AID FOR MENTALDY SICK

Yale University announces the

- appointment of a professor of psy-

chlatric nursing. The creation of this

department in Yale heralds the first

such professorship in any university
nowhere.

Yale comments that with increas-
ing understanding of the causes and
treatment of mental disorders. there
has come a demand for nurses quali-
fied by special preparation for this
csceodinglg important and interest-
ing work.

That phrase ”increasing under-

‘ standing of mental disorders." offers

food for thought.

A generation ago, the mentally
sick man or woman was s. shunned
person. a family disgrace. Such a
dismce that old pioneers tell of

. many a home with a hidden. secret
room built in the attic or shed. a
room with heavy bolted door and
barred windows where the house-
hold's mentally sick person was kept
in secrecy for long years until
death released him.

“If he were only dead instead."
was the cry of the parent of the
mentally disordered child.

More than a remnant of this old
complex remains even today. “He's
crazy as a loan" or he's a crazy nut."
spoken in rollicking contempt. sym-

tlblinoo society‘s attitude even today
towards the mentally ill person.

.. But the pcpularising of mental
disorders through alienists or psy-
chiatrists called into courts on most

. any case today. is doing much to
shed new light on “craziness." to

‘iuake people regard the “crazy nut."
as a sick person. and to make
families of such persons lan-
‘glilsli in less shame and despair
than before.

The psychiatric nurse. available
for call just as any nurse is available
for physical distress. will do much
we towards abolishing this com-
pies.

for him. cooking his meals. washing
his clothing.' Mr. Applegate ‘rc-
pcatcdly promised to pay "her for
whatever services she performed for
him.‘ but died before making pay-
ment. The court decided that Mr.
Kleincrt should be paid from Apple.
gato's estate for all of the work done
by Mrs. Kloinert and pointed out
that the scrvrces were performed in
and out of the husband's housc':
tllfii. lllcy were of 'thc sumo Jilnd as
a. wife performs in the household
of her husband as a part of her duty
as wiva and were 'so interwoven us
to ccuctllutc an entire and indivis-
iblo contract'; and that the law gtv.
ing a married woman hur earnings
in any employment carried on sep-
arately from her husband has no
_.iplicatioii.in this also."

Husband and witc- Manta Differ

The auto theory that gives the
husband the ownership of his wife's
services gives him the right to sue
for the loss of lhoso scrvrcos. if she
is injured or killed. but the wife has
no corresponding right to sue for the
loss of liL'l' husband‘s services to the
home. his companionship or the de-
struction of his ability to support
her.

The difference between the rights
of the wife in her husband and
those t the husband in lilo wife are
illustra ed by tho iollowing doci«
slons: .

"While riding in a bus on the road
from Metucheu to Perth Amboy.
Mrs. Emma C. Buutel. a married
woman. 31 years of age. was very
seriously Injured when tho bus col-
lided with a motor truck. She was
made a. cripple for life and that the
injury to her nervous system was
very sovcro was apparent from
the fact that at time of her trial her
hair had turned completely gray.
She sued the busowner. Alex Fal-
ktrnstrom. for damages for her pain
and suffering. while her husband
sued him for llle deprivation of his
wife's services and for the expense
he had incurred. Mrs. Beutel was
awarded 828.750. while her hus-
band was given 85.000."

Common Law Unchanged

There ionic corrc...ondlng right
given to the wife to sue when her
husband is injured and hence no di-
vision of the damages as there is
when the wife is injured. Butdhc
husband is entitled to all damages:
For instance: .

Mrs. Thor Toblacson brought an
action for damages claiming that
her husband has Non recklessly
run down by an automobile and per~
manoutly in: red and deprived of
his reason. be use of which she loot
the benefit of his support. comfort
and society. .The court pointed out
that only the husband may sue:
that the common law recognises no
right in the wife to damages when
her husband is injured: and that
New Jersey has left this situation

Daddy Kingfisher
And Ma ‘LOok Long
For Right Nest

BY ARTHUR H. PACK
President. American Nature Ass’n.

When Daddy Kingfisher and his
good wife first began to think wist-
iuliy of a ,llltlc nest and some
bright-eyed babies. they hunted long
for just the right sand or gravel
bank.

Finally when they had selected a
perpendicular bank that appealed to
them. they burrowed into it horizon-
tally four to va feet a sleeping
apartment.

At the end of the nesting burrow
they scratched out a. round little.
bowl-like hollow. and to line this
nest and make a cradle for. their ex-
pected babies. they disgorged count-
less fishbones. and on these undi-
gcstod fish bones. the little mother
deposited her pearly white eggs. sur-
prisingly large in comparison with
her slselSomctimcs six eggs were
laid. c ambitious mothers even
laying many as nine. The king-
fishers usually start their housekeep-
ing in May and in about two weeks
their hearts are gladdcnod by the ar-
rival of their family. Those babies
have an enormous appetite and the
parents have to go fishing early and
late.

It is interesting to watch a king-
fisher scanning the water as it polscs
above it. Suddenly it darts head
foremost out of sight. Au instant
later it appears triumphantly with a
fat. vii-luring minnow in its beak.
which it bears away to its nestlings.
' Kingdshers winter from Virginia
and Kentucky to South America. but
return north in the i or part of
February. In appearan e they are

 

nised.

From ancient times comes a
pretty myth to hlch we owe our
word "halcyon" nd the expression
"halcyon days." This was the name
given to the kingfisher by the an-
cients. 'l‘bsy behaved it built its
nest upon the sea. and during the
incubating period had the power to
still the turbulent waters. There-
fore it was beloved by the gods.

As Another Woman Secs it

The aptnsss of the heading of

ent after reading her contribution in
tonight's issue for it is probable that
she is in, one woman in Norwaik
who sees in Mrs. Corson's attitude a
subject for ridicule.

While Mrs. Wood exerclscs‘r un-
deniable intellectual gifts on sub.
jects of general interest. one could
read or ignore with about equal
pleasure. It would seem. however.
that her mentality is better fitted to
discuss politics than morals.
