THE CIl'lLU'fe SIDK OF IT
By Alice Jmlsoil l'eiilo
It was a long rainy afternoon, and
Leonard, having exhausted his toys,
told mother he was going to pretend
to bo the minister and pay her a call.
With an umbrella from the hall
stand hung over his arm and a palp
of spectacles without glass askew
across his nose, he sat down In the
chair opposite her.
He talked about tlra weather, the
coming church bazar, Mrs. So-and-so's
rheumatism and the like. More and
more Leonard warmed to his role.
"There is something I have been
wanting to ask your advice" about for
a long time." said mother, suddenly.
"You know my boy, Leonard, don't
you?" Leonard nodded his head sober
ly, and his mother went on, "Well,
ho Is a fine boy. but so often he's tcr-

ribly naughty." ;
"You don't say," said Leonard. (
"Yes, really. He comes late for
meals. He wont go to bed when It's
time. He teases and whines after he
has been told 'No What do you think
I ought to do about him?"
"I'll tell you what the trouble is,
madam." said Leonard. "That boy
can't ever tell when you mean .what
you say when you're just talking.
Sometimes you scold him for doing a
thing, sometimes you don't. You can't
blame him for fussing and trying to
get his way. I'm very much afraid
that your troubles with Leonard are
your own fault."
"Perhaps you aha right," said moth
smiling. "I'll try to do better.
Thank you so much for your help."
j "Well, I must be going," said Leon -
ard, who apparently felt there, ha
I been enough of this. 'Good-bye.

VNBl'ktDEMKG ONE'S SELF
Patients frequently come to thfc
doctor, as they put it, to. unburdeQ
themselves. This is a practice useful
In many ways both to the pattent
and to the physician.
The physician, through, such con
tacts with the patient, Is better able
to understand him when acute Ill
ness arises. The patient, on the othet
hand, frequently finds relief from be
setting Ills and problems through
"talking It over" with the doctor.
There is, however, another form of
"unburdening one's self" which has
a different sort of motive, and which.
Is a very plague to the doctor, and
a trial to the patient.
In it the patient seeks escape from
soma exceedingly uncomfortable sit
uation and carries to the physician
complaining of some symptom com
plex. , i
Should the unsuspecting physician
make an earnest attempt to cure the
patient of his complaints, either he
will find himself balked on every step
of the way, or the patient will de
velop a new set of symptoms to tafcs
the place of those which have been
"cured." . . 4. ,
For such a patient does not really
want to bo cured of his symptom.
To be cured means to be confronted
once again by the very uncomfortable
s'tuation from which escape was
sought by way of physical illness.
The histories of such persons are
most disconcerting. It Is not long
before; the physician -discovers the
neurotic clement In the disease pic
ture. f ,
i , Should the physician then Inform
his ' patient that the physical com:
plaints merely mask emotional and
psychologic disabilities, he Is liable
to bring down wrath upon his own
head, or what is perhaps as bad
for the physician and worse for the
patient there will be change In
doctors.
-t Every physician knows of such, won
dorhig .patients and, knows. .hat, It?is
exceedingly d If f lculty If, . not- impossi
ble, to cure one unwilling to be
cured.

Averill Says Nv
Cause Fbr Alarm
... 6ALEM, Ore., Apr. 1 (Special)
"Investigation of the report of ap
plication for a receivership for the
Missouri State Life insurance com
pany in the courts of Missouri, which
Appeared In the press, has convinced
Insurance Commissioner A. H. Aver
111 that there is no occasion for alarm
on the part of Oregon policyholders
or the public In general; and in his
opinion, which is borne out fey the
'examination reports and recent fi
nancial statements on rile in his of
fice, the company Is solvent and In
sound financial condition, having
transacted business in this state for
the past 23 years in a manner satis
factory to its policyholders and to
the insurance department.
Commissioner Averlll, In ti tele
phone conversation with Joseph B.
Thompson, superintendent of Insur
ance of the state of Missouri, was
reassured that there is no basis for
ttio attack which was raade by a dis
gruntled stockholder who owns only
five shares of stock in the company.
It lis not only Commissioner Aver
ius oeslre to reassure policyholders
that their interests are not endan
gered, but to warn the public and the
insurance fraternity In pnrticular
that to use any untrue statements
that In effect injures any individual
or organization is not only extreme
ly unethical, but Is unlawful. While
the commissioner feelB sure that the
responsible people In the Insurance
business in this Btate will use ev
ery effort to discredit any rumors,
there are these who, for personal gain
or with malice aforethought always
uppermost In their minds, need to
be warned.

Toddling after his workbound
father. Gerald stopped to play about
the 250-foot drill hole yesterday
morning. Its maximum diameter is
about a foot. He fell In and with
his knees doubled up and his arms
pinned above his head, wedged 26'
feet down. There hj stayed until vol
unteers and minerF of the Trl-statfc
lefid and zinc district got him out
after a frantic battle to fierce sqlld
rock.
"Hurry daddy, take me, take me!'
The Utt'.j boy called out as his res
cuers, working in small squads, near
ed success.
"Gee. but he's a gritty one," cried
"Daddy" Collins, young mine pros
pector. ' .
"God lovb yo'ul" sobbed his blufr'
eyed mother, with her baby at last!
in Ivor arms.
First efforts to drag the bnby to
safety with a rope were futile. A
pick and shovel brigade moved quick
ly to sink the parallel shaft. A steam
shovel was wheeled Into play, but it
balked at the rock. Th:n a com
pressed air drill was found, and shifts
of two and four men, working with

was dug into the drill hole. Tearing

baby with infinite caro to the shaft.
Dr, Pinnell, Dr.: P. L. Wormlngton
and Dr. Prank Merrlwether, tho lattor
head of the . bureau of minus clinic,
rendered first aid. .
Fresh air, warmed electrically at the
first chill of dusk was pumped to
Gerald. Gas fumes were feared. Light
and telephone lines were set up. Self
