Pos sible
Hereditary
Insanity
Best to Face Trou-
blin g Problem m
With Courage.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

A YOUNG girl has written to ask
this question: There is q his
tory Of insanity and suicide in my
family. am engaged to be married.
Shall I tell my fiance? Have I the
right to be married."
Only the experienced specialist can
answer that question. 1t is best to
find q eugenist. the specialist who
has devoted his life to the study Of
such problems.
There are many kinds Of mental
disorder. Some are hereditary. Some
are not. A family tree that bears a
record Of mental disorders does not
bear an analysis Of them. Until that
analysis has been made, by an expert,
preferably a stranger to the family,
there can be no true decision rendered
on such a problem.
Young people who have to face
such a situation should, for their own
peace Of mind, consult such an ex-
pert. Instead Of worrying night and
day, fearing that every headache,
every mistake Of any kind or degree
Is a symptom of coming disease, 1t
would be sensible to 60 to the spe-
cialist and have the truth as far as
possible. II it is the worst, then the
worst is known and can be faced. If
1t Is good news, hopeful, what re-
Lief comes to the harassed mind.
Worry and fear Of insanity are
more than likely to prepare the way
for its oncoming. Health Of mind
depends upon the ability Of the person
to throw of fear and worry. 1t Is
not possible for the worried, anxious
person to do this for himself. It Is
idle to say to such one. Cheer up.
Sna.. out Of 1t. Worry never gets
YOU anywhere" II the worried one
had the power to stop worrying he
would have no need to be told to throw
1t of. He longs to throw it of, but
It clings like the old man Of the sea.
The suffering mind must have help,
and the help must be expert.
I would say to the young people
troubled by such questions, go to
the hospital for mental diseases. Ask
for the name and address Of the ex-
pert who Is prepared to help with
such problems as yours. Then 60
to him and tell the whole story. Don't
make the mistake Of hiding anything.
Pour 1t all out. your fears, your hopes,
your family history, your own per-
sonal history. Don't If you value
the help you seek, let shame force
you to hide any fact, any feeling.
There is no cause for shame in the
situation. Mental illness is no more
shameful than any other kind OF u
ness that beSetS humanity. know
that and try to overcome that idea.
AS to telling each other family
history and personal feelings and
personal history, be certain OF the
need. II there is dread and fear in
the mind Of either, the thing to DO
Is to see the specialist. II he says
there Is q barrier to marriage it must
be told. II he says there Is none
there Is no need Of telling.
There Is q note OF hope in Life
always. Experience teaches us, life
disciplines us, we grow out Of weak
ness into strength. Let that thought
help those who have made mistakes.
The You Of yesterday is gone forever.
The You Of today is the only one you
need to know. Try to make that one
the best possible and 60 forward In
hope.

Printed L,aces.

Printed laces are making their bow
this season as q new variation to meet
the perennial demand for prints and
the high fashion for all-over laces.
Brilliant combinations Of colors are
favored, colors that catch, the eye, and
they are used in bold and startling
patterns. On lace, the prints are espe-'
cially effective because Of the pattern
and sheerness Of the lace itself. On
background Of black chantilly, large
flowers Of reds. oranges and yellows,
with touch Of green, are blended to-
gether to make one evening dress that
will be seen on some Of the best dance
floors this season. Other dresses have
their patterns printed on white lace.
The flower motif Is especially popular
as It can be matched In real flowers to
b worn IN ths hair.

Death of New Hampshire
Boy Is Branded as Brutal

CLIFFORD, N. H. September Ii
Vlctim OF what State and county Off
cials called 'one of New Hampshire 8

vile Jenson was found today at the
side OF lonely. dead-end woods road
with his skull crushed and his chin
pierced by sharp instrument.
Upon tire tracks etched in the soggv
mud near the spot where the body was
found investigators pinned hope for
apprehension of the killer.
An early suggestion that the young
ster, son OF Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Jenson
oil nearby Laconia, might be victim
of hit-and-run driver was discounted
by Sheriff Frederick D. Elliott
The sheriff based his belief the child
was slain. he said, on the nature of
the head injuries. on the fact that the
boys clothes were as neat and trim
as when he left his home on an errand
for his mother last night, and on the
location of the spot where the BODY
was found. Medical Examiner L. I
Brown also declared unequivocally:
This boy was murdered"
Neville. son of a truckman in mod

Chinese rushed heavy reinforce

OF the bitterest, as it was among the

In the early stages of their drive
the japanese were aided greatly by
Dig guns aboard their warships

by bombardments Of their field bat
