Etiquette in Wartime

II Is comforting to have our
wounded sent back to our own
hospitals, where some of us can
go to see them. But this means
that we must follow certain def
mite rules of behavior-or to put
it more accurately, acquire amen
ability to advice from those in
charge.
This answers a letter from a
young woman whose feelings are
hurt because an "unfeeling nurse"
suggested that she cut short her
visit to wounded soldier. The
nurse was, of course, right. In
fact, many Of the hospitals have
been obliged to make rules for
the protection of the seriously
wounded from those whose inten-
tions are completely good, but
whose powers Of observation are
completely bad. Those, for ex-
ample, who stay on and on-never
noticing that AIS cheekbones
have flushed, or the lips of that
buddy Of Jim's have grown gray,
all because their visitor has not
realized that convalescents tire
easily. In fact, they may very
we'll suffer serious setback from
any expenditure of their strength.
The plainest of common-sense
rules that each and every hos
pital visitor should remember
are: Bring only pleasant news.
Don't get into any serious dis
cussion. Don't ask questions
about the war. And at first evi-
dence of excitement or fatigue,
get up. and with a pleasant, i'm
personal excuse, leave quickly.
Don't say, "Oh, I'm afraid I've
tired you!"-worse yet, upset
you" Say brightly, TITS been
good to see you" and-GO!

old, who survived several bomb

was lying in an outpost when a

of him and exploded. He remained
in a coma for three hours and when
he recovered consciousness, he was
walking in a wood, crying like q
baby and shaking all over. He had
no injury, but continued to suffer
from headaches, loss of memory
and he trembled on hearing an
aircraft and kept thinking of a
friend of his who had been killed
earlier in the war.
The methods of psychiatry have
improved very markedly in the pc
Rod Of time between the end of the
last war and the present one and
these cases have been treated with
considerable success by these new
psychiatric methods. 1t is we'll to
