The question would scarcely be worth answer ing but for the fact that there seem still to be a number of embittered women who insist that men are in terested only in sex. The uncon scious basis of this idea in most cases is the feeling that physical love is incompatible with tender ness and understanding, where the truth is, neither can attain its full development without the other. The man who is secure in his knowledge of his wife’s affection will feel a love in which physical and spiritual elements are harmoniously blend ed. Are men capable of true love? formed into words. The stammer er, under the influence of fear, anxiety, or conflict “regresses” (or goes back) to the sort of noises he made as a baby. Such a return to an infantile or childish way of meeting situations which we find too much for us as adults is typi cal of neurotic symptons. Does the stammerer become a child again? Answer: Yes, says Dr. Leopold Stein of the Tavistock (Psychiat ric) Clinic, London. Speech, he tells us, begins in the baby—and in primitive man—with clicking sounds, grunts, and groans, fol lowed by rhythmic babbling which is gradually slowed down and Does criticizing others “sharpen your wits”? Answer: Not if what you mean by criticizing is fault-finding. The one object you can have in ferret ing out weaknesses and faults in others is to draw attention away from your own, or to excuse your self as better—or at least, “no worse”—than they are. But "crit icize” should mean "judge” or “appraise,” and trying to form a fair and understanding estimate of others is not only first rate men tal exercise but essential to suc cess in living and working with them. The one “catch” is that you must first understand how your own mind works. LOOKING AT RELIGION By DON MOORE | KEEPING HEALTHY Enlarged Tonsils Can Spoil the Voice By Dr. James W. Barton r r IS HARD to understand why parents with at least as much brains as the rest of us continue to let their youngsters go about with enlarged tonsils and adenoids, which takes all the musical tone out of their voices. We speak of such children as talking through their noses, when as a matter of fact the nose is blocked by adenoids and enlarged tonsils so that they cannot use the sounding board of the voice—the sinuses. You can produce this flat note in your own voice by closing nos trils with thumb and finger when you speak. If the nose is well ventilated, the sinuses will be ventilated also and the full round voice will be pro duced. An X-ray expert states that he examined the X-ray plates showing the sinuses in the head of the world’s greatest tenor of mod em times, Caruso, and they were unusually large and perfectly clear. This, of course, accounted for the great volume and resonance of his magnificent voice. Family physicians have advised many parents to have the tonsils of their children removed, even when there is only slight enlarge ment and no infection, because of the possibility of severe tonsillitis, then rheumatic fever followed by heart disease. Tonsils should re main in the throat until the age of puberty unless infected or so greatly enlarged as to interfere with breathing. In “Modem Medicine of Cana da,” George R. Gordon, Birming ham, Alabama, suggests that in the following two conditions the tonsils should always be removed. 1. Interference with proper breath ing, swallowing or speaking. 2 Def inite evidence of old or chronic in fection of the tonsils, particularly repeated attack of tonsillitis. Tonsils should be removed be tween attacks if possible. Too often tonsils are removed because they might be causing infection when an examination by a throat special ist would show tonsils to be free of infection. Tonsils are useful filters if normal, but dangerous if infected, aside from affecting the High blood pressure is the cause of heart strokes (coronary throm bosis) and brain strokes (apoplexy). • • • Lepers and sufferers from dis eases classified as leprosy need no longer fly from police and doctor. erne Never neglect the common cold as it may be the forerunner of othsr more dangerous conditions. We all have “brain appetite”— the appetite aroused within us by food’s smell, memory of its taste and its appearance. • • • Constipation may be a possible cause of appendicitis. • * • Many men and women suffer from neurasthenia — mental and physical tiredness. SCRIPTURE: Isaiah ?; 13:2; 25-26 30:1-17. DEVOTIONAL BEADING: Psalm 17. Trust God Lesson for October 23, 1949 Dr. Foreman S HOOTING WARS and cold wars were going on. A great whirl pool of international intrigue was roaring around and around, and Judah was in the midst of every thing. The star of the once-great em pire of Egypt was setting, and the star of the new and powerful nation of Assyria was rising. Judah was only one of 20 or more little countries be tween those giants. Some of the little nations were try ing to take advan tage of the disturbed situation by getting up little empires of their own. All of them were scheming and scrambling for a place in the sun. Some were betting on Assyria, some on Egypt; no one knew just what to expect, but every one was afraid. • • • Cowardly King, Bold Prophet I NTO ISAIAH'S little country of Judah an invading army was marching, and the hearts of king and people trembled “like leaves in the wind.” Little Judah was being invaded by a combination of two ambitious powers, Syria and Israel, either one larger and strong er than Judah. Isaiah had to go out and try to calm the mind of the King. It was of no use; it was clear that King Ahaz did not believe the prophet But Isaiah was right nevertheless. The foreign army that looked so big would not win the war. The alliance that looked so frightening did not last. It could not last, because God was against It. Military men and others too find such things hard to believe. Is not God “on the side of the largest battalions"? Is not “Git thar fustest with the mostest men” the one and only recipe for victory? Nevertheless, the prophet was right. In fact, whenever a prophet raised a banner inscribed. Trust in God, it was not likely to be at a time when things were going smoothly in the world. That banner most often appeared in times of trouble, of darkness and dismay, of wars and invasions. • • • Leagues Don’t Always Last The situation had a different angle, later on. The Syria-Israel invasion collapsed, just as Isaiah said it would. But still the little nations jockeyed and maneuvered. It looked like a death-grapple be tween Assyria and Egypt, and every nation wanted to be on the winning side. So it was a great time of treaty-makings, of pacts and agreements and alliances. Isaiah changed the form of his message to suit the changing times, but the core of it was still the same. To King Ahaz he had said: Don’t be afraid of hostile alliances; trust in God. To King Hezekiah and others he said, in effect: Don’t put all your hope in alliances; trust in God. Egypt will fail you, any al liance you form will melt away in time. But God will not melt away. You can depend on him. Now in our time the situation is strikingly like what it was in Isaiah’s day. People today are tempted to put their trust in what is big and imposing. Big nations, big armaments, big armies, big alliances. Men once put their trust in the League of Nations, and it died (of cowardice and dishonesty, among other things). Millions put their trust in the Axis, and for awhile it looked as if the Axis powers would overspread the earth. But the Axis vanished under the blows of the Allies. • * • Are All Alliances Bad? T HIS does not mean that no al liance is good, or that no treaty can be relied on, or that the United Nations (for instance) is bound to collapse. What Isaiah is driving at is this: God has a Purpose to work out in this world, and the name of it is Justice, Righteousness, Peace, Love. Any nation or combination of nations, any pact or agreement or program, that goes against God’s purpose is going against the grain of things and is bound to fall. Pure “power politics” always looks impressive; bat the question Is: What Is the power going to be used for? If it is really for the benefit of mankind, God will bless it; but if it is selfish and unjust and against the peace of the world, it will fail, because the God of Justice has set his face against it.
