are frustrated and who don't know where to turn for advice or help. When the situation Is gone into, 1t is sometimes found that matters can be sfnoothed out, and the physical and mental health of the patient built up. and 1t Is en- couraging, to find how well some respond to treatment.
 To Teach Nurses
 This reminds me that, we are very much encouraged to learn that the Waterbury hospital is extend ing facilities for a. three-months course in physciatry nursing. This certainly is great step towards helping the nurse in her great work as a knowledge of physiciatry gives new understanding of hu- man nature, and enables us to interpret the numerous emotional
 maladjustments which hamper the lives of people today.
 Some people who have not given much thought to the subject think that mental hygiene Is one of those modern fads, but from long exper- fence I have found, that the advice of the physciatrist. which very of- ten sounds like Common sense. sometimes eliminates the need for further treatment. Here again stress the importance of being able to detect early symptoms. We all know that to confide in someone scientifically trained and competent to advise, gives us much strength and helps us to solve our own difficulties. In response to the question: DO you think that mental hygiene will help to reduce the costs of relief departments in cities?
 Results Impressive f Mrs Verdon replied: Undoubt- edly. l noticed that MT, Harris, director of Lincoln House, declared himself to be impressed with the value of physciatric work. He be- lieves that the proper application of physciatry now will greatly re- duce the cost of social work in years to come, by discovering among children traits which If al- owed to develop would cause them to become public charges.
 I was greatly impressed by MI Harris's description of a physciatric survey which had been made in another city. A study was made of a group of two-year old chil- dren. Tests were given which predicted just how far they would go in school. MT Harris said that seven years later when these rec ords were studied, practically every prediction of the physciatrist had materialized, and the children --- then seven years older--were found to be just as apt. just as bright, or as retarded as the case might be, as the physciatrist had foretold.

Wife Prefers Radio To Friend Hubby

When Q wife likes to listen to the radio, but friend hus. band thinks the radio is un- important and that instead the family should pay attention to his singing and dancing, there are grounds for real domestic difficulties. But when the husband shows his dislike for the radio by taking few punches at his better half. it's about time to call in the DO. lice.
 That's just what the wife thought and did, and the fam- fly troubles were aired in city court to-day. Judge McGrath managed to bring out that the radio was the cause of the family's troubles. ''SO you think she likes the radio more than she docs yOu?" the judge asked the hubby.
 "That's about it," said the radiO-hatcr.
 When the wife said she didn't want her husband around the house, and she did not want to hear then radio, the judge referred the prob- lem to Probation Officer Emil Hunlmel.

The duffer wound up and

down the Treasury Building, but
somehow or other he failed to
accomplish a thing toward get

first effort sliced off to the right
and ducked into some mud where
the rough will bloom in the sum-
mer time.
The second was half topped
and on the third the sufferer
hurt his wrists. The dream of
conquest was shattered in three
swings.
"Now we will start all over
again" said Diffenbaugh, "but
instead of keeping distances up
permOst in your mind, just try
to hit through the ball. Just
imagine that there are three
golf balls down there on the
grass and that you have to hit

other three shots?" pleaded the
duffer.
NOT FOLLOWING THROUGH

the answer. ''When you swung
