Dr. Danielson stressed that kindess and understanding on the part of the nurse are of the greatest importance in treating a mental patient, and said the nurse must constantly apply "mental health principales." He briefly outhned the var ious types of patients, listing them as anxious, self-sufficient, c'emanding or hostile. The doctor stressed that the nurse is in a "key position" for the observation of a patient's responses. Dr. Danielson went on to say that it is hard for the normal person to keep in mind sub jectively what it means to be a mental patient. These persons experience a world which is un real, he said, often feel suf focated, rebellious and resent ful, and experience "utter,, des perate and unrelieved loneli ness." "To be a mental patient means to be removed from the human race and to view oneself as not quite human," he said. They must be made to feel loved and anted, he said, and given hope arid courage. Dr. Danielson spoke of the nursing shortage, particularly of the shortage of nurses for psy chiatric work, and said profes sional nurses now number 8.600 in mental hospitals, with a few more psychiatrict nurses doing private duty, and that this is but 2.2 per cent of the total number of nurses in this coun try. He added that nursing schools are now including three months of affiliated nurse train ing in psychiatry, which is a great step forward but does not mean any appreciable increase in nurses for mental hospitals." Dr. Danielson was introduced by Dr. Edward Sickels. who serv ed as master of ceremonies. Miss Frances Thrun sang, ac companied by Mrs. Kenneth Brown.

Little Goblins Will Love Fiesta Specialist Says Broiler-Fryers Good October Buy Corvallis Fried chicken has always been a springtime favor ite but Oregon consumers -an now enjoy broiler-fryers the year around advises an exten sion specialist from Oregon State college. According to Miss Zelma Reigle OSC marketing special ist, broiler-fryers are especially good buys during October be cause there are about one-fifth more of them on the market now than there were at this time last year. Oregon fryer growers have increased their production about one-third this year to sat isfy the growing demand for the succulent young birds. , To help the food buyer save money, she suggests filling extra freezer space with broiler-fryers while prices are low and saving 5 to 7 pennies on every bird by purchasing whole instead of cut up pieces.
