Seasickness

Seasickness is rather a mystic
rious complaint, for the general
health of a passenger on board
ship does not seem to have much
effect upon his resistance to sea-
sickness. Science believes, how
ever, that seasickness is con-
cerned with the upsetting of an
individuals physiological balance,
which is controlled by what are
called the serni-circular canals of
the ear. Once that balance is dis
turbed, the digestive system is the
first to be affected, and so vonit-
ing and headaches and mental de-
preston convince the sufferer that
he is dangerously ill.
In point of fact, seasickness is
more uncomfortable than danger
Gus. Sedative drugs cure some
people, stimulants are effective in
other cases.

Behind this brief announcement

dated as OF May l, 1941, which is
exactly enc year after DR.. Bryan

Council has investigated the staff
and facilities Of the hospital with
regard not only to the advanced
methods of the care and treatment
of mental patients, but special at

teaching arc research program.
The essential divisions in the
program are:
l. Formal instruction in pyschia-
try, including lectures and case
conferences.
2. Active use of advanced treat
ment methods, including camphor,
insulin and electro-irritative thera-
pies; hydrotherapy, physiotherapy
chemotherapy and occupational and
recreational therapy.
3. The laboratories of pathology
which specialize in physiological,
neurological and chemical tests
which are used to guide physicians
in the proper medical treatment of

a. The medico-surgical hospital
with its complete and modern
equipment for medicine and sur
gerry and X-ray diagnosis and treat
ment.
5. Tie nursing division with its

6. The laboratories Of psychology
with their well-developed program
of psychometric tests of mental
functions, courses of training in

In addition to these diversified
educational activities, the research
program of the hospital was a fac
or in securing the approval of the
Norwich State hospital by the
Amer lean Medical association
Eight members of the professional
group are engaged in psychiatric

OF importance, also, are the af-
filiations between the hospital,
through It's laboratories of psychol-

hospitals training in clinical psy-
chology Is accepted for graduate

This recognition by the Amer

DR.. Bryan, will attract to the state
many young men who wish to Sc

receive well rounded accredited
