SCs “Love’or Perish,” by Smiley" Blanton, M. D., is a book you must read. If you have read it, then you should read it again. This is a tremendous book. It points graphically to a truth ev eryone must know if we are to survive. What an outstanding thing it is that the one skill which is needed the most in the world today is taught so little. Man’s great problems today are in the field of personal rela tionships. Industrial leaders and executives tell us it is hut lack of skill which handicaps sales and production, but man’s lack of ability to get on amicably with his fellow?. - We have so left the whole field of love to fiction and entertain ment that we have only a scant knowledge of its true meaning. Isn’t it strange that this most important of all abilities is not taught in our educational pro gram? There are no courses on love in elementary schools, high schools or colleges. No wonder we are at one another’s throats throughout the world, and that the home and marriage suffers. Even the church which is sup posed to be dedicated to teaching the Great Textbook of love, the Bible, says far too little about it. It renders lip service but not life service. We think of love as some emo tional experience which takes place between a boy and girl and leads thefn to get married. It Is hard for us to get love up off the level of sex. There are at least four mean ings of the word love: (1) Phy sical love, (2) Love of Compan ionship, (3) Love of parents for children and children for pa rents, (4) Spiritual love, the great sacrificial love. This veteran Christian psychia trist draws upon his long prac tice in case histories and shows the tragic results of the neglect of love and attention. Look about you. See and listen to what people do to get atten tion. Try for yourself how a word of appreciation to another gives them a lift. His last chapter on loveability points to the fact that if we are to be loved we must be loveable He writes, “To be a loveable per son in the* deepest sense, there, fore, it follows that we must cre ate an adult version of the good qualities originally evolved in the relationship between mother and child.” He says that if we are to be loveable we must learn to for give, have faith in God, the uni versal Source of power, and ac cept our own aggressive im pulses as a natural and normal part of life and learn to direct and control them.
