rhythms of twenty seconds dura-
ton. These alternating rhythms
continue for from fifteen to
twenty minutes. IL this cali for
food is unanswered, the stomach
gives up and remains quiet for
from one to three hours. Then
repeats the call.
That mechanism and an empty
stomach come with every normal
baby. With one big difference
between baby and adult; the time
between unanswered calls is not
hours, but minutes. The adult
has already built his body and
can live on his fat; the baby
has to build its body. Besides,
the baby's skin area in proportion
to body volume Is larger than
the adults; it loses heat faster,
hence needs more fuel for it's
furnace. And as soon as it be-
comes active, it is very active.
No action without energy. Ii the
infant has to keep yelling for
every meal, still more food is
required; even an infants stomach

in the meanwhile: what goes with
hunger, what are the accessory
phenomenal? The animal gets
more excited: beats, babies. and
men. Hungry protoplasm is
more irritable than JUSTIFIED
man or baby: it can think of
nothing else. Even the human
cortex at such times has been
known to get so crossed that
only a divorce court could IN
tangle the lines.
Also. The heartbeat rises from
eight to even 80 per minute.
Blood pressure rises. Salivary
glands more active. All of which
leads to feelings-emptiness, faint
ness, restlessness, droWsiness,
headache, even nausea. 1t all
depends on the individual; inten-
sity Of stomach contractions, con-
dition eof stomach's sensory nerves,

CHAPTER XXXIX

How does the baby know 1t is
hungry? 1t does know; and IL
born Of an undernourished mother,
has been hungry for days and
enters the world grub-struek.
We speak of drives, impulses,
wishes, instincts reflexes; but liv-
ing beings must eat or they die.
Hunger is back of life, the primer.
dial drive in life. And IL life waited
for the doctors to decide whether
hunger is physiology or psychol-
ogy, life would starve to death.
The fact that an infant enters
the world grub-struck may be the
most momentous single factor in a
lifetime of behavior. The way the
appetite back Of that hunger COM
pick becomes conditioned may be
the decisive factor in shaping that
individuals career. Without
hunger and it's attendant appetite
there could be no genetic, visceral
or somatic behavior. Even psychics
are believed to be subject TO
hunger.
Hunger has led to crime. to
suicide, and to cannibalism: and
the fear OF it, to war. 1t can
make us feel faint, give us dull
headaches and gnawing papgs--

Bridges, of McGill University, in
an article on this much discussed
and frequently misunderstood
subject. BY calling attention to
the fact that the conscious per-
sonality is not the whole person

out ways in which a person can
gain greater control over himself.
In the interest of mental health,
psychoanalysis has added two

though we are not always certain
whether the pangs gnaw in the
head or in the stomach, or
whether 1t is the mouth that feels
hungry. But we can get so hun
cry that the sight of food makes
US sick" or too dog tired" to
eat. But why a fast can make
one man cantankerous and fit for
a spiritual life is as yet fair
puzzler. What is certain is that
if the way to mans heart is
through his stomach, the stomach
Is worth looking into.
1t has been during the last Is
years, and more learned of its
nature than in 5000 years won
dering about it. BY cutting
nerves, inserting balloons, and
X-ray observations, Cannon
cleared up much that was OBJ
scure. Carlson let in more light,
chiefly by experimenting on a
Czech, who feeds himself through
a tube in the wall of his abdomen
because an accidental dose of
strong caustfc soda closed his
esophagus years ago.
The hunger mechanism Is in
the muscular walls OF the
stomach. The stomach itself an
nounces that it is hungry by
violent rhythmical contractions

with mild normal or tonus

than two and one-third hours
Thus nature answers a question
often put to the doctor: when and
how much? AS much as its
stomach will hold and as often
as it cries for more. Colts. calves,
and kittens grow up that way
and seem to do well.
We feel hungry when, and in
normal life only when, the empty
stomach begins it's hunger con-
fractions. The more violent these
contractions the hungrier we feel:
it becomes painful" Mild hun

more as general kinesthetic

which we are aware of our bodily
states and emotions. But the en-.

MANNERS
Mrs. Cornelius BeeckmaA.

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Would you kindly advise me a.
to who stands in the receiving line
of a reception Immediately follow
ing a church wedding? The recep"
ton will be at the brides home.
2, Which Is proper, for the
bridesmaids to march together or
separately where there is more
than one? DOLLY.
Customarily, this is the forn1a-
ton of the receiving line at q Wed
ding: First, the father of the
bride; next, the groom's father;
next, the groom's mother; next,
the groom, with the bride on his
right; next. the maid OF honor; and,
last, the bridesmaids.
2. Usually the bridesmaids walk
together, two by two, the shortest
leading. And this is the best form
in both the professional and the
occasional.
Individual Gifts
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
My fiance's brother is to be mar
ried soon. Is it all right for my
fiance and me to present one gift
from us both, or are the rules 81
etiquette that each of us is to
present a gift separate from the
other? 1 would like to be correct
as to this. My fiance and are
to be married in the spring.
A FRIEND-IN-NEED.
I.think that until couple are
married it shows little bit better
taste for them to give separate
wedding gifts.
