It is also true that each year
recently there have been more
people who cracked" and had to
go to mental hospitals for special
treatment. Our hospitals are
packed full, but this is a result Of
the fact that we have a larger pro-
portion of old persons in our pop
ulation now.
The only actual increase in men
tai diseases has been among these
old persons. The form of disorder
on the increase is known as psy-
Ghosts associated with hardening
of arteries among older folks.
This increase is not due to reck-
less living or the world becoming
harder on nerves. 1t is due en-
tirely to the expected hardening
of arterise among older folks.
There is no significant increase
in insanity among young persons,
or middle-aged persons. Even the
increase among older persons is
sort of statistical artifact, since it

MOOD

You are not with me now to share
the scent
That April blows along the streets
Of night -.
Rich was our madness ere we
found it spent 80.
Wise were our vows till wisdom
proved them trite.
You are not with me now to watch
the moon
Weave silver shadows on the eerie
street,
And I am sad-for Spring will leave
Much as you left one day-my
very sweet;
And yet I trust that April finds
you gay
Find you enamoured now of some
one new,
Twisting your lines to suit a newer
play
Twisting a heart the way you
used to do.
You are not with me now
norf will you be
And terror strikes and has its way
with me!

is due to the fact that there are
more older persons in the world.
While our old folks have been
increasing in number, our many
research physchiatrists have been
busy finding cures for mental dis
eases which used to he hopeless.
The march of science is thus coun-
teracting the inroads of age. So
called shock treatments and OPP
erations on nerve plexi are now
curing hundreds who would not
have been cured five years ago.
Don't worry about us all being
out of our heads by 1875. BY that
time, we as nation may actually
be the sanest in our history.
