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

untrue scandalous items? A.
Steve Clow, editor of the Broad

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. The
tunes played and danced to are
those that were popular when
the celebrating couple were on
their honeymoon. This year's
"Silver Wedding Medley," call
ing for the hit songs of 1932
includes such ditties as "Broth
er, Can You Spare a Dime?'
"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.
Fishing
A remarkable section of this
country from a fisherman's
standpoint is the area around
Orlando, Fla. Within a. radius of
50 miles of Orlando are 15,000
lakes! These include Lake Apo
pka which has been called "The
World's Most Dependable Bass
Lake."

Psychosomatic Illness
The matter of psychosomatic

Body," by Dr. Flanders Dunbar,
who explains how emotions
cause certain physical reactions,
and in "Are Your Troubles Psy

M.D., a book that explains fully
