TOWLES OLD MASTER TOWLE'S KING RJCHARO SMALL DOWN PAYMENT AS LITTLE AS $1 WEEKLY TURNER JEWELER Rutledge To Discuss Mental Health In Weekly Column SI ■Mi. : v- Wt r v-p Variety of Lovely Patterns To Suit Every Taste After a busy day at his work, does dad have a right to prop himself up in an easy chair and bury his head in a book or a news paper, or to enjoy his favorite radio or television show unmolest ed by the children? This is one of the questions Dr. Aaron Rutledge, of the faculty of Furman •University and president of the Mental and Social Hygiene Society of South Carolina, discus ses in his new coluhan, "Your Mental Health,” a weekly feature beginning in this issue. Designed as a public service feature, “Your Mental Health” is utilization of personality to the end that we might have more healthy and effective individuals, as well as a more congenial, healthy culture in which to grow and develop,” he states. Attention will be given to the prevention and treatment of de-' liquency and other forms of a social behavior. A problem of overwhelming concern is that of the defective or retarded child. The Society is dealing with the problem of alcoholism, said to be the No. 3 health problem in South Carolina, and is working constant ly to the end that hospitalization and other forms of treatment may be made available both on a pri vate and state basis, Dr. Rutledge Reports. The care and treatment of per sons suffering from mental and emotional illnesses, both in pri vate institutions and the State Hospital, is also being studied. Dr. Rutledge reports, with a view to the raising of standards of treat ment in this great field of need. Inquiries will be welcomed by Dr. Rutledge from his readers and, as far as possible, will be answer ed in his . weekly column. It is suggested that the column be clipped from week to week to form a scrapbook of mental and social health information of value in the home and for use as pro gram material by various organi zations. A graduate of Stetson Univer sity and the Southern Raptist dedicated to helping South Caro lina residents to find or maintain ! Theological Seminary, Dr. Rut- happiness through more abundant living. It will bring from week to week a* constant flow of informa tion aimed at helping to improve facilities for emotional health in state institutions, schools, com munities in general, and families in particular. More specifically. Dr. Rutledge states his goal is to help prevent nervous and mental illnesses by working toward the conservation of mental hygiene clinics and their professionally trained staffs. According to Dr. Rutledge, the Mental and Social Hygiene So ciety is committed to the pro tection and improvement of the institutions of marriage and the family, the first line of defense for our entire way of life whether viewed religiously, socially, eco nomically or politically. "We are working toward the preservation, development, and ledge majored in psychology of religion, with special study in bi ology, sociology, and preventive psychiatry. Before coming to Furman University, as director of personal guidance and head of the Department of Psychology of Re ligion, in 1949, he was on the staff of Central State Mental Hos pital in Kentucky for more than two years, where he directed an internship program in counseling for post-graduate students and led in substantial improvement of the state’s mental health program. An approved marriage counselor, Dr. Rutledge is a member of the American Association of Marriage Counselors, the National Council on Family Relations, the Groves Conference on Marriage and Fam ily Relations, the Groves Confer ence on Marriage and Family Liv ing, and of the American Sociologi cal Society.

State Com mission of Forestry and the U.S. Forest Service. Interesting and important facts about forest fires and the need for controlling wild fires are incorporated in the pro gram. This is the season of many wild woods fires which result in ex tensive damage and loss to every body. Everyone is urged to be careful with fire at all times and help prevent this, great loss. The woods you save may be yours- WHERE IS DAD? One of the most disturbing fact ors in family life today is the emotional absence from the home of the father-husband. We say “emotional absence” because he may be present physically, at least periodically, without playing a vital role in th# development of children, or the day to day hap piness of the wife. All too often the husband-father returns from the job, and with one end in a soft chair and the other in the newspaper does not wish to be disturbed until dinner is served, and after dinner wants to be left to television until time to fall asleep. About all the fam ily see of him is the passive car cass in the chair. Who would begrudge the old boy such leisure after a day’s toil? And yet there is a limit to how much of this a family man can afford. The Wife Look at it from the wife-moth er’s point of view. Entirely too much of the responsibility for children is being left to the moth er today. Dad is needed for more purposes than conception and the pay check. Her day of cleaning, cooking, sewing and riding herd on the children make his day look like a Sunday School picnic. At the most strenuous hour of a hectic day—children tired, hungry; noisy and irritable, and her nerves so tight they twang, with yet three hours before she can slow down— need we wonder that the repose of hubby or his yelling for quiet so he can relax becomes a source of annoyance to her? Little Girls A little girl needs to have a man active in her life. The first few years are vital in shaping the kind of wife she will be when she grows up. The way she will react to her husband will be de termined in part by the way she learns to give and receive af fection with dad. She needs a dad who is strong and masculine, yet tender, af fectionate, and patient, in qrder that he and their relationship may become healthy models for the future. Little Boys In the beginning the little boy is just as close to mother as is the daughter, but soon he begins a series of swings away from her toward dad, trying to become like him. He tries the role on for size, and then swings back to mother for a period. Soon he “identifies” more completely with dad again, and each successive cycle makes him a little less dependent upon mother and a little more like dad. But what if dad isn’t there when the boy wants masculine com panionship or a he-man hero? There is little choice but to iden tify more strongly with mothe?, who, as best she can, fills both roles. He becomes “like” the one with whom he identifies most, whether mother or dad. Most of the “unmanly” 1 traits found in young men can be traced to such origins. • One primary source of alcohol ism is the overly dependent na ture of young men who were never weaned psychologically, w er e emotionally castrated, never learn ed to carry their own weight as men, and simply transferred their dependence from mother to the escapism found in a bottle. (To be continued next week) Best way to tell you’ve reached middle age is when your wife tells you to pull in your stomach and you already have.
