MIRROR Of Your MIND Wife And Sweetheart By Lawrence Gould Can your wife remain your sweetheart? Answer: That depends on several factors, but one of the largest of them is your basic feeling about “moral obligations.” For the dif ference between a wife and a sweet heart is that you are apt to feel it is your duty to love your wife while a sweetheart is someone whom you love because you want to. In so far as duty is associated in your mind with pleasurable feelings like secu rity and the approval of your par ents, you will be able to love your wife without mental reservations. But the more you grew up feeling that duty and pleasure are op posites, the more difficult it will be for you to feel romantic toward a person whom it is your duty to love. >• Is modesty ever instinctive? Answer: Quite the contrary. Natu ral instinct impels every child to aditiire himself unreservedly and to do all he can to induce others to admire him. It is not “lack of self- consciousness” that makes a small child love to parade himself un dressed—it is “vanity” and the de sire to attract attention. And as he grows older, he is no less eager to “show off’ achievements such as walking, talking or building a block- tower. This natural exhibitionism must be gradually controlled, but be careful that in teaching your child to do this, you don’t give him the impression that he “ought to be ashamed of himself,” mentally or physically. Can psychiatry be preventive? Answer: Yes, says Dr. Theodore A. Watters, Louisiana State Univer sity psychiatrist. Psychiatry is mov ing increasingly from the narrow, though important, field of treating mental illness to that of promoting mental health by the improvement of conditions, especially in the home, that cause neurosis or psy chosis, and of working to harmonize the medical treatment of the body with what is known of the mind’s needs. With its understanding of the motives behind /man’s behavior, psychiatry can throw light on all human relations, from the way a baby should be weaned to the un conscious reasons which make peo ple accept a dictator. KEEPING HEALTHY Head Colds and the Nervous System By Dr. James P»OR THE PAST few years, cases ^ of chronic head colds, dropping of mucus from nose into throat, coughing, hawking and blowing of nose have been believed caused either by infection or allergy to sub stances floating in the air or to cer tain foods. That these symptoms may be due to “nerves” or to emotional disturbances is now sug gested by Dr. Edmund P. Fowler, Jr. (Columbia University), in Psy chosomatic (mind and body) Medi cine. “The coughing, hawking and blow ing of noses at the theatre demon strates that postnasal drip can be caused by excitement and emotion al tension which cause overaction of the parasympathetic nerves in volving certain parts of the nervous system such as nerve supply to nose and ears.” That overaction of the parasympathetics is responsible for vasomotor rhinitis (head colds, hawking, coughing) is suggested by the finding that where the sym pathetic nerves were affected there was excessive blocking of the nose. W. Barton as well as excessive opening of the nose passages, due to emotional dis turbances. Dr. Fowler states that from this there is something more than constriction or partial closing of the nose passages to explain the general effects on the nose and body generally caused by emotional stim ulation to th^ autonomic (not under control of the will) nervous system. The pronounced changes in the nose due to psychic stimuli (emotional disturbances) suggest that many so- called colds are induced by , this stimulation. In Archives of Otolaryngology (ear and throat), Drs. Arthur F. Millonig, Harold E. Harris and W. James Gardner (Cleveland) report their study of the changes in the lining of the nose of 27 patients after the sympathetic nerve supply and six after parasympathetic nerve supply had been cut, in the treatment of various neurologic (nerve) disord ers. All these patients had swelling of the lining of the nose (nasal mucosa), difficulty in breathing through the nose and mucus.

The combination includes timothy, brome, red clover, Ladino clover and alfalfa, reports Walter Rusk, county agent of Huntington county. This legume-grass combination, he said, could profitably be used by farmers in other states. When plenty of fertilizer carrying nitrogen, phosphate and potash is used at seeding time and plant nu trients are top-dressed each year, this 5-grass mixture has yielded as much as 3 tons of hay at the first Five acres of the 5-grass mix ture on the Norman Thompson farm near Huntington, Indiana. cutting on many farms. One farmer in the area insists that 5 acres of the mixture provides more forage than he previously got from about 60 acres of pasture. Norman Thompson, who farms near Huntington, Indiana, reports that he grazed 27 head of cattle, in cluding 16 milk cows and 11 calves, as well as 100 sm^l pigs and 16 sows for 5 weeks on a 5-acre pasture seeded to the 5-grass mixture. Rusk points out that the well fer tilized legume-grass mixture is do ing an important soil building job, besides giving farmers a preferred position in forage supplies. The tap roots of the legumes drill down deep to keep the soil open and well ventilated. They add organic matter to improve the soil’s tilth and drain age. Large quantities of organic matter in the soil mean increased water-holding capacity. They also make it possible to get the best possible efficiency out of every ton of fertilizer used. Improved Ever-Bearing Strawberry Developed Strawberries from your garden from June to October are possible with the new, improved ever-bear ing strains. Although the biggest crop comes from mid-to-late June, plants will continue to produce enough for breakfast cereal and din ner desserts until frost arrives. Planting should be done as early in the spring as possible. Said to thrive in any type of soil, is a new high-yielding variety de veloped by plant breeders of the Westerhauser Nurseries of Sawyer, Michigan. Called the “20th Cen tury”, this ever-bearing type is said to fruit in about 60 days and pro duce large, sweet, full-flavored ber ries all season long. Seasoned gardeners recommend picking off the first blossoms so as to enable the roots to develop plenty of strength. They point out that while you may lose the first few fruits, you will gain in much bigger yields later in the summer. Grand Champion Iowa State College won the grand championship of the 52nd International Livestock Show with a 1,240 pound Aberdeen An- gno steer, Toby. In 1950 Toby won the reserve championship and now Is the only steer ever to return and capture the higher award. Shown with Toby are (left to right) Chief Judge A. D. Weber; W. W. Prince, president of the Union Stock Yards; Jess C. Andrews, president of the In ternational Exposition; and George Edwards, herdsman for Iowa State College. Time of Plowing Should Depend on Type of Soil Ohio State University farm ex perts report type of soil should de termine whether a farmer plows his land in fall or spring. Tests ovfer a 14-year period indicate spring plowing is preferable on light soils. If plowed in the fall the ground has a tendency to become compacted by spring. Chi heavier soils tests show late fall plowing gives as good or better granulation of the sol] than spring plowing.

DEVOTIONAL. READ mQ] Matthew 18:24—28. About Face Lesson for January 20,1952 Dr. Foreman T AX collectors and customs offi cers In these days are highly respectable men. They are not (offi cially) popular; but every one knows they are necessary. What they col lect is fixed by law, and they get no commission on their collections. They j~ live on a salary al- i so fixed by law. If | any one feels i “gouged” by taxes he never accuses | the collector, the fault is somewhere else. Now in Palestine. I in the time of Christ, it was dif ferent. Throughout the gospels the name “publican” or, as'translated in present-day English, “tax-collec tor”, is evidently a name for a mean man. Jesus himself used pub-, licans as examples of the lowest level of society. The reason was this: In the Roman system of tax collection, the privilege of levying taxes in a given district was “farmed out”, that is to say, offered at auction. The highest bidder was given the franchise, and then he, or men he hired, would proceed to collect all the traffic would bear. Palestine at that time was under the Romans, and the Jews had the army of occupation with them year after year. What the tax ‘collectors did was to turn over to the Romans ! what the Romans wanted, and everything over and above that amount went into fixe collector’s strong-box. , a ’ • w • A Christian’s Job O NE day Jesus just said “follow me” to one of these men, named Matthew, and the man got up and followed'him. So far ax we know, he never set foot in his office again. Very likely, as a 'great preacher has suggested, this was not the first time Matthew had seen Jesus. Fea sibly they had had conversations before, out of business hours. The! preacher goes on to suggest that Matthew may have come to'loathe his job, but never have seen just! how he could leave it. Be that as it ma] understood quite well that he conld'nOt be both a publican and a follower of Jeans. This raises a question: Are there occupa tions today which a true Chris tian cannot follow without sin? There was a dope peddler one night sitting on a stone wall outside a New England church. Somehow the Spirit of God blessed the sing ing that night, for one of the hymns sang its way straight into that man’s heart, and that very hour he threw his packet of dope away and became a Christian. He never went back to that business. We can all see that he was right; but are there other businesses also that cannot have the blessing of Christ upon them? • • • ' v *•’ * Whom Do Ton Follow? r [E story of Matthew suggests also that every one i* some kind of follower. Some people just “follow their noses”, that is, they just keep on in the routine of their lives, doing today what they did yesterday just because they have the habit of living in this way. Others follow an ambition, others a desire for revenge, others follow pleasure, others attach themselves to a leader (political, social or what not) and follow somebody else’s band-wagon. The tragedy of the Christian ^ church is that although every Christian, er rather every' church member, has solemnly promised to follow Jesus Christ, they don't all follow trim, by any means. They ge right on follow ing habit, or pleasure, er ambft>' % Hen, and they do net ask (as Matthew most have asked) whether these things are snob as Christ can bless, or net. In spite of Jesus’ plain statement: You cannot serve God and Mam mon (the god of money), people go right on serving Mammon in spite of their Christian profession. • • • About Face! r [E trord '’conversion” means simply “turning around”. It means turning an the way around. When the sergeant says “About Face!” it won’t do for the rookie to twist his face around, or to turn one foot. It’s all the way or nothing. Yet when Jesas ear Command er gives the command “About Face!” how many 'Christiana ’barely move a muscle! The church is too well loaded with half-converted people, foey are turned around enough to go to church, but the rest of the week they are headed just the same way the world is headed. What we need is more Matthews, converted 100 per cent •t tba Cka 1S61 hy ar ‘ arakas af NatlatuU Cai af.a^uj Smart 1 , New Frock For Junior Miss f.. „ $5! & vV*? f ft & ** ' ft\ lo. 5s #1 U M "im [ERE’S the type of frock juniors like to sew—new and smart and such pretty detail.
