Asking Queries from clients. Q. Was the 'Battling" In the name of News About Books The Medford Public library has just received a copy of the book, "Home Care for the Emo tionally 111," by Herman Schwartz. From this book basic physical and psychological knowledge about mental health can be gain ed. It tells how to cope with neu rotic individuals, what to do when a "nervous breakdown" threatens, when to keep the pa tient at home, and when com mitment to an institution may become necessary. The author warns, above all, never to un dertake the sole responsibility of nursing the emotionally dis turbed without professional guidance and help. Edith Stern Another book with the same purpose of serving as a factual, practical guide for laymen when mental illness occurs in the fam ily is Edith Stern's "Mental Ill ness; A Guide for the Family." The revised edition owned by the Medford Public library takes into account new discoveries psychiatry has made and new therapeutic techniques now em ployed. Dr. Alvarez, in his July 3 column in this paper, described this book quite fully'. "A psychiatric Primer for the Veteran's Family and Friends," by Alexander G. Dumas, M.D., tells families and friends what they can do to help those whose injuries are of the mind and emotions and nerves on their Pins Presented, Officers Installed By Gold Hill Lions Gold Hill New officers were installed and several pins award ed at a dinner meeting of the Gold Hill Lions' club and their wives recently in the Gold Hill Grange hall.

Steve Clow, editor of the Broad way Brevities magazine, was sentenced to imprisonment in the Atlanta, Ga. Federal prison. Not, however, for printing un true items but for using the mails to defraud. Stogie Department Hazel Dawn was featured in the farce titled "Getting Ger tie's Garter." That's what I said. A Jerseyite says Hazel appeared in a farce titled "Up In Mabel's Room" but never in the one about Gertie and her garter. He loses. Hazel appeared in that farce in 1921. Said Jerseyite will please forward one Pittsburgh stogie, carefully wrapped. Wedding Medley Playing a "Silver Wedding Medley" at 25th wedding an niversary parties has been quite a popular practice.

"I've Told Every Little Star," "Night and Day," "April in Paris," "You're Getting To Be A Habit With Me" and "Did You Ever See A Dream Walking?" Scotch Dinner In New York you can get a typical Irish dinner at Cavan agh's. , No matter what Irish specialty you mention they can serve it. But where in New York or any other city in this country can you get a typical Scotch dinner? One that includes Cock-a-Leikie. Haggis and Neeps and Scotch Woodcock? What follows is the menu of a typical Scotch dinner served at the North British Hotel, Edinburgh: "Shrimp Cocktail. Coek-a-Leikie, Supreme of Tay Salmon (Sauce Hollandaise), Haggis and Neeps, : Roast Sirloin of Elgin Beef. Al-: mond Potatoes, Peas in Butter, Scotch Woodcock, Coffee." ; Get it Right ! The most melancholy people in the world are the Danes and it is revealed by the fact that Denmark has the highest suicide rate in the world. So I note it said. That is wrong. Japan has the highest suicide rate in the world. Denmark is second. What ; country has the lowest suicide rate? Why, sir, it is Ireland. The ; average Irishman has many mel-1 ancholy periods but his sense of humor eliminates any thought of self-destruction.
