1926 and 1927 and at short inter
walls.
II should be mentioned that
during the early days there were
capable men who could conduct
services for the congregation in
most acceptable manner. Among
them was Captain F. Q. Maxson
on duty at this station. His inter-
est in the church and his leader
ship proved most helpful to the
little flock, and kept the spark of
Presbyterianism alive in the COM
munity.

! The Presbyterian Church laf'
Key West was born in the City
Hall. The little congregation then
obtained the use of the Masonic
Temple where services were held
by visiting clergymen and during
the brief passionate of the Rev. II.
II. Newman in 1912. Upon the ar
rival of the Rev. John McWill-
isins as pastor in 1914, services
were conducted in the Harris
School until 1924 when the
little chapel was built on South
Street, the present location of the
manse,
AS early as 1915 the officers of
the church were planning for
building. They reported at that
time that they had sufficient funsi5l
for the initial payment on lott
However it was not until Febru-
airy 1924 that the church lot was
purchased from Mr.. and Mrs,
Henry l.. Thompson at the corner
of South and Whalton Streets for
the sum of $4,000. With the help
of the Home Mission Board and
under the able leadership of the
Rev. p. w. Sinks, the first little
chapel was constructed and was
ready for occupancy early in 1925
when they invited the Presbytery
to meet in Key West.
The little chapel proved ade-
quate until the arrival of Rev. A.
de Barrett in 1927. The congrega-
ton then began planning for a
more commodious building. Early
in 1928, IA April, two lots were
purchased from Mrs. Fiorrie A.
Tynes, a widow, on White and
Washington Streets for S3,000.00.
The Home Mission Board was in
terested in the island city and
with their assistance the present
church building was planned and
built at cost of $l2.000.00. II
was dedicated Is November 1881.
The facilities of the church
finally proved inadequate for the

To Get Public HEARING

A proposed plan to correct the
dangerous pedestrian situation at
Connecticut avenue and N street
NV. will be discussed at public
hearing in the board room Of the
District Building at 8 pm. to-
morrow.
A plan Of channelizing traffic
at that intersection has been
under consideration for some
time. and has the approval of
the Commissioners. One Of Its
features is proposal to extend the
street car platform across N
street at Connecticut avenue. thus
blocking traflc to some extent
but providing additional safety
for pedestrians.
Many of the businessmen in
the area have approved the plan
but property owners in that sec
ton fear that the value Of their
property will be decreased by ex-
tending the streetcar platform.

vehicles and traffic, with the aid
Of charts and maps. will explain

MENTAL HYGIENE
by ANITA DICKINSON
Psychologist

0SPOAAACAA4 S4gA4So4441 - d.. SIOlH
The goal of the division of
mental health may be more
obscure. Actually mental and
emotional discomfort are so
closely allied to physical i'll
ness that no modern medical
unit or team tries to function
effectively without the coun-
sci of a psychiatrist and the
services Of psychologist, psy-
chiatric social workers and
nurses.
Over fifty percent of our
hospital beds are taken by
mental patients. Among those
who apply for medical care
only, almost half are suffering
from emotional illnesses. Ten
percent of our war casualties
were psychoneurotic. One per-
cent of our population is
feeble-minded. The increasing
prevalence of psychosomatic
illness in our culture is alarm
ing. The stresses and conflicts
and insecurities of modern ci-
vilization may be at the root
OF mental and emotional
breakdown in the 10th CEN
fury. Or it may be that we are
just now becoming aware of
the real source Of discomforts
that were diagnosed different
ly in the past. We have GER
tainly not reached the end of
our research in body-minded
relationships. At present we
must take all known factors
into consideration while
studying the health needs Of
our community.
We know now that some
mental illness can be prevent

hygiene agency to learn the
sources of organic psychosis in

functional discomfort seems
almost philosophical it is, in
