SECRETS OF
HEALTH
-Rv DR.. Louis E. Bisch-

Many persons are interested
in the theories of mental analy-
sis-WheCher it be pSychoanaly.
sis as such, or some modifica-
ton of the Freudian method
but few, unless they have actu-
ally undergone an analysis, can
understand exactly how analy-
sis works.
In other words, how can at
tention to the mind relieve a pa
tient of a physical disorder
even If the physical ailment is
functional in character--that
is, if not accompanied by or
ganic changes in the organs or
tissues involved?
It seems logical that one
might use a form of mental
treatment to cure a mental
trouble such as obseSSionS.
fears, etc. But to use the same
method where the body is in
volved appears to some to be
quite a different matter.
1 will admit that it is hard
to believe.
Yet we must not forget that
the mind can and does produce
physical disorder of a functional
character which. so far as the
function or use of the organ in
volved is concerned, is Just as
serious as though actual organic
disease existed.
Following Is a case which !
have summarized in order to
try to make the matter clear.
A hitherto perfectly healthy
man awoke one morning to find
himself totally blind. Many spe.
cialists examined him, but Moth
ing abnormal could be discov-
cred about the lenses, muscles,
retina, or any other parts Of
the eyes.
Nevertheless, the patient
could not see-not SO much as
a hand held in front Of his
face.
Finally a nerve specialist was
called into consultation.
He was not so puzzled. He
claimed that the blindness was
functional rather than organic
and that 1t was caused by some
mental suppression-solne NAL.

Aviation Progress
By Archibald Henderson

Today we have nearly 10000
miles Of lighted airways.
Lighting equipment is standard,
and placed at 10-mile intervals.
In addition to the revolving
beacons we have course lights,
which not only point up and
down the course, but flash, in
Morse code, the number of the
beacon.
Three years ago only mail
was carried at night. Today
we are also carrying passengers
and express by night. With the
completion of lighting on our
major airways and radio bea.
con and radio communication
services, I believe night flying
on regular schedules will be
just as common as daytime
operation.
Every effort is being made &c
establish safety in flight, and
to make air transportation pop
u1ar. The large tr ransport
planes, with a top speed of $50
miles per hour. are equipped
with many modern convepienceS
wash rooms. electric grills,
refrigerators, easy ch hairS,
berths, radios and heated and
sound-proof cabins.
1t is, estimated that the
American total for all classes Of
passenger flying now greatly ex-
ceedS that of any other nation.
The United States. according to
figures compiled last year. con-
tinued to lead all nations in air
mail transportation. AS John
Goldstrom says in "A Narrative
History of Aviation"
"TranscOntinental and inter
continental airways already in
operation, and others definitely
projected, make it certain that
before the end of aviatiOn'S
third decade, passengers, mail,
and freight, will be transported
over an international network
OF airways crossing every con.
tinellt and every ocean, four or
five times faster than the speed
lest express trains and ocean
liners"

The enormous growth Of avi-
alton in the United States in
very recent years is one Of the
most extraordinary develop
ments IN the history of trans
portation. Aviation has rapidly
passed from a sport to a pro-
fession; from a profession to an
industry: it is destined to be-
come one of the most important
industries of modern times, both
in peace and war.
The development of war
planes is rapidly tending to
demonstrate the obsoleteness Of
battleships as effective modes
of national offense and defense.
Bombs dropped from few
planes, of comparatively small
cost, are sufficient to sink a
mighty battleship costing $685.
100000.
According to a statement is
sued by the Aeronautical Cham.
ber of Commerce of America,
the total amount invested in
planes, equipment, accessories
and experimentation amounted
to about SIS, 100000 for 1928.
The figures for 1929 ran well
over 100000, 900. In April. 1929,
according to Goldstrom, it was
estimated that flying over the
then 57,516 miles Of American
airways was at the rate of TO-.
100000 miles per year, or daily
rate greater than the equatorial
distance around the world,
At that time, more than a
year ago. William P. Mac
Cracken, Assistant Secretary of
Commerce in charge of the avi-
alton branch Of the department
said:
"One of the reasons for the
tremendous increase In com.
mercial flying in the United
States is the vast extension Of
aids to airway navigation Three
years ago we had 1000 miles Of
lighted airways. The lights for
the most part were rs miles
apart. There was one air mail
trip in each direction scheduled
over this airway daily. There
was little night flying"

Don't be resigned!
Don't sit down in the midst
of your misery-and say
everything is for the best be-
cause it is Gods will"
Everything that happens
ISN'T for the best. Most of our
troubles are the direct result Of
our own stupidity and cussed-
ness and they can be licked If
we want to lick them. Nor has
there ever been the slightest
proof that God will be annoyed
if we do.
We have already licked many
of them. Once people accepted
smallpox. diphtheria, yellow
fever. dungeons. slavery, illit-
eracy and other unspeakable
conditions as crosses sent from
God. Millions agonized and
died, resigi1ing themselves with
out a struggle to the Divine
will. but certain OF hers
DOUBTED, REBELLED and
GOT BUSY - created serumS,
fought wars, made laws. And
now we no longer pass the buck
to God if a family dies from
typhoid through drinking
tainted milk. We know that
God did not will that tragedy
but that we wished it on our
selves through our own neglect.

For Rebellion is already with

That urge for fuller, freer life

created. It is the voice Of
God, crying out in you-reach-

better than you have or are.
Before ever men walked or

CLASH IN COMMONS.
Challenge Is Made to Meet
Outside House to Argue
Education Bill.

LONDON, December 19.-The arts-
tocracy and the proletariat claShed IN
The British House of Commons last
night.
lack Jones, former guilder's laborer
n West Ham, and Lord EuStace Percy,
4 son of the great House of Percy, lords
traditional Of Northumberland, got into
a heated debate over educatton-so
heated that Jones issued a challenge
that they continue 1t by appointment
outside the House.
The measure under discussion was the
education bill, which raises the school,
leaving age from II to is years, and
circumstances of five shillings weakly
for each child coming within the pro-
visions Of the bill; that Is, between IA
and IS years Of age.
Called "SOp to Parents"
Conservative speakers attacked the
grants as being unwarranted sop 10
parents" and submitted an amendment
hrnittY9e the grants to five years. Jones
and other Laborites charged the Con-
earvatives wished to deny to the chill
drela Of the poor the benefits of educa-
tdon which they themselves nave
received.
I'VE want opened to us the Droao
highway Of the university" declared
Jack Jones. You Conservatives are
willing to spend millions on battle
ships-on battleships to blows brains
out-but you won't spend flve bob
week to put brains in"
Lord Eustace Percy, who was preS1-
dent Of the board of education In the
last Conservative administration, re-
t0rted that the bill had nothing what
ever to do with higher education and
would not bring q child one step nearer
the university.
Would Meet Outside
II viii arrange to meet you at any
place YOU may name In Britain and
argue It out" Jones flung back.
But the deputy speaker here turned
the argument into the paths OF order.
Lord Elstace Percy went on to say the
Conservatives believed in education as
much as did the Laborites, opposing
merely the principle Of giving some
thing for nothing In maintenance
The former head Of the board of edu-
cation described the Jones speech as
~dap-doodle."
'FYou are a born hap-doodle your
self" returned Jones.

iected by vote Of 249 to liz.

love mean other than the marriage
bond, and there is the hero, tail and
strong and honest, whose first kiss
is his first kiss, and whose heart is
one big circle of gold. And there is
the girl, who, guileless as she is, tries
a little of both and decides at the
end that love in a log cabin has its
advantages over pseudo love far
away in London.
All this is taken care Of well
enough by William Boyd (stage) as

VeleZ, who, for some reason, does
not quite carry conviction with her
