and picked up a robe. He went downstairs and out to the patio terrace by way of the conservatory. The others-big Nick Walker, Doctor Bob Clark. the sandy-haired youngster Ralph Dunkirk. and Kay were just head- ing across the lawn toward the swimming pool. A white robe was around the girl's trim figure. Irene looked up as Johnny hur- ried to join the others. Now there was no recognition in her eyes whatsoever. She looked at him as though he were a complete strang- er. Wearing a light pale green dress, she was serenely beautiful. Kay saw him coming, stopped, called out. "Hurry up! Last one in is n sissy!" She dropped her beach robe. Karen, the nurse, had done likewise. The others nodded to Johnny. Then all were running toward the pool, laughing. Someone said. "I'll race you. Kay!" Later, Johnny guessed that they all piled into the pool about the same instant. The water was cool rind exhilarating. and as he normed to the surface someone splashed him. It was Kay. her nimvsnt face framed bv a white l'lll'Jh”l' swim cap. "Touch bottoln!" she taunt- ed and dlsiaopcs-red.

The figure was lying on the bot- tom of the pool. It was the body of Grandpoppa Smith. Johnny grabbed the old fellow by his thick hair and brought his limp figure to the surface of the pool. Water dripping from his tail. lean-muscled form. Johnny ran to where the others were crowded around the figure lying on the grass. Doctor Clark had swiftly taken charge. But he snapped orders as though he knew what he was doing "Quick. Roll him on his stomach. There might be a chance if we give him artificial respirationl" Everyone was talking at once. Ralph Dunkirk.

DLD. r.-vs,-rv-v Baby-Sling Plea Mothers-For-fl:-Evening Deserve Consideration And Appreciation DEAR MISS DIX: In this modern day. baby-sitters have become pro:-ticzllly essenlinl. My friends and I have discussed the duties ex- pr('i('d of a sltlcr and wonder if other people in this job have tire szlmc problems. We are mature women who do this evening work as a supplement to our income und for the feeling that we are contribut- ing somcthing of ourselves to the community. Vfe have one complaint to make. though. and this is not an ex- .. caption but a recurrent happening. We find. lll mt-.ny crscs. that we are expected to do the follow ing. uillloul so much as a "thank you": (I; wash- ing dinner dishes (still standing at 8 P.M.); (2) caring for ncigzhborhood children who drop in to visit: (3) l('C(llflg and looking after pets. Only when pilrtaking of a meal do we feel obliged to clean the kitchen. yet we all seem to have .1 feeling of guilt if uc leave the dishes in the sink. Our responsibility. we feel. is associated with the ..- . Care of the children, that is. bathing and getting: -them properly settled in bed. often with a bedtime story. What about it Dorothy Dix. and all you baby-sitters-do you feel we have a gen- uine complaint? FIVE BABY-SITTERS ANSWER: The fault here goes back to the very moment when you are hired by it mother. Right there the duties you are to under- take should be clearly defined. and understood by both parties. DISHES MAY BE TRAP It is a very common occurrence. as you indicate. for mothers to pile the dishes in the sink and then hope (even though this is not part of the baby-sitier's outlined duties) that the kind soul will take pity on the harrassed parent and do them. If you fall for this trick once, you're done for. Mother will expect you to take on the job per- manently, so squelch the guilty feeling. and leave the dishes. Visiting youngsters could be tolerated for in while. but when it is time for your own charges to be put to bed, the guests should be politely sent home. . As for the pets-here we come back to the question of an agree- ment at the time of hiring. During the first interview with a pros- pective employer. inquire if there are pets in the home. and what your duties with them are. If the care of pets is added to your other tasks. extra compensation should be given. In this modern age when few people can obtain. or afford. per- manent help, baby sitters are a vital part of community life. A re- liable person who can be trusted with the care of babies is a prlre every mother should cherish. Kindness and patience are needed to get even the, best children to bed. and some of the spoiled brats with which baby-sitters have to deal would try the patience of a saint. To add housework or other tasks to an already exacting Job is a flag- rant impositlon. and the mother who tries it too often is going to find herself on every baby-sittcr's blacklist. u think I would be asklnz Q00 f a few months either to destroy the much if I wanted my husband o unease or explain them to me love 19”?" he keeps hcked up 3" ah! has to keep them locked up? 5” I wmnd.” 198” understand why Td throw the suitcase out every I am getting in the point where I C0'ltl um” anymmg guod mm our time I look at it and it definitely ls" P d g tmnk it wwld be ibmlxtriBgejotilth::;ll:t'fera:?dewl::taloPl:ch Gas) :1: sees fit to destroy e or o e or explain them himself?

Also. when the patient complains of symptctns elsewhere a. in the chest or abdomen, the physician by questioning and by signs present can get a fair idea of the under- lying trouble. Even when the pat- ient's symptoms show some men- tal or emotional disturbance, the physician must often look in see if any body effect or disturbance i.-. causing the mental symptoms. I have refl-rred more than once to the superintendent of a state hospital in New Jersey who was able to cure and discharge a large percentage of his cases because their mental symptoms were clear- eu up by removal of various in- fcctions in the body-teeth. tonsils, gall bladder. sinus. intestine. It is possible that even with the services of dentists, nose. throat and ear specialists. abdominal specialists. gynecologists or other specialists. all cases of infection may not have been discovered. In his book "Fundamentals of Psychiatry." Dr. Edward A. streak- er. professor of psychiatry. Univer- sity of Pennsylvania. in discussing physical causes of mental ail- menls. adds fever and exhaustion to infection that these three ex- citing forces are prolific of mental symptoms. "It is a common and casual happening of everyday prac- tice to have a simple pneumonia. influenza. is streptococcic infection and a host of other illnesses by the action of rising fever and in- creased poisoning of the blood. suddenly ghow psychiatric com- plications. usually delirium. These mental symptoms for a time over- demand immediate attention." While exhaustion does not play or. large a part as fever and in- fection. lt does play an important part as exhaustion may be the final result of long contlnuedwear and tear due to severe emotional conflicts. Fever, infection and exhaustion are what are called exogenous lcorning from outside the body) causes of mental symptoms. as are the industrial occupational pols- ons. the socially-acceptable nar- cotlc. alcohol and many narcotic medicines like the bromides. All these exogenous poisons may be. and frequently are. "directly alg- niiicant in the development of mental symptoms." While these exogenous or out-' side causes of mental symptoms must always be taken into consid- eration in diagnosis and treat- ment. they are not the largest nor most important cause of odd be- avior. Dr. strecker points out that the emotions are the heart of the mind; should the emotions deter- iorate. then the mind dies.
