Paint and Ceiling Height

In undermining an older type Of
house the question of what to do
with too high a ceiling is frequently
encountered. An old rule that the
ceiling should be lighter than the
wall is often disregarded. The rea-
son for this is simple. Employ a
cream ceiling, for instance, In
high room and the cream of the
overhead spaces can actually seem
to fade farther into the distance
and increase the appearance of
height. Give the ceiling a darker
shade than the walls and this treat
ment has the effect of drawing 1t
down closer to the rest of the room.

During Operation

sTRATFORO, Ontario, May IS
G.N.SO.-Bruce Chessell, four
years old, battled for life today
following an injection of nine
drops of adrenalin administered
when his heart stopped beating

Suffering from internal injuries
after being run over by a wagon,
the child was brought to a hos

DOCTORS TOLD
Of OPERATIONS
ON THE BRAIN

Speaking firm 16 years expert
ence in studying patients in the
Danvers, Mass, hospital for men,
tai diseases, Drs. Clarence A.
Bonner and Lois E. Taylor told
delegates of the American PSYCHE
atric Association, meeting today
at the Mayflower Hotel, that men
tai cases resulting from head in
juries are comparatively rare"
The effects of operations Tor
brain tumors were discussed by
DR.. S. Spafford Ackerly, OF Louis
vile, KY.
He told of one patient who was
up and about week after the Sec
ond of two operations was COM
pleted for the removal OF the oraln
tumor.
Operation Made Him Active
During the first year after the
removal the patient was over
exhilarated, over-active, playful
and facetious. he said.
During the second year, tnese
symptoms disappeared except LOT
an unusual capacity for concen-
tration which is described as a
lack of ability to be distracted
once she has started to do some
thing"
According to the Danvers ply
sicians, only one-half Of / per cent
of the patients admitted to the
institution in the 16-year period
were there as the result OF heao
injuries.
Particularly in the case OF per-
sons engaged in unskilled work,
duration of the stay in the hos.
pital and Of the subsequent social
and economic adjustment was de-
scribed as much better than
could be expected"
Head Injuries Discussed
DR.. Irving Sands, of Brooklyn,
took UP the discussion of brain in
juries, asserting that proper neu-
Biological and psychiatric examlna'
tons are necessary. He said:
'The result of any blow on
the head Is determined by the
effect it has ON the brain tissue.
It is also influenced by the age
of the patient, the force of the
blow, and the part Of the brain
injured"
According to DR.. Sands, a blow
on the head not only Injuries those
portions of the brain directly be-
meath the part of the head struck,
but also the part directly opposite
where the blow landed.
Wall Street plungerS whose
wealth was swept away by the
1929 debacle, and habitues Of
Greenwich Village, those peculiar
types who seek to cast off the
trammels Of civilization, are
fundamentally the same.
Or so it was explained by DR..
John Whitehorn. biochemist OF
.Waverly, Mass. Z
Human sentiment, according to
DR.. Whitehorn. is an attitude on
life which has become fixed by
habit"
The stickler for convention is
branded by DR.. Whitehorn as the
'oblgative" type of character
organization. Those who indulge
in more hearty, practical and
genial uses of life are called by
the Massachusetts, biochemist,
persons Of zestful orientation."
Group Escapes Psychosis
The latter type, according to
the experience of DR.. White
horn, seem to have. a better
chance Of escaping treatment as
''psychoticS." He said:
II have been impressed by
the relative scarcity Of whole
hearted raScals and hearty sin.
ners In the psychOtic group. 1t
appears to me that the great
bulk of psychotic patients have
striven towards q virtu0us
idealism, often . fastidiOus
