An the music they are playin' when

DOCTORS AND THE DAILY PA

Newspapers are the latest subject of
disagreement among the doctors. At
home We have Prof. Frederick Peterson
of Columbia university declaring that
the habit of daily newspaper reading
leads to mental deterioration, while in
London there is Sir James Crichton-
Browne pronouncing deliberately that
the newspaper with all it's faults is
one of the buIwarks of sanity"
1t is DR.. PeterSonS theory that the
man over his daily paper. scanning the
headlines. reading a bit here and there,
gathering a disorderly array of un-
stable impressions, is affecting his brain
by wearing out 1.-The faculty of the It's
sues for permanent registration He
is cultivating "the art of forgetting"
and is subjecting his mentality to the
peril of assault by ''innumerabIe con-
cepts utterly incoherent as to their
alignment in consciousness
Many a man. says DR.. Crichton-
Browne, has been saved from melan-
choly and faulty by his daily paper"
The news sheet is the antidote to cor
rosive egotism and gives a worldwide
horizon to the purblind and shortsight-
ed" Undoubtedly there are victims of
too little substantial memory That
there are VICTIMS OF memories TOO
greatly specialized the fates of many
champion chessplayers give evidence.
Newspapers have neither made the one
nor saved the other.
Isolation is a great factor in the pro-
duction of mental disorders, and the
daily newspaper has become the most
important medium for keeping millions
in contact with the daily affairs of the
world. In this respect it unquestion-
ably prevents rather than promotes in
sanity, just as the rural free delivery
and rural telephone service are said to
be exercising a similar influence upon
the minds of farmers wives. DR.. erich

gerate when he concludes: Suppress
