Secrets Of Health
BY DR.. Louis A. Bisch
Famous Authority on Health and Psy chOIORy

We feel what we wish to feel.
But being a strong wisher is
not necessarily a drawback.
Strong, insistent, persistent
wishing has built big business,
has created new enterprises, has
begot inventions and started
men on many marvellous discov-
cries. It has also motivated all
the fine literature and art the
world has ever known.
Nevertheless, merely to wish
and nothing else is not enough.
Solid foundations must also be
built, to set our wishes on some
thing solid and tangible. That
sort Of foundation is action!
Without action our wishes,
no matter how noble they may
be, are as nothing. To wait for
a ''lucky break" in order to
have our wishes realized is a
waste Of time and energy. To
be a big wiSher but a little doer
soon becomes a character han
dicap.
Therefore, fashion your wishes
always within the realm of the
possible. Don't wish for the
moon, or for any absurdity.
Make your wishes definite and
concrete. Let them spur you
on. Let them fire you with en-
thusiasm. Let them color and
enrich your life. But don't al
low them merely to be idle fan
tastes the fulfillment of which
cannot, by any stretch of the
imagination, ever take place.
Many persons behave that
way, and that is why they feel
so thWarted and morose. It is
a line Of least resistance in hui
man reactions, and few are
able to escape it completely.
First of all, we must always
see to it that our reasoning
checks up on our wishes. We
must use logic and common
sense TO tone down OVerprOduC-
tive imaginings. Wish in a
grandiose fashion if you like,
but always make every wish
square with reality.
To wish a little at first and
make that come true is an
excellent initial step to bigger
wishing and bigger results
DIR. Bisch's Daily Health Hint
Eye defects among children
are on the increase because in
school work the eyes might be
used less and the ears more.
An eye examination to deter
mine whether glasses are neces-
sary should therefore be made
on every child.
The Washington times., 1933-01-06

The child wishes. The adult
man or woman wishes. Even
old age is not free from wish
ing. In fact, If we were to.
take wishing out of life COM
pIetely, the human being would
live little more than a vege-
table existence.
For, after all, hope, desire,
our longings and ambitions,
our StrivingS, our plans for
the future are merely just
so many forms of wishing.
The human being is the great
est wiSher in the animal king"
dom. From his earliest days
he is continually striving, want
ing, projecting his imagination
into the future-in short, wish
ing.
With this strong tendency
to wish goes also the ten
dency to believe that what
we wish will come true, or
already exists. Sometimes we
believe, without any actual and
adequate proof to support the
mere wish.
For example, some years ago
somebody started a theory that
q competent radio operator
might be able to tune in" on
the planet Mars, and a little
later scores of amateur radio
fans, even those with tiny
crystal sets, began to hear mys-
terious sounds which they at
once interpreted as messages
from Mars, millions of miles
away.
1t is, in fact, almost impos-
sible not to believe what you
want to believe. Those enthu-
siastic radio operators who be-
guiled themselves into believing
that they had made contact
with the far-diStant planet
blandly overlooked the fact
that they often could not "get"
even a nearby city. But they
wished to hear Mars! And they
did! Or so believed.
The same holds true through
out the range of our desires.
We read into occurrences mean
ings and interpretations after
the pattern Of wishes. We
see what we wish to see. We
believe what we wish to believe.

never had.
Good lord, you started be-

Advice to the
LoveIo,n
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Green-Eyed Monster Again
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am 18 and have been keep
ing company with a young man
for three years. He is very un.
popular with my family, and
they are continually nagging
me about him. They say he
will never make me a good
husband, because he is too in
Sanely jealous. Do you think a
jealous-hearted man is as deS-
perate a character as they pre-
tend? Do you think when a
man is jealous of a girl it is
because he does not trust her?
He claims he will never give me
up. And oh, how dirty mean
have treated him!-still he
comes back.
He is a soldier with high
ideals. and when he comes to
see me, he dresses well-says
he has too much respect for
me to wear a uniform when he
is calling. I think one reason
that my family doesn't care for
him is that he seldom takes me
out or spends money on me,
but what can you expect on so
small a salary as $22.50 a
month
It seems to me, my dear Jolly,
that jealousy is a pretty bad
possession with which to set up
housekeeping. It's more apt to
wax than to wane. What's this
you're telling me about the
young man having too much re-
spect for you to appear in uni
form? He strikes me as a queer
type Of soldier, not to be proud
of it. If he feels that way,
why did he enlist?

The National Theater became "the

Since his Harvard days the President

he would go to the theater when

most successful comedies, was known to
be such play. And in spite of the
fact that no announcement further |
than that "Mrs Roosevelt and a party |

ance, it was surmised that the President
would attend also.
No audience this season has cheered
so wildly as when the President ap-

of his son John. Chris Arth led his
musicians through verse Of 'The Star
Spangled Banner" which, incidentally,
Mr.. Arth has played many times for
previous Presidents. Smiling happily.
and acknowledging the applause with
his characteristic nod, President Roose-
welt seemed as glad to be there as the
audience was to have him. During the
performance he was observed to be en-
