Care of Good Mental Health
As a mother concerned with i
the health of your children, you i
probably know lots of facts about (
vitamins and exercise and the
amount of sleep that youngsters
should get each night. And as a 1
citizen concerned with your com
munity, you probably have ideas
about public health—sanitary
conditions, school health pro
grams, quarantine laws, and so
forth. But now ask yourself seri
ously—how much do you know
about mental health? Mental
health, people assume, is best
taken care of by not thinking
about it too much—and mental
illness is an ugly subject which
no one wants to think about at
all. When we do think about it,
legend, fear and ignorance often
take the place of information.
What happens because of our
neglect of this important sub
ject? First as individuals, we
may refuse to recognize our
. problems, and the resultant emo
tional conflicts sometimes grow
{deeprooted, crippling us so that
i we fail to realize our full capaci
ties. You’ve all fcnown honor
students, or gifted children,' who
never rose above mediocrity in
adult life. Or the failure to face
and overcome our difficulties
may lead to actual illness, ex
pressed in hundreds of unhappy
forms. Second, as groups, we shut
j away and forget about those who
are mentally ill, and by our fear
ful refusal to consider their
| problem, we deprive these people
! of the care and treatment which
; might return them to society.
Which brings us to the alarm
ing fact that mental illness to-

day “is the most serious medical
problem facing our nation,” ac
cording to a new booklet called
“Toward Mental Health” (Pam
phlet No. 120, put out by the
Public Affairs Committee). “One
.out of every 22 persons will spend
part of his life in a mental hos
j pital,” the pamphlet states. “One
lout of every 10 persons in the
i United States is emotionally or
mentally maladjusted and needs
(treatment for some personality
i disorder. Nervous and mental di
sease take a larger toll than in- i
fantile paralysis, cancer and TB
combined.” Then the pamphlet
poses this question, “How can
we cut this toll?”
One way to help, we feel sure,
is for every citizen to be well
informed about the problem.
And one of the easiest ways we
know of to get the facts is to
take a few minutes to read this
little book —Public Affairs Pam
phlet 120, “Toward Mental
Health,” prepared and distribut
ed by the National Mental
Health Foundation. The book
tells the story of mental illness
in simple, factual fashion. “This
is a story about people you know,
says the author in his first sen
tence —“Nervous people like Jim,
moody people like George, lone
ly people like Mary—people who
{have cracked under the strain
of living.” Thus the book takes
1 away the feeling that mental ill- 1
ness is a dark mysterious horror
remote from everyday life. The
common psychoses and neuroses,
their possible causes, their warn
ing signs, symptoms, and treat
ment are explained in terms of
ordinary human beings, instead
of extreme clinical cases.

Correspondents rate the De
troit Tigers as the team likely
to come in second, or at worst
third, in the American circuit,
trailing the brilliant Red Sox by
a wide space. The solid, compet-,
ent Tigers have all it takes to {
win a pennant except that vital
spark. It is thought that the ab
sence of Hank Greenberg will be
keenly felt. He used to provide
the spiritual lift and drive.
It’s a little early, but fight pro
moters are eagerly watching a
16-year-old heavyweight . . .;
Vince Donnelly of Minneapolis..
The boy now stands 6 feet, 3
inches, and weighs 235 pounds.
... When he grows up he should
really be something. Perhaps an
other Jess Willard. Most of the
giant fighters, however, have
been slow and awkward, easy to
hit. Vince boxes well, it is re
ported, but he has not met any
real competition yet.
London will be the scene of the.
j 1948 Olympics, unless something
pretty drastic comes along. This
seems rather definite now. The
British Olympic Organizing com
mittee, in a semi-official an
nouncement, has made it plain
that nothing short of war could
cancel arrangements now.
Paul Schrieber, Boston Red
(Sox pitcher, has been paid SBO,-
000 for his hurling—over a 10-
year stretch. He is batting prac
tice pitcher, whose jobs is to
i throw ones that the boys can hit
1 for sure. His salary is $5,000 a
year, but he has been cut in on
$30,000 in World Series shares
i, . .six times with the Yankees,
{once with the Red Sox.
Basketball teams were com
posed of 15 players, something
like volley ball, back in 1909,
{when Dr. James Naismith was
working out his new game.
Boxing fatalities are causing
considerable concern in fistic
1 circles. According to The Ring
record book, which lists accom
plishments of some 4,000 proses-
I sional boxers, there were eleven
■ deaths and 100 serious injuries
■ in the United States last year.
> So far this year <hree men have
■ died from injuries incurred in
fights. Officials are blamed for
i letting men with long losing rec
lords, mostly by kayos, continue
’ Ito compete.

TOO YOUNG
> “I see you’re letting your little
boy drive your car.”
“Yes, he’s still too young to be
trusted as a pedestrian.”
